Is anyone else thinking that Nigella's week should have been right at the beginning when they were sorting the original wheat from chaff, rather than after MPW's week which was much more complicated and had harder challenges? Nigella's not got the same sort of kudos as a properly trained chef, she's a cook and her challenges could have just as easily been set by a member of the WI - who doesn't make a disproportionate Vicky sponge!

her style is home cooking which in theory they already are, the show is meant to be about turning home cooks into professionals i suppose the counter to that is there are still alot of things around flavour, balance and the fundamental techniques that alot of them dont do very well |

Looks like it's going to be a toss up between Charlie and Con going home today - rubbery pound cake vs dense chocolate cake.

But given that Con didn't take Nigella's advice I reckon he will be gone
Fancy telling him to go to plan B, he barely had a plan A! |

I'd love one of them one day to say, actually, I'm ready to go home, I've had enough.

it was fairly useless advice however, by the time she talked to him there was no way he would have had enough time to prepare and bake anything else anyway

I find it hard to accept that someone born in the 80's could be in their 30's now

I think he would. I take 40 mins from start to finish to make a chocolate fudge cake, and that's mixing everything using a wooden spoon!
