Following on from the first thread (we were getting a bit short on space!).

Pastry week next - it's time for the dreaded soggy bottoms!

Leaving sugar out in final bake? Uber fail!

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 07/10/2015 20:29

oh I think nadiya might be doing ok, her buns were good and now her millefeuille

Obs2015 · 07/10/2015 20:30

They were all awful.
Nadiya was the least awful.

Roussette · 07/10/2015 20:31

It was when I had a lot more time on my hands and they really were not very good!

Trumpton · 07/10/2015 20:32

Lemon Drizzle !,

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 07/10/2015 20:33

sticky toffee pudding is not a classic British bake...! It's a school pud.

GrouchyKiwi · 07/10/2015 20:33

Looking good for Nadiya.

I don't like the sound of Tamal's cake. Sad

Stickerrocks · 07/10/2015 20:36

Does Ian remind anyone else of the chap in the Fast Show who used to boast about fabulous things in his lovely kitchen & casually say "which was nice."

GrouchyKiwi · 07/10/2015 20:37

Of course Ian lives in a house like that.

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 07/10/2015 20:37

his children are very cute though

dementedma · 07/10/2015 20:37

Ian' house! I want....

dementedma · 07/10/2015 20:39

Nadya's husband is a cutie!

thatstoast · 07/10/2015 20:40

Can someone remind me what Ian does for a living? That glimpse into his home life has reminded me of an old hippy friend from uni.

GrouchyKiwi · 07/10/2015 20:42

Nadiya's family is beautiful.

I love a good lemon drizzle cake. Nadiya's is the only one I want to eat.

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 07/10/2015 20:42

he's a travel photographer, I think.

He seems quite nervous this week, not surprising I guess.

Kampeki · 07/10/2015 20:42

Ian's kids were adorable - loved them sitting in the pans!

Nadiya's husband and kids also seemed lovely. Really want her to win!

Roussette · 07/10/2015 20:43

Nadiya's husband was particularly... ummmm... handsome Grin

Obs2015 · 07/10/2015 20:43

I too think Nadiya will win

Raahh · 07/10/2015 20:45

I love seeing their families. I love that about bake off- the final brings everybody back together.

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 07/10/2015 20:46

Yes I think Nadiya has it!

There's not been much in the way of puns or innuendo this episode. I guess it's all a bit too serious.

I liked Nadiya's daughter just listing all the cakes she liked.

GrouchyKiwi · 07/10/2015 20:47

Nadiya very calm and collected, unlike the blokes.

Raahh · 07/10/2015 20:47

I think Nadiya may have it.

Oh, Ian is cryingSad

Dolly80 · 07/10/2015 20:47

Nadiya's cheeky little 'happy Paul' comment has made me love her even more

dementedma · 07/10/2015 20:47

Awwww Ian! Bless. He needs a hug...

thatstoast · 07/10/2015 20:48

Travel Photographer is perfect.

I think I'm behind everyone this year, they're all very good.
