Looking forward to it

[suffolk]

9pm is nearly my bedtime

Sewing Bee is at 9 as well ... you’d think that they’d put them on earlier and promote them as family viewing ... or am I totally out of date

[TeresaFoodie]

I am in total agreement suffs. I thought the same when I saw the viewing schedule. I can't remember MC ever being on so late before. I wonder what that's all about.

[Ratatouille]

It IS my bedtime because we are an hour ahead

[Amber]

I’m not going to talk about the food, so that I don’t give any secrets away.....

but....the commentary .
(I didn’t see all of it, but the bits I did see/hear )

[TeresaFoodie]

I did not enjoy it. It was a bit disjointed for some reason. I could not put my foot on it. Or finger either.

[WWordsworth]

I thought most of the dishes looked rather unappetising.

[Ratatouille]

Not overly impressed but it was only the first programme.

[cyprusmoira]

Personally, I think that it is time to overhaul the format and possibly the presenters.

Moira

[WWordsworth]

Possibly, although I like the bits of MC Australia that they have adopted.
Do they call the first exercise the "market challenge" ?
Same as an"open pantry" in the Australian version I think.

[Amber]

Interestingly, I half watched it tonight (other things going on), but didn’t notice the commentary at all.

I’ll have to watch the first episode again.

[WWordsworth]

The standard seemed a bit higher last night..

[WWordsworth]

Chocolate and kale is surely the stuff of nightmares.

[TeresaFoodie]

Chocolate and kale is surely the stuff of nightmares.

What a pointless episode last night...

[Ratatouille]

Game is no ingredient for the unwary but if you are in a competition you just have to have a range of skills and knowledge of ingedients.
It was a similar situation on Mastermind last night there was one contestant who just hadn't studied his specialist subject, got tow questions wrong and gave up. His general knowledge was ven worse. We were wondering just how he got on the programme.

[KC2]

Chocolate and kale is surely the stuff of nightmares.

Yes, we thought that too, a good thing they couldn't taste it!

[aero280]

I thought that the Mastermind guy seemed lost. I ought to have done better on Bazalgette!!

[Ratatouille]

Mr R did better on that man on Greek Mythology.
