Young, funny, and a GREAT chef - what more could you ask for? Jaime's style is so original and his antics are sure to make this DVD a hit (as the show already is)! When you read recipe's out of a cookbook it's quite a bit different than actually watching them be made. For me, visual learning is best, which will make having this disc on hand a huge benefit. Jamie's a stud, and you just can't beat his style. Hopefully we'll see some more DVD's on the way...?!

I've caught an advance look at this DVD. I love the fact that he has such an informal style of cooking. There are no hard and fast measurements, just cooking by feel and instinct which is great! His show makes cooking for friends look like such an easy and fun process. If you've seen his show, read his books, or other videos, this is a great addition to your collection.

Jamie Oliver, hands down, is the most entertaining chef on broadcast television. I was completely entertained by this DVD. It allowed me to navigate from recipe to recipe, which was so nice to use when preparing some of his amazingly delicious and simple recipes. After watching this DVD I feel as though I could prepare any gourmet meal for any number of guests. And did I forget to mention how freaking adorable he is. I will admit the first time I watched it I could only focus on his adorable features and charisma and then I watched again and observed his unbelievable uncomplicated style of gourmet cuisine. Oh, and the recipes were great - basically fresh and healthy ingredients with a dash of this and dash of that - thats it. I keep hearing that he is known, as the naked chef News Flash sexy chef would be a more appropriate term. He has amazing energy and charisma. My only concern now is - WHEN WILL THE NEXT DVD BE RELEASED!!!!!

I first noticed Jamie Oliver after hearing the catchy theme song - by Leigh Haggerwood - that begins the 'Oliver's Twist' rollercoaster ride. This DVD contains the best episodes from the first series, full of Jamies enthusiasm and British charm. The recipes are mouth watering, and with all the vibrant colours and London life, it's a joy to watch from beginning to end. My particular favourite is the episode where his band Scarlet Division perform the theme song out on the street and Jamie gives it some on his drum kit. I think everyone will enjoy this DVD!

I love all his shows especially Oliver's Twist. Love the theme song, the concept of inviting friends to enjoy his food, and absolutely loved Jamie's kitchen interior in Oliver's Twist. I love his style of cooking where you don't have to be an expert to create a delightful dish. Everything he does is just magic :D

Truly recommended!

My fiance is just learning to cook and moving to London ... this DVD was the perfect gift since it gives the vibes of British culture while at the same time teaching how to shop and cook on the London streets. Great buy! She loved it.
