Keith Floyd was a restaurateur and TV chef who produced many cooking shows, including Floyd on Fish and Floyd on France, for the BBC and Channel 5 and published many books combining cookery and his travels. Famous for his distinctive bow tie, he talked, drank and cooked whilst imparting his knowledge of classical French cooking to the nation in an unpatronising way.
The food books continue with the legendary Keith Floyd, of fish on boat fame. He's got a great sense of humour and raw chaos I'm truly envious of but you get the sense that there was a reason so many things fell through for him. And that possibly the quantities of alcohol consumed were that reason.
