MasterChef with Grace D and Anna H

[Halsall]

Despite the fact that it seems like 5 minutes since the Professionals ended, the new (ordinary) MC starts on Tuesday at 9. Couldn’t see a thread but happy to merge if there’s another already.

Who's in?

There will be more I've missed.

Thought all of them were irritating as fuck and I haven't changed my mind.

See you on Thursday everyone.

I don’t know what they’re trying to do to us but it’s tomorrow at 9 AND Thursday at 9 🙄

I think they are luring us into a false sense of security. They accidentally allowed a contestant wearing shorts on in the first episode, but quickly realised the mistake and sorted it. They will gradually filter in some oddbods, just to keep us on our toes.

It’s Jody marsh she looks like - the super skinny model

It’s 10 for me 🥱

You not around tomorrow?

Me too

In 2 weeks it will be 11 for me! Im gonna die

Hoping to see you tomorrow Chuffs but my bed may call.

Aaand there's a massive fire (looks like it could be a car) up the hill. All go here tonight.

Maybe somebody has been inspired by MC to fire up the BBQ to flambé some bananas?

Keep safe Potter. A positive review in The Guardian. They did pick up the staring and how quickly contestants leave.

No, my football team are on TV. My friend is picking me up to watch with her and her husband so I can get out of the house. I had a hip replacement 3 weeks ago and can't drive yet.

After reading this, I really want French and Saunders to do one of their ‘tribute’ sketches.

Dawn to be Grace.

Enjoy and heal soon

It was just too late for me last night so I'm going to try to catch up during today. Looking forward to reading the thread as it's moved on apace.
I'm hoping I take more to Anna than I did when she was last on.
Iirc, she had a tendency to popping eyes in the reaction shots that made her look a bit like Tricki Woo the pekinese having his anal glands squeezed by James Herriot.

@LaMarschallin you win he thread with that comparison! Though sadly I fear you’re doomed to disappointment because she’s still doing it 😂

@ilovesooty hope you’re OK, good luck with the recuperation but I’m sure it’ll be worth it.

I quite enjoyed that first episode, although Grace’s lowered eyelid nodding and Anna’s big eye head forward mannerisms gave me flashbacks to Egg and John Terrapin.

Also Rosdip is my new favourite name.

This is what I thought! My OH huffed and puffed about TWO female presenters. I leaned in with, "and what was it before, eh? Eh? Eh? EH???" And he did admit that it had indeed been TWO male presenters but but but. I suggested that it might be nice to know for 100% that neither of these presenters would have walked onto set with their penises swinging freely before the cameras rolled and that it's nice not to have Gregg leering at the older women thinking that he is blessing them with his virile attention.

What’s the staring? I missed that

Jodie Kidd you mean. Jodie Marsh was also model, but they look nothing alike.

Just catching up with last night's episode and Anna is annoying me so much. What the hell is going on with the big staring eyes and silly expression? I really like Grace but hope Anna stops with the face pulling

That’s it thank you!

Yes she’s not really a poker face is she

did you feel it was a lot crammed in?

Thank you though - Jodie Kidd is who she looks like!
