“There was no need to put the noodles on” But you asked for them dear. God she is SO annoying. Imagine working with her.

I’ve never found falafel that appetising.

"I'm doing it like this...but they can do it however they want, really" - and no doubt she will then comment on everything they do that isn't identical to how she did it...

My god she is annoying. Part of me wants philli back!

Like a disappointing pakhora.

I quite like them but they always veer towards the dry.

They need a lot of saucey stuff to get them down.

Another mum who should have been the one on the show.

“ using the key ingredients” I have given them a crystal ball, isn’t that enough of a handhold. Is it my fault they haven’t found the crystal ball in the cupboard. Head toss, smirk.

I use a similar recipe to make flatbread with a similar recipe ( Janie Oliver) mine look better.

Good for you Mon giving Charlie a poke in the right direction.

@Halsall to me they’re just not worth the effort. Love hummus though, and chick peas in general.

Halsall · 25/02/2026 21:28

Matt: 'Where are you working at the moment?'

Contestant: 'Er, here?'

Unfortunately Potter very hard to find in SE England so have to have loads when in Glasgow.

Ok, now we're all watching this and imagining him flying our plane when the other pilot has had a heart attack and one of the engines is on fire.

Ohwhatfuckeryitistoride · 25/02/2026 21:30

This is rubbish and means nothing.

Halsall · 25/02/2026 21:31

Charlie looks murderous

It really doesn’t need 4 people to critique the dishes does it?

ilovesooty · 25/02/2026 21:32

Well Charlie, it's not as if it counts.

Agree - 4 elements for a skills test isn’t great

Hang on a minute? didn’t Tom or his identical twin cook last night? close up of his hands needed for ID purposes.
