Celebrity chefs Maggie Beer, Curtis Stone, Jamie Oliver, Matt Moran and Shannon Bennett also shared their memories of Zonfrillo, with common themes emerging of his approachableness and appreciation of his mates.

“Jock had time for everyone,” Stone said.

“It doesn’t matter who it was, on a set or in his kitchen, he genuinely had a love of people. He would speak to the person that would make coffee on set the same way he’d speak to the director.”
