BBC 2 8pm tonight (feb 1st) Tom Kerridge is one of the new judges.

Can't wait to see some soil and steam and shoehorned themes.

I suppose they could say any dish is a tribute to masterchef/come dine with me/kitchen nightmares/Saturday kitchen 😂😂😂

Have beardy beards now been replaced by topiary haircuts?

I'll be very disappointing if the Grange Hill dish does not have a sausage on a fork as part of it...

Anyone else disappointed that the dish inspired by The Office isn’t a stapler in jelly??

I don't recall ever seeing ducks on Grange Hill.

They’re just making links up. I think they’ve assumed it is ‘the name of the dish has been inspired by’ and then just cook what they want. Hmmmm

Very pretty flower arranging but like many of these dishes how is this complicated presentation going to work at a banquet?

lettingthedaysgoby · 22/02/2022 20:21

I can't help feeling that the Chelsea Flower Show and (particularly) Derren Brown don't scream "BBC" - more "I've got this dish I'm really proud of so I'll shoehorn a tenuous connection to the brief in"

How are you all watching this

littlbrowndog · 22/02/2022 20:22

Omg

Stillcrikey · 22/02/2022 20:23

Well personally, I’m watching it with a glass of wine and some Pringles 🤣

littlbrowndog · 22/02/2022 20:23

I know bbc Scotland sent me mad

lettingthedaysgoby · 22/02/2022 20:24

Blimey, that's a whole meal not a starter!

If anyone on Grange Hill took that in in their lunch box, they'd have been wearing it.

Dull dish this

littlbrowndog · 22/02/2022 20:28

Cauliflower expressing its self. 🤣🤣🤣🤣👏

fourquenelles · 22/02/2022 20:28

Are you happy with the way the cauliflower is expressing itself throughout the dish? Calling Pseud's Corner

fourquenelles · 22/02/2022 20:29

I'm not impressed with any of these really. The flower looked amazing but sounded wet.
