Anthony Worrall Thompson

Medievally bearded chef Anthony Worrall Thompson--who looks like a smaller, kinder version of Henry VIII--has a dirty secret.

Unbeknownst to his legion of food-preparation-enjoying TV acolytes, Wozza has an unusual favourite food - Babybel cheese.

"It beats the crap out of all this other stuff," says Worrall Thompson, waving his arm over a tableau of fine dishes he has created.

"I spent years at catering college getting my NVQ, got a TV show, bought a big car, a caravan, so much Space Lego that I could retire and just live off the interest, but I still can't come up with a dish to beat a single portion of Babybel cheese."

Televised kitchen rumours suggest that AWT's arch rival Gordon 'Rustic' Ramsay is close to creating a Babybel-beater.

A source insinuated as much, saying, "Gordon's introducing the cheese-market to the concept of whimsy. This is going to be the biggest thing since Primula abandoned prawns."

A spokesperson for prawns was unavailable for comment.
