Bork-bork.:-)
Search the archives you'll find that a lot of the Americans on this
list, and quite a few Brits as well, has had their little fun about
this before (search for Bork, and you shall find;).
I pity the guy... Imagine being lured to another country, where you
don't ahave even a remote clue as to how to speak the local lingo, to
cook on a show on national TV... and discover that the "show" is just
you and the camera... I can well imagine him starting to mumble as he
went about cooking. The his mumbling doesn't resemble Swedish even in
any remote way is probably due to the very broad dialect he was
speaking:-).
