I wonder if they get to practice with the ovens first. It took me ages to get used to my new one. I kept burning things and they needed totally different temperatures to the old one.

Me, Grouchy

I think Lee will go home :(

Remayne

Average is it Stu Heritage with Guardian? He's hilarious!

Zebra-

Whose eyes are nice?

The woman with the seville oranges (garden designer? Looks like she was in the hockey 1st eleven at school) does that Keira Knightly thing with her lower jar.

Thought Kate was mashing some peas there for a minute.

Yes, Grouchy, I look at their attempts and just go - 'No, it's not happening'. Genoese sponges are definitely on that list!

Kate seems sweet - all swallows rhubarb and gooseberries

So, Farmer Woman swallows...

I've learnt Lee's name.
Pointless really.

grouchy I'm googling recipes for lemon and pistachio drizzle cake after round one! I guess I'm a bit inspired.

Nice eyes boy is him wot just dropped the cake!

I really do not like Candice. But fear she will stay.

Tom, aka Eddie Remayne has nice eyes. Dark green top

OMG my heart nearly stopped when he dropped that sponge.

Raahh, my thoughts exactly.

Is Lee the older guy? He's not very good

Roussette It's Heidi I think?

Soup naughty naughty

Ooh, Mel has gone for a bold lip too today.
I likey.

Showstopper round is disastrous so far.

Not keen on Candice and the Swallow women.

WHY do they not have enough freezers? Not this again, please!

Rahhhh I think you might be right.

Cannot believe the amount who are having to redo 2 or 3 things in the first week!

Do like Kate though she seems very down to earth.
