Enjoying it so far, Martin Kemp baking as I'd expect him to.

Cooking the buttercream and leaving the cake mix on the bench

Watching this. Sad that Bill Turnbull has announced his diagnosis of Prostate Cancer.

All good people doing a good thing, and all watchable. I think I’m in love with Harry Hill.

[poing]

Sad news that someone who did the show was then diagnosed but I guess that just shows exactly why they do it. I can honestly say that like him I haven't been to the doctors for a very long time, in my case over a decade so I'm a prime candidate for a late diagnosis.

HH has a wonderfully warped mind. Looking forward to the next episode.

I liked HH as a stand-up in the early part of his career. Not so much in his TV shows. His appearance in this show has rekindled my interest in his comedy.

Roisin's excellent cupcakes were clearly a fluke. She was clueless.

Nick Hewer from Countdown, Ricky Wilson from the Kaiser Chiefs, Stacey Solomon from other TV shows, Perri Kiely from Diversity (the one with the big hair).

Making scones for the first bit. Paul is being Paul and its freaking Stacey Solomon out

That was pretty good, really liked all the celebs. Stacey has some great facial expressions.

Tim Minchin, Ruth Davidson (Scottish MP), Jamie Laing (Made In Chelsea), Ella Eyre (Singer).

I wasn't expecting to like most of the celebs this week but they were really good fun.

[Gretchen]

Best episode so far this week. Mel Sykes seems like a nice, genuine person, plus Frida Kahlo is one of my icons. Lee Mack I’m in love with. Griff and Joe nice guys too.

That was good fun, seamed to be a good rapport between all of them

Very funny last night, a good watch. It helps if 75% of the contestants are comedians or quasi-comedians. They seemed to be having more fun than the viewers.

[seiben]

Come on, I can't be the only one watching?

[Trustmeimadoctor]

I'm watching too ruby and that French one don't care if they can bake!

[Gretchen]

I only started watching this last year. I’ve become obsessed with Prue’s kinky neckwear. Last year ball gags. This year twist ties. Fabulous.

[poing]

Quite like all the people so far. Ruby reminds me a lot of the bosses daughter which is distracting, especially when she has the same name as another contestant. My poor brain!

[KP328]

So far so good, nice to see it back on telly.
