Apologies if there is already a thread, I did search and couldn't find one.

Also Apologies I don't know how to tag folk so hopefully ye all find me!!

Hello!
Hoping for some good dishes from the Welsh lot this week

If we don't get The Pie Who Came In From the Cold I am going to be mightily disappointed.

I remember really not liking Corrin last year. IIRC, he was really arsey and rude and, I seem to remember, he seemed particularly belittling of the female chefs.

Andi's outfit is very 'Joan Crawford's pyjamas.'

That’s her second set of PJs this series so far

I expected Under Milk Wood to make an appearance, but not sure how teriyaki bbq mushrooms fits that

Link to Wales is a bit tenuous but at least Lawrence of Arabia is a properly iconic British film.

Under Milk Wood is properly Welsh.

Silence of the Lambs, not a British film but the idea is fun.

There’s altogether too much mushroom in the starters for me this week

I remember John's man-bun more than I remember his cooking.

Same!

Looks like just me & thee tonight Esma

Some very slender links to Wales. I am not loving the sound of any of these.

Oh he’s finally added a ‘milk’ element

I was hoping someone would have referenced How Green Was My Valley (my mother used to make us watch all the oldies) but I suppose it's just way too antique. Also gloomy and doesn't really suggest gourmet food

I feel we've seen this kind of 'wood and foliage' presentation a lot on GBM.

The little rugs are cute

It's the only really Welsh-y film I can think of ..... which means there's literally no chance of them doing it.

True!

I think this presentation isn't bad but doesn't live up to the cinematic-ness of the film. It needs the theme tune, the heat haze, a waiter on a camel or something.

I’ve thought of Twin Town

Evening! Just got in. Have I missed much?

Why is Andi wearing a name tag??

What has that got to do with Silence of the Lambs!

It's a prop. She's meant to be someone visiting the prison in Silence of the Lambs.

It’s a prop - prison visitor pass

It was ‘not liver’ , with fava borlotti beans

Although I am slightly irked by the weak link, I thought the Silence of the Lambs one was quite clever.
