Masterchef...

Been some good contestants on this series so far. Still yet to nail down the contestants to the final few - but my money is on Mat, the bald guy with the dark beard (on telly right now).

Still gutted that young girl on last year didn't win it.

Freakin' love it, always end up hungry after watching it though

Won't watch it since some idiotic, pretentious judge announced that a dish would have been improved with the addition of some grilled bread. :rolleyes:

Love it, watching it now. Would like to enter it one day.

This Matt looks pretty handy. Smoked mash?

Winner!

He looks a bit like a slightly podgy Ming The Merciless.

Yeh watch it on iPlayer all the time aswell. Although, I would I say Celebrity MasterChef is slightly better.

Change their life? Bah!

What about the winner last year, he turned his back on the chance to chainge his life as it was too stressful to work in a professional kitchen!

What are you talking about? James Nathan works in Bentley's Oyster Bar and Grill.

I have to say whoever does the post-production on Masterchef has my utmost respect. They seem to love their drum and bass. I think they were taking requests from DoA at one point.

EDIT: Ah, that was from 2008. In which case, Steven Wallis was last seen performing as the sous chef at various Michelin-starred kitchens but ultimately never fulfilling his promise. And he was on TV in Great British Menu.

Great programme watch every night

icey_haj · 22 Jan 2009 at 21:15

Hahahaha, nice one lee

Insane thread revival...
Anyway, I love the show.

icey_haj · 22 Jan 2009 at 21:26

Whoa, didn't realise it was from last year

The two presenters annoy me, but otherwise I am seriously hooked - tend to watch it on iPlayer when I get in at nights. Agree that I don't like having quarterfinals on Thursday, it seems a bit illogical, but thankfully watching at your own pace on iPlayer gets rid of that annoyance!

Epic telly in my book, watch it religiously. Only gripe is the stupid ingrediants recognition / how much do you want this round in the quarters.

Yeh I like it, but the new time sucks and I've missed all of it.
should have sky+ it but it must be halfway the series by know?

It's still in the first phases of knockout to get to the semis. Will be worth watching from the semis onwards.

I just cannot watch it any longer. The presenters just annoy me now, they speak some utter rubbish at times and 90% of the program just consists of shots of their faces with the same quotes over and over.

oldbag · 22 Jan 2009 at 23:39

For those who watch it should be sent the great dishes made on the show direct to their house when the show ends.
