I'm a huge fan of Jamie.
His first series is what sparked my interest in cooking, and when I left my previous job they bought me his book - The Return of the Naked Chef. We've bought/been bought almost every other one since.
Like Rhona I find his recipe's and style simple to follow (handful of this, a bosh of that and so on), far less daunting for someone 'starting out'. He 'cut his teeth' under the far more enthusiastic Genaro Contaldo - and he certainly isn't past his sell by date.
How many other chefs have set up a charity, or campaigned to the level he has to get our children eating better food - or set up accessible 'schools' for people to go and learn how to cook for themselves.
Jamie - you're alright by me mate.
