The Delicious Miss Dahl

Just watched the TV show. Very disappointed to see it was just the usual lifestyle-porn-by-numbers that we've all seen a hundred times before. I couldn't see how it differed in any way from Nigella. The usual cynical female fantasy stuff of shopping in Notting Hill and having effortless makeup and wonderfully casual flower arrangements. Pretty sure the kitchen was a set too. My claim to Sophie Dahl fame is that aged 19 I once worked as the assistant to the stylist on a naked photo shoot of Miss Dahl soon after she shot to fame. My job mostly entailed holding her dressing gown in between takes. It was tough, but I held in there and delivered a sterling performance.
