The program irritated me so much that it triggered an idea that I've been mulling over for a few years.

I've been baking bread since I left home and a couple of years ago went on a bread making course here. They have a massive wood fired oven. It started as a hobby by an architect and became a business: there is a lesson there!

I bake every 2 weeks, using a Kenwood mixer and baking in an Aga. Flour? Mostly grown in the area between Oxford and Swindon, milled here.

With their mistakes and somewhat misleading comments the people on the BBC show, who are supposed to be experienced bakers, were clearly hamming it up to make a show..... and may have motivated me into hard labour!
