I did a thread about not getting it, didn't go down well in some quarters Grin.

YANBU to think it's boring, YABU for liking it in the first place.

Boring this year. They're all too nice.

Would be far better if they snuck around turning off each other's ovens and putting poo in each other's cakes.

yanbu, in that I find all these reality programmes very very boring.

yabu for ever having wasted even a few precious moments of your life on the previous series.

YADNBU. I have never seen it (we don't live in the UK) but I can't understand what about it would be enjoyable viewing. My best friend in the UK raves about it Confused.

BeCarefulWithThat · 16/09/2015 20:40

I'm struggling to get excited about it this year. They need to tweak the format somehow.

BrendaandEddie · 16/09/2015 20:40

i gave up this series after ep2

happened up on it again - still as gripping Wink

YANBU
Bake Off is dull.
I can't be bothered to watch the show.

BrendaandEddie · 16/09/2015 20:41

You know

You just described my SiL. She's WILD. Apparently.

AnyFucker · 16/09/2015 20:46

I have never "got" this programme

Nice cakes. Yes. The end.

MissMarpleCat · 16/09/2015 20:47

Yanbu, but then again I find all cooking programmes incredibly dull Grin

BrendaandEddie · 16/09/2015 20:47

I'm finding it boring this year too. I think I'll start watching neighbour from hell instead

Mind you. Talking of crap tv, my husband had a week off work last week and watched Jeremy Kyle for the first time and dinner date and then started watching them on catch up Confused and at the end of the week proclaimed they were the best programs ever Confused
He's 45 and has two bloody degrees
He 're ran the dinner date episode to me and tbh I hadn't got a clue why he liked it so much.

ShouldHavenotOf · 16/09/2015 20:47

I'm with you, I find it deathly dull.

The husband however, is devoted and has parked himself on the floor in front of it so as not to miss a thing.

BrendaandEddie · 16/09/2015 20:48

Joffry - is she ' really naughty' and ' a chocoholic'?

fuck em

Maybe I'm your SIL

confusedandemployed · 16/09/2015 20:51

Could've written AlpacaLypse's post.

Never seen a single episode of Bake Off, BB, No-Marks in the Jungle, People Sewing Bees, etc etc. Cheap, pointless, unimaginative TV.

Owllady · 16/09/2015 20:51

I like four in a bed. They are all power MAD, God complex nutters
I'll never stay in a b&b again

BrendaandEddie · 16/09/2015 20:51

their obesession with dirt - yes VG
