I like Selasi. I don't think he's smug, I think he's just laid back

Raahh · 24/08/2016 20:57

poor Lee. Fair result, but please can Candice go next week?

Weasley brother - that made us roar! Grin

Madbengalmum · 24/08/2016 20:58

Raahh, can we vote Candice out next week?

HalsallRedux · 24/08/2016 20:58

Well, they're not the 12 best amateur bakers in the country, Paul, because not all the amateur bakers in the country applied and were judged. Go figure.

Roussette · 24/08/2016 20:58

Great start. I'm not around for a few weeks but will catch up on my return!

GrouchyKiwi · 24/08/2016 20:58

Biscuit construction. You'll all be delighted. Grin

AverageGayLad · 24/08/2016 20:59

Next week looks good :)

Raahh · 24/08/2016 20:59

Biscuits- but not jaffa cakes. Grin

Oh goody- ginger bread structures!!

PurpleDaisies · 24/08/2016 20:59

Oh, Viennese whirls next week! I absolutely love those.

Raahh · 24/08/2016 20:59

Mad- we can do our own vote. And seethe when we are ignored.

SoupDragon · 24/08/2016 20:59

Candace, Val and Welsh Woman annoy me this year. The guy with the kirsch is also up there.

Raahh · 24/08/2016 21:00

yay! Extra slice. Love it!

Madbengalmum · 24/08/2016 21:00

Raahh, sounds good. I think we are going to have to deal with her lipstick for a while though!

MiddleClassProblem · 24/08/2016 21:01

There's no one I hate unlike last year with that boy with the hair who went first.

Right person went, val did good. Last year Nadiya was my winner from day dot but I don't have that this year. Think it will be a year when it changes all the time who is star baker.

Raahh · 24/08/2016 21:01

My mum makes mince pies with a viennese topping. They are lovely. Trouble is, she gets mithered to make dozens of them.

NotPennysBoat · 24/08/2016 21:03

Don't forget 'Nice Eyes'

MiddleClassProblem · 24/08/2016 21:05

I'm now going to sob into the rest of my cake watching long lost family. Great chat team bake off!

Budgiebonbon · 24/08/2016 21:05

Right result tonight I think.

Loving Selasi, Rav, Benjamin & Weasly Bros. Strangely distracted by Candices lipstick.

Hassled · 24/08/2016 21:08

Loved Selasi - so cool and sweet. And I liked Posh Spice too - she seemed nice.

MarvinGorilla · 24/08/2016 21:09

Jane looks so much like Bradley Wiggins, twas v distracting.

ClaraLane · 24/08/2016 21:10

Kate = Swallow Woman/Farmer Woman

Raahh · 24/08/2016 21:12

Bradley Wiggins GrinGrin

Dolly80 · 24/08/2016 21:14

Bradley Wiggins followed by swallow woman has made me chuckle.

Are we currently calling Andrew both Eddie Redmayne and a Weasley Brother? Eddie Weasley!

I like Benjamina, she seems nice and also competent.

FilmaWlintstone · 24/08/2016 21:15

Sorry if I'm repeating but the woman who kept listening to her cakes cracked me up Grin
