You don't want to know

Oh... all right then.
He's a horrible man from Boston(?) in the USA and he's one of those TV personalities who doesn't actually seem to have any sort of talent for anything at all. He's got the most horrendous accent, a drawl that is basically a *very* posh New England accent.
He does crap tv shows such as 'Masterchef' a cookery competition for the ultimaltely pretentious and 'Through the Keyhole' where a panel has to guess the identity of a mystery celebrity from a tour of their house by the said Lloyd Grossman.
Basically his surname sums him up.
How's that for an unbiased explanation?

Pretty good. I am afraid that the T-shirts have been allocated. Though both through dodgy methods. Congrats to Orcus and Jeff.
I wish it was virtual greyhound racing. I love going to the dogs!

Well actually Masterchef is now hosted by the bloke with the scary hair, Gary Rhodes.

"virtual greyhound racing"
There's a game called greyhound racing usually played by drunken men - where they race around a predetermined course (in a pub?) without their pants wearing the wire from a champagne cork over their ... er ... their ... ah ... their .... "usually unseen assets?" as a muzzle - is THAT what you meant???
