was this his early shows, or after he was on the wagon? i'm guessing the former.

he had a neat show in his later days where he'd make rich dishes more heathly, concentrating on 3 concepts. flavour, texture, and something else. lol, i forget. i'm good with the first two.

These are the original shows from the late 60's. He always had a glass of wine and all the food was rich. Before he had health issues and turned to healthy cooking. He was so funny back then. I wonder if he remembers filming those shows LOL

Yes those are funny shows, my grandmother used to watch them and simply loved them. He would be about half in the bag by the end of most of these too. When he stopped drinking he also lost that edge he had on these early shows.
