Brett as team captain? I think that team might well be losing. Zoe is a strong lead and even though she is young that's not going to make a difference if she performs as well in this kitchen as she normally does in the MC one.
Oh great, wheeling George's mother in again. She doesn't like amyrhung that's not traditional usually. It looks as if Zoe's got a strong team. Tram challenges can throw up surprises, though. |

It's Miles, isn't it? I get those two confused but isn't Brett the one with the eyes and the smirk?.

It's the park ranger rather than the pirate - don't really like either of them
Matt's eyes nearly fell out of his skull when that lamb was wheeled in ![]() Just because there's 2 pins there, I wouldn't want to be on the blue team |

Shows you how memorable some of the contestants are this year - some of them I don't recall seeing from one episode to the next.

Oh crikey, yes, I hadn't thought about that. Let's hope the curse of the blue team doesn't strike!
Love how George's mum looks exactly like him, except a bit older and with hair and added lipstick

Is Chloe doing the same butterscotch sauce she did on her jaffle yesterday?

It sounds like the red team are having a good day - albeit a slow one - in the kitchen. Zoe really knows her Greek cuisine.
I adore feta, but with doughnuts? Not sure about that. |

The crumbly salty cheese with super sweet dough? My idea of food heaven. I seriously adore salt and sweet together, it's such a tongue-tingling combination. Clearly they should have gone a little bit less overboard with the cinnamon sugar on them though.

Charlie in an elimination? Quelle surprise...
It was another close one, and an excellent opportunity for over dramatising the will he/won't he aspect of Matt's immunity pin. What if he doesnt play it and gets eliminated?!

Lol, I think it's because doughnuts are really far too sweet for me. I used to love fruit cake and a very mature cheddar when I could eat cake. And jam and cheese sandwiches, when I could eat jam. And white bread. And dairy.
Sigh. ![]() Although I am trying to temper my eating currently - I'm 6 weeks into being off work sick and my calorie burn is barely in double figures most days! |

*hugs* would hate to have such a restricted diet

I lost five stone in nine weeks when I first got sick. I don't recommend it - it makes it hard to come through emergency surgery!!! ![]() Hope you're better soon, it's no fun at all being sick. |

It does mean you have to get creative and it can be a pita if you're knackered and would just like a sandwich. But I've found ways to substitute for things I can't have and I don't have much of a sweet tooth so I don't miss desserts. Much.

And thanks for the good wishes, I stupidly fell down a hole and broke my leg and my shoulder, but am finally getting better! |

I sympathise with anyone who has to avoid certain food groups, it makes convenience foods hard to come by, but sometimes you really just want to pick a tin of curry paste from the shelf in the supermarket! Shopping now takes twice as long! |

It seems to me to be stretching it a bit to call the first round 'something new' when the only difference from other blindfold taste tests is that the food is in cubes.
Can Charlie survive another elimination? Didn't Julie in the first year do a ton of eliminations and still win? |

That round is SO not fair. They should make them all taste as many cubes as each other because two of the last three hadn't even tried the next one and could have got it wrong too.

I can't believe that Charlie has managed to survive another elimination, only because others were worse than him! Oh who is going to go home out of these guys?
i don't feel as if I know anything about Heather, and not a great deal about the others, aoart from Cecilia. I don't see her as being particularly strong but it's not an easy one to take a punt on! |

Another episode that felt absolutely butchered in the editing to fit the slot, or was it just me? Also, the once inch cube round, what the heck?
Heather was funny - so much lemon she might as well have just crumbed a lemon and served that. But at least most of what she plated looked and tasted good. Think it was right that Cecilia went on the basis of not actually putting much ham in her ham dish (and when did they "lose her the first time"? Was that in an early episode I missed?). Though it is always a bit of an unlevel playing field when everyone gets given a different ingredient, especially if the time is tight. Had a thought -are Gary, George and Matt contractually obliged to always sit in the same order? Do they ever mix it up? Is there any reason why they always have to have the same position? |
