I was completely convinced that Simon was gay :eek:

(ETA, and maybe he is! but I really wasn't expecting four bruisers of kids!!!)

Three fine sons Simon has there.

HH - you were close when you said in would be nearly 9.00pm before we saw any cooking

HeidiHeidi

Right, are we done waffling now?

Lets cook!

keps

Chinese delivery is going to take 40 minutes:eek:

Must be a rush on tonight

HeidiHeidi

What on earth was Emma doing to that onion

keps

I hope it's not down to just John and Gregg to chose the winner


Gregg hasn't a bleedin' clue

I would have thought it'll definitely be. It's their gig.

Is this the first time they've cooked three full courses each?

It was a pomegranate, just getting the seeds out.

The water bath raises its ugly head

HeidiHeidi

I'd love to see a costing for these meals.

Seabass as a starter? Guinea fowl stuffed with truffle? Are they subsidised for this, or do they just go bankrupt if they get to the final rounds???

Gawd, that cauli is mad-looking!

keps

How much do they pay Gregg to say


' He has given himslef a lot of work to do - but this is the Masterchef final'

Oops i got my letters wrong way round

monosodium glutamate

(MSG)

HeidiHeidi

What does she mean "make cous cous from scratch" I thought it was just another grain, like rice.... (possibly why she's on MC and I'm not )

Thought that might be what you meant alright

HeidiHeidi

Simon looks like he might explode before the end of the episode......

It's basically very small pasta

Is it really???

I know orzo (??) is pasta of some sort, but never knew that cous cous was - every day's a school day!

Any inklings so far

Hercule is looking ok I think

The 'Jaws' type music does my head in

I'm rooting for Emma. But I don't think she'll do it.

How are they going to take 25 minutes to judge this

HeidiHeidi

Emma's starter looks 'orrible.

i was wolndering about the remaining time too - but I suppose there will be the champagne etc at the end

HeidiHeidi

Tagine looked GAWJUS. Her tart (apart from the base plate still being on!) doesn't look too shabby either. Chocolate, pears and cherries - all winners in my book!

Good effort.

Hercule :eek::eek:

His plates are elegant, I'll give him that.

Couldn't be more different from Emma's plates!

keps

I'd definitely put Hercule ahaead of Emma now

So it's up to Simon to win it from Hercule

HeidiHeidi

I think they might like Hercule's main course!
