My first time watching the GBBO and a I am glued to the screen. I love Normans accent. So many fantastic ideas. Love Mary.

I knew that guy's scoring technique wouldn't work, the inside is too divided and not rolled!

I'm really impressed already. Most of them seem to be very talented.

grey_so_what

Oh, they are gorgeous looking!.....

grey_so_what

Ah, they are really all very talented, this is going to be a great competition!...

I love the fact that the judges interact with the contestants during judging

stargazer 68

They are ambitious for round one. Can't wait to see what else they can do

Years of those little tubs of cherries in cakes have made me shudder when I hear the word....

eviltwin

that cake looks relatively easy and they are usually the ones people really struggle with. It looks yum.

I'm not a huge fan of glace cherries, my Mam hated them and as a result I've always avoided using them.

Just spotted an Irishman (bloke with beard, don't know his name yet)

grey_so_what

All those cakes are turning out beautifully!

grey_so_what

I'd love a little rack of lamb with cake for afters!...

Toto Wolfcastle

I love the Scottish guy.

eviltwin

I love the thick icing, the skimpy ones don't look as good

tough challenge for the first week

Michellenman

I froze some grapes as a 'treat' for myself while watching this. Oh how naive of me!

dee_mc

Bleurgh, the thought of Norman's multi-flavoured spoon! I made white sauce with my chutney spoon once, yuck, creamy vinegary goodness...

grey_so_what

I'll have the Jaffa cakes please!

grey_so_what

It's like a vet's piece of equipment!!
