IF Triple D was a UK show who or where would you recommend?

I'll start with John's growing empire in Brighton

Lots of different venues but I would have to put Ed (Judge) as host, i think he is the only one i know with the appetite!!

But of course we would have to have a knowledgeable UK host, although I'd have backed Ed (by reputation and scurrilous anecdotes on this forum) more for MvF.
Hopefully should this ever come to pass they do a better job than the farce that was UK Iron Chef.......American "with it" slang doesn't work quite as well with a posh "Home Counties" accent. If you're jolly well on my wavelength old chap.

[eater of food]

MvF challenges would be fun to do occasionally, but Triple D is pretty much the dream job.

The problem with MvF is the premise of punishment behind it. As soon as you're eating to prove a point or to win something rather than for the enjoyment of eating, the glory is gone. Everyone gets full eventually, and eating beyond being full is just uncomfortable.

On the other hand, I do have a large appetite and am liable to get a little bit lustful with food sometimes, so presenting Triple D would be an orgasm of an assignment.
