Things I Exclaimed At The Great British Bake Off 2018 - Week 1: Biscuits
WEEK ONE - BISCUITS
- I'm not on board with Paul Hollywood having a full beard.
- At least that's not the weirdest facial hair in the tent, though...
- Bake Off is back, and immediately trolls the Daily Mail, by announcing "Welcome to The Great British Bake Off" and then immediately having somebody [who I now know to be Manon] speaking in a foreign language.
- Why is Prue wearing a collection of clothes pegs as a necklace?
- Basic rule of Bake-Off: If they show footage of your family on week one, you're probably not going to be in the competition for long.
- Oh! Apparently they're all going home because they've shown all of their families... NEW RULES PLEASE!
- "Karen is a product promoter at a local supermarket" ...C'mon Channel 4, it's blatantly Asda; you can say it - anybody would recognise that branding!
- Is it just me, or is Anthony an absolute dreamboat?
- Wait. People home bake Wagon Wheels?! But... you can buy them?! Famously so. They're... they're called Wagon Wheels....
- BAKE OFF FACT: Paul's Wagon Wheels are not as big as they used to be.
- If you told me Terry was Kim-Joy's Dad, I'd believe you.
- Have Noel and Sandi had their hair done by the stylist who worked on Hook?
- The sample image of Terry's biscuit selfie appears to depict Lenin.
- Ruby wins this year's award for "first person to have stress-induced flour both on her face & in her hair".
- In fairness, the final version of Terry's biscuit selfie also appears to depict Lenin. Marks for consistency.
