Young POsh Woman to Win Masterchef

[pointydog]

So I've started watching Masterchef LArging It with the kids.

And John Torode is really starting to get on my wick. First off, he put through plummy pretty pert Harriet even though he admitted that someone else had made the best plate of food ever.

I'm thinking, is he a sexist lizard-eyed blurke?

Then today, he puts through semi-plummy pretty pert Natasha even though Greg disagreed once more, her goat's cheese tart had nothing to it, she mixed rice with grapefruit and neither of them liked her pudding.

So. I can now predict that Harriet will win Masterchef.

How old would you guess Gregg to be though?

His MySpace profile claims he is 28 (or 29, I forget and can't be bothered to check)

[foxinsocks]

lol

I reckon he's late 30s/early 40s surely

[Molesworth]

I would've guessed at 36

[foxinsocks]

yeah, I reckon John's around 40 and Gregg's around 38ish.

[pointydog]

wow, I thought greg was older than that. I'm with you though, moles, I do have a soft spot for him.

And adad, you are right, the thick tongue thing is revolt and sickable.

[aDad]

SURELY they must both be late 30s at least!

28 / 29 my proverbial

[foxinsocks]

I do tend to agree more with what Gregg says (and at least most of his comments bear resemblance to the food in front of him)

but you know if he gets given a good pud, he'll get your vote

e.g. you could see that Gerry was going to be voted off this week (in the quarter final) because he was too in-yer-face arrogant for John!

[TwoIfBySea]

I'd still like clarification on what a "clean plate of food" is. That is what I expect after the food is eaten not before.

[Tinker]

Was Gerry the "management consultant" from Norn Irun? (I miss the Friday show) Didn't like him just because he was a "management consultant"

Gregg is 29? and double

[foxinsocks]

I am absolutely that they got rid of John tonight before he even cooked! I thought he was one of their faves!

this week they've really gone with the best cooks the whole way through (perhaps they read the thread pointy )

felt sorry for Hayley tonight (though pleased Hannah got it) - she looked devastated

[foxinsocks]

and, wow, that tiramisu looked divine (hope they do recipes on their site!)

[RTKangaMummy]

I deffo agreed with their result tonight

[foxinsocks]

I wonder if Hayley is a mumsnetter - perhaps she will see this and join

[Molesworth]

Is Masterchef filmed in the summer? All the contestants look tanned and are wearing summer clothes.

Really pleased that Hannah won. She looks like a character from Upstairs Downstairs

[LIZS]

Think the heats were last summer. I remember lasts series the later round contestants used "seasonal" produce which was deifnitely autumnal.

Loved the look of the tiramisu !

[Molesworth]

The 'tomato water' was an interesting idea - never heard of that before!
