"Where's the time go" a familiar cry from us oldies.

Yorkshire lass cooking Sunday roast It was either that or fish and chips.

[Mastodon2]

Not surprised by the result tonight, it seemed a fair decision.

Tomorrow night's episode looks like it will be glorious.

[Moonhawk]

What the fk is the whole "contestants talking to each other" thing about.

Has this series got a new producer who is trying to make their mark or something.

[Laurel Green]

Ding! Aprons on and at the ready.

[7lucky7]

What a mess.

[Laurel Green]

I think it was a toss-up between James and the two girls as to who goes home.

[7lucky7]

That little Asian woman got on my nerves when she was a contestant, hope she's better as a critic.

This.

fking irritating and adds nothing.

Are they supposed to be in awe when the person who set the brief walks in? Because who's in awe of her? She's just a critic very few people have heard of. Big whoop!

I think they are told to be pretend to be in awe, to add gravitas to the situation. Of course, when it comes to marking, just as with the round where they have to cook for the table of critics, John and Greg seem to put almost no stock in the critic's opinion and choose their own winners. The critics are really only there for a different opinion, albeit one that makes no difference to the eventual outcome of the competition.

Depends on who's wielding them.

Did I hear him say he has 150 hats?

[KP328]

He might have 150 hats but i bet he doesn't own one like the one James May was wearing today on the news clip i saw.
