It's going to start getting serious soon. Bring on the mass catering challenge!

And so say all of us, @MrsTommyBanks.
Just been catching up on yesterday's cook's challenge and got to Jim's goat cheese extravaganza.
John: many reservations.
Greg: "Lahrvlee!!"
Don't think I've ever seen the camera dwelling so lovingly on John's wide-eyed before.

Side-eye not wide-eyed.
Even when I preview, the phone thinks it knows better.
Going off to watch the Terminator series.

Oh well.
Didn't much like Steve (wanted to; I'm Welsh and I don't get back there much) but... dear goodness! I couldn't take to him. The sniveling and the banging on on about family members. And his dish wasn't great. No better, no worse than Jim's.
But...
Urgh. Jim. Creeps me out and I'm not sure why. Is it his excessive philtrum?
Gasp!
John also had a large philtrum!

Conspiracy-Stories-R-Us

"has" not "had".

Godsake!

(mess that up, phone)

Interesting. OH is convinced they always want a young winner to open a restaurant and carry on the MC name.
I've always said that it's on merit.
Now they spilt the teams down by age and the winning team gets through.
OH may need an apology. They could have been split so many ways but by a major demographic? Boys Vs Girls, anyone?

Star signs in the first vs those in the latter half of the alphabet perhaps. Picking straws? Maybe both a little less pointed.

Sorry for the random wittering but I'm a terrible charterer.
JIM! You Bastard!
No dessert!
You prick!

I can't even spell the V sauce so can't give vent to how RUBBISH that was!

Poor Alex! "She's great desserts".
So, yes, try to spike her why don't you.

Having grumbled about the ageism, the older team were not team players and the younger team were more adaptable and seemed more like team players.
Or do I just loathe the love doctor (I do) and Jim (I do)?.

Jim! You... you...you....

I have swear words in several different languages and they're not enough.

Blue team win.
Big surprise.
Maybe older people aren't adaptable.(Aww! Really?)
Kudos to the winning team.

Okay. I can now spell "velouté" at speed.
Off to grapple with recording next MCs as I'm away for a few days (and need it, it seems ).
Bon appetit!

@LaMarschallin, we started a new thread because of the danger of running out partway through the extra episode - see you over HERE

In hopes that Jim gets his just...er...desserts.....

I have just watched on catchup.

Am I right in thinking that Greggg is even more patronising and insufferable than usual in the final cook-off? He seemed outstandingly wanky.

Or am I just becoming extra sensitive?

Outstandingly wanky is about right Schaden he’s also been extra wanky on inside the factory lately

Thank you Wolf

I thought it may be my age-induced intolerance kicking in, but it IS him.

I sometimes think that it's hating Greggg so much that keeps me alive . . .
