Culinary queen and TV presenter Delia Smith has revealed she never watches MasterChef and rarely looks at others’ cookery books because they annoy her.

And she hit out at the BBC cooking competition – hosted by Gregg Wallace and John Torode – for its criticism of contestants, which she said undermines her encouraging style for home cooks.
