Well depends on your perspective - for me I'd think showing where you can go wrong can be more useful than someone showing it going right.

And as the BBC currently also publish some of the recipes online http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/programmes/b013pqnm , then people can then attempt something they've seen and liked on the show, with knowledge of what to avoid (such as don't open the lid when doing dampfnudeln)

And then there is also the GBBO Masterclass series which is where Paul and Mary then do more of a 'classic' cookery programme to show how to make them right first time. I have no idea if Channel 4 would continue with that.
