Please, can we stop with the 'It's not gendered, and to prove it I will throw in a mildly disparaging comment about a male competitor?' which is about the most disingenuous thing I've ever seen on a thread slagging off a woman for her appearance and on-camera manner. 
God forbid a pretty young woman who dresses well and - shock! - wears visible lipstick doesn't manage to be entirely forgetful of the fact there's a camera in her face for two days, or to look visibly happy and proud when she gets a good comment from the judges! She should perfect her shock - who, little ol' me?- face immediately.
She's being pilloried for not doing the natural-faced look AND for not managing to pull off managing to appear 'natural' in front of the camera. when she's presumably aware all the time that her appearance and demeanour is possibly being dissected online.
Do you think you could spend two days trying to cook something complicated when the second something starts to go wrong, several cameras converge and do close-ups, and not develop weird facial expressions as a way of dealing with the scrutiny?
I say good for her for looking rather glamorous and making delicious things, which are not the sole province of self-deprecating Yorkshire grannies or nice Norfolk farmers with ponies. (Or indeed lovable NI engineering red-heads, or Jane, who is my real love this season, and who I think was robbed of star baker this week...)
Something inside me is deeply pleased that somewhere in this country there's a PE teacher with cherry-red Clara Bow lips, having suffered from the scrubbed sideline Mussolini variety in my schooldays.
Final will be Candice, Jane and Benjamina. All three of whom are cool.
