Fancy being a judge on TV?
Hi Everyone,
I have been contacted by Liz from optomen, they are filming a show which basically involves a couple of celebrity chefs taking each other on and they are looking for judges. The judges don’t have to be anyone that has competed, could just be someone that likes BBQ. Requirements are below.
From Liz
“The date we have confirmed for the BBQ show is Thursday 20TH October. People will be required to be at the studio from 8.30am – 2.30/3pm. As it’s the BBQ show I would expect a few delays during that time as we’re not used to dealing with BBQ’s in the studio, so I’d advise all potentials to keep the afternoon free. We also arrange transport to and from the studio and a small nominal fee for all judges. I would also need to meet people face-to-face next week just for a quick chat and to ask a few BBQ/food related questions on camera to show the producers, not for broadcast or anything.”
If you are interested please email Liz liz.hetherington@optomen.com
Good Luck and more importantly have fun!
Toby

Oh dear. Might expect it from Tom Kerridge, as he's into all that fancy indoor cooking
but boiled ribs from VW
Will have to try to catch the show, as I usually like these Perfect episodes, nearly as much as Man V Food
Cheers
