Cooking DOESN'T get tougher than THIS!

Yeah, old Fisher Price barnet only lost because he didn't rate nearly as highly on the winning/surprised face front as the victor.

Mixed bag of cooking on that one. Some of the combinations were doomed from the start and you found yourself tutting away at the cooking errors on display. Old shouty man seems to now find the parody he's made out of himself a little amusing - he couldn't help cracking up slightly as his volume level increased.
 
Greg is turning into a cornflake. Well his face is. Not pleasant when watching a food show.
 
i know, if you read the news of the screws last year, they exposed his alleged love of spank mags amongst other delights :D

Tbh his love of spank magazines makes him slightly more appealing in a peverse sort of way :D

He is one of those people that makes my mouth curl up in distaste whenever I see him.
 
I saw the non-bald one having some dinner in the restaurant above the Clapham North not so long ago (409?). He seemed to like it, which is good enough for me.

As for Masterchef, I can't believe that that dozy woman cooked her asparagus the way she did, it was like she'd never tried to cook it before.....or actually tasted it before serving it. And she "wanted it so much"!
 
i liked the guy last night who cooked fish (i think) with chorrizo and when the judges critised it, said 'i was probably being too chefy and should have kept it simple'. And they were like 'well actually the problem was that you weren't being chefy atall!!' :D
 
To address your earlier point, they've been cooking scallops on Masterchef ever since it came back. It's the ingredient that says 'I reckon I'm a proper chef not a housewife who can knock up a casserole'. If you can do a decent scallop you're halfway to winning the first round.
 
Yer fella Steve was a bit of a mad man. Pork and Mussels? Though over all he was probably the best choice.
 
Well he mentioned surf and turf and tbf, pork and oysters are certainly used together in chinese cooking...but yeah, all the same...WTF?!? :confused: :D :hmm:

Definitely the right winner though, even so. :)

And pork and clams in Portuguese cooking. Could make a case for him I guess, but the whole thing looked a bit of a mess to be fair.

Starter looked interesting mind.

Rubbish! Not one mention of their fav term "passion"!!! :mad:

We've started a new game of "Guess Gregg's expression when they have to decide between the last 2 contestants after the first round" (not a very snappy title I admit).

So far this series, we've had a back of the head rub, a pen in the mouth twizzle (prolly where he picked up his impetigo, thank goodness that's gone), a stroke of the chin, a sucking lemons mouth and last night's kind of vacant stare.
 
Tbh these two make me feel a bit sick.
Mr Poopy pants I can't even look at and the other one- why does he always move his mouth towards the fork, not the other way round?:confused:
 
Before people start talking about tonights can i just say something about yesterday's...

The guy from Cardiff who said that there are no gastropubs in Cardiff so he wanted to take something back to Cardiff... he was full of shit. There are plenty of gastro pubs in Cardiff. Either he was lying for the sake of a story or he knows fuck all about the Cardiff food scene. Either way i was glad he went out despite coming from my home town. If only for the fact he was obviously going to try and be Mr Flamboyant Shirt guy.
