60 Thoughts I Had Watching GBBO - Episode 4

  1. Mel and Sue now know, if they didn't before, what it's like to live in North West England.
    YEP.
  2. OHMYBAKE, Mary's blazer this week is a thing of dreams.
    IT'S SO MAGICAL
  3. 2 hours for Crème Brulées. We're looking for that "delicate little wobble" says Paul 1.0. Thanks Paul 1.0.
  4. Red Nose Man is back, with an even redder nose.
  5. Sandy's jumper wins 10 points.
  6. Her choice of liquorice loses her 10 points.
  7. Mary + alcohol = guaranteed positive response.
  8. Mel mishearing Alvin and thinking he said "edible pants". Just this.
  9. Nadiya's Cinnamon Tea Crème Brulées sound like per-fection.
  10. "Not everybody's got a blow torch." EXACTLY, Mary. Speaking for the common people.
  11. Mary's sniffing Paul 2.0's almond liquor. Mary "looks forward" to his creation (because it contains booze).
  12. RNM is creeping on others' wobbles.
  13. Sue just did an impression of Jessica Rabbit's 'wobble'. Sometimes this show is better than actually eating cake.
  14. Noooooooooooooooooooo. Paul 2.0's alcoholic brulees have gone wrong.
  15. Mel has now gone and stuck her hands through some of Flora's edible tuile biscuits to wear them as cuffs. They were not trial runs.
  16. Alvin didn't put his grill on! ALLLLLLLVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN (sorry)
  17. Paul 2.0 has created 'Boozy Scrambled Egg'. Sounds a bit like perfection tbh.
  18. Ian, yet again, is on fire. Creamy with a caramel top fire.
  19. Poor RNM. His coconut let him down. It happens to us all.
  20. Poor Alvin. His memory let him down. It happens to us all.
  21. Cute beardy guy has lost at least five of his to Sue. Can't have been bad.
  22. Rainy rainy rain, la la la la laaaaaaa.
  23. The idea of Mary and Paul 1.0 going to a foam party in Woking is better than the dream I had last night about unicorns.
  24. Round 2 is a tall meringue construction. I've never made meringue before and however much I'd love to devour the entire thing (very much) I would not want to have to make it.
    Definitely more complex than A-Level Maths
  25. Ian is actually telling us what to do. This is how good he is. (He could be totally wrong of course)
  26. Alvin thinks a violet is a flower. Good man.
  27. Can Sandy bake the cake stand?! She's doing it anyway. OK.
  28. Ian's overwhipped his cream. First world problems. At least he's letting us all feel a bit more human.
  29. Judging time. RNM's has "different" violets. Don't we all.
  30. Ugne's made an appearance and gurl she's done good.
  31. Mary knew that Ian overmixed the cream. SHE KNOWS EVERYTHING.
  32. Wooooo! Paul 2.0 won a technical!
  33. Alvin's putting pressure on himself for the last challenge.
  34. RNM is in danger! Sandy is in danger! Ok to sum up Paul and Mary's little chat there are a lot of people in danger.
  35. A tower of cheesecakes is the final task.
  36. Ian's going for spices. "Interesting," says Paul 1.0. In a cheesecake though... yeah what's with that.
  37. I've found out Cute Beardy Guy's name. It's Tamal, and his cheesecake creation sounds wunderbar.
  38. Paul 1.0 was just cruelly waiting for Alvin to comment on his own failure so he could agree.
  39. Mary loves the fact that Paul 2.0's using liquor (again). OK PAUL WE KNOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT MARY LIKES TO DRINK OK STOP TRYING TO BE BAKER'S PET THAT'S IAN'S JOB OK
  40. Ombre frosting. How?!
  41. Just googled ombre frosting. Erm ok, it's super beautiful.
  42. Flora's choice of elderflower is a good'un. Approved.
  43. RNM is doing three chocolate cheesecakes on top of each other. He's using honeycomb. His red nose now represents a beacon of genius.
  44. Cute Tamal seems to know his cheesecake stuff. Teach me, Senpai.
  45. Nadiya, you've done AWESOME. Now, make the levitating cheesecake. Or whatever you're doing.
  46. 1 hour left.
  47. Flora's making some macarons to put on the top. She did not plan this. She's just adding them with an hour to go, as you do.
  48. The Bake Off music is getting louder now... 5 MINUTES! ERRRMEEEGHEEERD
  49. Cute Tamal saved Sandy's cheesecake like the heroic baker he is. Ahhh, Tamal.
  50. Ian's creation looked a-mazing. I do not jest.
  51. Mary's been hatin' a lot on bleeding berries this episode.
  52. Oh, Tamal. Your cuteness has not only saved Sandy but helped you make an awesome cheesecake. When are they inventing Tastyvision because we really need that.
  53. NADIYA I DO NOT HAVE WORDS. Holy ****.
  54. Yes, RNM. I send you applause. Through the TV. Into the past.
  55. Ian v Tamal v Nadiya. The game is on.
  56. "The cows of the UK are empty." - Sue Perkins 2k15
  57. Ian won again!
  58. Noooooo. Sandy and her magical jumper are leaving. She's so lovely though. Even though she just tried to throttle Paul Hollywood.
  59. I feel like Ian is going to get a professional baking job after this.
  60. NEXT WEEK IS ICE CREAM ROLLS (dairy free but still). Not one to miss.
