Not a fan of Christie then? I quite liked her. Dan was very lucky, only previous strengths saved him. Looking forward to the semi final now.

Something about the way Paul slices and picks things up really bugs me.

I thought it was a better series than last years and Alison Hammond fitted right in; but it lost something when Tasha left and the final was all blokes. Good entertainment though, but I prefer the Pottery showdown tbh

Nice twist in the final, as it felt like it might have been a bit predictable going into it. Also suspect that the favourite knew they were the favourite, especially by the time the final challenge rolled around. Based just on the final, I think the right person came through in the end.
Shame that Tasha messed up last week. On a good day, she was probably the best of contestants, although she also seemed to be quite erratic in quality.
I enjoyed this series overall. Thought the contestants all seemed to be nice people, which is fitting for this show. The standard was probably a bit lower than recent years, but I kind of liked that. Often, you have people who are so good that I wonder why they are on the show and not spending their time opening a bakery business instead. The things they were making also had more of a homemade quality to them, which, again, feels right for Bake Off.

I was pleased with the result. When Hollywood said something earlier in the show about showing the most development over the series that seemed to seal the winner

Generally hated most of the contestants this year, but took immense pleasure from neither Captain Fucking Boring or Captain Fucking Annoying winning though.
Quite amusing that the guy who did win it was utterly hopeless for 99% of the series.

It's possible to hate any of that lot (in itself a criticism)?

Poor standard this year. The winner served a raw cake in the technical
Weird, almost like the ‘story’ was the most important thing

Very surprised at the end as I thought Josh had it in the bag, but his showstopper was just a bit underwhelming. Matty will be the next Nadia for sure (says the cynic).

I only watch the Junior version. How often do they drop their bakes at a critical moment in the grown up one?
