57 Thoughts I Had Watching GBBO - Episode 3

  1. OOooh title sequence.
  2. Mel and Sue are the best.
  3. 'Quick breads'. What are they. FAST BREADS?! Arhhhhhh
  4. Ok thanks for explaining Paul and Mary, I'll nod and try and convince myself I now know what a quickbread is.
  5. This is the most exciting bread-making I've ever watched.
  6. Oh prosciutto guy you have won this already on my account. Well done sir. 
  7. Not sure I'd want cranberries creepin' round in ma bread thanks, Paul 2.0.
  8. Ugne's using chocolate. Prosciutto man has competition.
  9. Ugne's name is very hard to type with a predictive keyboard.
  10. HALFWAY POINT.
  11. Guy with red nose is anxious. Here he is looking non-red-nosed.
  12. Guy with red nose just sighed. Paul just did that thing where he looks over someone's baking and says absolute zilch and the baker melts with anxiety.
  13. Someone's brushing stuff over their bread. I'm now significantly hungrier.
  14. "I can hardly keep my hands off them." - Mary Berry 2k15
  15. HOW ARE EVERYONE'S EYES SO BLUE.
  16. I've just noticed the yellow-ness of Mary's blazer and am in awe of this woman.
  17. How did I not notice that someone's put bacon in their bread.
  18. Mary can smell a lot of baking powder standing over the chocolate and caramel one apparently. Tension. Is. Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
  19. Paul 2.0 is up. Receives handshake from Paul 1.0! Cracking.
  20. Now it's Crusty Baguette time. Yes this is my JAM (in the form of bread not jam)
  21. Ok, Original Paul. How are people going to know that they need steam for their bread? How?! Google, that's how.
  22. These contestants are heroes. Given next to no instructions and they come up with... - well we'll see actually.
  23. Red Nose Man is "not confident". C'mon RNM you can *Doooooo iiiiiittttttt*
  24. Mel's done her job well by reminding unknown male contestant that they're in fact making baguettes and not ciabattas.
  25. Young girl making me nervous with a sharp knife near her hand, of which a finger is already wrapped in an attractive blue plaster.
  26. Anyway, wherever they are, the scenery is hella pretty.
  27. Beeps going off. Baguettes coming out. Breaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
  28. Oh damn some of these look so t-a-s-t-y.
  29. Nooooo! Ciabatta guy has been accused of making ciabatta-like baguettes! Lesson of the day: listen to Mel Giedroyc at all times.
  30. Lots of under-baked baguettes. Sad sad baguettes, deprived of the heat they love so dear.
  31. See, Paul 1.0?! No one knew about the steam.
  32. Yay Ian!!! Baguette King.
  33. Paul Hollywood now destroys dreams apparently. He's that powerful. Must be the eyes.
  34. If I had to write a list of my favourite things, Mel Giedroyc's laugh would be on that list.
  35. Flora may be good but she doesn't even come close to the wonder that was past contestant Ruby's resting bitch face.
  36. 3D bread sculptures. Sounds well easy.
  37. Cute beardy guy is making a bread-cycle. N'awwwwww.
  38. Paul 2.0 is making a lion. With olives (bonus points).
  39. PH: "How're you bonding them together?" RNM: "Gravity." Classic RNM.
  40. Steam everywhere!!! This is what you needed with the baguettes, guys.
  41. Ian the Baguette King is making something in a flower pot. If Ian goes out this week he should definitely create a food chain called Baguette King and have his blue-eyed visage all over bags of delicious perfect baguettes. Just an idea.
  42. Ugne, the Keyboard Enemy, is making bread with coffee and cardamom in. Yes yes yes.
  43. Sue's shirt is ON POINT.
  44. There's a bread snake in the tent. I repeat - bread snake in tent.
  45. Seriously impressed. Their third week and they're already making sculptures with food.
  46. YES, Sandy. Less is totally more.
  47. Alvin has created an insane amount of bread. (This is Ciabatta guy btw.)
  48. Paul "isn't sure" about truffle oil with brioche. Poor Original Paul.
  49. Ian is kicking baking butt.
  50. Paul 1.0 says Paul 2.0's lion is very tasty. GO PAUL (either).
  51. Some cool lady made a bread bed and some of it is raw. Nightmare. Geddit - bed, nightmare, k I'll leave now
  52. I love how Mel concentrates so hard on pretending to understand what on earth Paul and Mary are chatting about.
  53. Aw! Paul gave Paul a special commendation. He deserves it though for that mighty bread lion.
  54. Ian! Star baker and Baguette King. Starry Baguette Baker King.
  55. Cool lady who made the bed of bread is leaving. She's called Dorret (just found this out). Bye, Dorret.
  56. Next week is meringues and soufflés and stuff. 
  57. YEAHHH. Simple really.
