The Chef Show (Netflix)
All of us have at least one widely disliked celebrity we secretly think we'd be friends with in real life. I actually have a few: all of the original Kardashian sisters, Mike Hosking (no politics chat over the barbecue thanks, but love a Peroni and watching the Warriors), but most of all, Gwyneth Paltrow.
In many ways I feel that me and Gwyneth are the perfect match. I would never, ever get sick of hearing about all her questionable lifestyle tips and tricks but I'm also polite and gullible enough that I'd end up fully believing in every single one of them. Who am I to tell anyone where they can and can't put a $500 jade egg (medical note: apparently those eggs actually are quite bad for you so maybe don't)?
The first episode of Netflix's new cooking series The Chef Show offers a tantalising glimpse of just how funny it would be to hang out with Gwyneth for an afternoon. Everything she says sounds both extremely sarcastic and deeply stoned, like when, halfway through grating an orange for some weird vegetarian stew, she turns to host Jon Favreau and asks: "What is this TV show for?"
