RESEARCH: GENRE RESEARCH RESTAURANT COMEDY



I've been researching some popular TV chef's which are resources to our film opening. Furthermore i have been looking at some comedy and drama shows, to which the characters in them could inspire our work.

This is an extract from Fawlty Towers (first broadcast 1975) This episode relate to our story line because of Basil being of a foreign region and not understanding his bosses orders. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-oH-TELcLE

I have used some inspiring chefs to reference our character (the sure chef) such as Heston Blumenthal 
This video is of Heston Blumenthal performing as his usual self as this weird and articulate, rather humorous person. We have incorporated his character into our sue chef character, to play this  weird and over exaggerated man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXhkTQy0TaIYou know you're a Hestonist if you...'
  • Serve snail ice-cream, bacon and egg porridge and parsnip cereal
  • Have lab equipment in your kitchen
  • talk about molecular gastronomy
  • Know what cooking sous-vide means
  • Put whole oranges in your Christmas pudding    
This youtube video is Jamie Oliver doing a classic meatball and pasta dish in 8.40 minutes  His clear and imprecise measurements inspire men to cook because he makes cooking seem masculinehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RH-eIQQprlg'You know you're a Jamie if you....'
  • Like pukka food
  • Bish bash bosh
