It was a program well worth watching and good fun. Another world-renowned chef specifying dexter beef, brilliant.
On the internet, searches for Dexter Beef are always about the same, which is slightly ahead of Angus Beef each month. Then you have people searching for Wagyu and Kobe, and that category is many times all the other breeds and types of beef added together.
But in the half day since the program, searches for Dexter beef tripled and were actually ahead of Wagyu/Kobe, which is very rare indeed. I would think that will continue for some time yet. Nice one.

We ejoyed the kick as well, most cows who had a complete stranger touching their udders would've reacted the same. A good bit of telly we all had a giggle.

Dexters looked great Penny - real credit to you and the breed! Looking forward to the next installment.
Thanks for all your hard work promoting the breed!

Loved the rather vocal opinion that one of your cows had to her new mum.

I was late for work this morning because my neighbour had seen this programme & wanted to tell me how funny Janet S-P getting kicked was. He thought it was excellent promotion for the breed, along the lines of "you'll be able to charge more for them next year". Fingers crossed he's right!

You can watch it on this link with a bit of luck.

If it's exactly as the original programme, then the main dexter bit with Penny is after about 40 minutes or so.

The link works. Thanks Clive.
Anybody got any idea how to fast forward it to appropriate spot as running short of time to watch it all?

If you double left click on the grey strip below the picture, between the o & r of "word" in the title below the grey strip, that takes you to about the right time, takes a few seconds to adjust, dont know how to speed up the ads at the beginning to get to the actual program though

Yes, it works except I still get ads. The dexters are 34 mins into the program.

I got so excited when Clive posted the link, but it says "the service is not available in my area" guess I can't access it from the USA. Can anyone else outside the UK get it?

Hi Carol
I'm in Australia and getting the same message too.

Yea, it'll be restricted to the UK probably. The program will go worldwide eventually and I assume they do that to stop people watching it before it has come out in their own country. One the the other programs came out in Australia a year later. It's on every week so there should be more to come yet I assume.
You could always fly over to watch it!

Well looks as though we'll have to wait on the other side of the world.
If it's shown here I'll tape it and fast forward to it... just can't bear that vile Gordon Ramsay... give me Jamie any day! :D

There's a thought, Clive. Top of the class for lateral thinking. Margaret.

I watched the finale of Great British Menu feeding the troops last night, so that will indicate how long before we get the UK content.
