I've never seen the entire episode with Pepin, just a
few clips. The main thing was none of the panelists
could believe that someone (then) so young could have
been in that post.

They had fake Pepins who were all much older and portrayed
the typical arrogant French chef stereotype.

I hope you can catch it in the random rotation.

Nyssa, who wouldn't mind seeing it again either
