I love baking but only just started to watch this! Methinks I need to do catch up! I have made an outstanding 'Lilt' Cheesecake(pineapple and grapefruit) and only last weekend made profiteroles but with toffee sauce rather than chocolate, they didn't last long in my house so must have been good!

Think I'm gunna head off now and bake some coffee eclairs! I got the baking bug!!!!!!!!

When I was up in Skipton last week we got a truly magnificent pork pie from a Champion butchers - my brother-in-law couldn't praise it highly enough, and it definitely got the thumbs up from me! 🙂

Yes, it was excellent 🙂 Such a shame that any of them have to leave when it gets to this stage as they are all wonderful! I have my ideas for who might win it though 🙂 Couldn't help thinking when the judges were tasting stuff how much I would need to bolus for some of the stuff! 😉

LOL Alan
Well ive championed Mary Anne(1st) all the way but I do think Holly(2nd) is good also.Joe makes to much mistakes Tasmin the same and the old gal cant remember her name well she is good so will say 3rd place to her.
 
I love this programme. The OH is out at footie so I get to sit down and chill and have full control of the remote. I love how rustic and messy Mary Anne's food is, the old girl has grown on me, I love how dizzy she is. I bought the book yesterday so will be baking this weekend.
 
I really wanted some of those cheesecakes... almost droooooling at the TV! :D
 
Alan how do you do it hehe, was just typing myself x

I think Joe to go tonight. yay i can actually watch it as not footy on :D:D
 
Northerner said:
Yes - I think Janet might win it actually, and I fear Holly will go tonight...

Yeah,you know who I think but she does like to push herself all the time, when Mary Anne was spatulating that choccy onto the tin I was drooling :D
 
It's an addictive show, kind of agree Jo is prob gonna be in trouble, think Holly is prob the most skilled, but if I could eat any of there food it would be Mary-Ann's 🙂
