Bake off 2022 thread to, to the final

[jay55]

Think they should all go home. And enjoy baking nice things instead.

Basically how he, PH loved Ireland and its soda bread and he must visit next year.
He said that a couple of times 🙄
Promoting his book.
Lots of favourable messages from fans.

I like Noel and vaguely fancy him as I think he's sweet. Matt though is SO unfunny, I actually cringe for him.

Can't bear PH's weird blue eyes or his arrogance.

All of this except I'm no longer watching, but keeping up via this thread because I am a Nosey Ole Bat and want to know what's happening.

I'm sorry that a gay person is not behaving in the way you want them to carly.

Thanks for popping on the thread and sharing your homophobia.

Oh! I'm gutted.

Not the first time I've leapt to someone's defence after a pile-on on here then new evidence turns up and it seems like the haters might have a point.

These are not the pictures of someone who is not in love with himself, are they?

Oh well...

@BishyBarnyBee - am not surprised at all.

There is way more to this guy than meets the eye even when just wrapped in a towel. I find him rather sinister.

Again I agree with you mrsthimbles

I can’t put my finger on it.

Noel was fine when Sandi Toksvig was there, but Matt Lucas is dreadful and it drags Noel down. PH is a caricature of himself now and so over critical, particularly as they’re being asked to do stupidly complicated stuff in less than optimum time. Prue is just there, but not making an impression.

Nor remotely an over-indulgence of self-adoration, no siree!

I dunno - attention-seeking is attention-seeking, no matter what your sexual preferences.

High heels aren't really kitchen-safe, are they?

See, I don't quite get this.

Smug I'll now concede - though it's worth remembering that both Jurgen and Syabira were also called smug on here, so maybe one woman's smug is another's just pleased to be winning.

But sinister? Where are you getting that? Unless you know something the rest of us don't, surely this is just a question of personal prejudice? What are you implying? Male nanny is sinister? Young black man is sinister? I think you need to be more specific or there's a risk that's saying more about you than about him.

He’s definitely competitive and ambitious but “sinister” is a stretch.

High heels aren't really kitchen-safe, are they?

I don't see why not - Fanny Craddock cooked in heels and a ball dress!

Anyway, Januczk was wearing chunky heeled boots, not towering stillettos and seemed to manage to avoid any health and safety risks.

@BishyBarnyBee - I’m not concerned about what people may think of me for considering him sinister. And I don’t have to explain my reasons for thinking this to you or anyone else. Not even when they think that mentioning prejudice will have me falling over myself to explain further lest I be thought of as a racist for eg.

My original opinion of Sandro stands.

Obviously, you have every right to make unpleasant insinuations on a public forum with absolutely no evidence whatsoever.

Equally, I have every right to ask if you have any basis for those accusations, or if they are just your personal gut feelings.

And Jonny was always p*ssed. I rest my case. (Plus I'm sure I saw him in stilettos on one of the adverts for the programme)

Sometimes we go with our gut. And we're usually wise to listen to it.

I agree there is something "off" about him. I don't know that I would describe it as "sinister", but there is something I find unsettling.

I would love to have seen Fanny on Bake Off. PH would have been relegated to second fiddle (spatula?) pdq.

My nan’s across the road neighbour was a ‘Fanny’.

My nan and her next door neighbour were Cissies and Adas.

There was always a PH snaking round the pub lounge instead of being in the public bar.

Aye. I’m that old!!! 😁

Me and my mate have realised we are turning into Cissie and Ada! 😂

I’ve been Ada for quite some time - including the face 🙂. I have a MN friend who is my Cissie.

I suspect we are legion missy 😊

LOL!!!

I\d love to have an "over-the-backyard-wall" natter with the two of you!

Ooooh! I will forget that sharp brick!

<rubs enormous bosom>

Nothing better than a hoik and a reshuffle moshviper 😘

😂😂😂

Mr mosh keeps saying he'll grind it down but never gets round to it (I assume he means the brick . . . )

🤣🤣
