Old thread here. This is copied and pasted from there.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT***

Next episode is Easter Monday at 8.30pm (for an hour). This is the start of knockout week.

Then:
Wednesday 8pm-9pm
Thursday 8pm-9pm
Friday 8.30pm-9pm

They start the week with 12, lose one a night and at the end of Friday they're down to 8.

Then just to confuse us even more they put an episode on a Sunday (12th April) 7.30-8pm.
Monday 13th 8pm-9pm.

That's as far as the BBC website shows at the moment. That's semi-final week so presumably the finals are the following week.

I think the 'experts' were there to give their 'expert' opinions on the 'layers of complexity' in the dishes..

But I thought that was Gnashers Wallace specialised subject? Grin

Mind you, when Gnashers says a pud is too sweet and Jowly John contradicts him, I think the next judge should be Alice, cos we're really in Wonderland here. Mad Hatters Tea Party, anyone?

Oh here we go with the walking again...

Davros · 16/04/2015 19:00

Love the story about the tache tips, I'd never dreamed such a thing existed! Yes, let's get him some, I'm in!

Givenotake · 16/04/2015 19:05

Is Paul the least memorable man to ever be on television?

hideandseekpig · 16/04/2015 19:27

Is it on tonight? What time? I get so confused by the scheduling!

squoosh · 16/04/2015 19:30

Election debates tonight I think.

hideandseekpig · 16/04/2015 19:51

Ah ok thanks !

Jacana · 16/04/2015 19:53

Yeah, I like elections but not when they bugger up important TV schedulesShock

Ok, if the tache wins, anyone else up to gifting him some....errr...whatztheycalled's? Btw, has anyone noticed if they've significantly grown during the programme?

Jacana · 16/04/2015 19:56

givenotake remind me, who the f. Is Paul ? Grin

Without cheating, I think the people left are:

Emma, cooks mostly Middle Eastern food, 40s, dark hair in a bun, runs a travel business, mother of four, lives in North London

Paul, cooks mostly French or Caribbean food, 40s, black guy with a clam a very calm manner, can remember nothing about what he does for a living or where he lives, family status has not been mentioned IIRC

Sarah, mostly cooks ?street food (but much more likeable than the hideous Jackie of a couple of series ago who only did street food and did my nut in), about 24, wears a lot of blusher, can't remember any other background stuff

Pete, mostly cooks Japanese food, around 25, tall, dark-haired, possibly from Nottingham

Simon, extremely good cook but can't remember if he has a particular style, late 30s, father of four, sounds Northern

Tony, also vg cook, ?late 30s, can remember no other personal stuff, has a fabulous moustache with waxed ends

I've warmed to all of them. Don't much mind who ends up in the final except that I do want Emma to win. Smile

Good summation but wait a minute!

Simon is a father of four?! Is he in a relationship with a woman?

squoosh · 16/04/2015 20:30

And OMG, had forgotten mad street food Jackie!

squoosh · 16/04/2015 20:30

She was so annoying she warranted that OMG.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 16/04/2015 20:32

I suppose it could mean he's a sperm donor, but I had assumed the conventional way! I had the same reaction when they mentioned it a few weeks in...

Jackie came back as a judge once. I had to be held down on the sofa.

GrouchyKiwi · 16/04/2015 20:39

Great summary, Gaspode. Tony is 32.

I bloody wish I'd watched this live yesterday. What a pile of utter tosh from the super dooper tasters, though I liked the French lady and the chef chap was super dooper attractive.

I'll miss Beth but it was time for her to go.

GrouchyKiwi · 16/04/2015 20:43

But taste buds insured for a million? I'm bloody good at frowning and do so every day in my job as a SAHM. I'd better insure my eyebrows.

We were rolling around on the sofa when they got the nose clips out! Grin

Jacana · 16/04/2015 20:46

But I thought it was Sarah who cooked the middle Eastern FoodBlush

I'm clearly more confused than I thought I was Grin

MsRinky · 16/04/2015 20:47

Paul has lovely little ears like an otter. I too assumed that Simon fathers children for lesbians. I've never met a straight man with eyebrows like his.

squoosh · 16/04/2015 20:47

Pink faced Scottish man out wanked them all with his 'oooh uneven amounts of food are so much tastier'. 'Symmetry is so important to the palate' etc.

Kill him.

squoosh · 16/04/2015 20:48

I too assumed that Simon fathers children for lesbians.

I wonder what the starting salary is Grin
