Oh I knew it was starting soon, but didn't know it was tomorrow YANBU :)

Pancakeflipper · 15/02/2011 23:17

No you aren't.. I had forgotten about it and now won't be able to sleep with excitement at the thought of all those scallops on pea purée.....

And cringing when Greg Wallace smacks his lips and does that wide eyed 'ummmmmmmmm."

Thingumy · 15/02/2011 23:20

YABU

They are have got a new strapline 'let's get fatter'

Both are fat twat heads.

So it doesn't get tougher than this.

Pancakeflipper · 15/02/2011 23:21

Ooh even more to look forward to - Greg Leering Wallace exploding from fatness.

are Michel and Monica in it?

I think Michel is lovely and I just so admire Monica... she is a fierce woman!

Pancakeflipper · 15/02/2011 23:30

No - thats a different programme. This is John and Greg tormenting amateurs with a griddle.

TragicallyHip · 15/02/2011 23:31

I'm excited too! Can't wait to see what the twist is!

MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:31

Garnish. NOW!

outnumbered2to1 · 15/02/2011 23:31

its being advertised as bigger and better this year. I hope they haven't mucked about with it too much

MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:31

I think they have modelled it on the Australian version which I have seen.

MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:32

I mean, sure loads of others have seen it too, usually on the food channel late in the evening, when I finish service.

outnumbered2to1 · 15/02/2011 23:33

hmmm will reserve putting on the judgy pants till tomorrow....

TragicallyHip · 15/02/2011 23:34

The 1st time I watched the Aussie version I was like Noooo Uk is better but I have now changed my mind and much prefer the Aussie version! We need a bit of a spruce up!

Pancakeflipper · 15/02/2011 23:37

Seasoning.... Chuck in the salt...

IHeartKingThistle · 15/02/2011 23:37

Oooh I am excited too, thanks for the reminder!

Pancake LOL at scallops on pea puree. I'll see that and raise you a rack of lamb that's raw in the middle and a solid chocolate fondant...how many times?!

Pancakeflipper · 15/02/2011 23:41

Ha ha IHeartKingThistle

Solid fondants... Oh it makes Greg cry.

Raise you a starchy risotto, an unseasoned buttersquash soup and "I can't eat that.. pink chicken"

outnumbered2to1 · 15/02/2011 23:43

lol - i'm even more excited now. (yes i know that's a sad state of affairs)

OP posts:
MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:44

ooh, when Greg goes all crossed, casts a glance over at the contestant and forms big O with his mouth..."a truly lovely plate of food!

I'm looking forward to Monica's eyebrow twitching incredulity of horror as some poor sucker tries to fillet a catfish or somesuch in ten seconds....

MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:45

..and some lovely "fusion" food" chocolate dipped onion bhaji, anyone?

IHeartKingThistle · 15/02/2011 23:49

and lots of things that might not set in time Grin

blackletterday · 15/02/2011 23:51

Dp mentioned this tonight, I think we need to get a life. We usually watch all of them, but dp is the cook in the relationship. Liked Michel Roux's service though, good stuff.

QueenStromba · 15/02/2011 23:55

Thank you so much for starting this thread - I'd have missed half of the series otherwise.

MadameDefarge · 15/02/2011 23:56

I do so hope we lose the mircroscopic smears of parnsip puree and zigzags of sauces. I do so feel for fine diners (and I include myself amongst them when I get the chance) just to have some miserable blob of utter gorgeousness...its cruel.

outnumbered2to1 · 16/02/2011 00:00

queenstromba happy to be of service and am very glad i am not all alone in my "saddo-ness"
