I’m not embarrassed to admit I Was sobbing during Kwame’s hug and again as the credits rolled. Michelle Greenidge as her mother nailed that scene. I thought Fleabag was amazing, but this show was on another level. Wow.

Methylcellulose is a laxative. They use a laxative to make their meringue?! Remind me not to eat at their restaurant!

The fabric was almost identical to my eighty-year old auntie’s favorite shirt! She wears it to every family gathering. 😂

Helena had her first (hilarious) acting job on What We Do in the Shadows.

Always fun to see shows I like intersect. Lilith as Nadja was played by Helena, the goth baker from GBBO.

🤣🤣🤣

I am hoping ghost nadja in a doll ends up with ghost gregor in a doll. Very Chuckie in Child’s Play vibes.

Crickets scream the future. Rabbit I can understand. But veal brains? I guess as long as there’s a dairy industry, there will be veal. Might as well eat their brains. When will cheftestants learn preparing something two or three ways is asking for trouble?

I would hope so, right?

Yup. There’s no way Hasidic-inspired could be high fashion. /s 1990s Gaultier would like to have a word with you.

Right? I feel like if this came out a few months ago I would have watched the first episode and been meh about it. But the show has sucked me in now.

I agree. The humor is not humorous. Last week with the keyboard cat meme circa 2007 was a low point. I’m tired of the constant forced puns. It does feel like previous seasons were just more fun.

Yes! It’s so frustrating.

I’m glad I’m not into gambling because I was wrong on my guess for the final three. Rosa likes making the same fish, doesn’t she. They were off-putting to say the least in this context and made it look like the toilet needed to be cleaned. 💩

I thought it was funny how the judge said making an elevator that works out is hard. What terrible advertising for lego! ”You need to be a lego master to get the moving parts to work!” 🤣

I’d also look terrified if someone scraped off half my face. 😆😆😆

Agreed. Also did anyone else notice they showed Claire and Rosa without makeup but the first shot of Rosalind after camping out all night she already had full makeup?

Meh. Wasn’t a fan of any of the finalists, and I am never a fan of returning artists. Can’t remember seeing pyrography on previous series, but that was an amazing likeness.

Totally in agreement!!

Does anyone else dislike the artists who only draw from their cellphone or tablet? I feel it is disrespectful to the sitter who is holding still for four hours (!) and they never look at them after they take their photo. Zooming in and copying a still image is not the same as drawing a portrait of a live person. It’s been a pet peeve of mine since I started watching the show.

I love reading people’s spoiler theories for this show. Some are likely to be far more exciting than the writers actually come up with!

I got the feeling the show was willing to spend x amount on the weddings which includes fake flowers. Anything above and beyond is out of pocket for the couples. Not a surprise to anyone, Amber wants above and beyond despite being jobless, heavily in-debt, and happily spending her day drinking wine and netflixing.

I might be a big baby, but I turned it off. When did Star Trek turn into the next Saw or Hostel?

I couldn’t get into it. Loved the original season. Well except for killing off Dana and the murder mystery ending. This episode didn’t draw me in. I’ll give it another try next week. Who knows.

They just announced it’s been renewed for a second season!
