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 like Emma. Like her food too. Emma to win!

Very sorry about Sarah, but on last night's showing she had to go. So five in Finals Week! Another change from previous years.

Yes, he is one of those Sitwells, btw. At least he admitted he loved Tony's pudding, even though he loathes BFG (oddball - how could anybody not love black forest gateau?).

Yes, Emma to win! Em-ma! Em-ma!

Shitwell really was on form wasn't he?!

I hate black Forest gateau sorry!!

And I hate Black Forest gateau as well. And any combination of chocolate and orange.

ie no choc and cherries for me, and no choc and orange either!

I love chocolate and orange but hate chocolate and mint.

I'm the opposite, adore mint choc but can't stand chocolate and orange. Chocolate and orange do not go well together.

One day the world will agree.

You are all wrong, of course. Chocolate doesn't go with apple or pineapple or grapefruit, but there are very few other fruits it doesn't go well with. Chocolate and mint is a marriage made in heaven.

Chocolate and mint YAYY! As long as it's dark chocolate and it's cold from the fridge.

Nothing goes well with grapefruit except high cholesterol and the need to drop a few pounds.

Concur re chocolate orange. They'll all see sense one day.

I know I'm supposed to love dark chocolate but I'm a milk chocolate girl at heart. I have a pleb's palate.

Chocolate orange is lovely as is mint choc

Any other chocolate combination like strawberry , cherry, raspberry are all definitely wrong!

I woke up in the middle of the night and could only remember four of the finalists.

So this helpful Guardian crib is essentially just for me.

(I'm an iPlayer watcher so try to avoid the thread during broadcasts.)

Thanks Footle, I did not know that! Fascinating to think a piece of fruit could interfere with statins.

My knowledge of grapefuits is limited to: eye wateringly bitter fruit that my mum was fond of in the 1980's!

So tonight they've got to create a dish to commemorate Churchill, according to my TV book.

So which will do a canelloni stuffed with chocolate soil with some white stuff at the tip. And maybe some red sprinkles?

Anyone does, they're out

Evening all!

Canelloni cigar and bovril posing as a brandy.

I could be on Masterchef.

Look at the git in the gittish hat!

Yeah! Micro herbs. How I have missed you my old friends.

I don't think the cheese and marmite ban was with Largactil. I thought it was MAOI antidepressants but I could be wrong.
These dishes are poncey. I bet Churchill wouldn't have liked them.
