Do we know a start time for the show? Me and the husband became addicted to Oz Masterchef and it meant we spent time together!

Well - is everyone watching? I'm really really hoping this will be along the lines of the Australian version, rather than the UK one.
It seems a bit of a bitty start so far, but I suppose that's normal at this stage. |

and S2 is about to start in NZ. plus there's last year's MC US. it'll be a good while before Watch runs out i think. our V+ box is going to start filling up again...
apparently the S2 finale of MC Oz was the third most watched show in Australia since 2001. Iain |

According to Wikipedia there were only 13 eps in the first series
* Spoiler alert * BUT DON'T GO LOOKING THERE AS IT LISTS WHO GOES OUT WHEN So I'll be tuning in to this in the monring - sommat to watch whilst eating my brekkie  Our MC starts soon WOOP WOOP. Can't wait for the new format - I hope it's an improvement as the last series seemed a little dull *HB hides from items thrown by other posters *

I haven't watched it yet, but have it on series link. I got totally hooked on the last series of Australian Masterchef, so quitle looking forward to this although I don't imagine it will be as good.

Watched the first episode this morning. The judge with the glasses (Ray?) reminds me a bit of Mr Mackey from South Park.. the voice is a bit "mmmkay" LOL

I really enjoyed the first show. Some very good contestants so should be a good series.
The woman who lost her dad, fair play to her for going to the auditions, it was an emotional story |

Did that woman just say that the Lord told her the answers in the taste test?

This like the Aussie series is so much better than the UK one tho I have heard a rumour ours is changing this year so here's hoping.
Was gutted the vegan girl didn't get through. I liked her |

Ok, started watching NZ version on YouTube. Enjoying it but finding the background music very distracting.

Just watched it for the first time - quite good, very much like the Australian version, I wonder whet they can deliver that is new? Ross Burden used to be on Ready Steady Cook, but he looks very different ...

Liking the format so far for this NZ version to select the actual contestants. Think that's been adopted for the revamped UK version.
So tomorrow we start evicting sorry elimnating the contestants one by one My favs are Karyn and Rob (rather hot in a 'bit of ruff' kinda way  )It's amazing how in the last couple of years MC spread across the globe. I think perhaps the most unusual ones are Indonesia, Finland (how many different ways can you cook a Rudolph  ) and Peru (what do they eat out there  ). Not a hope of getting those versions over here d'you think?
