Dave = zero sense of humour. You can't like someone like that.

Simple question. Mary Berry or Pru Leith?

Pru

 

[5t3IIa]

I didn’t even watch the BBC version, hash tag, I have to be honest.

 

[wtfftw]

Pru easily.

 

[kittyP]

Yeah I think on balance, Prue

 

[hash tag]

Poor Mary

 

[kittyP]

Poor Mary

I think she is doing alright for herself to be fair

 

[Rebelda]

I liked laughing at how Mary pronounced pistachios. Piss-tar-shios. I'm not fussed either way.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

I prefered Mary because she understood her role on the show - scorn with disapproval occassionally ("shop-bought fondant - you dirty fucking cunt! I'd kill you myself if I weren't so arthritic, etc...") but be nice to the nice people when they'd made a nice cake. Prue went into the show as a more qualified expert than Hollybollocks and people didn't like the two of them seemingly uniting against the great unwashed.

Mary and Prue are much of a muchness but god i miss Mel and Sue so much. Noel is ok but not liking whatisname. they should move Jo Brand to the main show if they can't find a better host, she'd be ideal.

 

[colacubes]

Prue cos she's had her vaccine

 

[Boudicca]

Had to check on Wiki, but Pru Leith is 80, wow!

I have to vote for Mary though as she writes baking books!

 

[cybershot]

Prue because she colour co-ordinates her glasses with her outfits.

 

[nagapie]

Pru definitely has a portrait in the attic.

Mary was born in '35 which makes her 85? And has written 75+ books.
Pru, meanwhile has written 12 cook books (we have one, never used) and 7 novels.

I accept that Pru has skills, but Mary Berry will always be the queen of cakes for me.

But respect to them both for doing a job and being on telly at that age.

Aye, we've taken this years winners advice and used series 3 as our lockdown comfort watch and I find it a much more enjoyable experience. Mel and Sue are a lot to do with that, and they're a lot less fluffy than I remembered.

Junior Bake-Off is back on

Junior Bake-Off is back on

I've been watching this on All4. Its brilliant, much better than the grown up version.

Harry Hill is just perfect for it and the judges are great too.

The kids drop their cakes on the floor at an alarming rate, but they still serve em up
