Didn't work in America did it...
I'm very glad it's back, I must remember to series link it
Thanks for the contestant profiles El I hear they had more applicants than ever this year

Thanks for the contestant profiles El I hear they had more applicants than ever this yearcan I snigger at it failing cos he thought he was the be all and end all and now he's skulking back here 
I would watch it, but, unfortunately, I don't like either presenter, although I do like Mel Giedroyc.

disgraceful way he treated her but she can hold her head up high as she's kept a dignified silence 
doubt his 'fling' was worth it in the end

Mel and Sue do make it funny
Mel & Sue are great 
Shame about Paul, he was rather attractive before the fling. I did wonder if his marriage was over before that, but who really knows, it's not my business. I'll still enjoy the show

Well- I thoroughly enjoyed that! There appears to be some impressive bakers there this year!
Mr he squirrel cake was brilliant
I'm going to catch up with it today
It has to have been nerves, surely!
Is this on just once a week?
Yes EC they kick someone off each week until they're left with a few finalists for the last show. I missed the first 2 years and started watching it last year
they kick someone off each week until they're left with a few finalists for the last show. I missed the first 2 years and started watching it last yearJust watched it and enjoyed it there's always one that seems to play the little girl lost and this year it's going to be Ruby, very good ideas but probably to much for the first week, I love how they all end up on the floor looking in the oven 
Ruby annoyed me! I tried to be a bit sympathetic towards her because it must be nerve wracking being on TV, but she came back the next day just the same! Where's her "put it behind you and move on" fighting spirit!
She's lucky that lad made a big mess up of things really because I think she would have gone if it weren't for that

Ruby reminds me of the woman last year with a brown bob, always doing the little girl voice and simpering to Paul, the older fella was very good
Look what I found and just could not resist buying today! 
I missed it 
the series link hadn't linked!
Anyone know when the repeat is..?

Thanks El I've heard it was a good episode

I'm rather enjoying this programme, too.
Ali is my favourite so far.

It's on the iPlayer though, so us Scots can still get to see it if we need to.
^good idea!!
I've just caught up on the iplayer!
What a great week 
I wanted Kimberely to be star baker but I do think Ruby deserved it, and what a huge turn around from last week!

Question Re breadsticks - surely if you cut the dough to 10 inches the baked product WON'T be 10 inches?
Is the programme on BBC Two right now a repeat?
Don't know, BBC2 Scotland is showing River City - a Scottish Soap.

If it's called 'Bread' or 'Cake', then it's a repeat.

They are baking bread in this episode. It's 2/16.
Edit: Just spotted your post and it's a repeat. I've not seen it so new to me

I was impressed baz! It was like seeing a different girl
Who's the one with the dark hair & thick fringe, who looks like mel & sue's sister... I like her

Deborah
Becca thank you EC, that's the one.
Not keen on Deborah so far but we're only just getting to know them
thank you EC, that's the one.

Lol
Just me this Tuesday then.
evening bake off-ers I've only seen the trifle section (the phone rang) but I hope you all enjoyed it and I'll pop back as soon as I've seen it.
Poor Howard with the custard
Crikey! What a dramatic episode
I actually had my hands over mouth when they were serving up the custard tarts.
I can't believe just how many of them had such a bad weekend!
The girl who was star baker (I forget her name)- well about time! she's been fantastic all the way so far so I was delighted to see her finally get it
Ruby's moody face almost made a come back but luckily she turned that around and was back to making me cheer her on. She just a great job for someone so young & inexperienced, next to some people who've been baking for years.
Becca contributes to impress me.
I'm sad to see Ali leave, he was a great character, I had hoped he would go through
Love the history lessons!

Just caught up, I think Ali should have stayed and the bloke (teacher I think) should have gone
That would have been my choice too Aimee
He was getting on my wick showing off too much
That Mary Berry one has been on with Chris this morning.
^i missed it! I pulled up at work before she was on, was it good?
Have caught up on the last two episodes, so am up to speed for tonight. 
I have never seen the programme before this series, but it caught my attention when I found out a man from Sheffield (Howard) is competing. So I thought I would see how well he did.
I'll be around for tonights.
Evening all 
Hi Kaytee.
Don't like Bakewell Tart - doesn't matter how well it's made.

