  • Ahh, really glad Nadiya stayed! It was a shame to see Flora go but she really over-decorated everything! I think Nadiya's got a good chance in the final, but it's a travesty that Ian made it in my opinion! What do you think?

    NO, No, No! Flora, despite being warned several weeks on the trot, continued to over-decorate everything (I know you eat with your eyes and all that jazz, but it has to taste good as well).

    Congrats to Nadiya, on getting star baker though.

    Come on Ian, pull your socks up, you can do it (I certainly hope) lol :D:D:D
    Sometimes I wonder...
    "why is that frisbee getting bigger?"

    I think that Ian needs to think about pulling out all the stops, others are showing more consistency.

    I'm sure the only reason that Ian stayed was because he had won Star Baker three time.
    Of course I want Tamal to win, but I think Nadiya is the front runner going into the final. What do other people think?

    It's a one horse race that doesn't involve the stallions.

    Did any one watch the one show yesterday? The finalists appeared on the show. I couldn't see any clues of who could have won. Any one noticed anything unusual about the trio?
