The Great British Bake Off thread 2014

[Hilts]

Anyone going to watch this?

[Vocal Minority]

Yep - like a bit of bake off me.

[skinny]

Doesn't feel that long since the last one!
But yeah will probably watch it with the missus as normal

[brickwall]

I am unreasonably excited.

I have to have a supply of food ready while I'm watching it - the pictures of delicious cakes make me hungry....

[Ved]

Hell yes!

[trooperiziz]

Of course, one of the best shows on TV.

Moving to BBC1 and with an accompanying programme on BBC2 (An Extra Slice), it seems to be being treated like Strictly Come Dancing now, which i'm not sure is good or bad...

How do you make a Swiss roll? Push Roger Federer down a hill.

I actually would like to push Roger Federer down a hill, or off a cliff, or anything else high up. Anyway, baking.

[Daz68]

A tight and defined roll... Oooh matron.

[Daz68]

Coffee swiss roll. Lovely.

[Bungleaio]

I've not watched this before. I feel the need to eat cake now that I am….

[ajprice]

I like beardy Ian, but I don't think he'll be there long.

[Regiment]

Definitely a fan of Martha, she's looking like she'll go all the way. The Black Forest Swiss Roll looked scrumptious though yum .

[Mr GrimNasty]

He's at it again, glint in his eye, admiring Martha's moist cherry cake. This will not end well.

[brickwall]

Correct decision.

Jordan hasn't got long left either, I don't think.

[24lemons]

Can't stand Jordan. He came across as a self satisfied smug git and he just wasn't any good!

Took all my will power not to go to the kitchen and find something sweet and unhealthy to eat!
