Baking ustensils

 

Hey guys, 

 

I've just spotted that the contestant for this year's Great British Bake Off have now been revealed, which got me all excited for the upcoming series!

 

It's a great wholesome and delicious show that I love to watch, and I was wondering if any of you guys follow it too? 

 

Let me know how you like it, what your favourite themed week is, if there's any new theme you'd like to see, and if there's any contestant from the list you're looking forward to getting to know more through their baking creations!🧁🥖🍰🥧🥐

 

I always get really inspired while watching the Bake Off, so I might be using my oven and bringing more baked goods to the office during that time, and maybe share some pictures of what I make with you all as well if you'd like slight_smile

@Cleoriff and @EmilieT 

The Sun [today, Tuesday] has published Ladbroke`s odds on the winner of GBBO 2019:

 

 

More info

Steph Blackwell...................................................  5/4

David Atherton...................................................  5/1

Alice Feuronia.....................................................  6/1

Rosie Brandreth-Poynter....................................  8/1

 

I`m shocked that David id second. Personally, I want Alice to win...

 

 

What do you think guys?

Hmmmm, very interesting @Mi-Amigo thinking

 

More info
My money's on Steph or Alice, but who knows what can happen in the final few episodes! David's done better and better lately, but Rosie I thought was going to leave every time for the past couple of episodes. Those are my thoughts at least, for what it's worth!

@EmilieT .

I hadn`t considered one of those you mentioned but that said...

 

More info
Rosie is another "Pryia" in my opinion - should`ve gone a few weeks back but has been kept in... but doubt she will win it...

I have no idea where those odds came from!

More info
I can't remember a time when David came top of anything except last weeks technical!!
I would place him after Alice. I see they have gone for the easy option with Steph...but to be honest I would like her and Steph to be closer.
Steph, without doubt is Paul Hollywoods favourite. There has been a lot of press about that...He must have been told internally about it (as it's not live) which is why he was a lot cooler towards her last week.
I have no idea why Rosie is still there.

I`ll make one comment not under a spoiler...

If Alice gets sent home tonight then the programme is fixed and Hollywood wants sacking rage

Actually none of the above needed to be under a spoiler as it hasn't anything to do with the GBBO action on TV tonight rofl

my bad... I blame it on old age; continuing habit over the weeks; and Mr Hollywood`s decisions winding me up joy
