Very fussy presentation, but I do like Oli's attention to the brief - something which hasn't seemed quite as strong overall this week...

Can you imagine a roomful of people mucking about with it?😱

Olly seems to have become a bit arrogant

Some chefs can get very prissy about "you're meant to eat it this way".

I remember Gordon Ramsay taking the Mick out of it on one of his "Kitchen Nightmares".

Looks like he’s won

I agree with Zoe there: the phrase "langoustine salad" did spring to mind.

Oh ….she’s on the kitchen cabinet ….I listen to that too

Yeah: I think you'd get a lot of "It's my big night out: why should I have to work?" comments...

Also: this banquet's outside, so imagine going through all that while the weather plays up!

I have a tube of pringles here Philem if you want some

@Kaytee posted:

No, I think they were probably the worst of the lot

Overall, they seemed a lot less experienced than other heats...

Oh dear: thumbs-down for Stuart.

Oh dear …looks like Stuart will be last

@Baz posted:

Me too.

I think she'd be very entertaining as a dinner guest.

I always think that being last is a disadvantage ….their taste buds must be shot by then !
