Sleb MasterChef 2024 #2 - who are all these people?

[GrouchyKiwi]

Lamb being cooked properly. Fondant potatoes that aren't hard as a rock. What a strange year.

Thread one Sleb MasterChef 2024: raw lamb and burnt caramel, no doubt | Mumsnet

Gregg is so cringe.

I too am concerned that Jamie is going home.

I really like Jamie but I think he might be off.

They’ve all got this little pause when they say deep fried…chocolate bar - guessing it’s instinctive to say the brand name 😂

Deep-fried chocolate bars don't like you either, Gregg.

Yes, Tamer (whom I really don't like) seems to be one of those contestants who is coasting on better cooks having a bad round.

Nigella did deep-fried Bounty bars.

I'm not sure that Bounty bars really work for deep-frying (you need something that will go gooey) but I'm willing to try it for science.

Booo!

Women Greg, not ladies.

Oh that's a shame I would rather it was Tamar.

shame nice man

Come on, you just know he tripped up and said 'birds' and 'bints' for the first 32 takes.

Ok, I recognised Vito…

Sorry to seeJamie go! See you next week!

Vito, the actress lady whose name escapes me (was in a Jane Austen adaptation, along with many other things), and maybe the other tall chap (is it Greg James?)

See you next week!

Oh good, next weeks lot look delightfully incompetent! Will try to remember to watch real time and comment, I love reading the comments, especially the Greg snark.

Have a lovely weekend all, can’t believe it is nearly September.

Please let Vito be

a) not a knob
b) a half-decent cook
c) unimpressed by Gregg

I recognise Dom from Glow Up.

I know, but I don’t allow him any leeway. He would have said girls as well, sigh.

Oh dear god, do you think he'll turn up next week 😯 I really hope not

I've just finished watching, can't take to Tamer at all, like Jake but disappointed Jamie went.

Don't recognise anyone for next week.

Have a great weekend everyone 😀

I have just caught up. Loved the little bromance that developed between Jake and Jamie. Jake has obviously been brought up on reality TV but he does always seem a nice chap. He lost his father and brother when he was very young and I am sure that has shaped him in many ways.

I loved the contortions to avoid saying Mars Bar.

Only just caught up. Sorry to see Jamie go, he tried really hard and had a good attitude.
Anyone who eats octopus can fuck off to the far side of fuck as far as I’m concerned.
Su Pollard can join them there.

As for next week I recognised the woman from the Traitors who was the mum of one of the other contestants but both of their names escape me.

Schedule for this week. Bit of a weird time. Assume there's some sportsing or something.

And I was completely wrong about the lady who looked like the British Institution Actress! I only know Vito, but have heard of Mutya (Sugababes?)

I have already watched all on iPlayer but will not spoil anything except to say I loved Vito

As in loved Vito appearing on Masterchef - just the same child like enthusiasm he showed on SCD
