Woohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bake off!!!!!
I've made this thread sticky (but no soggy bottoms!) so we can easily get our fix!
I know i hope it is a good series with good contestants.
So, were off and running the first bake is a Madeira cake.
Gin and tonic madeira cake??? That should be good.
Walpaper paste has to be one of the cruelest comments I have heard.
The technical challenge is walnut cake. I really don't think the musician guy will do too well.
Technical challenge went well. None of them were a disaster.
Poor student and Paul. Stuart is the musician and the show stopper challenge
A black forest ghatu?
Saw this and couldn't help but think how drunk I would get, lol

As i though stu the musician was the one to go. he failed on every challenge, so i am not sorry he went i think he deserved it.
The one i felt sorry for was the lady who's cake collapsed.
Biscuits next week should be fun. I love a good biscuit.
I felt so much for the lady whose mousse didn't set! Still love Mel and Sue!
Ladbrokes suspends bets on Great British Bake Off contestant amid fears winner's name has leaked.
I hate people who do this and spoil it for the viewers. Now i have to find out who won!.
I'm looking forward to seeing the next show.
Me too. I am already tipping the lady from perth to win it. I thought her Chocolate gateau was inspired.
I hate spoilers like that!
I must admit I did laugh when she lifted the cake ring and her BFG poured out everywhere! (giggle), that was until I saw the look on her face :( But at least she didn't throw it in the bin like that guy in a previous series! Luckily for her it tasted good and the musician guy had made too many mistakes overall.
I haven't really watched it much since the first series.. because it got too commercial, man! ;)
BBC don't show commercials. Or do you mean popular but i thought that was viral?
Im confused.
It was just a little joke pf - reminiscent of what they say about Glastonbury - which I thought was amusing in reference to a baking competition :)
It started on BBC2, and it was nice that it was a nice cosy show without all the silly pressure and histrionics, then it moved to BBC1 and got a bit "X-factor" I thought? I could be wrong, I might just have been very sensitive at the time, as it didn't seem that way last night and enjoyed it :)
I've only really got into it in the last few series and my middle one is a complete addict... ;) IT's Bake off, Masterchef, Minecraft and youtube for that one ;)
I was really into Masterchef too at one point. COOKING DOESNT GET ANY TOUGHER THAN THIS! (giggle)
I like Mel and Sue too Suzi. It was funny on an episode of 8 Out of Ten Cats when they were talking about when there was some controversy about their innuendos, and Jimmy Carr was reading some of them out and said something like, "that's a bit much isn't it," and (I think) Jon Richardson said to the camera, "Mel and Sue if you're watching, Jimmy Carr thinks you went too far!!" Lol.
Glad to hear there's still a healthy smattering of innuendo in the new series! :)
I forgot to watch episode 2 so I'll have to watch on Sunday.
The biscuit challenge should be fun.
It was- quite a few (whew) moments
I'm really liking this series already. My favourite baker is Mary from Perth. I though she did fantastic in the cakes last week.
I tip her to win.
I like this series too. The comments have been very funny. It looks like it might be a shame to miss.
It's on tomorrow magic or on now on the bbci player.
Don't forget it's on now.
Bread week.
Right result imo
I missed it again as I was watching football. But it Mary from Perth still in it. If you guys want to talk about it I don't mind.
I think she should have gone last week.
Was she lucky? I thought she had a teriffic first week.
The lion bread was a masterpiece I really thought Paul was going to win.
Ian was outstanding. I'm going to try and bake some french bread tomorrow.
It's difficult to get excited about bread week, but that lion was awesome
I find the making of bread really interesting. The lion was truly amazing. He did so well to get so much detail.
Good one tonight. I love desserts.
Herb cheesecake though...
Savoury cheesecakes were all the rage in the 70s. Sandy is going. It is a programme which I relate to although it is heavily staged and edited.
I loved Sandy! She made me smile!
I liked the look of Ian's pomegranate creme brulee.
I they are making merangue. I am confused I would have thought they would not be allowed to use an electric wisk.
They were not allowed blow torch for the brulee.
