Have I got Nanta for you

Sharp-eyed fans of the BBC TV comedy news quiz Have I Got News For You will have spotted a still from Nanta just before the closing credits in the show which aired on 17 October.

Just after the final “caption competition”, the presenter is allowed two final illustrated one-liners. And the show’s researchers had unearthed a scene from the hit Korean stage show Nanta, which played in the Rose Theatre Kingston earlier this summer.

And the quip which went with it?

And I leave you with news that during an episode of Kitchen Nightmares the head chef of the Cantonese Garden regrets a heated exchange with Gordon Ramsay.

Clearly the First Lady’s ambition to put Korean cuisine on the global map has a way to go yet.
