Just saw a trail for Sleb Masterchef - it's back on the 18th August, at 9pm, with Giorgio Locatelli joining Grace Dent. Chuffians assemble!

Looks like a pork pie til you open it. I’d be v upset if I thought I was getting a Melton Mowbray and found it full of mushrooms

Can you imagine. Id sue

I think he was manoeuvring into position for Emily’s pie and cold custard.

Knew he had fucked it with that monstrosity of a pie

Fransgran · 19/08/2026 21:58

Fair decision. Off to bed. The only way I've managed to stay awake was by typing stuff. I'd be be embarrassed to read this back. I'll shut up on Friday, promise!

Never read back

This has been fun, see you all on Friday.

Don't you dare. You have helped keep me awake. 8pm Friday chuffs

littlbrowndog · 19/08/2026 21:59

Gawd am knackered. Don’t even know why

Halsall · 19/08/2026 22:01

Not surprised Jay went. See you all on Friday, chaps. At least it’s at 8!

Sounds like we’re all exhausted this week! I nodded off after they said goodbye to Jay and woke up in the credits. Don’t expect I missed much

LaMarschallin · 19/08/2026 22:07

Hate this 9pm thing. Gone to bed and watched on my phone again. Tomorrow and Friday night DH is watching rugby (yes, we're a poor 1 television household) so phone again.
Miss the contemporaneous chatting here but still good to catch up with what's been said.
Glad Jason stayed, but probably not for much longer.
I've not watched a celeb one all through - was expecting new contestants next time
Was unimpressed Jay couldn't get the base off his cheesecake, but I remember a professional MC opening challenge to make fruit tarts.
Both chefs turned the little flan dishes upside down to turn them out, rather than sitting then on a tin of tomatoes (or whatever) to slide the ring down.
Could hardly believe it 🤦🏻‍♀️
Loving the Grace and Giorgio show 😊

Upwiththisiwillnotput · 19/08/2026 22:14

I’m sorry but shortcrust pastry is SO easy, literally 3/4 ingredients. The only time I’ve failed was during the heatwave when the butter melted too quickly. I’m sorry Jay but it was the right decision..

PotterHead1985 · 19/08/2026 21:41

Shtap it!!!! Remember how the chuffs jinx works people!!

Eh..

littlbrowndog · 19/08/2026 21:51

The chips looked floppy

Nowt worse 🤭

Romeiswheretheheartis · 19/08/2026 22:44

I thought Jason deserved to go more than Jay, for dishing up a pancake with some bits of fruit - and for being far too cocky about it. I hope he's next out.

BIWI · 19/08/2026 22:47

PotterHead1985 · 19/08/2026 19:39

Biwi??

I pointed her to this thread!

BIWI · 19/08/2026 22:51

I was sorry to see Jay go, although understood why. Really wanted to Jason to go as he's so fucking irritating. And not really a good cook.

I like Shakira, but I think she really knows more/has more experience than she's letting on.

placemats · 19/08/2026 23:45

Jason, Jay and Joe - what are the odds?

I liked Jay. Sorry to see him go.

Piggywaspushed · 20/08/2026 07:07

Just caught up.

The episode reminds me of the time we went to a local pub. I mean , pubs and pies : natural partners, right?

DH ordered the pie and broke his fork trying to cut into it... yum.

Shakira's pie was weird and didn't look very moist at all. The fact Giorgio could turn an untopped pie upside down to turn it out speaks volumes.

Does anyone know how the food doesn't go cold for the tasting? I was thinking about Jason's pancakes. Maybe they were meant to be cold.
