Masterchef - off we go again!

[Roussette]

Here we are!

Glad Pedro has gone.
I loves Marcus

What's up with his fingers?

Dish of the day - Marcus Wareing!

A final smoking / burnt cream seems to be this years pomegranate .
I bet Josh is feeling a tad peeved off,his dish last night was better or on par with some who got through tonite.
Nature of the beast i suppose - which team you get put with.
Speaking of Marcus why do they get all giddy when a celeb chef walks in, haven't they seen the show before - stockholm syndrome,perhaps .

Marcus and John to host Masterchef without Gregg.

SheHas Agreed

But then who would we laugh at??

Back from being away, have caught up on some of the episodes, glad Pedro was out last night, did he really sous vide an egg yolk and put it on toast or have I got that wrong?!

Anyone any idea how long this all goes on for... there's 10 left I think, but I have got very confused with it all ...

p.s. what's up with Marcus's fingers... I shall look tonight feel a bit out the loop

I am appalled at people clambering to perv over MY MARCUS! Clear off the lot of ya, and go perv at Ainsley Harriott instead. Marcus does not appreciate your attentions. He told me so when I checked on him in the basement half an hour ago. Took me ages to get the padlock open.

Last night's restaurant chef was so much nicer than the twonk from Wednesday night. See, twonky chef from Wed, it doesn't take much to be pleasant and supportive.

Delighted (but a bit surprised) that Pedro went. Eggs and mushrooms on toast indeed. Ugh, you ain't no Heston. You're more look like Chico from ye olden X Factor.

I think the Manchester woman will go next. Everything she cooks seems to be a posh version of a Sunday lunch. It all looks nice, but a bit samey.

Love the younger girl who looks like a Pixar mouse, such an endearing face. Like most of them actually.

I think the final will be Annie, Juanita, and bloke with glasses.

I like most of them too!

We're now down to:

Annie, the half-French actress - I agree she could be in the final
Juanita, half-Maltese web content woman - ditto
Jack, the bearded bespectacled chappie - ditto
Billy, the unbearded, unbespectacled chappie who I reckon has about hit his ceiling
Jane, mother of four, chronic giggler, ditto
Liz, northern-sounding company director - doing well but needs to step it up a bit
Stuart, improbably tall and moustachio-ed research scientist - ditto
Jen, the endearing mousy one - mortgage adviser? - could be accelerating
Natasha, endearing slightly bigger one - publishing director? She looks far too young to be a director of anything, but astonishingly young people are now being given positions of responsibility, says past it 54yo crone woman in her prime - anyway, she's another one gettting into her stride now

I luffs the young shy girl who looks scared witless, she did something thai or vietnamese last night, to me she's got hidden depths oooh don't I sound like I know what I' talking about!
I thought Natasha's trifle was a bit simple, can't help it but blonde lady with 4 kids annoys me for some reason, and emotional crying woman last night started off on a high but seems to be going downhill.

Squoosh you can have Marcus, he does nothing for me (but will check out his fingers tonight, just in case )

Marcus is gorgeous, but I am far too frightened of squoosh to do anything more than admire him from afar when she lets him out her cellar .

They showed a lovely still picture of Jen on her wedding day at one point. I'd be delighted if she won, but at the moment I have no strong feelings either way about any of them. It could be easily be Jack, as he's hardly put a foot wrong so far.

Don't mess with the Squoosh!

Jack is the dead spit of a relation of mine, I nearly fell off my chair thinking it was him on Masterchef!

I'd forgotten Annie, I like her too!

Can I gate crash?
I like Annie was really impressed with Amy though. Thought she would struggle in really kitchen but did brilliantly.
Is it on again tonight?

Yep 8.30 tonight icklekid

Squoosh I tried to warn them you would not be happy, but would they listen, no, they would not

I thought of this thread when Juanita said Marcus had beautiful eyes! Wonder if she's on MN?

Think it'll be Juanita, Jack and Jen in the final.

Lost this thread so marking place. I'm an episode (or two) behind.

Is it just me, or is it weird that those 5 who cooked "amazing" dishes and were straight through the first knock-out episode should have all cooked together? Surely they want the best to get through and should thus have mixed them up a bit more?

Was impressed/pleased with Marcus' reactions to Juanita and Natasha's dishes. I like Jack too.

Are we all sitting comfortably

Yes! And I've just eaten a humungous sized curry so won't be drooling much

Good woman Roussette

I had chipstix on bread and butter

Evening!

Having wifi issues but I'll do my best....

But could do with a pud ellen and pear frangipan is floating my boat
