James Martin was back on our screens today with a new episode of his ITV show<\/p>\n

James Martin<\/a> found himself in a bit of a pickle with a guest on his ITV<\/a> programme, James Martin’s Saturday Morning today (October 18), following a change in the show’s time slot<\/a> and his recent candid admission<\/a>, reports the Express<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred while James was assisting fellow chef and old friend Galton Blackinston in preparing a scallop dish.<\/p>\n

As he chopped some tarragon for Galton, James asked: “Chief, do you want these sauced or not?”<\/p>\n

“Yeah, yeah. Yes, I do,” Galton responded, opening one of the scallop shells while the other two remained closed.<\/p>\n

James stirred the tarragon into the butter sauce as Galton spooned some onto one of the scallops.<\/p>\n

“Not too much,” Galton advised the viewers at home, while James quickly removed the shells from the other scallops.<\/p>\n

“I was just matching the tops. Do you know what I mean?” Galton attempted to clarify, to which James retorted: “Well, it’s going well so far.”<\/p>\n

“Shut up. Let me concentrate,” Galton told him, continuing to spoon out the mixture.<\/p>\n

Both James and Galton chuckled at their banter as they completed the dish, featuring golden pastry, succulent scallops, butter sauce and crispy lardons.<\/p>\n

After finishing the dish, Galton confessed: “I’m delighted, that’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”<\/p>\n

Their friendly ribbing continued throughout the programme, with Galton later quipping: “I was going to say you lost a bit of weight and then you turned to the side.”<\/p>\n

James responded with a cheeky quip: “This is the last time we’re seeing Galton, but anyway.”<\/p>\n

He proceeded to wrap up the programme, telling audiences: “That’s all we’ve got time for today before I go to the gym.” He added: “I can breathe out now.”<\/p>\n

The programme welcomed guests including seasoned broadcaster Mariella Frostrup and culinary experts Jonathan Phang and Galton.<\/p>\n

Mariella discussed her illustrious broadcasting journey, which included reporting on Live Aid, and reminisced about first hearing the iconic 1984 charity anthem Do They Know It’s Christmas<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Speaking about the tune, she revealed: “There was something about that record. Hearing Bono’s voice. It still gives me goosebumps. It just felt like an incredible song.”<\/p>\n

Mariella elaborated on how the track represented “something much bigger than ourselves” and noted: “We were sure we were going to change everything.”<\/p>\n

She acknowledged it stood in sharp contrast to today’s climate where people feel helpless to create meaningful change amid current political circumstances.<\/p>\n

The broadcaster has expanded into the food industry alongside Mary Berry’s chef daughter Belles Berry, with the duo co-writing the cookbook Menolicious which explores nutrition during the menopause.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jonathan revealed details about his former role representing top models during the 1980s, including legendary figures like Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks.<\/p>\n

When questioned about whether he longed for the glamorous fashion industry, Jonathan candidly informed James: “No. I’m glad it’s over.”<\/p>\n

He has since established himself as an accomplished food author and chef, demonstrating his comforting chicken broth recipe.<\/p>\n
