Things I Exclaimed At The Great British Bake Off - Week 7: Victorian
- Brace yourself for an assortment of "are you game for this?" jokes.
- I was accused of having a thick top at school once - though it wasn't in such flattering terms...
- What a surprise! - Ian's cooked game before. Actually surprising, however, is that he's about to feed Mary roadkill.
- Note to self: the Victorians were surprisingly shallow about Pie aesthetics.
- And sure enough... Mel comes out with a "game" pun.
- Tamal gets a Hollywood handshake in week 7?! Must be good.
- Flora just went full Neo to dodge that bullet.
- Please read last week's blog/rant for my thoughts on this week's technical.
- I'm fascinated that the editor keeps using Baker Paul for explanations of the bakes, only for him to then mess up his own.
- Mat is not having a good time with the icing in this one.
- At some point, someone will have to explain to me the appeal of eating gold leaf.
- Question: are macarons strictly Victorian?
- A round of applause for the crowning of Ian's Charlotte Russe? Bet Corbyn wouldn't like that.
- Very correct choice for Star Baker.
