GBBO - opinions?

999 replies

What are people's opinions on the new Bake Off so far? And yes, I know we're only a few minutes in. IMO the new presenters feel a bit like they're trying a little too hard to be Mel and Sue.

Opinions?

lol Kate dropped her clanger n served them uncooked food.
Stacey fed with a pie with paper in it.

missyB1 · 17/10/2017 21:28

Bizarre! Kate was easily the worst, her showstopper was embarrassing! It’s beyond a joke that she is still there Confused

maddiemookins16mum · 17/10/2017 21:29

The worst thing with Liam going is that now I don't care who wins. I just hope it's Sophie as she's good and I prefer her to the others. I was really wanting Liam in the final.

missyB1 · 17/10/2017 21:33

I’m desperate for Sophie to win now. I’m not that keen on Stephen, and neither Kate or Stacey deserve to win.

Backingvocals · 17/10/2017 21:35

Really sad about that. Liam is amazing. Don’t care about any of the rest now Sad

acornsandnuts · 17/10/2017 21:43

Just hoping Liam will be snapped up for a cooking show and cook book like Nadia. He's got that likeability. Stuff you GBBO!

Twogirlsandme · 17/10/2017 21:46

Gutted that Liam went. 😢

ToothTrauma · 17/10/2017 21:49

I shrieked NOOOOO and the dog jumped up from the floor.

I hate stupid Smuggy Stephen and he will probably win now. I like Kate but she was clearly the worst today. Liam was robbed.

BadenBadenBadenBaden · 17/10/2017 21:51

Agree that Liam should not have gone! And I don't normally disagree with the decisions.

Summerisdone · 17/10/2017 21:55

I'm gutted Liam has gone, he's been my favourite since the beginning. I feel it's made even worse by the fact Stacey and Kate are still there when neither deserved to have gotten even this far.

Oh well hopefully Stephen will win now, Sophie's ok but just a bit too boring to have much of an opinion on her one way or the other.

bookbook · 17/10/2017 21:56

I was watching later, as I had to go out. I was able to ff through the ads . But that is a rubbish decision. , it should have been Kate that went , just not understandable at all stomps off ......

SchadenfreudePersonified · 17/10/2017 22:01

I think Kate is lovely, but she really, really should have got the bot this week.

How Stacey has turned round from being the one who should have been chucked off (but somehow wasn't) for the last umpteen weeks to being start baker (WHAT?!?!?!?!) this week, I don't know.

The whole thing was a travesty.

Sophie had the best showstopper, Liam wasn't the worst overall, though he did have a poor week (still better than I could do) and I can't bear the thought of Stacey going any further.

You'll have to excuse me now - I have a black armband to sew, and a small wax stacey-shaped doll to stick pins into.

(However I did like it when Liam said that in two years he'd have Paul's job. If I was Paul I'd be very afraid . . . )

*boot, bot bot

Star Cake Star
^^ that's liam's star baker trophy

FeedMyFaceWithPeanutButterCups · 17/10/2017 22:18

Bloody hate Stephen (so fucking snug 😡)
Really really wanted Liam to win it or at least top 3.
Kate had the worst week out of the lot, she should have gone!

Toddlerteaplease · 17/10/2017 22:35

So glad The annoying Steve didn’t get star baker again. Stacey has bee hiking on by the skin of her teeth and has been rubbish the last few weeks. I thought Kate would go. I like her so glad she’s not. So sad Liam won’t win.

Toddlerteaplease · 17/10/2017 22:39

I shouted noooo at the TV as well. My dD just looked at me like I’d grown two heads and my mum told me off for daring to wake the cat up!

Toddlerteaplease · 17/10/2017 22:39

*dad

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 17/10/2017 22:43

Gosh! Haven't been on this thread before today but I was really pleased for Stacey. Liam was bottom on the technical and really didn't impress with his showstopper. I'm sorry to see him go but it had to be either him or Kate and she came second on the technical.

I think there's a good chance that Sophie will win overall. She's very consistent. I'd be happy with a S3 final - Sophie, Stacey and Stephen.

inchyrablue · 17/10/2017 22:46

DDs have assured me there is no need to worry about Liam. He is "awesome and will do brilliantly" apparently.

secondhoneymoon · 18/10/2017 00:11

Just seen it and agree Kate should have gone. Liam has a fantastic personality, am sure we'll see him on TV again.

Ceto · 18/10/2017 00:14

Kate should certainly have one this week, they seem to have forgotten how well Liam did on the clanger bake.

I'm wondering if other people are watching the same programme WRT Stacey. She's done really well in several rounds, and has a great sense of humour. I really don't see how any of us can claim to know better than the judges which cake was best, given that we don't get to taste them.

"Liam has a fantastic personality, am sure we'll see him on TV again."

Yes, we will. On Thursday night. Grin

BeaLola · 18/10/2017 00:25

I fell off the sofa shouting Nooo as I was convinced it would be sloppy Kate. She must be shagging Paul to have got this far .
