Planet Cook is a children's TV programme on Channel 4 at some ridiculously early hour of the morning. I happened to find this out because my nephew wakes up ridiculously early and I am now living with him and his mother, my sister Katt.
It's a peculiar programme, it has to be said. It's called Planet Cook but the action takes place on an island - an island in the shape of a yeti's footprint (according to the makers, at least). It's presented by the geordie chef who used to do BBC2's Can't Cook Won't Cook (I forget his name) and children's TV favourite Dave Benson-Philips who portrays the pipe-playing 'yeti', and I only use the word 'yeti' because that is how he is described in the programme despite the fact that he is an unusual shade of peachy orange; has mint-green feet, hands and face; and has odd-looking ears that sort of stick out a bit like antennae.
The episode in question that I saw showed the cook and two young child actors making a 'monster hand' out of cabbage and fish as the 'yeti' looked on....
Oh, and Ruby Wax voiced a cliff called Roxy. The mind boggles!
