    Galway looks promising, how come the winner is known, I don't know who the winner is.
    I think Lisa will get annoying during the week.
    deep fried turkey, first time I seen that.

    I feel really bad for Waterford when you compare the people over these two weeks. There was more entertainment in last nights episode than the entire week in Waterford. :o

    Heston Bluementhal did it on one of his programmed but iirc they were totally kitted out in fireproof gear and had several fire extinguishers at the ready. And your man did it under a canvas awning too didn't he?

    Just watching last night's episode now ... Bruce is so cute at the end! "I can't deal with the turkey right now ... I'm going to find somewhere else to live!"

    The other contestants seem pretty boring so far. Except maybe the psychotherapist, he could be interesting!

    I only just realised I know eugene the Irish dancer.
    Galway is good so far, don't know who won it.
    The turkey looked awful.
    Lisa and mary will get stroppy.

    The affectation was a little bit embarrassing. Why? :confused:

    Fair enough if twas just a bit of craic (which it might have been) but to adopt airs and graces and serve up little more than slop ... eh.

    A pretty funny episode, I enjoyed it :D. Anyone else think Dave Lamb was extra sarky today though?

    Lamb really had it in for Mary! Hilarious. :D

    I think my favourite voiceover moment was him shrieking 'Oh look! It has shrunk!' when she lifted the beef out.

    I think this weeks crew are a nice crowd but they haven't been properly casted. There are no controversial charachters so there is no friction to spice things up a bit. I think CDWM usually needs someone like the "Italian Veggie" from Cork or the "Upper Class" woman from Waterford to give it a bit of an edge.

    The psychotherapist guy with his "did you notice anything about me" thing was just very meh I thought.

    Thought last night was funny with the translations. I usually struggle a bit to read any french menu but when I saw last nights I knew it was a mess. I sent a link to the show to a French friend of mine who hadn't a clue what some of the dishes were, save for the fact that they contained beef or pate.

    If you go to YouTube, its very popular in the south states in America, but it is very dangerous, houses go on fire every year because of the oil buckets falling over. It seems to be an American thing, everything fried. The Turkey looked fine and it only took a third of the time to cook and I suppose for the show it was a novel way of cooking it.

    This week looks promising

    I actually tuned out before the last Dublin episode, the Cork one was great but it was a bit tame after that. Looked at the first Waterford show, but had a bit of faith in Galway as I've met a good few interesting people there so thought it'd be good. Since I've been away - forgive the multi-quote long post!

    Ohhh when I saw that I HOPED it was staged! Otherwise it just looked like he ran up to a stranger, I honestly would've ran after him and given a smack if he did that! (or more realistically, just shouted at him, or sat fuming moaning to friends :o )

    Watching the show, I'd think the same but possibly it was meant in a sarcastic or pseudo posh way. I think she's alright - at least she admitted that she used google to translate her menu. If she was being pretentious, perhaps she might have left that bit out. Sometimes my humour can be a little wry, so if I have the wrong audience, my sarky humour can be taken wrong.

    Yup, but think he had to be to match the characters. They all have their own quirky attributes so that makes it SO much easier to to pick up things to take the piss out of.

    Usually I'd agree with you, but I actually like this bunch.

    You know what? perhaps they should have changed the format somewhat for the Irish episodes considering the population difference to the UK. No doubt they had great people they'd like to have matched together but they were living in different parts of the country. Should have rented a house somewhere in the middle of nowhere. Each person went back to a hostel for the day so they still only had the night together. The person hosting had the place to themselves to decorate and host a night.

    Phew! guaranteed I've a million mistakes in that post! :pac:

    I think the wishbones explain why they played the music from 'Tales from the Unexpected' earlier!
