The Naked Chef The Naked Chef The Naked Chef was a BBC Two television cooking programme starring Jamie Oliver. It originally ran for three series plus three subsequent Christmas specials, and was produced by Optomen Television for the BBC. The show was Oliver's television debut, and was noted for its use of jumpy, close-up camera work, and the presenter's "Mockney" dialect and relaxed style—for example, Oliver would tear up herbs rather than chopping. The programme was credited with inspiring men to cook due to Oliver's "blokey" approach. Each episode took its theme from a social situation or event in Oliver's life, such as
Only Fools and Horses ""Plonker"", meaning a fool or an idiot, and two expressions of delight or approval: ""Cushty"" (from the Roma word for "good") and ""Lovely jubbly"". The latter was borrowed from an advertising slogan for a popular 1960s orange juice drink, called "Jubbly", which was packaged in a pyramid shaped, waxed paper carton. Sullivan remembered it and thought it was an expression Del Boy would use; in 2003, the phrase was incorporated into the new Oxford English Dictionary. Owing to its exposure on "Only Fools and Horses", the Reliant Regal van is often linked with the show in the British media. The
