Oliver's Twist is a 2002 television series featuring chef Jamie Oliver. The name of the program is a play on the title of Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist. Following the popularity of his first TV series, The Naked Chef, Oliver began producing Oliver's Twist to be aired outside the UK. The show became a success — being aired in over 70 countries — and helped establish Oliver's global popularity.[1]
