After upsetting the locals round here with his haughty pseudo good life claptrap 'Q' list celebrity Chef HFW has moved on to upset the wurzels elsewhere.
See this article from http://returnofthehitch.blogspot.com/2007/11/now-we-know-what-mutley-does-for-living.html
"Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall isn't the most popular man in Dorset. He recently went to Axminster farming suppliers Mole Avon, picked up a basketload of goods and walked to the front of the queue. A farmer who had been patiently queuing shouted out "Hey! What are you doing? Get back!" Hugh replied "Don't you know who I am?" When the farmer suggested that he didn't much care, Hugh abandoned his basket and walked out.
FYI: The main gripe about Hugh in the village currently is that the scones he sells,costing one pound each, are not made by him or on his farm, but in Bridport".

Fearnley-Whittingstall has been offered a cameo role in the next League of Gentlemen Release a film “Keeping it In the Family”…
FOOD FIGHT!
Mockney Jamie Oliver has incensed local TV celeb-chef Huge Fearnley Whittingstall by landing on Dorsets doorstep…
Apparently all is not going smoothly at the River Cottage money making corporation either so watch this space. The same source used words like “”””dictator””””, “”””fascist”””” and “”””chauvinist”””” obviously not describing the genuis himself, allegedly
I too have heard many a story that basically makes Huge Furry Buttkissfool out to be the moron we all hope he is. The way I see it is, he became somebody else’s problem when he moved to Devon. Good riddance, and Good luck to ’em!
We need a new celebrity chef for Bridport. Cameras everywhere…….
I watched him on ross show, and wondered why i didnt like him… and concluded that he seems to have no sense of humor at all… unlike you carlito eh?
Anti Hugh? Whats going on here is a bit of celebrity jealousy methinks. Whilst he is no drinking partner of mine, in The Shaved Cross or any other promoted establishment, his TV shows certainly put Briddy and West Dorset on the map and showed off some of our more colourful characters in a good light. His now locally mates seem to like him, and if I could get in front of a queue of doddering idiots by being famous I wouldn’t grumble. If he can make a success of Axminster he will really do well. We have to remember we don’t own this part of the world and 6 finger attitudes to blow-ins belong in a Dickens book.
There are many reasons why we dont like each other (marshwood 5) and envy is the one that always seems to get trotted out first (usually by young girls, you aint one by any chance are you?) What are we envious of? His looks? His bogus views on animals? his cooking skills?His ability to get up peoples noses? (well i admit that one is a plus) oh and i forgot.. the MONEY!!! But would you really want to be recognized in the street? A young friend of mine asked him “”””what is it like to be hated?”””” and he replied “”””Better to be hated than ignored”””” What do you think?
They need all your positive comments on th WDDC website. Although the Radio is doing a good job supporting them, do it officially!
now have to wait until febuary, strange i had to pay the fine within 14 days
Too many celebchefs/cheffettes drink too much water and it is a proven fact that sewerage water treatment cannot remove artificial hormones from the water.Therefore all celebchefs/cheffettes must be genetically modified by excessive water ingestion.Evershot and Atrim being particularly badly affected areas it would seem.
I believe this condition (being without a chin) in the upper classes is caused by never having to fold a sheet. I suppose (astra!) you have made your body a tomb for our delightful animal friends? have you a suggestion as to where the freaks and wierdos should hang out other than the center of town??
The canoe claimed to be looking for “”””a certain creek to be up, without a paddle”””” and West Bay fitted the description best.Police are issuing pictures of the canoe sporting a beard and are keen to talk to anyone who can tell them where the sad watercraft has been.It may have been masquerading as a skiff or pedalo in the area.
I will admit he has a point, though could not see his name? (dark side?) A middle road is usually the suggestion in these cases, but so hard for us to travel on that road,my steering is atrocious, i veer dangerously to both verges as the distractions are too delicious to miss,, but If i had a business I would indeed be hurt by anon comments, so although not part of this debate, i agree with his remarks. Party? can hardly wait, but what shall I wear? going out today to see if i can find anything suitable!!
