I remember it well, because I was on the judging panel for the semi- nal of the BBC One series Gordon Ramsay’s Future Food Stars. Contestants were tasked with creating a recipe for Weekend, then preparing and photographing it – not an easy thing to keep a cool head about at the best of times, let alone on two of the hottest days of the year. They rose to the challenge admirably though, and gave us two fantastic dishes. It was tough to judge, but the blue team, aka Sam and Amy, were worthy winners.
