Andi la Rue!

Team Sally, although I also like Yeoman Harry.

Evening from what Tom says think that the wildcard is from the chefs that go through to the judges. Hope that’s wrong so that a cost that got a 10 from the mentor could be looked at.

Denise 🥳

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 06/03/2025 20:11

If all goes well, I think Sally will go through. If it doesn't, and Harry wins, I think she's got a good chance for her starter as a wild card. Not many people have done well there...

Ooo, is Denise going to eat like a sparrow, or clean every plate??

jay55 · 06/03/2025 20:11

Denise was sat behind me at the olympics.
I hope she has a hearty appetite.

EsmaCannonball · 06/03/2025 20:12

I'm always amazed at how non-picky the guest judges are on this. If it were me I'd be all 'Ugh, blue cheese!' or 'Ugh, duck tartare!'

Cripes a canapé fall

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 06/03/2025 20:13

Oh no! That's the first time a server has dropped something, isn't it?

PotterHead1985 · 06/03/2025 20:13

Ooh I'd be pissed right there If I was sally

I'm a bit ahead of TV timings so waited a while to say I've seen Beardy Man's main in Alien vs Predator before it was slaughtered.

And Andi looks fab in that shade of green.

I've just remembered I'm watching yesterday's episode because I was out yesterday. I'm not hallucinating

We don’t notice 🤣

Sunbird24 · 06/03/2025 20:14

@ChonkyRabbit i did wonder if you were colourblind perhaps! 😂

Lol, I was wondering if you were colour-blind! (Andi is in scarlet tonight.)

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 06/03/2025 20:14

X-post. Sorry!

EsmaCannonball · 06/03/2025 20:15

Ooh, is that the first ever waitress spillage incident? Surprised it doesn't happen more often given how much the poor buggers have to carry in pig's bladders made to look like Windsor Castle or Jodrell Bank made from macarons, etc.

littlbrowndog · 06/03/2025 20:16

Andi is looking well fine

EsmaCannonball · 06/03/2025 20:17

The waitress really suits that outfit. Very cute. Quick, somebody cast her in a Charles Dickens adaptation.

They must check this with them first, or it wouldn’t make very good TV.

littlbrowndog · 06/03/2025 20:18

She’s got the hair tbf

They dropped the ball with Anita Dobson the other year mind!

The judges are so happy, a real change.

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 06/03/2025 20:18

Wasn't there a guest who barely ate any of it? I think an actress.

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 06/03/2025 20:19

Sunbird, I am following in your footsteps all the way, tonight! It was Anita I was thinking about

It was Anita she ate like a wee sparrow
