I heard a rumour that Firstdog has met him now. Is this true?

I’m sorry but this guy reminds me of that gourmand in the “Meaning of Life” you know the one who blew up

Love the guy - his passion is riveting to watch. Glad someone else noticed. He has such strong eyes, and love it when he enjoys a dish. I sit in anticipation of his reaction to what he tastes (good or bad).

Monsieur Preston is a star. I agree - he is a real find.

I remember a great line from Ab Fab about pics of journalists accompanying their bi-lines : “Not only do we have to read their crap, now we have to look at them as well.” Alas, it’s getting worse.

This youthful obese Marlon Brando with apologies to Marlon is ideal casting for the role of mediaeval court jester/food taster. BTW the cravats aren’t hiding the fallout of tasting titbits.

I must concur with Eloise that this man has an outstanding collection of cravats, unrivaled this century upon our television screens. Still, I see him as The Toad and would not be surprised if he begun to sample dishes with a flick of his 52 cm tongue, hence the neologism ‘toadulent’. Again, if he happened to pull the skin off his face and reveal he was actually an alien replete with a collection of cephalic tentacles, that would not surprise me either. At this point, I expect he would consume his fellow critics whole as well. First Dog, get drawing.

“She’s got some fantastic lift in the puff”.

*sigh*. Swoooooon.

If only he’d say that about me ….

Has anyone noticed the man puts the fork into his moth like he’s trying to win a 100m dash - or that there’s a famine, and he’s got the last morsel of food?!…or is it just me?

I thought gluttony was a deadly sin? Let’s hope the good critic doesn’t choke on something!

ps: He’s not that bad

Personally I love his assortment of little colourful scarfs that he wears each episode. The other night he was even wearing two different ones! and he has fabulous shoes. And hair.

Preston just looks like Oscar Wilde. Shame he doesn’t talk like him.

I’m in sticthes here. Every time I see the guy I flick the remote. He’s a ghastly apparition morphed from Lothario, Liberace and Lucifer! “Because I like you I swallowed it” is so Matt P its stomach-churning. Why do idiots like this end up on prime time TV? Who screens the F*wits? Thank heaven Mr Onthemoon can mirror them so aptly!

Good grief!! Watchable??
I’d rather watch paint dry, while having my fingernails pulled out.
