There's bound to be disagreement as to who is and who isn't. Have to be allowed to be judgemental! (As long as it's kept lighthearted)

Meglet Sep 2021 10:15pm, 21 Sep 2021 22,010 posts	0 Meglet Good first show. The mini rolls really showed who was good with the detail, some of the ‘decoration’ was appalling! Giuseppe abs Crystelle have a great eye for the detail and should be able to go far, I actually thought one of them would be star baker.

Pothunter Sep 2021 10:32pm, 21 Sep 2021 4,755 posts	0 Pothunter There must be a few contestants looking around and thinking they are well out of their depth. Some of those shows stoppers were spectacular! For me Matt and Noel detract from the show. Following Matt’s performance on the Celeb version I had hoped they’d tone it down a bit but alas. WTF does singing the Flintstones theme in German have to do with baking?

Heinzster Sep 2021 10:52pm, 21 Sep 2021 1,859 posts	0 Heinzster I am craving malt loaf. If anyone can direct me to a good recipe please do! Some of the decorations, esp Freya and Crystelle's were exceptional. Lots of strong candidates, lots who may leave quickly unless they pull their socks up.
