For some reason middle-aged men found Nigella’s new TV series especially gripping
Nigella Lawson was back on BBC2 with the first episode of her new series and this happened.
The celebrity chef is the only person we know to use black marigolds – apart from serial killers on Midsomer Murders, obviously.
Here’s what people made of it on Twitter. Well, the ones we can share at least.
The sound you hear is loads of middle aged men losing it at the sight of Nigella putting on black gloves #atmytable pic.twitter.com/kayN5agiY6

Has Nigella seriously just put on black gloves to handle some peas? #nigella

Still, everyone seemed glad to have her back.
You are all so lovely! Such kind and happy-making words. Hugs all round x
