Poncey nonsense

Ooh thank you

What is?

Hard to know, isn't it?
If it's tarting food up rather than walloping meat and 2 veg on to a plate, well all of GBM (plus Masterchef and similar) is "poncy nonsense".
It's supposed to be - that's why I love it.

Quite. I mean that's what I'm here for. Fuck meat and 2 veg. I want poncy nonsense. I seriously couldn't understand that poster. If it's not your thing then DONT WATCH IT

@PotterHead1985

If it's not your thing then DONT WATCH IT

Indeed.
Mind you, I do love a proper hate watch. Come Dine with Me is a favourite for that. DH can't understand the pleasure I get from muttering "No! You can't just add a bit of milk - that chocolate has seized" and "Hah! You were asking if somebody made their own filo and you can't knock up a bit of shortcrust!".
I really don't mean to deviate too far from GBM, but do you remember cauliflower-water-and-tulip-bulb man (who also kept boasting about being very well off) losing to the unassuming "car salesman" who turned out to be really rich and a good cook?
That was a good day ☺️

I think vegetarian bloke is lovely. His first comment after serving his starter was “Who’s up next? What help do you need?”

His 8 seat ‘restaurant’ (I’m betting his mum’s basement!) is booked up until July and only releases reservations on the first of the month. It sounds lush; I’d totally love to eat there.

Of course it's poncy nonsense. I'm HERE for the poncy nonsense!

They’re cooking for a banquet, I think it’s a prerequisite, but at least it’s poncey nonsense without Gregggg Wallace…

Yes. We mentioned him last night.

And I'm with you on Come Dine with Me. I watch it purely for the disasters so I can be like wtf are you doing!!

Yea that was well nice of him. Barely in the door and offering help

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Evening all. Mains and pud tonight

I already know what I’m calling the next thread… 🤭

Oooh I wanna know (altho knowing you, I can guess!!!)

Evening all

🙌🙌 here for poncey stuff

I like Eddie, too. He's officially the least annoying man with a ponytail who's ever existed. Perhaps the only non-annoying one to ever walk the planet.

Hispi. Drink.

Hispi!! Drink

Oxo cube & orange? Sceptical…

I hope when the guests finally arrive at Blenheim Palace for the banquet there's a sign in the car park saying, 'Poncey Stuff This Way.'

Ahem. Poncey nonsense if you don’t mind.
