A bit of a golden balls up: David and Victoria’s son has launched a new cooking show
(Picture: Facebook)Out of the fire and into the frying pan? Not long after Paris Hilton’s madcap culinary wheeze, Cooking with Paris, saw its second series sucked up into the great extractor fan in sky, it emerges that Brooklyn Beckham has been drawn to the gas-stove glamour of life in a kitchen. His new show has the same frame as Paris’: a celebrity(ish) friend is invited over, Brooklyn cooks (ish) with their help, and hilarity — mild, mild hilarity, the kind that is really not very hilarious at all — ensues. Even the name is basically the same: Cookin’ with Brooklyn. Granted, the half-rhyme gets points.
Perhaps that’s what inspired the show; Brooklyn’s ability in the kitchen can’t have been it. Still, cooking is sexy and Brooklyn is here for it, so much so in one episode he tells his guest: “This is my road to hopefully becoming a chef.” The photography career, in other words, has been locked away in the dark room and a new path awaits.
