    I love cooking. Love food. But I would never be a chef.

    Chocolate and mango wouldn't strike me as a combination, seems to be very popular in M&M's world - clearly I need to get out more!

    Do you get the feeling that Marcus is leaning towards Ollie?

    Getting things wrong initially and the going back and doing them again seems to be more important than getting it right first time

    Dunno, there was quite a bit of nitpicking going on - and there is with his dessert as well.

    Darren the Shaky might just nick this!

    Last night's pair weren't exactly standout either...... (or was it the night before, I'm getting confused at this stage!)

    Has to be Sven or Scot as favourite for the final.

    I said at the first week that its between Jamie and Sven, though I wouldn't rule the Geordie out just yet. My money is on Jamie.

    Going to give Jamie's Hogget in salt pastry a shot this weekend. :-)

    Pity that they aren't judged on a league system rather than a play offs as the two lads last night weren't as good as some that have been knocked out already.

    I thought Darren's carrot tower and purple mash looked really odd and his dessert needed some more texture (that's what I've learned from wathcing the show).

    I get the heebees watching them in the restaurants... they really know how to ratchet up the tension.

    The finalists must produce a stunning dish before travelling to San Sebastian in Spain.

    23 Dec 2014
    The three chefs must produce a starter, a main and a dessert to determine who is champion.

    If that's him he's fair put on the weight since. Didn't even recognise him.
