It should have been miranda

[PutOnThePan]

Sorry for lack of punctuation but typing on I pod but Miranda woz robbed! I've just completely lost interest in tgbbo however ed to win now!

I loved that program, but I did think Miranda would win, though I do like Ed!

We're Ruth fans here!

Took an irrational dislike to ruth when she said that parenting was competitve and then had a massive chip on her shoulder about lack of un iversity education

hooray for ed!

Yes I agree POTP. Miranda was a bit "little miss perfect." Ed was lovely and his twin brother obviously likes his cakes!

lol about his brother. Yes, he was obviously drafted in for tasting duty.

Puton agree wholeheartedly I found Ruth really annoying and I think it was those very same comments that triggered my irritation.

But her Lemon Drizzle Layer Cake was fab. I also made her Boy Bait pud and it was delish.

I think I put on 2 stone just watching. I have loved this series.

Edd messed up his cakes in the first section of the final and should have gone out,I liked them all really but Miranda made no mistakes and should have stayed,he had to cut his cakes out of the mould .

Ruth was just a little too perfect for me ,she started off my favourite(I have three boys too!)but comepletely lost it when she was snide about Miranda's fish pie ,and just a little too openly competetive.The male judge was too mechanistic for me as well

I think Miranda's stuff was good but unoriginal/derivative.
I thought Edd was inconsistent.
I think it should have been chippy Ruth.

And Paul Holywell should get a grip. So many rules about baking that nobody except him knows about...

Well done Edd - taught him everything he knows

I was very surprised when Miranda didn't get through to the Tea party bake-off when her cakes were so pretty and immaculate, and Edd's were such a mess!

I have been dropping some fairly heavy hints, and I'm hoping that dh will get me the recipe book for birthday or christmas. I do want to have a go at Ruth's mini quiches with the cheesy pastry - that sounds delicious.

My sister got the book recently at Tesco. I think it was £10. It's fab!

The book is very nice. It's heavily discounted at The Book People and on Amazon.

I really wanted Ruth to win, I thought she was really nice.

Ed should have gone weeks ago, he made loads of cock-ups. His only great week was the bread.

I didn't think Miranda was that good either. Everyone raved about her chocolate cake, but I thought it was a bit of a mess. Although I did love the lemon cupcakes.

I have the book, it's really good. Have made 2 things already, and am doing Ruths beef pie tomorrow.

Ruth should have won, she was the most consistent. What a great series and I cannot bake for toffee.

Yes Ruth was very consustent, Ed most of the time too - but when he got it right it was better. In the final task you could see what he made had the edge so a deserved winner.

He was good at bread and I think that was what swung it for him. Paul was impressed by that.

absolutely loved watching this and very disappointed that Miranda didn't make it to the "tea off" ... wonder if she is a MNetter?

Miranda was Soooooooooooo robbed. I don't see how Ed could win at all. He should have been out for those messy cakes. Sexism I say!

'women are good at everything except sewing and baking'

oh, and i had a savoury tart as part of high tea at The Lanesborough - WTF were they on about savouries not being a part of tea?

i think she lives near me somewhere

waves<

she wears alot of Joules-looking things - they have a nice shop in Chichester...

ooooooo im friends with Ruth on FB now
