Assemble gang, its back!!

@Halsall

Pebble I think it’s cunningly-cut trousers. He was distinctly rotund last week, DH and I thought.

Rotund 🤣

I see they are going for the masterchef Australia approach

Some very pretty women on tonight.
I think there should be more blind tasting, stops jonty and greggg picking their favourites over the critics.

Fish and chips basically

Listen, Leon, there's no sodding thing as too much food at a family gathering.

Yep it should be tasted without them knowing who cooked

Dead parent alert so early - has he peaked too soon?

Mmmm. Burnt chor-it-so.

Holly is almost a contestant for Professional masterchef

Dad card. Tick
Homage. Tick.
Holly is annoying me already.

As he was filling that jug to the top, why the hell did he have to crouch down to look - ah I know, for effect.

Oh, beg pardon, Holly. Some of that must have been black pudding. As you were.

I don't want to hear about dead dad this early

Evening all! Missed you last week.

Cod wars, Gregg. They gave it to you on a sodding plate.

I love love love cod but don't piss it off by adding black pudding etc

Pan fried is perfect on a good day, cover it in batter first for a bad day, can't beat it

Evening all. I'm a bit late.

I'll have to watch tomorrow on catchup too.

I haven't missed much tonight so far by the look of it.

The contestants all seem a bit more 'reality television' this year. Where's the grans and the middle-aged mums with years of knowledge and handed-down recipes?

They’re never bloody satisfied. One minute the flavours are too bland; the next minute they’re moaning that they might be too big and bold.

Make your minds up, twazzocks!

Cod wars, Gregg. They gave it to you on a sodding plate.

Yes!

Not warming to tall thin lipped Irish man.

Immediately warmed to Tigi and Stephanie but they will probably turn out to be awful people so good is my judgement.

I hate the way the other contestants sit on stools commenting on food being cooked by someone they didn't meet until about an hour ago. It's trying to be GBM but without the professional chefs and the relationships.

That's not much of a portion of chips.

It's fish and chips ffs
