	~~Overlayed~~ graphics came from a [[Commodore Amiga]], which at the time was only equipped with a floppy drive. This meant that the closing titles had to be loaded one page at a time, and due to the graphical backdrop this also meant loading the backdrop too. For this reason the closing credits could often reach 3 minutes - enough time to load all of the pages and usually play the chosen track in full.

			A handful of sub themes appear, mainly as means for one of the presenters to provoke a reaction from the other. They are
			* Hairy carrots (carrots scraped rather than peeled)
			* Low cost supermarket ingredients ("they're not onions, they're little carrier bags of water")
			* Lard
			* Recipes with too much or too little detail (ingredients measured in handfuls, or mixtures of imperial and metric units)
