Couldn't see a thread on this already so just posted to say it is back on Tuesday 28th August.

Less than 2 weeks to go. Yippee!

That must have been a tough call. Poor Imelda looked as if she was shaking when they were about to announce who was out.

LemonRedwood · 28/08/2018 21:14

I haven't decided which one is going to annoy me this year. Which is unusual!

Roussette · 28/08/2018 21:16

Terry comes across as quite sweet I think

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/08/2018 21:16

Ah - I see lemon - you're right, that's far from being Gordon Ramsay.

Toofie - Grin - it's like you know the very recesses of my hard, icy heart

mumdebump · 28/08/2018 21:16

Ruby is annoying as hell already. She was never in any danger of going home and she knew it.

LEMtheoriginal · 28/08/2018 21:16

Omg thankyou i need this so much as i recieved bad news today and needed the diatraction . Watching on c4+1

Yayyy bake off

Livedandlearned2 · 28/08/2018 21:17

Rousette I'm booking extra slice so I can look for you.

I reckon Paul will fancy Manon and I like Briony, no hates so far, but it won't be long until someone bugs me.

southeastdweller · 28/08/2018 21:18

Ruby might be the one who pisses me off throughout the series if she continues with the disingenuous comments.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/08/2018 21:18

She was shaking cariad - I get sorry for her (bloody hell! that''s TWICE - has someone taken the sliver of ice out of my eye or something?)

Roussette · 28/08/2018 21:20

Lived I never realised we would be sat more or less in the front and every time I looked at me on the camera when it panned round, I cringed Grin
Just bear in mind I am officially OLD, (adult DCs!)

whatashower · 28/08/2018 21:20

What a well-connected bunch of mners. (Doffs cap and shuffles backward out of the tv room respectfully).

Will sleep on it but slightly worried like rockbird that they are all just a little too annoying this time around.

Also wondering if I can nip round to Noels and glue his hair back on. 😢

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/08/2018 21:22

Get rid of that shirt while you're there shower - burn it or something!

cariadlet · 28/08/2018 21:24

@AndNoneForGretchenWieners

Which one? You know you can tell us - we won't say anything.

MyRelationshipIsWeird · 28/08/2018 21:26

Wasn’t a huge surprise Rousette! Feel sorry for Imelda. I think they should all get two weeks and then send two home, then they can get first episode nerves out of the way and nobody has to be “first out”!

brizzledrizzle · 28/08/2018 21:28

Sky stopped working! Just watching it now :-(
Kim-Joy is odd.
Bristol has traditional easter biscuits...they should have made those.

whatashower · 28/08/2018 21:29

schaden I think the ^shirt^ will be back at Sandi's, as surely it is her maxi kaftan, borrowed in some emergency (unshown footage). Whatever, its another thing that can only improve next week, just like Terry's baking and Ruby's faux sympathy 😀

IGiorni · 28/08/2018 21:31

Kim-Joy will irritate me I think, the “I’m so quirky” persona is a bit contrived. Not sure about Bryony, she’s maybe a bit too cutesy. Don’t think Ruby’s used to criticism!
Quite like the young Yorkshire lad but don’t think he’ll last that long. Anthony and Manon are my favourites so far.
Any predictions for a winner?

Roussette · 28/08/2018 21:34

I think Bryony is good. I think it could have been either Terry or Imelda. Her biscuits were good! Whereas Terry only just hung on

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/08/2018 21:39

I like Anthony and Manon, too - and Jon.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/08/2018 21:41

I think your "two weeks" is a good idea weird. Seems a shame that anyone should go because they are nervous.

It was so close between, imelda and Terry.

brizzledrizzle · 28/08/2018 21:43

Kim-Joy is the sort I can imagine as a real do-gooder type that would irritate the hell out of me.

iklboo · 28/08/2018 21:47

Just finished watching. Terry's showstopper face wouldn't look out of place on Game of Thrones. Maybe Arya can fill in for him next week Grin

HildaZelda · 28/08/2018 21:48

Aw poor old Imelda. She was shaking. Felt sorry for her. I like Terry and Rahul. Think Karen may be a bit smug. I'm not sure about Briony.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 28/08/2018 21:50

cariad Luke

NameChangedAgain18 · 28/08/2018 21:58

cocolepew - OMG, yes! I was trying to think what that ghastly picture from Friends was called, but I said the same thing to DH when I saw the biscuit picture.

Is it me, or does Noel look different? He seems to have the look of Late Elvis this year?
