No ash crackers, please, it’s the MASTERCHEF PROFESSIONALS FINAL!

[Halsall]

New thread for the final.

Thank you. Excited for tonight! (I need to get out more)

And I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with the title. No more poxy ash crackers

Thank you! I've got an evening hospital appointment. I do hope I'm back in time.

Thanks for the new thread!

For once, I don't have a clear favourite tonight: I wouldn't mind any one of them winning, really.

I'm gutted that I won't be able to watch tonight with you all so I'll stay away from this thread until I know the result.

I'm Team Luke - he's been my favourite since early on but to be honest I'd be happy for any of them to win now - it's been a really good bunch of contestants.

As always it's a pleasure watching along with the Chuffians - see you all for the next series whichever one that is next!? 😀

Sad Caroline won't be there, but thanks for the prompt to watch

It's football on here, and cant find it tomorrow either. Are you sure its tonight?

Fingers crossed I can watch on iplayer!

Im here! However im going for a colonoscopy tomorrow so im on clear fluids (and green and yellow clear sweeties) and I have to take the rocket fuel at 7 so A, im fucking starving and B i may be err otherwise occupied. But team Luke.

Team Gareth.

Mines moved to beeb2 because of football, perhaps yours has too

Where are you, @VividDeer? it’s still 8pm on BBC1 here…

ETA Definitely tonight, Thursday.

8pm bbc2 in ire and n.ire cos of the Ireland v Czechia world Cup qualifiers.

Dinner of champions here: a tescos bake at home demi baguette with butter, ketchup, mustard and Cumberland sausages!!

That sounds good, @PotterHead1985 😋

Tonight, I have eaten two packets of pickled onion monster munch and a load of After Eights while waiting for MasterChef to start. Make of that what you will!

Football on BBC 2

Person of taste and discrimination - like myself (simpers modestly)

Here we go……
Steady on for 10 minutes each of filmed biog!

Ooh. Haven't had an after 8 in forever.

I've been hearing all the 2nd job work drama!!

Let the half hour of waffle commence.

Hello and thanks @Halsall!
