We made this video to help explain our packs app. Head over and give it a watch! bit.ly/3a1o1P8

I would LOVE to see a normal guiding a chef, the chef has to follow everything they say and can't give input... Horribly frustrating? Yes... Insanely entertaining? Heck yes!

"Do you have a food processor?" "I have a smoothie maker." Me, when I try to substitute things when I cook or bake. When I didn't have an oven, I baked cake in a rice cooker and turbo oven.

Remote Control Pass It On! Like PIO, you each take 10 minutes but instead of using that 10 minutes to cook, you're using that 10 minutes to guide the person. So for example, Ben guides Barry for the first 10 mins, then Jamie guides him for the next 10, then Mike for the next 10, and James for the final 10.

James: Are you going to do ravioli, tortellini? Mike: I'm not going to lie. You're saying Italian words at me, I've heard of those words before but I don't know what any of them mean. What about dim sum? 🤣🤣🤣

New video idea: Normal cooking One chef has the recipe but can't see the normal One chef can see the normal but not the recipe Chaos and shouting ensues

I've got to appreciate the effort of the multi-camera set up Mike has got himself going on. Looks a lovely plate of pasta. Also, Mike looks like he has the most beautiful home - matches his face. 😂 And James' arms look so good in that black t-shirt he was wearing.

"I'm not brave, I'm stupid" totally encapsulates all my experiments

The Sorted Boys finally know how the audience feels only being able to see the food but not taste it

i was ready to talk along to the intro, bUt jamie tricked me lmao

I love how James expected Mike to have a strong cheese when he's like one of the people who dislikes cheeses a lot haha

An idea: ben has to make a dish and send it to james. James has to try to recreate that dish, without knowing any of the ingredients and recipe. Can also be used for the normals

I lost it at "What about dim sum?"

This whole self-isolation thing has contributed to the strengths of the remote control series. Except more chaos! I love it!

The remote control episodes are slowly becoming my favourites I love them

James: *italian pasta* Mike: How bout dim sum? James: ._.

You did THIS at such short notice? Holy Moly well bloody done !

Lol, Now the chefs will know what difficult of a decision it is to decide the winner purely based on looks lol

It's nice to know that James wears the same clothes at work as home

Thank God Jamie's beard's back! Now he no longer looks like a kid that's been held back a dozen times 😂 Thanks for all the laughs, you guys are by far my favorite KZfaqrs! Xoxo

James' beardless baby face is so cute. He looks like a 12 year old crossed with a 50 year old

James: *does nothing* Also James: I am so knackered. 😂

Relating with James so hard right now. I’m trying to teach my friends to cook over video chat with self-iso. And they are so proud of themselves!!

"In Pass it on we would have ruined that" Lmao Barry knows how they are.

"I'm assuming you dont have a ringcutter" Me: just use a glass? Surely you have one of those

The new intro highlights all of Mike’s glorious moments. Beautiful. 😢

"Oh no, that's ok, I didn't want it in the fridge anyway" 😂 Also love that James is a "lean into the camera to take a closer look" person too! Makes me feel better :)

James: I'm thinking Italian Mike: So I can make dim sum then?

These two worked together so well. James calm, not preachy. Mike determined and willing to listen. In the end they came up with a good looking dish. This was also right up Ben’s alley as the dish was created and judged without tasting. I give it a 10 out of 10 as well.

I’m just expecting this video to open with James saying “alright, first thing we need to do is make a poached egg”

Can i just say; I love this. Even if the quality takes a major hit, i do love this style of video. Guiding a person from a remote location, making something without them knowing what, using some ingredients that they already have at home. Love it.

Even through a screen, James is as sassy as ever and I love it

This is a thirsty appreciation post for James in a dark T-shirt. *How does he look so good though, his ARMS?*

James just casually having modernist cuisine in the background. You guys should definitely make a video with it would be great

I love how Mike nods like "yeah! yeah! okay! I'm screwed!"

My fiancé and I are separated by the isolation at the moment and having cooking battles over video call is our thing! Might have to make pasta a category for us 🤔

James' deadpan sarcasm is one of my favorite things. "That's ok. I didn't want it in the fridge anyway." 😂

Best way to spend my birthday in quarantine: laughing SO hard at a Stressed Out Mike.😂😂😂

Oh! My two favorite Sorted men! I adore all of you, but I have a soft spot for Mike and his actual talent and dedication in the kitchen. As for James, I'm just a sucker for gingers.

this was actually good, could you carry this on after all this lockdown??? cus I would carry on watching more of this type of video

MIke does the tongue thing when focusing - watch him when he's rolling the pasta hahaha. MORE x

Wait a second that's not Mike saying the intro...

