I've had to start fast-forwarding the bits with Chloe and Kelly now.

I wish they did a "where are they now" catch up with the old contestants.

I'm sure they select at least one couple on the basis that the viewers will love to hate them, SURE of it. All the ads prior to the start of each season show the potential for bitching and fights, to draw the viewers in. And I'm pretty sure that they make them ramp it up for the cameras as well, just to add extra viewing spice.

I certainly feel as if they are being kept in, not ridiculously so, but just let off with certain things, like undercooked pizza dough. I think if David and Corine had have been averagely reasonable they would still be in but they were just too poor to keep.

I'm up to Monday's episode now, glad the Twins are still there, they are daft and a bit silly, but I like them (oh and I also like Greek food!)

Chloe and Kelly's comment about the twins bring cocky made me snort!!

Just finished yesterdays.

Why did they save them WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also what the heck can KElly be thinking with calling the Twins arrogant with all that 'we're the best'

I can't stand them!!!

I really don't like the food truck challenges. They pit the strongest teams against against each other. The only good thing is watching the two younger girls excel.

Kelly and Chloe have always needed lots of help in the truck challenges. They have made it clear that they put themselves first at the detriment of their "team", (they intentionally let Anna's fish get cold).

I'm starting to feel majorly peed off

There should be consequences for getting help from the other teams. They (mostly Kelly I note) lapped up the praise entirely for themselves.

Other thing I noted, going back to the deliberate keeping in of the 'nasty' couples that the twins (must remember their names - Helena and ?) got top presentation praise there wasn't one camera shot of Chloe and Kelly, when judges of the twins food is negative the camera focuses on Chloe and Kelly smirking)

This is not good for my blood pressure!!

I like the Twins and I'd like them to stay longer than Chloe and Kelly. Mostly because that'd annoy them something stupid (like that horrible man solicitor who had a incredible dislike of a two young friends - who were apparently also above themselves and smug - I was delighted when he went - though in that case I think his partner wasn't bad)

I'm definetly over invested!!

I'm just as invested as you Moln.

Kelly's smile really annoys me, it's so fake and all teeth, and her stupid stupid laugh sounds like a donkey.

They do everything Middle Eastern, have they not visited 42 countries? Expand.

I do think the editing is done poorly, always showing the twins pitted against the evil two.

MadgeMak · 17/07/2015 17:58

Yay! I have found my MKR people! I am so addicted to this show. I've got a bit of a crush one ole twinkly blue eyes pete.

Ellenora5 · 17/07/2015 19:32

Oh I remember that couple moln, he was a right nasty piece of work, and all they could cook were roast dinners, his partner wasn't too bad though.

It's unbelievable how Kelly and Chloe keep getting away with it, I also noticed when Harry and Christo were in the cook off Manu went over to them a couple of times to check they were ok but didn't bother with the other team, unless of course we didn't see it.

Bree and Jessica really couldn't handle the truck last night, and there starter really let them down, but K+C only did raw fish so no cooking involved.

Anna can be really mean to her mother, if she was my daughter I would let her know in no uncertain terms that I wouldn't be spoken to like that.

I'm sorry Uel and Shanelle are in the showdown again, they seem really sweet but they should try and break away from friends in the group challenges because they are quite good.

Now who's over invested Grin

Rainicorn · 17/07/2015 21:53

I don't get the mother daughter relationship. Anna was vile to her mum at the builders challenge, really awful.

Harry and Christo, I was surprised they lasted so long, their dishes weren't exactly MKR standards.

Ellenora5 · 22/07/2015 23:36

Hi all, just finished watching tonight's episode, noticed after a few minutes that Kelly and Chloe were missing, does anyone know why, they weren't in the trailer for tomorrow's show either Grin wonder are they gone for good, then again maybe one of them is sick or something, anyway heading off on my holiday in a few hours so won't be back to the thread for a couple of weeks, can't wait to see who wins Smile

Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 22/07/2015 23:40

I noticed they were missing too. Talk about a piece if paper between them. Shock

Ellenora5 · 22/07/2015 23:48

Ooh what do you mean marceline, like a newspaper article or something Grin did they slag each other off (crosses fingers in hope they turned on each other) Smile

Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 26/07/2015 13:39

The competition seems rigged. Last week it was average scores of 6/7 whereas next week it looks like an epic battle. They pitted the worse three against the best.

MarkingMyPlace9 · 26/07/2015 18:12

Omg the Brains that the Evil 2 cooked! They never specified what type of Brains they were, Sheep or something I hope lol

Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 26/07/2015 18:42

Chloe's Mum was I'll so they were given a week off.

Piece of paper between them was meant to mean the battle was fierce and not much in it between winning and losing teams.

DS couldn't wait to see who won - dislikes the C&K. I think their nasty shenanigans made the unpopular.

MarkingMyPlace9 · 28/07/2015 13:21

So we have our final 5! I would like the 2 Blokes to win - Paul and Blair I think? Everyone elses thoughts?
I am also liking the sound of this new Instant Restaurant round!!

Rainicorn · 28/07/2015 22:33

I though bred and Jess should have left, their curry dish wasn't as good as the quail. Annoying!

Rainicorn · 28/07/2015 22:33

*Bree

Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 29/07/2015 21:10

the curry was more ordinary but it must have been tastier. Gutted that Kelly and Chloe weren't up against Kathy and Anna or Bree and Jessica.

Just catching up now. I was out my house for over a week.

Currently on Chloe and Kelly's restursant didn't see their brain dish as for some reason it was the only episode that didn't record!!

Right I'm all caught up (two evenings of intensive viewing!)

Have to say off Bree and Jessica's menu, even before the food was seen, there would have been nothing I'd have wanted to eat!!

OP posts:
Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 31/07/2015 22:43

Menu wasn't up to much, shame they didn't all get the pigs cheeks.

Helena and Vikki tomorrow. I think Thalia and Bianca will go home. Shame cos they've done so well up to now.

WixingMords · 03/08/2015 21:25

Well that 5 wasn't scored out of nastiness was it. No not at all.

Marcelinewhyareyousomean · 04/08/2015 06:58

I think Bree/ whatsherface were quite harsh in their scoring too. Chloe and Kelly were remarkably smug, the twins smashed it. Thank goodness Pete and Manu are subjective.

I have a bad feeling about tonight.
