I dunno - seeing Sanet has made me realise that since she left, this has been pretty boring. I don't care who wins, and I don't really care what they cook. But at least when Sanet was in it, I had feelings.

Well that was all really underwhelming and a bit dull, imo.
I'm just catching up on MCA 4 that has been recording in the mornings - I'm up to the elimination challenge with Wade, Alice and Ben and the weird calamari/snapper/squid dish thing. And I'd forgotten how LOVELY Alice is. In fact, I don't remember thinking she was lovely last time round, I seem to remember finding her quite hard work. But she's so funny! And so good when they're interacting with the public and having to sell their team. She just said 'that'll do calamari!' to her food, in what I can only guess is a Sheep Pig reference. It reminded me of (was it?) Cassidy and her 'good luck little cakes!' in the junior series...
I found it dull & underwhelming too Elanor. I knew who the winner was but I still thought they both ( well most of them throughout the series) didn't cook great, amazing food given their ingredients - the children in MC Australia were far better!
Sanet back on form!:D
Oh well, as I said previously - MC NZ to skate next & our own.:)

I read Kamini's blog. For someone working in media and wanting to revolutionise the way media influences food, her website is awful. I could (and probably have) done better on Wordpress!

Karmini allegedly knows Pete very well.;)
I predicted she would win a few shows ago and I noticed that everything she made was 'more or less bl**dy wonderful according to Pete' >:(
They should stop 'fixing' these programmes and have less emphasis on contestants being photogenic rather than the quality of the food they cook.
I can see why they didn't reveal the scores after each round, but it did lose something from not doing that, and seeing how each judge voted each dish.
Also pretty weird cooking in the final with your parents/family practically on your shoulder! Bizarre.
Anyway we made it to the end. I don't think it was a great series, the quality definitely seemed a bit questionable at times even in the run up to the final, but it was moderately entertaining enough if no MCA.

Really? How?
Just watched the final, whilst I really hoped Kamini wouldn't win (I found her irritating) I do think that she deserved to. Leandri made too many mistakes.

I agree with all of this (especially finding Kamini irritating!) but would also add that I don't think she should have been in the final at all. She should have gone out in both of the two previous rounds when Jason and Ozzy went! I don't usually subscribe to the claims that these things are "fixed for their favourites to win", but it did leave a bit of a bad taste in my mouth.

I cant see either f the boys in the final tho. Jason lacked techniques like folding in one of the dessert challenges and Ozzy didn't seem to be familiar ith quite a few ingredients like duck etc. having said that I think the final should have been leandri and celine.

would it have made a difference?
never mind, MC NZ and MC UK start next week!
Haha nope!!!
Hm. I don't think I'm THAT much of a masochist.
