the food looked ok but bet they score her low cos she's a pain in the neck

TrillianAstra · 15/03/2009 20:42

How sad would you be if you watched this and discovered that your personality needed a lid put on it?

permatired · 15/03/2009 20:43

What's it with all this cheesecake too? - they must have been reading the MN 80s food thread

I would think it is a bit rude to start picking your teeth at the table

lol Trillian. It did shut her up a bit

I love toothpicks but would play with them all the way throughout the meal. I never buy them unless I want sticks for sausages

lilolilmanchester · 15/03/2009 20:43

why would you go on a programme like this if you don't like most foods you might be served?????

permatired · 15/03/2009 20:43

Yes, that's it!!!

ellingwoman · 15/03/2009 20:45

I can't eat if someone's using a toothpick. It's so gross

TrillianAstra · 15/03/2009 20:45

And why would you wear a cocktail dress without auggesting that everyone else dress up too?

foxinsocks · 15/03/2009 20:45

that's the thickest smoked salmon I've ever seen

FiveGoMadInDorset · 15/03/2009 20:46

I haven't seen anyone down a pint that quick since college days (well no one of the female persuasion)

I'm sure they just want to be on telly - pretty sure that what why Danielle went on - they probbaly didn't get on X Factor or Bg Brother

Smoked salmon tastes like cat food?

TrillianAstra · 15/03/2009 20:47

Bad move to do steak and ask how people like it cooked - your interpretation of 'medium rare' is never the same as theirs.

lilolilmanchester · 15/03/2009 20:47

this is why I'm glad I mainly work with men (no offence ladies)

They're all particularly dreadful this week, aren't they?

I did laugh at the start when they were all hoping for men to arrive.

(Thank you, Five - am replying now!)

permatired · 15/03/2009 20:53

It's so rude to leave everyone sitting at the table while you faff around in the kitchen for hours

foxinsocks · 15/03/2009 20:54

this is too funny, they are so insincere

TrillianAstra · 15/03/2009 20:54

What on EARTH was she doing for that long?

Eleanor's face!! When Liz said I'd like to meet up with you all again! Classic lemon

FiveGoMadInDorset · 15/03/2009 20:55

Of course they are all going to keep in touch afterwards
