Really well done Philip - to have made the final was fantastic and I agree, it was a very close run thing. I loved the way you all supported and encouraged each other even when in the middle of cooking!
As for your amazing food, it's my kind of food! If only I could cook...

Well, I didn't see that coming, Well done Pipa but Philip, you so good and I thought you deserved to win. I'm sure you are too much of a gentleman to agree with me, but you are a superlative cook. Oh you are too kind. Was so chuffed for Pippa, which was well deserved. And for me it was amazing to cook with two very wonderful people in the final. Love them both! |

I dare say many of us on here are very proud of you! You were just amazing, along with your mates, and I could easily have gorged on every single dish you all prepared... Now. It’s official. “Bo is at his happiest when he’s cooking for a crowd.” [Berry, Mary. BBHC BBC 14/6/18] Well, hello, Bo! Just name the date and we’ll all be round. And if Dan is free too, he’ll make some grown men very, very happy indeed... (Pippa only went and did butter bean whip!!! 😂 😂) The butter bean whip, in the bucket, was to die for. Sadly my rendition of “one day”, from Bessie Bunter!: the musical (exclamation mark optional), with face stuffed with my surplus puddings was cut. Actually a musical theatre-themed dinner party is right up my street..... |

Well done Philip. That was a great final and thought the judges had a hard decision as everyone cooked so well. I'd have picked you however as you cook my kind of food. Hope there will be another series next year as it's a great concept and the judges work so well together plus Claudia as the compare was great casting. She is very funny without trying to steal the show. Thank you 😀😀 Oh the dynamic between the judges and Claudia was stunning. |

Finally caught up as well.
Wrong winner IMHO. It should have been our very own Bo. Food designed to please rather than just show off. Yes, I know it is a competition but at the end of the day food is there to bring pleasure to others.
And a cake - whilst it is a very good thing - is just not a dessert. It is a cake. Even if it is a fancy cake with mango in it. There was only one proper pudding in the final.
I appreciate that the edit very much does direct how certain contestants are perceived and she may be very different in real life. But I found Pippa to be absolutely insufferably smug. Right from the first episode. Never once warmed to her.
Final should have been Bo v Katie - warm-hearted and generous spirited food.
(Am I alone in thinking that Cyrus looks like Miles Jupp's younger brother?)

Having said all of that, it won't stop me from entering for next year if they have one!

Go oxfordsimon! I too would enter if I didn't think my recipe for oeuf et pommes de terre frites wasn't just too much for the lovely Dan Doherty.
Oh and the restraining order.

Not sure if you can answer this but how long was it filmed over? Oh the very best experience, filmed over a couple of months. Loved every moment! |

And I am so fond of both Pippa and Dipa. Massively so. |

Well I'm even later but glad I managed to watch to the end without knowing who won... I was convinced you'd got it until the announcement, yours was the dinner party I really wanted to be at!
Great programme, all the contestants came across well and the warmth in the studio seemed absolutely genuine. A real joy to watch and a sense that most of the food would be possible to cook at home - albeit not to the same standard!
Glad you had a good time and thanks for giving me some vicarious pleasure in claiming I 'knew someone' on the programme!
