The psycho cunt, the Samoan pedant and the obnoxious egg are back!

Was delighted that Sri Lankan bloke went through the other day. And the hungarian woman with her tofu had me drooling.

Everyone else was a footnote in the last episode, except, even local lad Rhys with his shite hair.

Sod off, Monica, your ragu looked bollocks. Ragu in 20 minutes my arse.

Has Marcus Wareing ever killed a man? He has the eyes of a murderer.

Last one of the decade, lads. Started last night.

So far no one has tried to make a pizza dough out of lobster claws or a three nonce roast, but I live in hope of some hilarious fuckups before the competition proper begins.

Episode 1's highlights: chap mixing up fish roe and passion fruit pulp and adding it back to a half passion fruit shell, which turned my fucking stomach; Italian woman who looked like she was on the verge of tears throughout the entirety of her brief appearance.

Oh, and gels and emulsions are back, it seems. There needs to be a drinking game for gels, emulsions, tuiles, sous vides, Marcus saying "roasted it off" or "roasted/cooked/broiled it down".

Ah sorry, I did look for a thread before I started mine, but not too hard, as it'd dropped off the 1st page. I also only just noticed it on iplayer, tricking me into thinking it'd started last night, instead of over a week ago.

Fuck off critics with your umami.

These chefs should spend more time with cookery rather than tattoo books.

'Treat the broccoli with respect', Monica just said. Everyone knows broccoli is a dirty, dirty vegetable, and deserves everything coming to it.

bgmnts

She is right though, it's an absolute cunt of a veg and needs to be treated with the utmost reverence.

Anyone else think he has some Mark Heap-esque facial expressions sometimes?

Andrew and Arbinder from tonight seem like finalists to me, a person who can never guess finalists.

From the pros I want to see more skills tests like the first round. If you can't trim a fish, bone a chicken, make pasta, or do an egg 10 ways then I don't want to see your canon of lamb with reduced pony blister veloute.

Looked at another way, you could assume they used to be handy with those tasks but as their careers progressed they focused less on prep and more on higher level stuff. But I agree, there's something thrilling when you see someone nail a 15 minute skills test, especially when they're more a test of instincts. I enjoyed that Filipino one with the Belfast accent making a decent fist of a dish and ingredients she'd never seen before.

Hats off to all of them tonight for managing to cook anything at all under the watchful rank eye of Marcus. I like Arbinder, of all the ones this series so far, he's had the most dishes I've really craved. Navy boy is good too.

If Monica can still make a pancake there's no excuse for them to struggle with it.

good skills tests last night with the chicken and loved Exose's big choux full of trifle.

I like the way one of them looks like Andy Dawson and happens to be called Andrew as well.
