Jamie Oliver seemed less than pleased when his cooking segment was interrupted by Ben Shephard.

While demonstrating a healthier twist on the classic Pot Noodle, the 49 year old TV chef was stopped abruptly by Ben. Both Ben and his co-presenter Cat Deeley were heard asking Jamie to halt, insisting it was time for the weather segment.

In response, an unamused Jamie retorted with sarcasm: “I can tell you the weather, it’s very wet out there,” prompting laughter in the studio as Ben aimed to keep the show on schedule.

During Thursday’s (26 September) episode, Jamie tore into a Pot Noodle to reveal its contents, following its viral moment on TikTok where people have been enhancing the instant snack.

Emptying it onto the countertop, he commented: “There’s nothing in here really. They are convenient, I get that and by all means have them but actually you can buy these little nests [he holds up alternative noodles],” reports the Mirror.

Highlighting the difference, Jamie continued: “They are two-minutes to rehydrate with boiling water and what we can do is have fun with it.”

He then elaborated: “You can go to the fridge with that concept of leftovers and waste and you can take the humble carrot and use a speed peeler, the cheapest gadget in the kitchen…”

Before he could offer his culinary tip, Ben interjected sharply: “Jamie, Jamie two secs, stay there, we’ll keep them waiting over the weather because Jamie is going to show you how you can pimp up your Pot Noodle without having to buy them.”

Ben then cautioned: “Because we’ve got to get to the weather so don’t go anywhere…” which was met with a sarcastic retort from Jamie.

Smiling, he quipped: “I can tell you the weather, it’s very wet out there and the sun’s coming out and it’s going to be wet again later but over to you.”

The host quickly corrected him: “It’s the local weather they need, not the national weather,” before television celebrity Cat assured viewers of the upcoming schedule.

Jumping in, Cat said: “The local weather is on its way and Jamie will be back, he’s going to pimp up those noodles no problem at all.”