When this is all over, I'd love to see the chefs remote controlled by the normals. Except, to stop them interfering and overriding, they have the shockers attached and the normals can shock them if they don't follow instructions.

aw, sweet boys missing each other, so cute. it's probably the longest they haven't seen each other since they've started the channel. also Mike and James together, what a treat)

Cheers to sorted for making this situation for fun

Wasn’t prepared for the new intro

A video idea that can be done both like this video and in the studio: Two normals and one chef. One normal is cooking, one normal has the recipe and the chef has a bowl filled with suggestions on how the normal is going to read. The recipe steps are covered so that the normal can't cheat and read ahead. The normal can only read the recipe step once so the other normal who is cooking has to pay attention and remember everything. For example: Barry is cooking, Jamie reads the recipe and Ben picks from the bowl. Jamie can read the first step like normal, for step two, Ben draws a paper/card that Jamie has to read the step while spinning around. For step three, Jamie has to read from a distance. For step four, Jamie has to read while the recipe is upside down. And so it continues until the recipe is done. I feel like this could be pretty challenging for the guys and very entertaining for us! Also, finally the guys know how we feel watching all of their amazing food and not being able to smell or taste it!

Really enjoyed this. You guys are doing amazing adapting to the situation.

Worth staying up until 3am to watch you guys! Much love from New Zealand. Hope everyone is keeping safe during this time

You guys are the best. Thank you for thinking of us and making us smile. Thank you so much for working so hard through these difficult times ❤ Thank you SORTED!

A bunch of people I know are making sourdough starter and their own bread. Could y'all do an updated bread video?

Hopefully Mike will be confident in making his own pasta in future. This looks yummy, great job!

This is the kind of encouragement and content I need during this quarantine.

It looks pretty amazing Mike, great job! I died at the part when James said 'chefs don't do even numbers', haha, then his guilt trip when Mike didnt listen to him.... (reminds me of Barry. Out of the normals, both Barry and Mike totally look up to sassy Jamesie and i love it)

For the past 2 weeks I've been watching your super old videos and cooking different recipes (for example, today I've made your version of pizza from scratch). So much time spent with you, I consider you guys my real-life friends now (well I actually see you more than my friends so it's valid)

The moment the “Pluggy plug plug” song comes on, I immediately stop listening to whatever’s being plugged and just dance to the song. It is way too catchy!

Wait James.... Do you have 'Modernist cuisine:The art and science of cooking' behind your back? So cheffy😂

I love how comfortable james has become in front of the camera! I remember how he used to never wanna be on the screen 😂

You don't know how much these videos mean to so many people in this insanity-inducing time. You've checked all of the boxes: Humour✔️ Education✔️ Empathy✔️ Understanding✔️ Rising to challenges✔️ Easy, affordable in-pantry dishes✔️ Cost-effective alternatives✔️ I'm seriously going to try making the pasta tonight! Ok, I don't have 00 level flour, but, 'needs must when the devil farts in your general direction'. This at-home format is fun, and you're doing an absolutely phenomenal job. I'm off to binge more episodes now!

HURRAAAH for Mike, who must have had to figure out 1) crazy multi camera video set up, audio set up, 2) had to find flour and eggs, and 3) then cook in a time limit IN FRAME all pretty much by himself! I have a feeling we are going to see lots of Mike in the kitchen, and as much as I love the other guys, I think this is a fab solution. I totally appreciate the lengths they are going to to make the best quality possible under weird constraints. HUGE SHOUT OUT ! Thank you SORTED

Thank you for continuously bringing joy to people around the world during these challenging times guys! All the love x!

I think this is the perfect time boys to give some college/microwaveable friendly tips or recipe. I for one would really appreciate it. Or maybe tests some kitchen/cooking "hacks" 😅😅😅 stay safe everybody!

The courage of this man to work in his kitchen wearing a white cotton sweater 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I don't want to see more of these only because I can't wait to see you guys together once again. Great video as usual, and thank you for your time and work.

I click as fast as I can. Thanks for getting me to through the quarantine Sorted ❤❤

Oh my word! This is the coolest idea! Thanks for continuing to bring us amazing content guys!

