Saturday Kitchen Viewers Criticize Luke Evans' Outfit Choice, Demanding He "Take It Off"
On the latest episode of Saturday Kitchen , actor Luke Evans, known for his roles in Beauty and the Beast and The Hobbit , sparked an online uproar over his choice of attire. The 45-year-old star appeared on the popular BBC cooking show to discuss his new book Boy From the Valleys: My Unexpected Journey while preparing a meal with host James Martin. However, it wasn’t just his culinary skills that grabbed attention – it was his outfit that had viewers on edge.

Evans opted for a white shirt, a grey cardigan, and chinos, which seemed like a casual yet stylish choice. But the real issue began with his accessory: a flat tweed cap. Many viewers found it inappropriate to wear a hat indoors, especially on a television show broadcast to a wide audience. Social media exploded with comments, with fans voicing their frustration over the actor's decision to keep the cap on during the segment. Some were quick to question his choice, with one viewer on X (formerly known as Twitter) asking, “Wearing a flat cap indoors?” Another comment read, “Take off your hat inside!”
The backlash continued, with many viewers expressing their dislike for men wearing hats indoors, calling it a "pet hate." One fan even joked, “Take your cap off or you won’t feel the benefit when you go outside.” The comments continued to flood in, with some likening him to a character from Peaky Blinders , a show known for its iconic flat caps.
Despite the fashion complaints, Evans was praised for his book and his engaging conversation with James Martin. He spoke enthusiastically about the process of recording the audiobook for Boy From the Valleys , even sharing that he was so familiar with the material, he didn’t need to look at the book while recording it. His easygoing nature and storytelling skills won him positive feedback from those who tuned in for the segment.
However, the outfit controversy wasn’t the first time Saturday Kitchen has faced viewer complaints over guest attire. Just last month, viewers took to social media to criticize guest chef Kate Carter-Larg for wearing a revealing low-cut strapless top during a cooking segment. In both cases, fans felt that the outfits distracted from the food and the purpose of the show.
In the end, while Luke Evans’ appearance on Saturday Kitchen may have been memorable for reasons other than his cooking, his hat might have overshadowed the culinary experience for many viewers. Nonetheless, the actor's charm and the fascinating insight into his book made it a segment worth watching – cap and all.
