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.

The last 2 nights I have wished I could reach into the tv and slap her! She is so annoying with the face pulling. I actually find her more annoying than Greg!

Also what is with the silly little girl headband thing?

We have only watched ep 1 so far. Anna's wide eyed gurning is getting to me already! Need to internalise it as I'm getting to DH already 😂
Some excited decent cooks in ep 1 (never remember names). Will catch up on series and thread soon.
This and finals week of GBM is too much!

Did Sophie describe herself as plant based rather than veggie? I’m sure I remember her saying that she cooked and ate veggie for herself but was ok with cooking and tasting meat dishes for others.

I’ve always assumed the previous contestants' comments are scripted for them - they never sound natural.

I’ve only dipped in and out in recent years as I loathe Greggggg and my loathing escalated after the unsurprising stories came out. I really like the new combo so far - not perfect but I can see it working well. Anna is very keen on butter isn’t she?

There were some very weird dishes this week (although kudos to anyone trying to create Cthulu for MC). Two contestants trying to thicken food with uncooked flour made me wonder about basic skills testing before the contest, but I guess anyone can have a brainfart on the day.

Jhane and Sabina can come and live in my kitchen cupboard.
