Totally inadequate man. Perhaps he was unloved as a child. He craves attention but he certainly isn’t very lovable now.

The chicken must be rock hard when you get it. Chicken wings have no meat on them and thighs are usually more inexpensive than legs or breasts. But even with the chicken included, it's a lot of money to spend.You get the chicken thighs and wings, she made a big thing about it being skinned to save you all the hard work
I think Craig and Will have their shirt sleeves taken in so that they fit 'snug.' Peters probably pumps up his arms before he appears. At least he and Dale are not wearing coordinating coloured tops any more.

I used to watch when Andi Peters was on, in the hope that one of the BA's (or a fellow presenter) might lose their rag with him and he'd abruptly exit the show horizontally. Loathe the bloke; in my view he's talentless, rude and arrogant and it isn't to Q's credit that they put up with him. Peters: the man who rose to "fame" via a TV broom cupboard, co-presenting with a puppet. The puppet had much more talent and charisma than him, though. And who decided Peters was a food/cooking 'expert'? I wonder what qualifications he has?
He was runner up on a TV cooking competition show quite a while back. And that's about it! I feel the way you do about Simon Wilson. I'd like to see someone presenting to tell him the truth: that he is an ill-mannered tw*t and call him out on whether he designs his jewellery, or someone on his team does it. I think it's the latter.

I find M&S Indian food is very good and reasonably priced. Mind you I feel like that about 99% of the stuff in an M&S Foodhall !
You're on, CC!Oh please let me do it

Just as I thought about Peters...didn't spend years learning his craft, instead he short-circuited it by being a runner-up in a TV cookery contest and that makes him an expert. Yes, right.....
Well, of course we defer to everything he says, then....I know what you mean about Simon...I haven't watched one of his presentations for yonks, but he could be very abrupt and didn't take prisoners if he thought the presenter had said something stupid or asked him something he'd already said. I clearly remember him being very dismissive of Jill (and I think another presenter, too?) on Q some years ago; his withering comments to Jill put me in mind of the late Paul O'Grady in comedy mode, quite acerbic. It came across as pretty obvious that Simon wasn't a happy bunny and the tension was palpable. Comments like that are fine on a comedy show, but not on a jewellery presentation. I'd be amazed if at the time Q didn't get a number of viewers' comments about it.

Stuffing his face again with the overpriced food with the exorbitant p&p. The items he really likes, he says he will take home. Why not pay for them, like the rest of us have to?

I have read comments about the not so great Andy Peters very few of which are complementary and how right they were.I have flipped channels just now and hit some show with the man himself with Pippa.Total chaos hyper, taking one over the other and mixing cocktails. Perhaps they have downed the lot? What a pain this guy is, unwatchable, totally overpowering .Never mind having to put up with his presentation style if you were interested in buying but who would pay these prices?

As you probably know, there is a whole thread just about him.

Yes he has got the thumbs down from a very wide audience!

Managed about five minutes of him last night with Pippa. He’s dreadful - really full of himself and totally disinterested in the products. He also looked a mess - unshaven and dressed like he was going down the pub. Awful!
Quite a few 'well known' individuals think they deserve preferential treatment (freebies of glasses and fashions). It's the 'Do you know who I am?' syndrome. On the other hand, if the food will be binned after the show, better for someone to take it home. But does he have to brag about it?

In the case of Peters, I would think there are an ever-decreasing number of people who do know who the heck he is (was). He worked on TV in a broom cupboard with a puppet that had more life than him - there you go, I just wrote the CV
.How that man gets time on ANY channel I cannot fathom (oh, cancel that - yeah, I think I can fathom it..).
IMO he is rude and talentless and has elevated talking over other people to an Olympic sport level. What are his qualifications for being a food presenter? He flits from one thing to another IMO, which doesn't make anyone an expert at anything. Get rid.
He's probably training to be an MP.

I used to watch the food programmes but I don’t bother now because they always show the same brands for 99% of the time. I prefer to buy my own Christmas food which doesn’t cost an arm and a leg as well.
The fact that AP, who thinks he’s “it”, fronts the shows is another reason that I no longer watch.

My Christmas treats will come from M&S. Far better value for money. At least you can see what you’re getting and it’ll be good quality. As I’m going to family for Christmas dinner I don’t have to worry about that.
