The Great British Bakeoff

[Samuraisan]

I know I don't have to watch it, but having heard so much hype about it, and not having watched previous years, I have to admit, it's quite boring really. Does anyone else think so ?

[woofgang]

I really enjoy it.

I didn't bother watching the last series and haven't watched this either. I'm struggling to bake a decent fruit cake for the village produce show - enough drama going on in my own kitchen!

[curlyperm11]

Totally agree with you!! I've never watched it, but (due to the hype) thought I'd give it a go.....
Don't care for Mel and Sue's innuendo
Paul Hollywood looks 'bored' I find him a bit patronising towards the contestants!
It's not a patch on Masterchef. (Imo)

[chrissa1]

There doesn't seem to be any larger than life characters taking part this year.

[woofgang]

see now I am not that fond of Masterchef and found this years Celeb Masterchef totally unwatchable

[PrettyKittie]

Watch all the cooking programmes, My Kitchen Rules being my favourite ;)

I like the bake off its not my first choice but the format is good imo and the contestants really do care, always find I shed a tear per episode as things generally go horrible wrong from someone and find their sad faces too much :( my favourite thing about the bake off is the show Jo Brand does a day later with all the highlights :) and the poor rejected baker

[marval]

I quite like watching this.

[DaisyNonna]

Not to my taste

[silliemillie]

The strange thing is that I don't enjoy cooking programs normally but like the Bake Off. Don't know why.

I'm quite enjoying the GBBO, but really couldn't be bothered to watch Masterchef any more, I find Gregg Wallace so annoying now. I think that I've got cooking competitions burnout now (apart from GBBO). Bring back the Great British Sewing Bee!

[Cloverjo]

I try to ignore it while my OH watches it. It is very boring.

[Tizzi24]

I enjoy it.

[gingejbee]

As usual...a TV programme that some on here like and others don't.
Just like everything else in life....some like, some don't.

I love the show. As they get rid of contestants each week, they'll be able to spend more air-time with each of those that remain. I also love the little historical pieces every now and then - this week it was how Peek Freans changed the traditional, bland biscuit in 1865.

[naomi24]

I like it. I like competition.

[grannie39]

I think think this show has run its course. hope this is the last, but I like Mary Berry very much

[woofgang]

I think it has nowhere near run its course.

[chaptazbru2]

I prefer Jo Brand's spin off show on Friday night, I chuckle my way through it !

[EcclesCake]

The Extra Slice programme is brilliant. The photos of epic cake fails viewers send in a just brilliant.

[chaptazbru2]

Agree !
