His television credits include MasterChef, Countdown, and The One Show, and Jay also present food panel show, The Kitchen Cabinet on Radio 4. Jay also presents his own podcast, Out to Lunch, in which he interviews stars in a fabulous restaurant setting.

He’s also an accomplished jazz musician, and tours regularly with his band, the Jay Rayner Quartet. Jay, thank you for joining me. Pleasure to be here. God, it makes me sound very busy, doesn’t it? I think you’re a bit lazy. Yes, yes, yes. I’ve got a very low boredom threshold, is what it is. I can tell! And people sort of say, “How do you fit all that in?” I say, “Well, I’m not doing all of it at the same time.” So if you just work your diary, you can get quite a lot done. Didn’t you ever just fancy standing at a lathe and doing a regular job? I sometimes think of that.