I love the stuff and it's made not too far from me
I don't ever see the point of using gold on food.
Evening Fluffs and EC

Ooh, Kimberley and Ruby not doing too well on this one!

I was a bit at that!
And no, I've never made a tuille.
These constructions are MADNESS !!!!
Did I miss it, or did we not really get a good look at Ruby's 'dropped cone'?

We saw it. It seemed to meet the brief.
Christine star baker again. That Bavarian clock tower did really look marvellous!
Originally Posted by Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing:

Yes, much, much better than the Dalek
I'm all caught up too sorry I wasn't around live last night!
I've so far not been a fan of Christine but I thought she was great last night and my first choice for star baker the alpine clock was especially fantastic!
Loved the Tottenham tray bake history lesson
I was quite surprised by the bakers falling into the zone of leaving this week, it really does prove that anyone can have an off day!
I thought Ruby's cone was good, and much more of a show stopper than some of the other efforts, however, I can't help but wonder if they've been lenient with her because of her exams. I also suspect that Mr Hollywood has a bit of a soft spot for her
Becca's biscuit tower was good too, I loved the design. She's one of my favourite contestants

You can rewatch the hysterical custard tart fiasco
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01gft3g
is it just me or are this lot not as good as last yrs? I know when I watched the last season I was so tempted by everything they did that it sent me on a mad baking spree for months. . this lot just make me go hmmm ..
I've even tried watching it when I am hungry and nope, nothing, nowt, nada not interested in their offerings..... as for trifle week. . bleurgh they all looked horrible.. totally not tempting in any way.. and Ruby needs to go do her exams first then try again another yr and stop with the sulky sour puss of hers when things don't go her way..
that's it for now
I've been reading the thread on DS they are up to 112 pages and if you diss Ruby you are a jealous bulleh, they even argue in a baking thread I also think they have been lenient with her and I think Paul likes her
I look forward to see what mishaps happen to poor Howard this week
Doesn't sound very sporting Aimee lol, can't they just enjoy the show
There seems to be a few if us that think the same about Ruby but others seem to think we didn't like her cause she's pretty but like I think it was Olly said don't do your exams and the bake off if you can't handle the pressure
They argue over anything
Do you like Howard Baz?
Ooooh someone bake my a tea loaf!
*me!
I'm so excited I can't type
I'm so excited I can't type
Paul was impressed with Ruby's fruit adding timing
Kimberley and Becca are my favourites
I like Kimberley (and I like Becca, but don't think she's the best) I actually think Christine is the best allrounder,
I don't like the way some of them slam the ovens closed. I'm sure it can't do the contents much good - even when the stuff hasn't even STARTED to bake!
I always think that too, Fluffs!

except on tea breads apparently....
I hadn't noticed the oven slamming- I bet I see it all the time now lol
Paul is def sweet on ruby!
Paul is def sweet on ruby!
Mmmmmm those sweet buns look amazing, I hope they bake well
oh no! Poor glen 
the peachy buns look great
I think howard will be going tonight
are buns meant to be crunchy?
I'm not happy
Me neither
Those peachy buns were so beautiful too!
I like glen but I think he should have gone.
Also, I'm sick of Ruby's pouty face! Yes, she can bake, but I don't like the immature stroppy pouty "poor little me" faces

I'm not 
Every time her pity me face hits my screen I want to hit her with a rolling pin...I'll be devastated if the whinny faced brat wins 
I'm still upset about Howard
Oh gawd, I hope she's not the winner! At the mo I'm rooting for Kimberly, but I also like Becca, Francis and Christine.
I think glen may go next week, but I'm willing him to do well, he's the only man left

I agree Sweet..apart from the Glen bit
I don't like is the camera on me Glen 
if ruby wins I'll 
please please please somebody slap that sulky Ruby .. she's like a spoilt little brat if she doesn't get her way..
Non of them are appealing to me this year, nor their bakes either. .I'm kinda thinking Ruby's mood swings are what is putting me off them all.. it's like I'm watching on tenterhooks all the time and thinking ffs make sure hers are alright or we'll have another paddy or tantrum going and all the others will fade into the background while she has her tantrum tears... .
right one went last night tho. .Howard should have gone last week ..massive fail
But she's beautiful Olly and she's had exams
ah right I get ya..
beautiful? :scratcheshead: she's a normal every day type of girl with a pouty sulky frowny face to boot
mind you as I said last week. what dickhead enters a competition like that when they have major exams?
I feel sorry for her tutors if she does badly in her exams. .tantrums galore methinks
I don't think she's that pretty, she's no minger but she's not a stunner!
N0-0ne interested in this thread anymore either, it would seem!
Oh....it's going too well!
I like the sound of these 'nuns'.
In fact I may much on a bar of chocolate whilst they toil
I think as a kid we used to call them 'Elephants Feet'.
I think it's only right that we should join in from time to time!
evening bakers! 
I'm on a 15 min delay, but I'm tuning in
LOVED the suet puddings, a good friend of mine makes a fantastic klutey dumpling, her grandparents are from Orkney

