I do not look forward to seeing an excerpt of this on Saturday Kitchen in 3 years time :neutral_face:

Anita Harris – Singer who rose to fame with the Cliff Adams Singers

Surely most famous for the Carry On films!

The VTs are always awful, I treat them like an ad break and do something else for 3 minutes

Oh I love them - very little is as good as folks with no training in acting doing a scripted performance. The shorter big-beard dude with his wife was exceptional in this respect.

I’ve never seen such an awkward hug between a married couple

I’ll take your word for it. I was just copying and pasting out of the Radio Times.

Let’s all respect @lastdino’s thread though and take that stuff to the Celebrity Masterchef 2018 thread.

Really liked the look of that pig trotters dish. Have never had them before but reckon I’d be well on board.

Lobster and white chocolate sauce though? Nah mate, not for me.

#33

Hmmm not so sure on trotter. His food is very… visceral

Catching up after a week on holiday. Thought the North East was generally not great, but London already off to a great start.

Really liked Selin last year so very happy she is back. I have booked a table at her restaurant for a treat with the TV next week, massively looking forward to it:

James Cochran looks promising too, he’s caught up in a very bizarre situation with his old restaurant:

Third lad is clearly not up to scratch, which is always a bit awkward.

We went to Selin’s restaurant back in January - it’s dead good!

London week has been interesting - don’t want to spoiler anything but lemme know when you’re caught up

They are always blathering on about ‘the banquet’ on this programme. Gets right on my nutsack.

Not my favourite of the cooking programmes.

I miss Rachel Khoo. She;s in Sweden now you know.

Very disappointed in my Tunbridge Wells brethren (although he is from SOUTHBOROUGH which is a slightly different place to TW)

Surely you should be disgusted rather than disappointed?

Just watched the fish episode. That pie is genuinely shocking. What show does he think he is on? It looks like pub food.

Yep, feels like he can’t have watched even a single episode before

Watched the first couple of scottish courses. I like the lady’s really steely glare.

Also find it funny that the veteran judges always wear their chef uniform all day.

This was a great meal. Really enjoyed the variety and strength of flavour. Highlights were the halloumi, the grilled cauliflower, octopus and the baklava/mozzarella dessert.

Haven’t caught any GBM this week so looking forward to a 5 episode marathon on the weekend.
