Yes--you know what you like even if you can't make it yourself.

I think he's wonderful! It's said that he's the only person in the UK who sounds posher than the Queen!:)

No kidding! I'm convinced he eats derision for breakfast, judging by the sound of his voice :D

No disrespect to our brethren across the pond, but... this guy seems waay to full of himself.

I think the "fresh set of eyes" perspective is what is most needed. Removing yourself from something you've stared at for 20 minutes-2 hours loses all perspective and ability to look at it objectively. Someone who can't accomplish the same thing is still objectively able to tell if something is good or not.

Yeah I think this is pretty much one-sided.
