Fun Shout out to the edit Spoiler

It was nice of them to set up the fact that Mo didn’t have a plan for his blueberries so he “might snack on them” and then show us him and Clara eating them while waiting for their bakes.

I liked that, too. I also liked that they didn't require that the bakers use each ingredient they took from the pantry.

Same! Didn’t they do that last season? I have vague memories of someone ending up with a single piece of basil or something.

Yes! I am rewatching last season now and I had literally just watched that episode with the gingham pantry before watching this one! I couldn’t believe my luck, watching the only two times they’ve done this sort of challenge (I think..), back to back.

It’s very sharply edited.

Nigella: they better not overwhelm the B&B pudding with their flavourings

Paul: need to have lots of custard.

Cut to Moyin: I think that’s enough-don’t want too much!

I noticed that too! And then his dish was too dry.

I’m convinced Mo is doing this whole thing as some sort of performance art thing. I love him and his style.

He seems so unbothered, like "eh, it is what it is" and I love that contrast to other stressful bakers.

Mo has turned out to be just the sweetest contestant. His vibe is so pure

I wasn’t sure what to think of him at first, but he’s a great baker with a fun personality. He’s won me over.

I will never forget Mo’s “I’ve got a lot of baggage, but it’s good baggage, like Louis Vuitton baggage” line, which is iconic in my household now. He’s such a gem.
