JAN MOIR: Cookin' With Brooklyn is not a traditional television show, but a series of short films that stream on Instagram to Brooklyn Beckham's (pictured left and right) 13.2 million followers - incidentally more than Jamie Oliver. One eight-minute episode that shows how to make a 'Brooklyn Special' bagel sandwich cost around £75,000 and involved a team of 62 people, including six camera operators and someone called a 'culinary producer'. Presumably he or she is there to eliminate any gastronomic or technical gaffes and if so - pass me that megaphone, please - WAKE UP AT THE BACK. 'Brooklyn is the birthplace of bagels,' states our hero in one sequence, which will be news to the Jewish communities of Poland in the 17th century who had them for breakfast most mornings. He enthuses about a little-known crunchy delicacy listed in an on-screen caption as Cole Slaw. Who he? Sounds like a trombonist who once formed a jazz trio with fellow Cole Porter and a merry soul called Old King. In every single cooking segment in the test kitchen - when Brooklyn is, say, crisping rice in bubbling oil or browning butter - the saucepan handles are turned outwards and I want to scream. Safety rule number one in any kitchen, domestic or professional, is to turn the handles of pots and pans inward so you can't knock them off the hob and spill something or burn yourself. We all know this, but neither Brooklyn nor the dozens involved in this production seem to have a clue, which says it all, really. Still, one of the quiet joys of life is watching an expert deploy their skills and craftsmanship; admiring the artisan in his atelier, the artist at her canvas.

That said, he already has equalled Mr Oliver in the number of Michelin Stars he has been awarded. 0.
There are currently 184 restaurants in the UK with Michelin stars, as well as hundreds more that have previously been awarded them. So, for example, Gordon Ramsay has 7 currently, and has been awarded 16.
Seems rather apt that a man who is being criticised for being longer on style and shorter on substance is being compared to Jamie Oliver...
