anyone else watching the cake porn on bbc2?

Dirt porn on Channel 4 for me OC cleaners!!

i'm loving how the french chef pronounces bramley apple "bromleeeee"

I'm loving the bloke who after hoovering his carpet three times daily, takes the head brush bit of the hoover and makes STRIPES like a LAWN on it, then he won't even go in there!!!!

i had a friend like that
bloody nightmare if i stayed there

It's bizarre to see the two opposite ends of the spectrum....the folks who've not opened the curtains in ten years, and only change their bed linen annually and the stripes bloke who cleans his entire home three times a day and has never ever used the oven

I watched it. Thought it was all a bit silly really. I liked the apples on the floor with the dry ice. Thought the judges were plonkers. Who need a tall pudding FFS.

quite pleased i chose cake porn after that description !! i may have been triggered

I liked the French guy saying anything. Thought the SE Asian woman was a cow though.

the biggest shock of the night was two chefs chose the equally tasteless golden delicious and pink lady to cook with.
what were they thinking???????????

Everyone knows you need a nice Bromeleeeeee for desserts!!!

exactement ma petite choufleur

I know!!!! I was gobsmacked too. The golden delicious has no purpose that I can think of apart from possibly throwing in a fairground side show. Pink Lady are OK to eat as a plain fruit. Not my favourite but I don't mind them.

I thought Bramleys were the only apple any sensible person ever cooked with, although I have used Granny's if I wan them to hold their shape in say a flan.

my choices exactly...i will sometimes use cox if i have an apple craving and i have a bag around they are a decent substitute if the bromleeeees aren't in the cupboard!

Hello all, catching up. Planets you are in the wars aren't you? *rummages in salad drawers where the medicines are kept* I can offer mastitis tubes, fluke and worm doses or a lovely blue antibiotic spray? Hmm, maybe not.
So will rattle my rosary and rub my relic, and waft good vibes towards you.

That's what you call it do you?

Naughty naughty!

*snigger* better than some gnarly old priest offering the rub of his relic

Oh what a horrible image! I'm glad I'd scoffed my bean burger BEFORE reading this

Oh I am sorry Twass! Should look at the clock before posting.
Now, how to distract you? Rollo's hair, what got me was how shiny and bouncy it was, very 'I'm worth it', it made me roar.
Also agree with you lot, Bramley's are the only cooking apple. Making some pies tomorrow if anyone is interested?

i'm honoured

*checks self for worms* i seem to be ok on that score so that's a silver lining

Apple pie would do nicely while we wait for the rhubarb to finish growing. BTW I was using relic just as a euphemism with no age connotations. It just sounded liek a good substitute word for somethign else.

Yes please! I will bring a large vat of custard and a jug of cream

No worries An! I hate rhubarb, but mr tk loves it so we have to agree to differ.

apple pie with cream for me please
