After his stint in the BBC show, Chris said: “I was most concerned about not severing one of my fingers when cutting vegetables.
“Losing the finger wouldn’t bother me too much. What would bother me is how frightening it would be to the audience.”
Either way, cooking with Chris sounds like an experience.
He added to Radio Times: “When I cook, it’s like I’m on a date. I dim the lights, I put on Nat King Cole.

Ingrid Matthew died after being stabbed over 80 times[/caption]
A court heard her body was found in a pool of blood by her former partner and Matthew’s dad at the property in Leicester on September 11 last year.
Matthew had left the address in the Highfields area but handed himself in to cops in Peterborough, Cambs., the following morning.
He was charged with murder and went on trial at Leicester Crown Court.
However, experts agreed he had been suffering from a previously undiagnosed medical condition.

They agreed this had substantially impaired his ability to exercise self-control at the time Ingrid was killed.
As a result, Matthew entered a guilty plea to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
He was handed a life sentence yesterday and ordered to serve a minimum of six years and 226 days.
Detective Inspector Nicole Main, from the East Midlands Special Operations Unit, said afterwards: “Only Aaron Matthew can explain why he took his own mother’s life.

“I hope today’s sentencing can provide a degree of closure to Ingrid’s family and those to who she was closest.
“Sadly, no sentence given will bring her back and my heartfelt condolences go out to them as they continue with the grieving process to come to terms with their loss.”
Ms Matthew’s family spoke out in an emotional statement after the case: “Ingrid was a private person but a kind, vibrant and special soul.
“She was always happy, dancing and willing to help anyone in any way she could.
“She was completely selfless and we are devastated that she’s gone. Learning to live without her has become our new reality.
“We miss Ingy. We are grateful for everything she did to help her mum and others.
“We are so proud of how she always supported others and rejoiced in their achievements. Ingrid will be forever missed by family, friends and the community.
“We love her very much and hope one day we can come to terms with her passing.
