The Great British Bakeoff

[Ammi]

I said last week that I thought Selasi had a thing for Benjamina, he looks besotted at times:D

..I do think that Ms Berry might flutter a little bit around Selasi as well, Suze...:laugh:...

[Cherry Christmas]

Predictable exit last night, I can see Candice going next week

[LukeB]

of course it was predicable.. what were they suppose to do, send home someone who wasn't that bad? Tom was awful in 3 challenges so he had to go, they are not going to keep someone who is terrible, they are looking for a good baker and the ones who went wasn't.

[Nicky91]

Tom was awful, he definitely was a deserved exit last night, but Selasi getting away with it again :)

[Cherry Christmas]

of course it was predicable.. what were they suppose to do, send home someone who wasn't that bad? Tom was awful in 3 challenges so he had to go, they are not going to keep someone who is terrible, they are looking for a good baker and the ones who went wasn't.

I didn't disagree with the result :hee: i just said it was predictable which made it a bit of a damp squib ending...

[Peppermint]

I think the show is 'predictable' in general, I've guessed correctly every time who would be star baker and who would get sent home. :shrug: I'd say it's quite refreshing that it's 'fair' rather than like with X Factor where they just do random **** for the drama of it.

1) Candice
2) Selasi
3) Tom
4) Andrew
5) Benjamina
6) Jane

[Nicky91]

okay, ready for this :) Tudor Week

[Nicky91]

Come On Candice you can do it :D

[Jessica.]

:omgno: Exciting

[Nicky91]

i am expecting a disaster week for Jane :joker:

[Nicky91]

Jane SeeMore (Seymour) :rolleyes:

[Nicky91]

praying that Selasi will finally be eliminated :fc:

[Braden]

I'm loving these Tudor jokes from Mel and Sue already :love:

[Shaun]

I have no real care for this series :/ dunno if it's because I "like" all of the final 5 and don't have a real favourite.

[Nicky91]

I admire Candice her bravery doing 2 different pies, and 2 different fillings :)

[Braden]

I've found the last two episode quite boring, Shaun.

I don't know if it's because of the drama that's went on around the show, but I don't see how that would affect the quality of this series. I just think it's lacking a spark the last few seasons had.

[Jessica.]

I like them all too Shaun :worry:

[Nicky91]

Selasi having a soggy pie :facepalm:

[Jessica.]

Looks like everyone is starting to flop already

[Jessica.]

Jane made a tray of flakey boobs

[Nicky91]

Jane is already having a disaster :(

Selasi having a soggy pie :(

[Nicky91]

oops Benjamina :laugh:

[Nicky91]

oh Candice looking in a bit of trouble :(

[Nicky91]

okay round 1 ranking for me

1. Andrew

2. Selasi

3. Jane

4. Benjamina


-----------
5. Candice

[Shaun]

I've found the last two episode quite boring, Shaun.

I don't know if it's because of the drama that's went on around the show, but I don't see how that would affect the quality of this series. I just think it's lacking a spark the last few seasons had.

Probably just the knowledge that the show as we know it is about to end </3

[Jessica.]

Andrews presentation was my favourite but Benjamina's were my favourite overall

[Nicky91]

i think Candice her time is up :sad:

[Braden]

Probably just the knowledge that the show as we know it is about to end </3

Yeah, and that genuinely makes me a little bit sad :p

[Nicky91]

what a difficult technical challenge :)

[Nicky91]

Jane is definitely the worst baker of the 5 remaining :)

[Jessica.]

Those diagrams are just throwing people off tbh

[Shaun]

no one wants to eat something from 1600 :nono: drop this week Paul!!!!

especially game pies :yuk:

[Nicky91]

Candice has got the best design, i think, Jane probably the worst :)

[Nicky91]

technical challenge ranking for me

1. Candice

2. Andrew

3. Benjamina

4. Selasi

5. Jane

[Jessica.]

You called it :O

[Nicky91]

yeah Candice first time 1st place technical, and Jane first time bottom of the technical

[Nicky91]

i think Selasi or Jane could be in trouble now

[Shaun]

Benjamina's looks pretty :flutter:

(mind you I said this about Jane's abstract collars and look how that turned out)

[Jessica.]

