I admit to being addicted to these darned cookery competition programmes I really felt for that poor guy who's pudding went badly wrong tonight. Am I the only one watching? Pookie? Or is it just the baking ones that tickle your tastebuds? Not a clue yet who's going to win tho' that poached pear with the praline oozing out of the middle when it was cut looked fantastic! EV

I used to watch it between shifts on a Sunday back when it was presented by Lloyd Grossman. I've just found the 1996 Masterchef recipe book if anyone wants dated-but-ambitious recipes for the amateur cook.

ooh I missed it! I don't often look at what's on, it's just when someone talks about it that I get lured in! Otherwise I am in blissful ignorance I do love any cookery programmes, and could watch them day and night, hence the not looking Maybe I could treat myself to tonights episode on i-player......

As we don't have a TV, that's what I do.
I rather liked the look of the mushroom ravioli.

My oldest friend and I have often spent the entire programme giggling about the amounto of words they can find to replace the word "sauce". we have had, foam, emulsion, reduction, jus, coulis, to name a few...

I rather hope the tough Security guy from Stockport (or was it Southport) wins. I liked his food, it was big! EV
