A Total Eclipse of The Tart - The Final Count Down Bake Off 25

[GetSetFake]

Just realised we need a new thread......

No. You get to watch the episode that is yet to air. Great fun, eating, drinking and clapping 👏 with a load of fans who all want a different winner!

All lovely supportive families.

I’m very envious - it sounds much more fun than many shows. How long does the recording take compared to the edit?

What is this, Christmas Advert-gheddon?

Was that the short version of the J Lewis advert - cod' I didn't get it.

Well the John Lewis advert dropped today. And if they don’t show that at the GBBO final when will they?

it dos feel early though, it’s more I’m a celeb time I thought

Was that a glimpse of Toms danish granny?

Roughly 3 hours recording. Lots of banter and swearing 🤬 to cut out! Very few retakes at the end. It’s a long day, arrive around 2 ish and finish around 9 ish.

Nah to the JL ad.

Oh I love Alison's dress.

Ive got Aaron in my work sweepstake! But happy if jasmine wins too.

Tom to win

On the rare occasions I watch TV in real time I use the mute button for the adverts...

blimey that is a long day. Hope there was lots of cake to sustain you

Yes, although the long version doesn't have much more to it.

Am I the only one not moved by the JL advert ?!

Why is Paul ignoring the unspoken rule that they give positive feedback to all in the final?

That’s pretty good for an “audience participation” type show rather than 100% scripted.

Especially if drinks are included :-)

Jasmine winner this round

Jasmine ahead already. Very boring.

Are they going for the one does badly in each round so it’s hard to predict?

What does a madeleine tower look like?

I've done Madeleine's a couple of times this season, humps are really difficult with these time minutes.

I’m not moved either and I haven’t been impressed with any of the adverts this year. I like Aldis one a tiny bit more with Kevin and I think Amazon have just repeated last years advert

I have never baked or tasted a madeleine yet …..

That's not really a thing, is it? And Tom got a bit of praise for his flavours.