In all fairness, it's not an art contest, might as well give them a bit of play dough if they are obviously just going to judge the design.

[Shaun]

Ooooh golden Selasi :flutter:

[Nicky91]

peacock for Candice, hopefully it works :)

[Jessica.]

What has a peacock got to do with GoT?

[Braden]

So Candice is the person who makes a peacock that completely ****s over Ruby Tandoh's? :p

[Nicky91]

i don't know, and Candice seems really posh or is it just me :)

[Shaun]

idk if I'll miss Sue&Mel or Mary most

[Jessica.]

Jane's looks very informal

[Nicky91]

please Candice for star baker :fc:

[Shaun]

Selasi, Benjamina & Candice's all look great.

The other two...eh...

edit: just realised they're my three favourites in my sig :joker: oops the bias

[Nicky91]

candice her peacock looking very stunning if you ask me :)

[Jessica.]

the poles look very suggestive on andrews

[Braden]

I love how they were all looking at the bakes with amusement, but Jane was just like 'I'm so ****ing tired right now :bored:'

[LukeB]

Candice :clap1:

[Nicky91]

wow Candice :clap1:

[Shaun]

:clap1:

[Nicky91]

Selasi's look quite wet :(

[Nicky91]

Candice for star baker this week :fc:

[Shaun]

ugh

about to lose a fave

[Nicky91]

YEAH Candice star baker :clap1:

[LukeB]

:lovedup: Candice.. her 3rd star baker

[Shaun]

D: wasn't expecting her to go

[Nicky91]

what Benjamina :shocked:


I thought Selasi would go :(

[Nicky91]

D: wasn't expecting her to go

but Candice 3th time star baker, wow :clap2:

[Jessica.]

i am devastated

[Shaun]

Jane screams "semi final eliminee"

I hope, anyway.

[Braden]

Benjamina?! D:

[Pete.]

I'm mad

[MB.]

Selasi looks quite wet :(

Don't mind me

[Heaven = Winner]

Ugh! I was hoping Jane would go, honestly.

What's worse is that Selasi's probably as good as gone next week </3

[Headie]

Tameka AND Benjamina?

[Pete.]

#BBCSoWhite

[MB.]

Andrew and Jane to both do a Will Young and allow Selasi and Candice to be joint winners please

[Suze]

:shocked: Noooooooooo! :( Benjamina was my favourite to win. Just have to hope for a miracle for Selasi to win now or if not then Candice.

[BigSister]

Think its between Selasi and Andrew for the third finalist as Candice I think has it in the bag and unless Jane has a disaster in all three rounds (Like this week I thought she was a goner but she pulled it out on the showstopper) I think shes almost there. I would probably say Andrew which is a shame as I like Selasi but sometimes you never know. However like last night its a shame to lose anyone at this stage

[Shaun]

As long as Candice and Selasi both make the final I am content. Andrew's a wet drip and Jane...idk... she's always been a bit "meh" on the show and she has an air of superiority about her.

[Cherry Christmas]

I loved all 5, I thought Selasi would go last night I think flirty Mary fought his corner, anyone of them would be worthy winners now. Candice's peacock :love:

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Get Selasi out next week please, then Gingernut the next and it will be perfect

:fc:

[Peppermint]

Candice's peacock was incredible :shocked: So deserved of her third star baker win. I'm worried about people thinking she's the 'obvious winner' though, because we all know most of the time that doesn't happen. Genuinely shocked (but happy) that Benjamina was eliminated over Selasi (I thought she was their pet like Nadiya and could do no wrong tbh), she was the most competition for Candice too so :dance:

1) Candice
2) Selasi
3) Andrew
4) Benjamina
5) Jane

I admire Candice her bravery doing 2 different pies, and 2 different fillings :)
:clap1: She always goes that step further to try to impress.

i think Candice her time is up :sad:
You were saying? :smug:

[LukeB]

I hope Jane or Andrew goes tonight.