Thank you for continuing to make and upload videos while we're all stuck at home. This was great! Also, your daily live shows have been an awesome distraction during a grim time. Thank you all so much! Happy Easter!

I love how sincerely genuine your friendship has always been. Love you guys! Be safe and healthy!

Love the intro and concept already! Go Mike!

so um can we have home tours? I keep trying to look behind everyone to see what they have going on.

What a great way to keep the Sorted spirit alive. At your core you blokes are still about mates trying to help each other learn. Well done! And well done editing, it looks super put together even with the new limitations.

I'd just like to take a moment to say, thank you, truly. Thank you for continuing to provide us with quality entertainment and doing your best to cheer us up during this weird and stressful time. Watching you guys with a meal I just cooked up in between my online classes made my day much better!

They still get their videos looking so good. 😒 Mike is an expert videographer. The 10 years of experience is showing.

Very fun concept video. Reminds me a bit of Ratatouille - "I have a tiny chef on my phone that tells me what to do."

Have your family be the judges!! Love this series. Keep being funny and chefy!

This is the content I’ve needed. Amazing and wholesome. Thank you all, can’t wait for the next one!!

I love that James' chef instincts kick in and say: "Make sure you give the customer a dish that has as little food as possible and CANNOT be divided evenly between a couple!"

Ooh, this seems like a cool and interesting premise!

Fellas, this is actually a really great format. I feel like I actually learned something! It was made with stuff I would actually buy, and looked like it wouldn't take me all day, either.

I have an idea for the post-lockdown video! It's PiO and Remote control mixed together. You set the order and first person starts a dish. Then, after maybe 10 or even 5 minutes, second person comes in and takes over but it's guided by the first one. Say, Ben starts, cooks for a bit, then Mike comes in, Ben is not allowed to touch anything in the kitchen, but he can relay to Mike whatever he feels is important: what to do, what's the dish, next steps and so on. After 5/10 minutes Ben gets out completely, Mike steps to the side and Jamie comes in to cook. Mike can guide him, just like Ben did. And so on, you get the idea, hopefully :) The whole deal is that while they can talk to each other, they still can't plan much under pressure, and have to be very good at communicating. Like, some people can be bossy (looking at you Ben 😆) and try to use the 'together' time to remote control next person, instead of telling than what the dish is and what it will need. Others might be "flappy" ;) and pretty much leave the next person on their own without developing next steps for them. I hope I made myself clear 😂

Yay, hope y'all are staying safe

Really nice. I'm seeing a lot of low-quality video conferences these days though, so why doesn't evryone record there clean video instead of taking the partly distorted one, which mike sees?

This was absolutely fantastic - it’s so impressive that you’ve managed to maintain such a high level of quality and entertainment given the restrictions you’ve got to work within. Brilliantly filmed and edited, well done 👏🏻🙌🏻👌🏻

That was a lot of fun to watch! I'm very glad you're able to keep putting out content in these circumstances. Your hard work is appreciated.

The intro?????? wasn’t prepared for that

James ur the sweetest n the nicest and greatest

Well done Mike! I think one feels more at ease in his own kitchen. Looks amazing, thanks for the video guys, makes this times easier to go through!

This was SO MUCH FUN!! Mike = the most delightful. I really appreciated being able to see all the steps up close, too.

A new intro? Yes please!

Mike I could've believed you had those ingredients already until you got to the cheese. I was like there's no way mike who hates oily fish and cheesy cheese would keep cheese on hand.

This is one of my favorite episodes!! A real fridge and making it up as you go. Great job!!

Love this! Mike did such a good job. Thank you for still making content despite everyone being in quarantine ♥️

It's a shame we didn't get a 10 year anniversary video.

Should’ve used a rat 🐀 called Remy

Love this type of video. It feels very personal and much more interesting than the "funny" and kind of chaotic remote control videos you did in the studio. Would definitely love to see more of these. Thank you!

Got me emotional seeing them looking at each other on computer camera like I look to my friends.

Let me pause on 8:20, leave the video and create a James gif, additional to my about 20+ gif's of my SortedFood gif collection 🤭😂😁

"Comté AOP" The AOP means "appellation d'origine protégée" which basically means they won't tell you exactly where in France the cheese is from, you know, to protect the cheese farmers 😂 (just kidding, it means the cheese was made in the same region that the milk comes from, or something like that)

Thanks so much for going the extra mile to keep videos coming while the world is on hold. The escape is greatly appreciated.

Very cool! Well done guys, especially Mike! We need more of these vids.
