One more view of Sol in that vest has me thinking that with a bow tie he'd be right at home among the Chippendales. Happy dreams tonight.

I thought he had oiled himself up until I realized it's raining.

Wow, Sol looks buff AF.

You and me both. Sue looks like the damned Cryptkeeper.

Alternately, "You and balls, Jeff".

"The cherry on top of the mess my game has become" would have been an awesome episode title.

@SemiCharmedLife, we're not laughing at you, we're laughing with you. Really.

I don't understand why PBS is making US viewers wait until March of next year when it's currently being aired in the UK. Yes, yes, I know we're frequently a little behind on British shows, but PBS is re-airing the original episodes right now, and I thought it was the lead-up to the new episodes. Color me disappointed that I have to wait another 4 months.

Same. There is a small window when they're just slightly under-ripe (yellow with green edges) when they're perfect for me. Once they're all yellow, they're a bit too ripe for me although I can eat them. (To be fair, bananas are good for you.) But this year, something is off this year with bananas. Even though I follow my well-established standards for picking them, I haven't found a decent banana for months.

Yes, they had Caramel Week only a few episodes ago.

I've heard of profiteroles, but didn't know what they were. If I had to guess, I would have said it was some kind of savory appetizer. That being said, I don't understand how a "stack of profiteroles" is different from a croquembouche, which is a tower of cream puffs. Fun fact: I was at the hair salon today and they were looking for something to watch on Netflix. I said "Well, just turn on The Great British Baking Show!" Because they didn't realize there was a new season, when I searched for it it just came up to this season's first episode. It was fascinating to see contestants I had already forgotten about, and very hard to keep my mouth shut about who went home and who went far.

The banana slices were underneath, it was covered in piped whipped cream. And if you meant there was no banana at all, how is it then a banoffee pie? Presumably it would then just be an "offee pie"!

The illustration in the cookbook did use ROY G BIV, pulling out the indigo to give you a 6 layer cake that was red-orange-yellow-green-blue-violet from top to bottom. It was very obvious that the blueish layers were on the bottom. Becky and Daniel had the order correct but upside down with the violet on the top and the red on the bottom. Jesse and Justin's layers seemed sort of random, unless it was just a failure of how much food coloring they used. I also would have sent Daniel and Becky home and was shocked when the other team's name was called instead. Lastly, when I see a note that says "must serve 8" I would think that the dessert should be big enough to be cut into 8 pieces, not that you need 8 individual desserts.

They used the ginger in their cake and I guess it was only used in the ginger shots. I'm not sure what those are. Did anyone else notice that at least one team tasted stuff during one of the investigations? I thought the rules were they could only look and smell.

That was a beautiful cove they played the jenga game in.
