rofl My wife and I had the xact same discussion last night! He adds nothing to this show - he's there purely for continuity with Masterchef.

Anyone know why Torode isn't in this but baldy is? At least he (probably) has a better palate than Greg.

I should point out that i actually quite like baldy but he seems out of his depth on the pro show.

In general, the amateur masterchef actually seems to contain a higher quality cook.
Most of the amateurs who get through to the Friday show would do better than many of the pros I'm sure.

Feck me, even I could joint a chicken better than 2 of the pros that were on the show on Tuesday.

That first test must be a bit stressful though, with whatsherface-the-abo and baldy watching them.

Errr... how do I break this to you.... I resigned and suprising enough but was my doing as a going away present for the blokes in my team, a model took my place and I went back to investment banking... Its fun being friends with the recruiter in charge, best not tell the newbie she got my old job cause of her looks.

So no models and depends on when I finish as to when I turn up tonight.

It does my head in - but i have to watch it.

That stupid bint who works for MRJ gets right on my threpnies. Stop talking up your profession like its Brain Surgery/Bomb Disposal - it's not that important and not that stressful. Its fking cooking.

It must be very nerve wracking to have to do the tasks with two people standing right on top of you doing the judging.

Having said that, the fact that most of them don't even know where to start spatchcocking/deboning/filleting etc, let alone how to do it well, is quite incredible. And cringeworthy.

I seem to remember the guy that won it last year looked like a pretty hot s**t chef - what's happened to them this year???

PS I don't mind Greg Wallace in general, but is it really necessary to suck the spoon/fork for 5 seconds after each bite?

On a related note, I know someone who got to the 1/4 finals of normal masterchef. He told me that when they do the tasting it can take up to 2 hours to get to the final person. So if you think it's all fun being a presenter, try to imagine having to judge the food when it's stone cold and all dried out... frown

You guys are pretty perceptive ( and acidic!) in your comments.

Yep, they don't seem as good as some other masterchefs, especially that rugby player celebrity one, he was great. Matt Damon?

Yep, why does Gregg just repeat what Danny LeRoux says? Is he too scared of saying something else. Also, he also comments second, have you noticed that, to protect him wink. He's like that bint on Strictly Come Dancin' who took over Arlene's place at the moment. He was ok with John Torrode.

PS What do you think of the new Nigel Slater series, I quite like it. Nigel always looks like he gets semi hard about 4 seconds after the first forkful, even if it is boiled turnip.

I guess just because TV is slow.

I was also told that JT & GW were half (or more) cut most of the time. Whether this is true or not I don't know.
