All seems a bit rushed tonight. Did filming need to get a hurry up because of Covid?
The right 3 in the final though.
You might be right.

A worthy winner even though I wanted Matt to win.

I also wanted Pinhead to win. He's cooked brilliantly all the way through, with superb attention to detail (as you'd expect from a 4x Olympic champion!). I've warmed to Riyadh as the series progressed, but I still struggle with whether he proper;y ticks the "celebrity" box. That may be a generational thing though, as I don't follow any YouTubers (although I had the misfortune to see the video of the Paul brothers visiting the Lamborghini factory and being told they couldn't have a tour - what a pair of brats!)

Thoroughly deserved win, and a strong performance from all three in the (rather rushed) final.

I think I've fallen a little bit for Sam cloud9

Did find Riyadh very attention seeking and annoying, always looking to perform for the camera rather than get on with the show, but very much deserved to win. I also very much have the hots for Sam!!

A 'new' six parter starts this evening at 8 o'clock - celebrating 15 years of the show.

SUMMARY
This six-part special series celebrates 15 years of Celebrity MasterChef, during which time judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace have seen more than 300 celebrities compete in the kitchen.In this episode, John and Gregg relive some of the best and worst food from the early rounds of the competition and look back at the celebrities’ first tastes of the MasterChef kitchen. They also revisit two of their favourite challenges, both of which involved taking the celebrities out of their comfort zone. First, it’s back to 2012 when finalists footballer Danny Mills, writer and comedian Emma Kennedy and TV presenter Michael Underwood were sent to cater for over 100 cast and crew on the set of BBC drama New Tricks, using just the basic facilities of a catering truck. Then they reminisce about Atomic Kitten’s Liz McClarnon, actor Mark Moraghan and TV presenter Andi Peters cooking breakfast for 120 cadets in a basic army field kitchen at Sandhurst in 2008. Sharpen the knives, light the stoves – it’s 15 years of Celebrity MasterChef.
