Need a British daytime TV show

[ffutures]

Silly idea for a scene in a story I'm writing: Post Thor - The Dark World Thor is living with Jane in London and naturally has attracted considerable media attention. And occasionally gets invited onto daytime TV shows...

So I'm looking for a British (preferably London-based) show that would be appropriate for someone who doesn't really know much about Earth politics or current affairs, society in general, quiz topics, etc. etc., hasn't yet learned to drive (which lets out Top Gear), and is so ridiculously powerful that it makes no sense having him on any sort of competitive athletic / sports thing.

I'm vaguely thinking one of the judges on some sort of food and drink show - his idea of portion size might be interesting - or something of the sort, possibly Blue Peter (though that isn't made in London any more) or another kid's show, or something else where his personal presence etc. would be enough to make entertaining TV.

The snag is that I don't watch daytime TV at all and have no idea what shows would fit.

Any suggestions?

later - just thought of a good way to use Blue Peter as the show, so that's what it will be.

Great British Bake-Off!

'So, Thor, your bread doesn't seem to have risen at all?'

'Asgardian yeast is more powerful than your puny earth yeast.'

OK, sounds promising - I'll have to look it up. Wouldn't Asgardians use something like Pratchett's battle-bread anyway?

Unfortunately the timing of the series isn't good for the story I have in mind - it's a relatively short event beginning in August each year, and the climax is going to be an event in May.

I've thought of a good way for it to be Blue Peter, so I'll go with that.

Loose Women.

It's really not going to be easy to describe that show and make it interesting, and it's for a relatively brief scene in the story. I think I need something that involves an activity such as the baking suggested above.

Decided to go with Blue Peter.

Aww, c'mon. Blue Peter and Thor would go wonderfully together!

Today we're going to make a Dark Elf spaceship out of squeezy bottles and cardboard...

Actually, I've thought of a way to make Blue Peter work, so I'll go with that.

I know you've already picked Blue Peter, but this was too fun to pass up throwing my hat in, so...

Antiques Roadshow.

or Celebrity Big Brother.

Distinct lack of knowledge of Midgard antiques, and I need him active in the story, not cooped up in the Big Brother house. Thanks anyway!
