I love the Silver Fox and all his ferocious solemnity.
He can come knead my dough any time.

Competitive baking..... sigh
Bliss.
I don't respect myself for this but it is the case I can't deny it.

Oh, thanks for the reminder. Must watch.

Who do you think is going to win? I don't know the names yet, but the woman last week, MNetty kind of a woman. She was good.

I love it and I am gluten intolerant. Hmm
It all looks so yummy, but forbidden fruit to me. Just so bloody unfair.

It is great!! I have bought the book and I hope I can do the recipes justice.

Is it brandy snap night?

Oh don't! I am so jealous. I was back in UK and caught the first 2 episodes and now I'm missing it. Have even tried to download it somehow but can't :(

Who was the 3rd one to be evicted? Who was star baker last week?

YANBU - I can't work out who I'm more in love with - Rob, Sue or the DeVol kitchen units....

I'm also ridiculously excited about the Great British Bake Off. Not watched previous series but it's like a beacon of light in the mire of awful TV! I'm turning into my mom!

He can ice my buns any day.

Rob is rather tasty but a little on the young side!

I watched last season and loved it, so far am not disappointed this season either.

Whats the name of the guy with the grey hair, he's far tastier than any of the baking they've been doing!

Paul Hollywood and he looks like my DAD so can you not say sexy things about him because it's too close for comfort for me. Cheers!

You can but then you'd have to fight off my stepmum. Who looks like Jennifer Aniston.

Oh God I love the programme, I look forward to Tuesdays now!

I'm loving Jason the student guy.

I'm going to get the book and my Mum has said I should get a Be-ro book as apparently it's has the best recipes?

I am an absolute novice and haven't baked anything for years but I have the bug now!

haha amused and comforted at the extent of the phenomena that is rules about not watching programmes without the OH.

I make DP watch it with me but he gets all crotchety because it makes him "want a pudding now and there's never any sodding pudding in this house"

Rob flirts with ME, through subliminal messages. He does.
