Noel Gallagher has no time for popular British TV shows

Former Oasis star Noel Gallagher has revealed that he's not a huge fan of current television programmes and especially hates two British chefs' shows and in particular the popular period drama, 'Downton Abbey'. 

Speaking to the Radio Times about what he watches for entertainment, the 'If I Had a Gun' hitmaker explained that the kinds of things people seem to enjoy simply don't appeal to him:

"Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay. I don't cook but that's not the problem: I can't handle Jamie Oliver's worthiness and I can't handle Gordon Ramsay's attitude - if you make a bad omelette, it's like the end of the world. Who gives a f**k? I'm from the school of thought that one eats to survive; one cooks to be a smart arse."

"And I don't like any period drama -Downton Abbey, all that s**te. Men with wigs on."

Earlier this week, Gallagher also admitted there's a significant gap in the market for a televised music show and said he would love to see 'Top Of The Pops' make a return because there's nothing like it at the moment.
