eternal Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Oh wow! Wonder what he's going to cook? Look forward to seeing this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Just recorded the programme and Gareth is advertised. He is on with John Waite from Strictly. Are they both Yorkshire men? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 He is taking over the kitchen they just said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Well that was nice, he could promote the festival, they showed a pic of him and Missy. He said he would encourage her to go the 'proper way' in the music business. He knows the pit falls (people putting reality music stars down). And he cooked a nice steak sandwich. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 I managed to catch it whilst doing lunch. Loved it. Great fun. Gareth looked good.Think it was a good idea to show Gareth's speech coach too. Made for a nice relaxed atmosphere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Yes Khelda. You have summed it up perfectly. Think like you hadn't watched this programme before. It's good fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 There's the chance to revisit the programme again Here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValR Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Thanks Eternal, really enjoyed seeing Gareth live and good that they showed his speech therapist. There are still people who say that he put it on to get sympathy!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 I rewatched the programme again last night (and enjoyed it even more). I loved when the Rev Kate Bottley said how she had been on the cruise Gareth was on and went to see him and said " Best night I have had in ages". She said she saw him in the ship's hospital next morning. She said it was to do with the testing. Gareth said it may have been a hangover Was also interesting when questioned about Missy and her going into the industry, Gareth said he would be her manager (I suppose just as Gareth's dad has been his manager). I then watched the rest of the programme, which after the light heartedness as the beginning went on to discuss some serious topics sympathetically. Will definiitely tune in again. 18 hours ago, ValR said: Thanks Eternal, really enjoyed seeing Gareth live and good that they showed his speech therapist. There are still people who say that he put it on to get sympathy!! Yes who would believe it?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 It's interesting to see how Gareth's stammer and the way he (and Chris) handled it has caused this first interesting blog. Stamma on Twitter I think most people benefit from whatever suits them. Personally I think it perfectly acceptable for Gareth to have his speech buddy there on set with him It obviously allowed Gareth's humour to shine through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValR Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 I totally agree that there shouldn't be a right or wrong way to deal with a stammer, it's up to each individual and if Gareth feels more confident having someone to support him I don't think a speech therapist should criticise it. This is a really good blog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 It's interesting to hear this plea about there being more stammering on TV Re Twitter in order to make it more acceptable. I'm inclined to agree. There's a chance to sign a petition HERE for it to happen. (Not keen on them asking to chip in a £5 once signed. I haven't. There is the option to share in the confirmation email). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
