squooshGrin I was waiting for you to say that now I know we are truly in the GBBO swing!

Waltermittythesequel · 17/08/2016 10:39

Yes, I thought I'd missed it too amble.

I'm more relieved than I should be that I haven't! Grin

ArmySal · 17/08/2016 11:05

I'm so excited, can't wait for it Smile

SapphireStrange · 17/08/2016 11:09

I think the only reason they do it in summer is so that they can have the 'fete' at the end outdoors. although it sometimes looks a bit cold and windswept anyway

Waltermittythesequel · 17/08/2016 11:29

Yy.
I wonder if it'll be indoors now.

ImYourMama · 17/08/2016 11:33

This is the perfect pregnancy TV, no alcohol involved, very easy watching and inspiration for what to make when I'm on Mat Leave GrinBrewCake

MiddleClassProblem · 17/08/2016 11:53

No alcohol? Isn't that how you get the Berry vote Wink

Jasonandyawegunorts · 17/08/2016 12:02

no alcohol involved

Remember when dame edna was on it?

SapphireStrange · 17/08/2016 12:24

That was the sleb one, though. All bets are off on those. Grin

ImYourMama · 17/08/2016 12:30

Cooking with booze is fine, all the actual alcohol burns off, show me the mojito macaroons Wink

LemonBreeland · 17/08/2016 15:43

I love GBBO. I also loved Howard custardgate. But my best moment was Kathryn, 'I can't serve Mary Berry green carpet!'

IHaveBrilloHair · 19/08/2016 06:43

Lemon
Dd and I still hoot with laughter at that, it was our favourite series.
Does anyone know if there's somewhere I can find out what the theme of each episode is so I can plan food in advance.

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2016 08:52

The bake off BBC website releases it week by week. It says of the first week:
The group first take on a British classic and are then faced with Mary's technical challenge - a popular little cake with a fatless sponge and tricky chocolate work. Finally, the bakers have the opportunity to show the judges what they can do with their showstopper.

LemonRedwood · 19/08/2016 09:28

The first weeks are usually cakes/bread/biscuits I think

LemonRedwood · 19/08/2016 09:32

No, sorry, make that cake/biscuits/bread

MiddleClass's link shows the episodes from the previous series and it's been that for the first three weeks for the past few years.

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2016 09:38

My link is for series 7, this series

IHaveBrilloHair · 19/08/2016 09:59

Thanks, I'll assume it's cakes first then.

SapphireStrange · 19/08/2016 10:06

My system says the first week is cake week.

CAN'T WAIT.

LemonRedwood · 19/08/2016 10:20

MiddleClass I clicked on episodes at the top and it had all previous series there.

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2016 10:40

Yup, because that's a like to previous episodes. The page it's on is this series week one. Only need to click on show more for more under the text for series 7 ep 1. You do t need to click to any other pages...

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2016 10:41

*don't

LemonRedwood · 19/08/2016 11:19

I know Middle, I was only referring to your link as to where I'd checked my info as to it being cake then biscuits then bread. This is what they've done consistently for a few years.

MiddleClassProblem · 19/08/2016 11:34

Oh ok, I thought you meant it was just old eps and couldn't find the series 7 bit x

LemonRedwood · 19/08/2016 11:45

Sorry, I didn't explain very clearly in my first post!
