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
The French Chef Chef. As part of its growing Twitch Creative content, Twitch.tv streamed every episode of "The French Chef" over a four-day period starting on March 15, 2016, to launch its new food channel. Twitch reported that almost a million viewers watched the marathon. Two companion cookbooks were written along with the show. "The French Chef Cookbook" was a show-by-show breakdown of the black and white series, while "From Julia Child's Kitchen" was a somewhat more ambitious work that was based on the color series but also added considerable extra material.
