Jamie Oliver Launching You Tube Channel

Jamie Oliver's new You Tube channel, Food Tube, is set to launch this evening with a live show.

The new channel which has been discussed for some time will launch at 7.30 pm GMT with Oliver himself cooking up some dishes and introducing viewers to some of the other people who will work on the channel.

The theme of this evening's launch is chicken and the chef is encouraging people to send their questions and kitchen queries.

Details of how the channel will operate are still not available but Jamie's army of food lovers over on his site are discussing the launch with much anticipation.
