October 13, 20168 yr Author I am still in awe at Candice's peacock, that and her pub are among the best showstoppers I have ever seen but the peacock surely clinches it! I like Andrew but I really hope she wins! I can't abide Jane and Selasi has no chance.
October 13, 20168 yr Benjamina :( I really wanted her to reach the final. I was convinced Selasi was going as well, so quite surprised. Candice once again incredible :o Hopefully Jane will be out next week, I just can't warm to her.
October 13, 20168 yr First elimination I kinda disagreed with as Selasi was the weaker baker of the two going by previous weeks (I know they base this decision off this week only but I still feel past weeks should be taken into account at this stage), but at the same time, I suppose it emphasises how one bad week can be at this stage! I'm thinking Candice has won this - that Peacock was pretty stunning - Wouldn't even surprise me if thanks to the luck of the format, Selasi has a great week next week and clinches into the final!

October 14, 20168 yr Selasi surviving week after week having ever even been in contention for star baker is pissing me right off! :( Candice to win. There's no other way actually.

October 15, 20168 yr Author I keep seeing people calling selasi the Roxxy Andrews of Bake Off and it is so true :lol:
October 19, 20168 yr Yay!!! perfect result... Candice to win :cheer: the other two are really annoying, Andrew's face is so slapable at times
October 19, 20168 yr MEH. I don't see why Andrew got Star Baker, I fail to understand how they ranked the technical given that Candice was the only one to soak the sponge effectively and only came 3rd?! I wanted Selasi in the final because he's amusing but he was the weakest baker of the three (even if I hate the other two) so was right he went.
October 19, 20168 yr MEH. I don't see why Andrew got Star Baker, I fail to understand how they ranked the technical given that Candice was the only one to soak the sponge effectively and only came 3rd?! I'd noticed that as well, I can't fathom how Andrew got Star Baker
October 19, 20168 yr I assume they were placing a LOT on the cake being the right colour in the technical given Jane seemed to be the only one that got that right and she won it. I would have actually rather Selasi got through that Jane tbh, 'everyone can make caramel but me!!!' UGH SHUT UP. I think it really will come down to the week as they've all been quite erratic throughout, but I still think Candice has got this.
October 19, 20168 yr Author Yeah Andrew being star baker felt so weird and anticlimactic, even on the episode it was just like "oh Andrew is star baker anyway bye Selasi that's a bigger deal". I think it should have been Candice too, the technical was an odd one. I saw the usual jealous women moaning that Candice had preferential treatment because her cream melted and suddenly they made allowances for melted cream but she wasn't the only one and she still came 3rd in the technical anyway! If anything as said above Candice was paid dust as she actually soaked the sponge :lol: I guess it was one of those technicals though where nobody did everything right so it was a bit of a mish mash. Selasi can quite frankly sit on me but he has been SO lucky the past few weeks that I'm not sad he's gone now. Imo he definitely should have gone last week instead of Benjamina, if not before. He did quite well by staying in the middle a lot while the likes of Rav had disaster weeks! But yes Jane to lose please, I hate her attitude. She seems like such a perfectionist because she's probably used to cleaning up at the village fete baking competition and hates not being the best. She always looks like she's going to break down over any slight criticism and she looks like she's set to kill if anyone snatches a win from her if looks like she is going to do well.
October 20, 20168 yr Odd week this week in terms of star baker - everybody was a bit rubbish, so it was a case of who was least bad. I think Andrew will win overall but Candice seems to be the nation's favourite.
October 20, 20168 yr They're all a bit meh this year. I'm nowhere near as excited for the finale as I usually am.
October 20, 20168 yr Anyone but Jane to win please. I quite enjoyed this week's episode apart from Andrew being the star baker (should've been Candice). Mel & Sue were on top form and it's gonna be sad without them :(
October 20, 20168 yr So basically only Candice can win according to this thread :lol: Tbf only she deserves to win.
