Anyone else watch it? Some cracking chefs on there this year IMO. The 23-year old lad who looked exactly the same on that photo of him when he was 14 is who I've got my money on.
Moar freds.

Yep.
I always watch less of it than I intend. Probably because the presenters are always berks.
How many episodes in is it?
I liked William and then Luke and both are gone. My favourite remaining is probably Matthew so he'll go at the next opportunity.
Sean can sod off.
I still prefer Michel Roux though.
When Marcus goes I hope they can bring in Paul Ainsworth, he'd be superb in the role.
Marco Pierre-White would be fun for a season, after which he'd be in prison for setting Greg Wallace on fire. He's legitimately a psychopath.
Someone who'd ACTUALLY be great is Nathan Outlaw.
All his technicals would be fish related and he'd just wank himself silly every time someone cooked a piece of fish perfectly.
Ainsley Harriott and Anthony Worrall-Thompson. Let Ready, Steady, Cook ride again.
I can't be doing with Marcus Wasteman and his Plantagenet beard. Great show nonetheless.
On a vague tangent I found out last night that Michel Roux Jr and Shane MacGowan were born in the same small town, 2.5 years apart. Blew my mind.
Anyone watch the US/Aussie amateurs versions on W?
Wareing is a cock.
Is the John Stones clone still going strong?
Seemed a bit of a posh boy bias in it this year. Childhood holidays in the Seychelles, when I said I wanted to be a chef my mum took me to the local Michelin star restaurant . . .
Top show. Smart money is on Dean.
He's the kitchen equivalent of this, I reckon:

Lawrence deserved that.
Ollie really grew on me, mad swivel-eyed nutter that he is, but the right man won.
Lawrence really picked it up from the start of the semi-final.
Seemed to always be right at the top.
I'm more glad that the Scot didn't win, I didn't like him at all. He's got a banging fiance though so fair play to him.
I thought Matthew was unlucky to go out. Dean fucked his dish for the chef's table but nobody went home directly after that so he got off scott-free since it didn't seem to be taken into account at all later on. That was Matthew's first weak dish that he got sent home off.
Lawrence deserved to win anyway though.
I swear nothing in the chef's kitchens or critic tables etc ever gets taken into account, they are just there to mix the backdrops up a bit.
Not sure if they even film it in the right order.
Lawrence annoyingly brilliant. Top competition this year.
+1 for stuff seeming to be ignore or at least weirdly weighted. They never talk about it much when they're having they're judge chats.
Did the Scottish guy have a wig on or something? Something about him didn't look human.
The judge chats themselves are weird as hell, do we know for sure that all three judges are in the same room?
They usually have one shot of them together but you're right, they do looking a conversation that's been spliced together.
I hate these bullshit MasterChef episodes. Just let them cook in the studio.
I quite like them for something different although some of the tasks you feel get totally ignored in terms of judging anyway.
Errr, this is the PROFESSIONAL Masterchef thread.
I binged watched season 9 of the USA version recently.
LOLs were made.
Some bloke called Eddie Dean from St. Helens, who was about to move to Marbella, applied for Masterchef but didn’t get on. So he decided to open a restaurant (“Wine bar.” In St. Helens? loluwot) so he could go on professional masterchef instead.
I’d rather live in Marbella.
I'm a twit
Well I was voted second best therefore I am the second most important so unless Jimmy takes your side you're shit out of luck, mate.
Just threaten the prick with a ladle.
When's the next season of Professional MasterChef then?
The adulation of my peers is all the power I need.
Man of the people.
Should rename this "The People's MasterChef Thread."
For a show I used to regularly watch and enjoy, the Great British Menu is gone into some load of fucking bollocks.
I'm not liking the new kitchen, the theme or the change in time slots.
I loved the daily menu progression.
That woman just saying "that's not my jam" did it for me.
No thanks.
