Great British Bake Off Series 3

[Slainte]

I'm so excited, the new series starts next week . Link

Hello LadyClarice. Once again, we're thinking the same thing!

Hey me too! I had the thought about Danny great minds eh Lady and Prey?

It's the MN Hive Mind in action!

Getting ready to watch at 8 tonight. Quick break between fix of Celebrity mc (reminds self must actually look up who they are this week, it's been confusing) and this week's GBBO to feed, tidy up etc.

Mary-Anne - hello!

Oh, how much do I love 8pm Tues at the mo.

LINKY to the Bakers' profiles, so we have their real names to hand.

Ooh it's started! Has anyone else seen the rumour about Paul Hollywood doing Strictly this year?!

Ooh thx for link Hazel

Oops just seen it was already posted about Dancing Salty Dog

Back to the show!

But what's this?
Today MEL has custody of the floral scarf from Zara that Mary wore last week. (that I also have).
Do they share all they clothes, do you think?

Is james mad?
A real puff and a tart in two hours?

Love James and the double bass with dartboard in his local.

oops.
double entendre not intended...

Arff arff coffee

I have to find some willpower from somewhere and not read this thread until after I've watched the show later tonight. It's not going to be easy.

I've only just switched on and perfect Cathryn is annoying me already with scenes of her baking over an open fire whilst camping.

Like the sound of John's apple and vanilla tarte tatin.

That's the MN scarf Cathryn's wearing, isn't it...?

Manisha seems a very busy lady in her home/work life.

Those a very deep.
I would expect a crispy thin tarte tatin.

Ok, I don't see many classic tarts.
Upside down cakes - yes.

I like mine quite caramelly so some of them too apply/appley (spelling?) for me

Why is it in a marquee?

So they can have bunting?

Paul likes Danny's savoury tarte.
