If you've been following this blog for a while you may know that I've complained about Saturday Kitchen (http://hardknott.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/saturday-kitchen.html) failing to give beer reasonable airtime. Generally, it is an irritation to me that TV food programs really fail to give quality beer any credence. This just isn't right.
Well, we've decided the only real way to combat the problem is to come up with our own alternative program that covers a little bit more beer.
We've done a couple of episodes and posted them on Vimeo. They may not be quite up to the production quality of the BBC, but we're only doing this as a little bit of a laugh, even if the message and subject has a more serious underlying principle.
We know these videos are a little on the long side. We filmed kind of ad-libbed and mostly unscripted. We can put a lot more effort into proper scripting, directing, editing and generally better planning if there is enough interest in the idea.
These two episodes took me three days to produce in total, so if you don't like them, let me know I'm wasting my time.
Please, feel free to comment and let us know what you think. We hope you like the general idea.
I've one more episode "In the can" - slow cooked belly pork in Cool Fusion. I've not started editing the footage yet until I hear what you all have to say about our work so far.
