In a recent interview with The Radio Times magazine, queen of the kitchen, Delia Smith spilt the beans on what she realy thinks of her fellow celebrity chefs.

She revealed that she doesn’t entirely approve of Gordon Brown’s frequent bad language, saying “That’s not teaching. I like him when he does his recipes, but I’m not keen on his swearing.”

But Smith had only good things to say about Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver:

“Jamie is brilliant and has done more than anyone. I enjoy Nigella - she has such a passion for food.

“I don’t usually like seeing people eat on TV but when she does it’s sexy and it works.”
