Masterchef 2015 part 2

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.

Feeling the love for Simon here too. Is Mrs Simon on MN?

Hold the phone... Simon is straight? I shan't believe it.

Also Paul - otter ears GENIUS, so true

When we first saw Sarah-with-the blusher, all round faced and rosy cheeked, she reminded me of a Russian babushka. I've a set of Russian dolls and they look just like her

I saw Jackie last year at local food fair, leaning out of her street food van with Matt Folas. What a success!

Hurrah! I found you all.

I haven't read the whole thread but what is the difference between a rocher and a quenelle? From a fe episodes ago, but it's making me ponder and I could google it but would rather ask here.

Hoping its on on Friday.

Is anyone watching my kitchen rules on skyliving? cookery programme mad I am

We think a quenelle is for untalented losers who need to use two spoons whereas a rocher is for the super talented who just use the one spoon.

crafter I'm not sure and it sounds daft but I think a richer is a quenelle made with just one spoon instead of using two?

And then there's the Ferrero type, of course

I've not got Sky btw.

Snap squoosh

Aaah. Thankyou. Still none the wiser, esp as in the last series I remember greg getting excited that someone had made a one handed quenelle. Maybe the wank police decided that they needed a new word.

And ferrero rocher are a very tricky skill to master. Especially the peeling off the top nutty layer and then scoffing the rest. I bet non of the masterchef contestant could do that with a box of em.

We don't have sky either, but sky living is on Virgin media. It's a good show, full of lots of extreme character and I am hooked. Can't cook to save my life, but am an expert at watching.

I watched My Kitchen Rules on Virgin last year with Lorraine Pascal and Jason Atherton. Is there a new UK one?
I also can't cook but expert viewer and eater!

Hey Davross. Another MKR viewer. Yayyy!

I'm watching the Australian one and got hooked on Alastair years one. It is very entertaining. There are some real idiots characters on it. You can get it on catch up on Virgin if you have that.

I never watched the UK one.

Hooked on Last years one. Don't know who Alastair is.

All ready for tonight? I assume we're going to see a couple more sent home so there will be four going into the finals and one poor sod gets sent away at the end of the first programme next week. Then the last three get to go and play with smoke and microherbs and so forth somewhere on the Continent.

All present and correct.

I'm here and I have quiche. Suck on that super tasters.

Evening. I missed last night so no idea what's going on, but they all seem to be still there...

No Jay?

I'm here. Hope this is a good one, I usually find the 30 min episodes disappointing

I really wish Gregg wouldn't say 'I'm excited'. Gives me bad thoughts.

Octopus and pineapple?

Love Paul, hope he's got his reassuring clams at the ready!

and his cute otter ears!

I don't fancy Charles Campion.
