Hell’s Kitchen

Following Terry’s successful appearance on ITV’s Hell’s Kitchen, where he remains the only general public winner to date, he appeared on GMTV, Good Food Live, more recently his own ‘A Bite of History’ series and finally on Through The Keyhole with his own particular hero, Sir David Frost. It remains as Terry’s finest moment and Terry freely admits that was one of the highlights of his life.

‘A Bite of History’

Terry recently presented the highly popular historical food series ‘A Bite of History’ for Tyne Tees Television. Over the four programme run he researched, cooked and presented food allied to the north east of England during the Roman, Viking/Anglo Saxon, Georgian and last generation periods of the area. Terry particularly enjoyed taking the unusual dishes out into the street to test on the general public and getting its reaction to food they would not normally experience.

As a result of the popularity of this series the final programme has been submitted to the Royal Television Society for consideration in their annual awards honours.

There cannot be many people who would feel comfortable offering a dish to Gary Rhodes which contained instant mashed potato but that was exactly what Terry did when serving his signature dish, King Prawn Rockafella at the outset of Hell’s Kitchen and that down to earth approach ensured his victory with the British public.

Additionally Terry has appeared extensively on BBC radio commenting on food issues of the day.
