M&S Dress the Nation

[Fandangoes]

I missed this on Tues night so just catching up. Anybody else watched it? I’m sure Sewing Bee fans would enjoy it.

I've just watched it. Thought it was good! Too many presenters though. I'm also a Sewing Bee fan, but liked how this was more about design.

I felt very sorry for Sandeep, and wondered if the woman on her team who changed the colour of her trousers and didn't tell her, did it deliberately...

I watched this too. I enjoyed it but have no idea why they need so many presenters. As always with these things there are those who don’t listen to the brief. Why spend all that effort getting on to the programme and then throw it away on the first challenge.

I enjoyed it. I agree too many presenters and they all sound the same!!

I hated it! Usually love this type of programme (pottery throw down, sewing bee etc) but this I couldn't stand! Why did it need 2 presenters, 2 people from M&S and a spice girl? Of course it also had the box ticking exercise in contestants..... I was very disappointed and won't watch again.

It’s going to be ridiculous when they are down to the last 5 contestants and there are so many presenters/judges.

I thought some of the contestants were awful. I wasn't keen on the presenters either. I'll give it a miss.

Sandeep was definitely sabotaged.

The best garment was the dress Mel B was wearing.

That red and yellow monstrosity looked more like a football strip than nightwear.

I agree too many presenters and what the heck was scary spice doing there?

What was that bollocks about the woman who is cooking dinner for her husband (think he said that, not "partner") but ready for sex??

its. Ot getting any bettter is it.

I know!!! I was like wtf?!!! And you could see his sewing partners face, she did not look impressed either but went along with it!

And then she got the boot

I enjoyed the bloke who was like "this is my chance to leave working in an office behind!"

Who's going to tell him that in house designers for high street very much still work in an office....

I’m finding this so infuriating. How can the contestants be so rubbish? Surely David is going to win as he is the only one bringing anything new to the table. You can also tell who no one wants to work with as he is so annoying

thank goodness that dreadful woman went this week. I agree the only one any good is David

Is anyone watching the semi final tonight? That grey jacket that won first place in the first half was so awful - those breast pockets were like something a child had done.

I hope Sandeep wins overall - I think she'd be by far the best fit for M&S - though I think the guy who designed the grey jacket will win.

I think David is the best overall but Sandeep is the best fit for M&S.

Rolling my eyes at the chap this week who obviously thinks he's too good for M&S.

Tonight’s episode was the only one I have really enjoyed. I am always amazed by people who throw away their chance by their arrogance. It must to take so much to get on these programmes. Then they just don’t listen to what they should do.

David came across best in the interviews.

Katie clearly only goes in M&S for the loos...

Anyone stuck with it . Final tonight

David won. Feels like the right winner.

I agree. I can’t believe how unprepared the women were for the interview

Ooh, thanks for the recommendation. It's no GBSB, but it'll fill the gap, until Design Challenge.
Yes, there are too many presenters, and I don't like how they do 3rd, 2nd & 1st - because you know who has 'won' when they announce 2nd!
They're obviously trying not to follow the GBSB formula - but, because that is perfect, this can only be inferior.
I like Scary Spice, but Vernon Kay doesn't stand a chance, when, inevitably, he's compared to Patrick, does he?

I am really surprised that not more MNetters seem to be watching it.
