I'd clearly make a crap judge.
She's obviously a fab baker, having won star baker twice but I really really hope next week is her last as all of the pouting is driving me potty.
DP thinks it's because she's trying to hide wrinkles around her mouth, which is insane if it's true.
All the ridiculous gurning is giving me The Rage.

Also, thanks to the Mnetter last week who mentioned Paul using "Mary" in every sentence.
Now that's all I hear.

I'm sure she's lovely btw Blush but I do wish shed keep her mouth still!

Right, just Googled and I can confirm that she knows what she's doing with the pouting. She's posted these photos of herself, doing it to the camera. She MUST know, and is playing for the camera.

I think that's just hugely unprofessional.

HeyNannyNanny · 22/09/2016 16:51

YoutheCat it did cross my mind that I'm not sure how I'd feel as the head or a parent

Aww Norman bless him he put lavender in his shortbread and paul slated it

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 22/09/2016 16:54

What on Earth is she doing with her cheeks there?

And yes, I'd love to be fly on the wall on her next lesson.

Oh that IS a nice armchair actually.

motherinferior · 22/09/2016 17:06

I love her new lipstick every week. And her outfits.

Val got right up my nose with her incompetence. I like all the others.

Liveanddieinthesetowns · 22/09/2016 17:07

I think she does it because she fancies Paul..

PenguindreamsofDraco · 22/09/2016 17:08

That's not possible. No-one can actually fancy Paul Hollywood. He's like a permatanned shark with cold dead eyes.

I really like her. She's a good baker and I don't think she does the lip thing on purpose.

squoosh · 22/09/2016 17:13

She definitely does the lip thing on purpose. The photos prove that, it's her 'signature look'.

hazeyjane · 22/09/2016 17:20

No she definitely doesn't do the lip thing on purpose

she is just a big fan of sucking on a freshly cut slice of lemon.

ElspethFlashman · 22/09/2016 17:24

Paul looks like one of those blokes who uses their belt as a sort of truss. He's stuffed in those stripey shirts like a big sweaty orange sausage.

Alfieisnoisy · 22/09/2016 17:39

I would like to see her win tbh

mum2Bomg · 22/09/2016 18:26

Ahhh I loved Val Angry

I think she just has one of those faces that shows every emotion she's feeling. I have one of those too - it's a pain in the arse sometimes!

mum2Bomg · 22/09/2016 18:27

Sweaty orange sausage Grin GrinGrin

mum2Bomg · 22/09/2016 18:28

My DH is convinced there is something going on between her and Paul...

HeyNannyNanny · 22/09/2016 19:43

She's definitely doing it deliberately. I could have been swayed otherwise before I found those photos.

Thank you so much Reallywittyname - love Candice but have been racking my poor little brain since this GBBO started as to who she reminded me of! Game of Scones it is!

And relax!
