I can't stand Noel, he has no sincerity, enthusiasm, or knowledge whatsoever and so he just sounds like my Mum at her MOT.
"I think it needs one of those brake pads. Or maybe a windscreen viper. Hahaha I meant wiper. What do you mean the engine is knocking? Surely you meant rocking and then you shouldn’t have come a-knocking ahhhahaha!"

Anyone get the impression that one of the contestants this year is a vegan?

“Based on his sister’s new bathroom tiles” is the best inspiration for a showstopper.

Great British Bake Off being completely dominated by an Italian and German is entertaining. Bet the Mail comments section is seething.

Three handshakes from the first round of the semi? Standards are high this week.

This is definitely the hardest episode to call ever. I think Jurgen might be going.

Controversial! I was so nearly correct in my original prediction. Come on Chigs you can do it

To reference the opening post, Crystelle is lady Noel Fielding. Come at me.

Controversial! I was so nearly correct in my original prediction. Come on Chigs you can do it Yeah, I think Chiggs might well come out on top. It might have seemed like Giuseppe or Jurgen were always ahead, but Chiggs has improved week on week and is now putting out bakes that are as good and sometimes better than both of them. His technical rounds are his shortcomings, but if he can do okay with that in the final than I expect him to win. Giuseppe is exceptionally good too, although not quite the perfectionist that Jürgen was and don't think he has managed to surprise particularly often. Crystelle has been quietly doing brilliantly. I was finding her quite annoying initially with her faux "oh, this is going to be terrible, I'm so awful at this... What do you mean it is perfect?" act, but can't be denied she has done fantastic. |

chigs for me, or crystelle at a push though i do find her a little irritating...just glad jurgen's gone, he's annoyed me all the way through... absolutely none of my judgement is based on their skill or technicality then...  |

Yeah I don't find her annoying at all. Although I am extremely shallow and really like her face.

Peak Crystelle was when they needed to make something that was based on a favourite childhood toy and she made a vanity mirror cake. Ugh.

She does seem very '*you* getting kicked off is the worst thing thats happened to *me*' but people can suffer in the edit. Maybe they only ever put her reactions in.
Regardless, it looks like its going to be a decent final and they all seem equally skilled.

I was convinced they would take all 4 through. Think they are the best final 4 there has been. Jurgen was absolutely robbed however.

I wondered if they would do that but it did seem to come down to the mythical handshake as the decider.

Late to the party here but can't believe they got rid of Jürgen this week. He was clearly the most knowledgeable and technically proficient baker among them.
Crystelle had a brilliant week but like others have said she can be a bit annoying. Think Chigs will win it now. To be fair he's improved week on week. I'd like Giuseppe to win it though, seems a likeable fella.

Thing is Jurgen was good from the start, the others have massivly improved. Jurgen while very very good he hasnt really changed so i do wonder if the others are now over taking him a bit. Easily the closest contest there has been in years.

Easily the closest contest there has been in years. Watching the semi and final back to back and said the same. Still think it was harsh but guess they can only judge on the performance on the night too. |