My nana used to love them
Mmmmm the chocolate choux snowmen looked delicious!
All woman final.
Aw I knew it would be glen! He was funny but that show stopper was more stop than show.
Ruby talks like a drip, she's getting on my wick! Credit to her for the good work though.
Winging it? My butt! That's an act IMO
Loved Becca & Francis this week, I'm very glad Francis won star baker
I'm totally turned around on Christine now, I think she's great
rapidly going off Kimberly though- great baker but not very sportsman like is she?! See those faces she pulls when the judges say negative things about her work? Or when someone else is doing well..? She was my winner early on, but not anymore!
Anyone else think a few of them have gained a few pounds?

I'm in agreement with all that Baz...although I've never really liked Kimberly, I would like to push Ruby's miserable chops into a cake mix...I don't mind who wins out of the other three to be honest, I think Becca and Francis have been more consistent than Christine to be fair, saying that if she won I wouldn't be too upset. I'm pleased Glen went, he's ridden is luck for weeks and I'd rather Howard had stayed last week, I'm sure Howard would have been out the door this week though

Ruby is growing on me
Like a wart on a carbuncle. .i.e. get it out of here
no one has stood out for me this yr. . and I can never remember their names, apart form she who needs lancing..
Guess what? I don't like Ruby either. She really annoyed me when she said 'Mel.. i need a talking to' when Mel was helping Francis. Why not say what you mean? 'Mel.. I need the attention back on me'
Glad Glen went - I think he was a bit of a tw@t tbh. Telling Paul he's got a better way of making pastry then putting the crap up and saying 'I think there's enough there to make sure I go through.
I liked Kimberley up until recently, but I think she's getting smug 'I don't know why they panic.. it's quite simple' Yeah, ok..
I like all the other three. Becca seems to have least disasters, but i think she's also had less stand out winners. I love Francis's designs.. but she's not always the best baker. Christine has had a few disasters but I do think she might be the best baker. I also think these three are the nicest people.. they're genuinely happy for people who get praise, but Kimberley wanted to punch Ruby who, in turn, wanted to knife Christine.

I totally agree Kaffy
I feel that I may be a lone voice but I don't mind Ruby, what is more strange is that I don't really dislike any of the contestants. I was disappointed that Howard did not progress further as you have to support your hometown contestant don't you
The people I do dislike are 'Smell & Poo' (Mel and Sue).

Don't you have elephants' feet on the west? A profiterole to me is little thing that you need at least five off in one sitting... you can only eat one elephants' foot.

Never seen or heard of anything that size before.
evening bakersHello all
Hi there.
evening
I'm beginning to feel like Kaytee's stalker *get Ruby out*
Kimberly's looks good
I wish it was cake, not bread
And I want Ruby to throw out that cardi!

exactly Sweet...cheap and filling
Originally Posted by ~Lady Summer~:

Yeah. more likely!
I'm eating a homemade (by a friend) carrot cake right now
they all look better than they taste
Kimberley doesn't take criticism well does she!

Kimberly and Ruby
Wanted to say 'looks like Kimberley and Ruby are the best here' but there wasn't time before they were giving the results.

Ruby always manages to scrap through
No way I'd have the patience to do all that - even if I TECHNICALLY could do it!
Oh dear. poor Frances!

Christine not quite hit the mark either.
Argh my phone rang!!!!

I thought it was going to be Frances.
How did Francis stay when they keep saying she's not following the brief and is doing more design then taste Christine should have stayed
I'll be holding my breathe next week!
Just caught up...sad that Christine went, but most of them have been inconsistent wish it had been Ruby or Kimberly, but they were better than the other three

Slapping her obviously isn't working. . what's next?
