Tonight’s Bake Off was a Tudor-themed
affair, with Celtic jumbles, pies and marzipan peacocks galore.
It also saw the sad departure of Benjamina;
a talented and likeable baker, with perhaps the laziest thought-up of female
names (when in doubt, stick an A on the end of it). As ever, I tweeted along
with the show, probably missing half of the action whilst struggling to write
something concise about my love for Paul Hollywood.
See below for today’s ramblings; they be about cake.
8:03pm: The day the world ends, Selasi should be the one to make the announcement.8:05pm: Jane's hair would be great to tackle those hard-to-reach cobwebs in the corner.8:06pm: YOU'VE got cogs at the bottom.8:08pm: "I've run out of pie-related puns."
8:10pm: Mel: "Mary and Paul are looking for a firm filling". Too easy.8:15pm: My only Tudor-related joke: Henry VIII’s second wife would never rush into a room. She’d just amble in.8:16pm: Worryingly, they haven't cut to the black lamb who's usually gambling around outside the tent. Is he in a pie?8:19pm: By wearing that light pinky-white shirt, Paul Hollywood is asking for a spillage.8:20pm: Andrew's built a multi-Lazy Susan.8:24pm: There's something strangely sexual about watching Selasi work a tiny pestle and mortar.8:29pm: I'd smash all my jumbles up and call myself an iconoclast.8:32pm: The triangular ones look like Celtic samosas.8:34pm: I did a Celtic poo once.8:40pm: If I was there, I'd make a marzipan codpiece.8:45pm: To mark this week's Tudor-themed #GBBO, I've spent the duration of the programme adopting a Henry VIII stance.8:52pm: "I don't like that". Paul Hollywood channeling Graham Taylor.8:53pm: My favourite early Macca solo song: 'Maybe I'm a Maze".
