a once in a lifetime chance to cook at a GBM banquet (every year)

Angela I'm jealous, I'd love to be able to taste Michaels main course (and Tony's tbf) It just looked beautiful and tender. I'm another one who would like to see Michael and Tony go through.

I want them both through, and both cooking at the banquet - really hoping Tony pulls of a spectacular desert to make it to Friday.

Must say though, Michael's goat dish looked absolutely gorgeous, really liked the sound and look of it.

Was it just me, or did Angela get more and more glamorous with each shot? By the end she had Barbara Cartland eyes and bright pink lipstick.

And according to the trailer, tomorrow her hair's down...

BIB - its the effect Michael is having on her

and me too

If Tony wanted to go for The Flintstones theme then he should have gone all out with a full rib rack or something

or had model cars made up like on The Flintstones titles

One per table should be fine

On the winning dish being North African and fitting the brief. I kind of agree with the comment that he justified the brief but really it's not really North Africa that the Comic Relief money goes to.

Hello
Ang looking very girly tonight, I wonder if she fancies someone?

I dont like the show preview, its suggests Tony has a disaster

Adds to the drama

I have enough drama.

What is all this candy floss eating about?

macsmurray · 07/02/13 - 19:47

Angela's right. It's a lot of work for something that's essentially tasteless

Mishcoll · 07/02/13 - 19:49

Didn't like that dish from Mark - come on Michael

Cherrybomber · 07/02/13 - 19:53

OH nooooo. those noses look delicate!

[Deleted User] · 07/02/13 - 19:54

"Take after their mother!"

macsmurray · 07/02/13 - 19:54

Sod having to make 80 odd noses!

Cherrybomber · 07/02/13 - 19:54

It might not be the best dessert ever but it hits the brief spot on.

tco200 · 07/02/13 - 19:55

Love it when people brush their hair against my food when 'ducking for doughnuts'

It totally did!

Mishcoll · 07/02/13 - 19:56

Love the look of Tonys dish - just hope he makes it now

Cherrybomber · 07/02/13 - 19:58

OH Nooooooooooooooo I want Tony.

Mishcoll · 07/02/13 - 19:58

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo:(

macsmurray · 07/02/13 - 19:59

Tiny should have gone through

Cherrybomber · 07/02/13 - 20:00

Thats Michael through then, I cant see the judges liking Marks menu

Poor Tony, I think its a fix because they couldnt usE his fish dish as The Broons cartoon gaVe him away as the chef!

prehensile · 07/02/13 - 20:00

That scoring just didn't go with the comments :mad:

Gogfumble · 07/02/13 - 20:01

Tony should have gone through with Micheal. His food fitted the brief much more than the other guy and he could have tweaked his main to improve it.

[Deleted User] · 07/02/13 - 20:02

Travesty.

Sorry for double posting but just to reply.

In this series the judges know before hand who is cooking the menu so Tony being in the comic wouldn't have mattered. He should have gone through.

Hey there!
