Right then.. off we go!

who else thinks they put the 'perkins of homosexual nature' against the 'perkins of an ethnic origin' so that they could bin the tin-opening northerners without getting their budget cut by the Beeb..?!


i though the mango crew were going through because all the others effectively had the same concept... even if they were a joke.

Thank God he got shot of the clown who thought opening a tin of mango paste and bunging a bit of cream in it would impress a multi-Michelin-starred chef. What a tool.

She was going for a laid back Caribbean vibe. MiniMan.
hippy

I liked the Yorkshire lad who just thought of goatscheesecake in his head and decided to give it a whirl.

Sturdy Sarah's still as gobby as ever isn't she?

That was just insultingly lazy of them.

I find it astonishing that given that they could cook whatever they wanted and that some had professional experience that they didn't all come out with something worth paying for. But then if they were all competent it would make pretty dull viewing.

Laid back? If she'd been any more laid back she would have been effing horizontal.

Not sure I'd want to eat in "sweat-man"'s restaurant either. Is that a bit salty for you, sir? :blurgh:

One of the 'restaurants' is my local, I'm a friend of a friend of the owners...

I hear they were looking forward to a nice 3 month holiday at the expense of the BBC but the clowns who took over their place got knocked out in week one.

I won't spoil it for anyone but I have to say that the losers couldn't have deserved it more.

She's got a weird mouth hasn't she?
Not that that's a reason to keep them...I just thing Raymond's too nice a bloke to ditch them. Sturdy Sarah and miserable bald bloke would have chased them away with cattle prods given half a chance.

I'm quite glad the closet homos had a gas leak. I dont think I could watch the arrogant tattooed homo cook again. You sir, need a large gun to the forehead for even thinking about fine dining.

"I've split the mash!"

"fk it. its only Raymond Blanc, I'll still serve it, maybe he wont notice."

cock.

As for Wallace and his "I love to eat flowers, they make me feel like a princess" girlfriend?

Christ on a fking bike.

As for recruitment director negotiating about paying for drinks? Er, sorry mate, this is my way of negotiating. I leave, you say nothing.

Your daughter is clearly a fking retard in the kitchen, and by the looks of her, not far of it in real life. 2 days to prepare? Wow, you must be so proud of her, she almost read the tickets right.

Was just about to reply to the thread when I noticed that TIGA84 had EXACTLY paraphrased everything I was going to add to the forum !

Great minds maybe ?!

'Bout time the sweaty bloke and his "friend" came out of the closet - I would guess by now that his friends and family may just have an inkling anyway!

If the flower-eater concentrated more on what needed to be done rather than (sickeningly)gazing longingly at her bloke all day then perhaps the rear part of the restaurant would have been cleared up in time ?

Not sure that the thin-lipped daughter didn't throw in a reference to "mum" last night just to allay any fears that we may have had about that particular relationship.......... !
