Our Ian and his "BOSH!" mate Henry were on the telly again today. Actually, it has been quite a while since they were last on. Today they were guests on "The Jeremy Vine Show" on Channel 5. During the live screening of this morning chat show programme, the news broke that "Prince" Andrew had been arrested by police on the royal Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
Fortunately, news of that arrest did not impinge on the "BOSH!" slot. Jeremy Vine was a nice host. He asked thoughtful questions and made Ian and Henry feel comfortable. It was a far cry from the time they were interviewed by self-obsessed Piers Morgan who seemed to be only interested in his own voice. Not the best trait for an effective TV host.
"More Plants" is their eighth book. It was published a week ago and as the title suggests it simply shows yet more ways of creating great, tasty vegan meals.
Ian and Henry have been on their vegan mission for eleven years now. It has been quite a journey. They even have their own Wikipedia page. Go here. Wikipedia fails to mention that they now have products in big "Tesco" supermarkets across the country - in both chilled and freezer sections.
Naturally, Shirley and I are immensely proud of what Ian has done in the last decade. We are heading down to London to see him and our grandson little Zachary tomorrow morning. Consequently, Friday's blogpost will be "scheduled" and that will also be its title.
Wonderful! As a fellow vegan, I am so happy to see Ian and Henry becoming even more successful.
ReplyDeleteSuccessful and creative -- great to see!
ReplyDeleteThe number of plants is huge so they have topics for a very long time.
ReplyDeleteYou have a good right to be proud.
ReplyDeleteIan and Henry have done very well with their business and writing.
ReplyDeleteYes, they've been doing very well and put a lot of hard work and passion into it all. And you have taken us along from the very start - thank you!
ReplyDeleteYou do know that you can create a personal account on wikipedia and edit/correct articles there, or even start your very own if you're so inclined. You could add the bit about Tesco.
Saw the new book was being released and thought of you. Congrats to him.
ReplyDeleteReading that made me get 'Bosh!' off the shelf and have a browse. And draft a blog post.
ReplyDeleteSomeone asked a vegan if they loved plants, and they replied, "no, I hate plants and love to imagine them screaming as I chop them up."
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new book. And you all have a lovely visit.
ReplyDeletePS I loathe Piers Morgan because, you're, his interviews become all about him.
Well done, Henry and Ian! Not only are they doing well personally with their cookbooks and appearances, they are doing good with the promotion of more plant-based meals.
ReplyDeleteI can understand how proud you are of them.
ReplyDeleteI checked out Bosh on instagram and some of their recipes look very good. We can't get their seasonings here though which sucks.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely visit with Ian and Zach.
Well done, Ian and Henry.
ReplyDeleteWell done. I can't watch that sort of programme though- not because of Mr Vine but some of the views make me rage and I cant afford a new TV. 😂
