Marco's team to save day for Moyles's Rachel

Temperamental Hell's Kitchen chef Marco Pierre White has offered to send his team to do the catering for Kidderminster's Rachel Jones, the producer of Chris Moyles BBC1 radio show.

Rachel, aged 35, who went to Wolverley High School and Kidderminster College, is due to marry her fiance, Mally, in Kidderminster but was left in the lurch when her caterers dropped out.

When mentioned in an interview with Chris Moyles breakfast show newsreader Dominic Byrne, Marco Pierre White offered to do the cooking if he was in the country at the time.

He surprised Byrne and listeners by agreeing to step in. If he was not in the country, he said he would send his team.

He suggested that Hell Kitchen contestants Ade Edmondson and pop singer Miss Dynamite could be sent there.

Byrne said to White: "Rachel's getting married towards the end of this year. She's having a nightmare getting a caterer. Would you like to do it or do you know anyone who can?"

Byrne joked: "It's not in London, it's in Kidderminster, the Paris of the Midlands."

White replied: "I'll tell you what I'll do for her, if I'm in England I'll come and do it for her as long as it's just the food. If I'm not in England I'll send a team to do it for her.

"I wouldn't say it if I wasn't serious. She'll have the best wedding. Trust me.

"I'll bring the crew, Niomi and Ade. I'll tell them: 'You've got your first gig."

Producer Rachel was surprised by the celebrity chef's offer.

"Wow. I'm really shocked," she said. "I'm just worrying how much he will charge!

"That's amazing. Can you imagine, Marco Pierre White in Kidderminster?"

Jones is part of the Moyles team which has taken the breakfast radio show's audience from 5.5 million listeners a week in 2004 to the current level of 7.3 million.
