To wonder who the F*** watches Great British Menu?

[Twinkie1]

It is the most long running pile of lameness on the TV!

Do they keep it running just to give Jenny Bond a job?

[EatDessertFirst]

I like it. Especially when dishy Marcus Wareing is a judge!

[Blarblarblar]

OMG I'm such a tragedy, I love it. My DP despairs

[sproketmx]

Never heard of it if I'm honest

[LIZS]

Compulsive viewing here. More cooking and drama, less soft stories preferable though.

[Lunaballoon]

MW was so harsh on a previous series he made one of the chefs cry. Very uncomfortable viewing!

[OxfordCommoner]

I love it. Matt Gillan runs my favourite local restaurant.

[LunchpackOfNotreDame]

My husband

It's shit. He keeps turning to me and saying "ooh did you see that!" no I fucking didn't because ITS A PLATE OF FOOD AND THIS PROGRAMME IS A PILE IF WANK

Leave me to MN in peace

[TwllBach]

Iiiiiiii dooooooo

Pregnancy bad sleep stuff going on here, so it's nice and soothing and is about the only thing that can lull me to sleep!

[ThursdayLastWeek]

I love it!
Though this series isn't that inspiring - the brief is dull dull dull

[Eminybob]

Oh it is shit and the reasons for the banquets are gearing more and more tenuous but I've been watching it from the first series and it's just habit now.

[Eminybob]

*getting

[ThursdayLastWeek]

Matt Gillan is fit

[TheTravellingLemon]

I love it! Though if one more chef dedicates their dish to their inspirational grandmother I think I will chuck the telly out the window.

Agree the brief this year is dull. Whether you're an ambitious newcomer or competition veteran

[MrsCorbyn]

Love it. Bake off however is a pile of shite

[Prettyeyedpiratesmile]

I've been to the restaurant in a show that is owned by one of the previous contestants....Jacqueline somebody and it was yum yum yum

[Prettyeyedpiratesmile]

*in Glasgow typing and feeding a baby!

[WeAllFloat]

My dh is watching it now. Oh! Oh, he just switched over, it really must be shit.

[Boosiehs]

Matt Gillian is lush!!!!

I love GBM. I realise I am sad.

[airforsharon]

in my defence i'm curled up in my pyjamas with a brew and feeling unwell and sorry for myself, so it's the most my feeble brain can cope with right now. I'm finding it strangely soothing

[GooseberryJam]

My elderly parents watch it all the time. Cookery shows are their thing. So just think of the pensioners!

[Blueberry234]

I love it, especially criticising how they serve the food shouting at the TV 'use a fecking plate!'

[Cookingongas]

I love it. Good family viewing ( though I agree we're clutching at straws this year)

[RedNailPolish101]

I like it too... I liked the crazy northern chap who did the starters in an egg shaped thing... Think it gets better as it goes into their later rounds.

[OllyBJolly]

I quite enjoy it -good to unwind to. Agree this is a bad year though. The Comic Relief theme was one of the best - get some humour in. This is dull (with apologies to any WRI MNers)
