Ah she's just cracked a smile, OK @lettingthedaysgoby I'm thinking it's nerves

Floofydawg · 14/02/2023 20:30

Well they were all a bit shite. No one's getting those to the banquet.

Barry's Discount Toy's has had a blinder on the fireman's helmets this week

Last time they sold that many there was a male strippers' convention in town.

Bit more variety in the scores this week

I'm thinking about how brilliant Spencer was last year, or about chefs like Hrishikesh who never even made it to finals' week despite being far more exciting than this.

JazzyGeoff · 14/02/2023 20:36

The standard over the last few weeks was so much better than this. I really hope they up their game, it seems so unfair that chefs who didn't get through from other regions could be pipped by the best of a bad bunch.

You like smoke, do you, Westy? Let me introduce you to Arsonist Andy.

The same happens on Masterchef The Professionals - where you think they could even things up based on auditions (assuming there are auditions).

Super behind, total damp squib, the best not even close to the worst in previous two rounds.

I Hope those Pokémon balls had something inside otherwise they’re just a big blob of rice

Ooh, I love Portmeirion. I wish you could buy a house there. (Not that I could afford a house there.)

JazzyGeoff · 14/02/2023 20:45

That's two dishes now that Georgia has made that look muted, beige and blah

EsmaCannonball · 14/02/2023 20:50

Have these people never watched the show before? Two bowls does not cut it.

Sunbird24 · 14/02/2023 20:51

Bye Simmie…

Theeyeballsinthesky · 14/02/2023 20:51

Can only assume no other chefs in wales wanted to do it this year - standard is so poor

EsmaCannonball · 14/02/2023 20:54

I'm also remembering Alex from Northern Ireland who made the pudding that looked like a book. That's the kind of thing I want to see.

littlbrowndog · 14/02/2023 21:11

Late to this. Gawd they were all pretty poor.

not one dish I went. Oooh I would love this

hope they get better

I remember that. Twas awesome.

YouknoweverythingJonSnow · 14/02/2023 21:42

That was awful. That 'lasagne' might be the saddest dish I've seen on here!

I'm hoping the surprise is a change of judge as she was far too dour for me, Andi is gonna earn her wages this week keeping us entertained with this lot!

EsmaCannonball · 15/02/2023 15:58

I think Spencer is taking over the judging tonight. He was an excellent contestant.

A couple of years ago there was a female Thai chef from the South-East who was really impressive and high-scoring, but she didn't get through to finals' week despite scoring higher than most that did. I'd like her to have another go.

Sunbird24 · 15/02/2023 20:01

Evening!

jay55 · 15/02/2023 20:02

Evening. Ready for some more creativity tonight or they can all go home
