How fit is Candace's boyfriend??

Marbleheadjohnson · 26/10/2016 20:57

Was going to say the same, SandysMam. hubba. candice definitely wins there

StepfauxWife · 26/10/2016 20:58

Oh boo. Nobody can beat Nadiya's victory speech!

CaptainMarvelDanvers · 26/10/2016 20:58

I turned into the demon from the exorcist after Candice was declared the winner.

GrouchyKiwi · 26/10/2016 20:58

Oh bless. Jane and Candice = BFFs.

Roussette · 26/10/2016 20:59

I cant imagine Candice and Jane on a roadtrip together!!

Soubriquet · 26/10/2016 20:59

Nice to see Candice and Jane are still good friends

GrouchyKiwi · 26/10/2016 20:59

My baby has just woken up. She is such a good girl, waiting till the show is finished.

Candice's chap is not my type, so they'll be pleased about that.

Backingvocals · 26/10/2016 21:00

I think she did really well. They were all great but she was the best today I think.

ShowOfHands · 26/10/2016 21:00

Oh Andrew Sad

BaggyCheeks · 26/10/2016 21:01

I love the idea of Val in Ayia Napa.

RebootYourEngine · 26/10/2016 21:01

I didnt think I was overly bothered about who won but i feel quite pissed off and annoyed.

Paul and mary a little have been biased towards Candice throughout. I am glad it is going to die on channel 4.

StepfauxWife · 26/10/2016 21:01

What's the bet that a tv crew will follow Candice and Jane on their road trip?!

ClaraLane · 26/10/2016 21:02

I've heard that Val is going to be on I'm A Celebrity

Roussette · 26/10/2016 21:03

I think candice will bring out a new lipstick range with lots of dark colours...
Bakewell tart
Blueberry gloss
chocolate fudge

You mark my words Grin

fourquenelles · 26/10/2016 21:03

Now that's a plan Stepfaux

If they'd have been given a proper amount of time it would have been nice to see some actual show stopping bakes. I wasn't a fan of the final challenge at all (although I would happily have eaten all the cheese scones and sausage rolls).

ample · 26/10/2016 21:04

There will be a tv series for sure

ColdTeaAgain · 26/10/2016 21:04

I warmed to Candice over the last few shows. Really didn't like her to start with! She does put on a bit of an act I think but maybe that's just her way of dealing with feeling uncomfortable on tv.

I would of preferred Jane to win as she's so genuine but Candice definitely put 100% into every challenge of the series.

Overall just glad it wasn't Andrew. Can't quite put my finger on it but there's something about him I don't like. The sort of person I wouldn't trust instinctively.

Raahh · 26/10/2016 21:05

Baggy Val in Ayia Napa is surely worthy of a series of it's own Grin.

It's good she wasn't in the final- can you imagine her trying to make all that stuff on time?. I think she would have just given up, and got drunk in the corner of the tent. Grin

emotionsecho · 26/10/2016 21:06

I like the idea of Candice and Jane on a road trip together, I thought overall Candice deserved to win.

Fedupofallthemud · 26/10/2016 21:06

Did anyone else notice when Candice finally managed to speak she said "what an opportunity" which I thought was a bit odd

TheSpottedZebra · 26/10/2016 21:06

Isn't Candice's chap a crim? it was in the mail. Ages ago, which really in hindsight is a clue that she'd won.

Soubriquet · 26/10/2016 21:06

Yes! Not just me that feels this way! Dh says the same thing. Not sure what it is

ample · 26/10/2016 21:06

I am not a professional baker (ahem..just putting that out there) but I thought the whole series through, that the timings were unreasonable. I mean competition unreasonable. Just not doable.
