I hate agreeing with Mary but Tamal's looks better from a distance. Good comments on taste though.

Ian's well is very effective but you wouldn't want to break it up to eat it. The fact that you can get a bucket of white chocolate is pretty spectacular.

Flora's carousel looks a bit rough but very sweet. It turned into Dismaland when they hacked into it.

Nadiya's peacock is very blue! The tail is the best bit though. I'm glad it tastes good.

"Why is this so popular? I hear last year's final was the most watched programme (after major sport).

What's the attraction?"

I've been on it since series 2..... but it is just so gentle and competition wise it brings out the exact opposite in people that the apprentice did

mel and sue played a good part... they cant be as saucy with the double entrdes now they are on bbc1, and mary and paul can be brutal in such a nice way.....

obviously you sill have stuff like "custardgate" and "the baked alaska sabotage" going on... but even they are gentile...

If Ian wins, I'll be wrestling a bottle of wine.

If Tamal wins, I'll be wrestling with him.

I find if I've failed something, I do better afterwards. maybe he's just relaxed after the day before because he thinks he won't win.

Tamal's does look spectacular. Nadiya's doesn't look as exciting as I expected.

I do love lemon drizzle and it looks like a good cake.

Right, grab the towels, I've got the oil.

But don't be too rough with me, I have to be limber enough for Nadiya's husband later.
