Local gay actor here used to do a show called Pieface about her at the Orlando Fringe fest every five years or so.

Might as well add Rick Stein and Keith Floyd to the "oh I always mix these two people up", for I do, too.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 26 March 2020 11:34 (four years ago) link
but isn't Rick Stein a charmless unreconstructed Tory prick* whereas Keith Floyd was a quite amusing variety of Tory wanker.
*I'm just guessing this - I have never knowingly watched him.
― calzino, Thursday, 26 March 2020 11:40 (four years ago) link
In my mind they are one and the same chef who enjoyed drinking way too much tbf