[lewis111]

Andrew needs to go

[lewis111]

How did Andrew start pretty much an hour behind but got his in the oven the same time as everyone else

[Pete.]

I want Andrew OUT

[LukeB]

Candice :love:

[LukeB]

Looks like Sel is a gonner

[LukeB]

Candice :amazed:

Twitter will go into meltdown now

[Pete.]

Wow racist

[lewis111]

I grew to love Selasi

[Braden]

Jane to win!

[Cherry Christmas]

Sad for Salasi but he has been on the edge for a few weeks now. Andrew to win

[Ammi]

...SELASI...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....:sad:...I think Mary had a bit of a soft spot for him and then she went and done him in with her fanciful flour sieving notions...yay Candice though and awwww when Mel reapplied her lipstick for her...:lovedup:...

[Nicky91]

Candice to win Bake off, please :), her bakes are all so stunning :), i loved the cherry in the middle of that one fondant fancie :D, i would've also done that i guess

[Cherry Christmas]

It's a shame Selasi stayed over Benjamina last week, Selasi has had a few bad bakes, Benjamina was generally consistent and I feel if she had been in semi finals week we might have seen Jane go home, Selasi was no competition for Jane and I think he was kept in for eye candy and semi final ratings

[Ammi]

...at least Benjamina and Selasi can be reunited on the outside and devote all of their fondant fancies to each other...:lovedup:..

[Peppermint]

Aww, disappointed to see Selasi eliminated but I knew it :( He was lucky to stay last week tbf, I think Paul and Mary both had a soft spot for him though.

1) Candice
2) Selasi
3) Andrew
4) Jane

Sooo hope Candice wins, I think it'll be between her and Jane.

[BigSister]

I think Candice will win and overall she should with three star bakes. As soon as Andrew got star baker I was like yeah selasi is going to go.........

[Suze]

...at least Benjamina and Selasi can be reunited on the outside and devote all of their fondant fancies to each other...:lovedup:..


That's one way to look at it Ammi :D

I am hoping Candice wins out of the remaining three now.

[Shaun]

[LukeB]

Candice did that!

[Christmas Dynasnow]

And we will never see it again..

Fkg disgusting tbh bbc

[Pete.]

A cute final series :love:

[Ross.]

Jane and Candice :love:

[Ross.]

Lowkey hoped for a 'RIP Bakeoff 2010-16' at the end :fan:

[LukeB]

Junior bake off and then that's that no more bbc bake off :omgno:

[Kizzy]

Aw I wanted jane, but her going on the road trip with candice is good... if it's a spin off show it won't be because candice isn't likeable enough on her own or owt.....;)

[Jessica.]

What a lovely final, very pleased.

[MB.]

Junior bake off and then that's that no more bbc bake off :omgno:

Apart from the Christmas specials and all the other BBC Bake Off that's still to come

[armand.kay]

Bye at the Andrew hate in here how gross.

[armand.kay]

But well done to miss candice

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Smh at the undercooked sausage rolls

[Ammi]

...Candice..:love:..a good winner, although I would have been happy whoever won as I liked all three.../in general though I haven't enjoyed this Bake Off as much as I have with all of the others, I'm not sure why...:sad:../Nadia will still be my all time favourite winner...:lovedup:...

[Morgan.]

Apart from the Christmas specials and all the other BBC Bake Off that's still to come

I heard it's going to be an all stars series, but I'm not sure.

So happy Candice won though!

[Cal.]

Absolutely disgusted with that vicious mare's win. Mediocre bakes all series from her.

Meanwhile Jane delivered some fantastic dishes.

[MB.]

Well her three Star Baker wins would suggest otherwise

[Black Dagger]

I love the outrage of her winning by Facebook etc just because she seemed to wear lipstick and that was enough reason to think she was a nasty rancid old slag undeserving of winning.

[Suze]

Happy that Candice won out of the three, Well done her. Congrats to all three for making the Final though.

[Braden]

I haven't watched the episode yet but I'm happy with Candice winning.

