They did well indeed but even the guy showing them the recipes in the National Park admitted that they wouldn't normally cook in that heat. And I was wondering how come all that meat/food was laying about for ages with no cool boxes etc..
I agree, smow....friends of mine would be freaking out, one of them was done for having mayo in the back of her van in London warmth, not what they were experiencing. Eccles would probably go ballistic.
I actually think they are all really lovely people this year - they all deserve to win but I think the judges favour Alison just a tad over the others.
Thanks for the post, DTC. I cannot be asked to watch any of it. I totally agree with you. It would seem that the BBC have a desire to be outrageously searching for the most ridiculous ideas to ensnare viewers. Citius, Altius, Fortius, it is not.
I thought it was daft too. Standing over hot coals in that heat! Where's health & safety when you need it. I bet the gamekeepers don't eat like that every day though!
I'm glad you've all said this as I recorded it, won't have to make the effort to watch. I never find the episodes when they're cooking for large numbers that interesting anyway.
