GBBO 2017: Week Eight.


It was with a degree of sadness that we waved goodbye to Liam during tonight’s Great British Bake Off.

Personally, I was surprised he’d be even close to going out when he was so consistent, but it just goes to show just how quickly your fortunes can change if you have a bad week; so it was for Yan last time around and so it was for Liam tonight. Either way, he’s got a naturally lovely quality which I’m sure will stand him in good stead if he decides to persue baking in a media context. Whatever he does I’m sure the experience has given him confidence; he’s very self-assured for one so young.

Here’s tonight’s tweets. Enjoy:

8:01PM: The Bake That Time Forgot.

8:01PM: I banged out three good bakes once.

8:02PM: The Bedfordshire Clanger was Oliver Postgate's favourite dessert.

8:03PM: Paul Hollywood's bits to camera are beautifully lit.

8:05PM: I've always favoured the Hertfordshire Professor Yaffle over the Bedfordshire Clanger in the big Yaffle / Clanger debate.

8:06PM: Show us your clangers.

8:10PM: "Traditionally, slashes would be placed over one end of the clanger..." and Duff McKagans over the other end.

8:10PM: Bedfordshire Clangers are best eaten with a bowl of soup (Dragon).

8:17PM: Prue's wearing her reconstituted abacus jewellery again.

8:19PM: Sophie wants to punch Prue in the fag tunnel.

8:23PM: PAUL: "I came across this particular tart about three years ago"; that's no way to speak about Prue.

8:34PM: There's always one person on this type of programme that you swear at every time they appear on the screen. Can you guess who mine is?

8:40PM: My favourite plinth in Trafalgar Square is the sponge plinth.

8:42PM: The Naked Sponge; wasn't that a gameshow presented by Keith Chegwin?
8:44PM: I wish someone would tick my flavour box.

8:47PM: Kate should make a sponge Gerry Marsden to stand by her sponge Liver Building.

8:50PM: Do you think Henry Kelly would feel self-conscious when panning for gold?

9:04PM: In tribute to Kate's sponge Liver Building, I've made a sponge Albion House.

9:11PM: Not Yan and then Liam. No!

9:12PM: You knew when Sandi was crying so much that it had to be Liam. *Sad face*.