I catched the end so I was pleased to see that Candice and Jane are going on a Thelma and Louise-type of baking road trip.

[Firewire]

Candlegend deserved it

[Nicky91]

yeah Candice :clap1: :clap1: aw she got quite emotional :hee:



well at least one of my favourites winning this year :cheer2:, Georgina really i loved her at the start of BB, but her eviction week she became a real villain of that week, so rightfully eliminated


Daisy, so far she's my winner already and nothing will ever change that, she overcome her stage fright, and in a strong year she's doing really well, if she would be in another year with less good dancing celebrities, she might've won, but she made lots of friends and became more well known to us, a very sweet and down to earth, lovely looking fashion model :)


Alana, hopefully she can go far with the apprentice, i find her a strong team leader, at least last week :hee:

[Cherry Christmas]

Happy for her, it was a close final :love:

[Nicky91]

yeah those piggy sausage rolls looked cute as well :)


but also very deserved win from Candice, 3 times star baker, she made the gingerbread pub, which i thought looked amazing, that peacock looked great as well :hee:

[Peppermint]

Queen Candice won!!! :amazed::love:

And rightly so, she was the best overall and the most consistent. Her showstopper was incredible once again. And her reaction to winning was soooo cute and emosh.

I wish they'd tell us who came in 2nd/3rd places though.

[Pete.]

I wish they'd tell us who came in 2nd/3rd places though.

If you trust the end segment Andrew came 3rd, Jane 2nd :p

[Peppermint]

If you trust the end segment Andrew came 3rd, Jane 2nd :p
Yeah I figured that but I'd rather be told than have to assume. :fist:

(Also I'd rather believe that it was the other way round)

[Christmas Lights]

I didn't religiously watch this year's bake off but I caught a few episodes and all of these three were talented Baker's , so i wasn't bothered who won because they were all good but after the final big challenge I knew Candice had it in the bag but well done to all finalists :clap1:

[Peppermint]

Absolutely disgusted with that vicious mare's win. Mediocre bakes all series from her.

Meanwhile Jane delivered some fantastic dishes.
How do you know when you haven't tried them? :suspect:

I mean you can hardly say Jane's bakes looked better than Candice's either, so that argument is void.

Donald Trump refuses to accept result of Great British Bake Off

http://2w6kxc22rrr9mabqt1mglgait6.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Donald-Trump-speech-small.jpg


Donald Trump has shocked political pundits on both sides of the Atlantic by refusing to accept the result of the Great British Bake Off final.

The final was won last night by Candice Brown, but Mr Trump had been a supporter of Andrew Smythe ever since he saw his tropical holiday roulade.

“I can’t accept it. I’m sorry, but I just can’t,” said the micro-handed sociopath and Republican candidate.

We know that the election system in our own great country is rigged. It is, it really is. We know this because I’ve repeated it on many occasions.

“So how do we know that the Great British Bake Off isn’t similarly rigged? After all, it’s run by the BBC, a well-known organisation of communists.

“I can’t think of any other reason. No other reason at all that Andrew Smythe didn’t win. I mean, did you see those clockwork pies?”

His opponent, Hilary Clinton declared herself shocked at Mr Trump’s comments.

“I, for one, am appalled that someone who is the nominee of one of the two major parties would take that position.

“Candice deserved the win for her marzipan peacock alone.”

Mr Trump has also hinted that he may refuse to accept the result of Strictly if Daisy doesn’t win, a move welcomed on twitter by Nicky91 who said "I agree with trump as I love daisy but no I hate her and dont vote for her but do as she is rich and I also like Georgina, no I dont."

what LT, leave me out of this, i don't hate her, i just can't vote for her because i'm from the Netherlands, if i could vote, i would vote lots of times :)

[Peppermint]

As if we needed anymore reasons to be anti-Trump

[Nicky91]

you believe this crap :omgno:

worry not Nicky as me and the TL will vote for Daisy this week on your behalf

:)

[Nicky91]

thank you LT, i appreciate that a lot, and Daisy appreciates that as well, and you'll also make lots of children happy with your votes for her :hee:
