Specialists in TV title sequences Kiss My Pixel were clearly allowed to go crazy with TV chef - no - cook (he's a cook, not a chef!!), Nigel Slater's new BBC series.
Though unusually they seem to have gone more town on the closing credits than the opening titles (which aren't exactly anything special).
Check it out here (this link will take you straight to the closing sequence)

They are credits which certainly make you sit up and take notice! They have even managed to sneakily get the Kiss My Pixel logo in there, masquerading as a type of herb!!
It's a nice idea, but I'm not keen on the way they have implemented it. The way the camera jolts suddenly from one jar to the next and blurs in between seems stilted and strange, as if we're looking through the eyes of a bleary-eyed student who's just got in from a night out, stumbling around the kitchen to rustle up a pre-bed omelette. It just doesn't seem right. I would have preferred a simple line of jars/cans/whatever on a shelf, with the camera slowly moving from one end to the other.
That said, it's certainly different and kudos to them for that.
