When they do these challenges, is it hypothetical money in the til. Or do the customers actually pay in the restaurants?

I assume it'd be hypothetical, it just wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't.
 
I would think it would be hypothetical. The show would have to pay for it surely. Would you be willing to pay for a meal that might be utter shite? But then maybe people just want to get themselves on the telly!!
 
Weepy girl needs to go - she keeps putting me right off watching, or maybe I'm really just bored with this whole deal. Really only feel interested in the cooking lessons on friday.
 
Oh Kevin, you silly billy. WHY wouldn't you pick an easy pasta?

Happy to see Emma didn't let us down tonight. Not a full on weep but a few sobs.
 
The challenge seemed a bit unfair, surely they could devise one that ensured everyone was involved to some degree?

Glad Jules stayed, she was invisible until tonight.

and Yes while Emma didn't sob, she had the watering red eyes for sure.
 
And damn we almost got the chance to dump weepy, still big doofus deserved to go for his ridiculous lasagne.
Love that Asian lady and th e- big, fat, ugly fettucine.
 
Kevin was a dick for picking that pasta, but it was a dumb challenge.

It should have been either
a) you have two minutes to write down as many names of pastas as you can and six lowest scores go to the next round
or
b) same as they had it, but if you got one wrong, you went to the end of the line and hoped every one else got it wrong too so you could have another turn.

a) would probably be the fairest one.
 
that must be the most blatant gameplay on masterchef yet :\ it HAD to be gameplay, right? Surely no one would call that lasagne - even she who does not cook (aka, me) wouldn't do that. Who got eliminated in the end, I missed the last part.
 
Thought the bits I watched were so funny, I flip over to Doc Who and just watch the 1st bit of MC.

Anyway, in our house we were guessing pastas and pulling some out of the pantry - tis a funny thing how you don't even think of really obvious ones like macaroni; and our packet of penne was the one we all went 'bloody hell'. When you really think about it not too many pastas we don't call an Italian name.
 
Well Kevin wasn't totally wrong. I looked up Lasagnette online and found out that it is a narrower version of lasagna.
 
If the usual Lasagne sheets weren't one of the choices then I could maybe understand his confusion. If he thought the narrow sheet with the curly edge was lasagne what did he think this was called?

ADIT: Why has king deleted all of his posts relating to Kev lol?

I feel that they are wasting a lot of time on pointless things that have nothing to do with cooking. The whole "first in line to get one wrong" thing was ill-conceived, and I agree that Kev's choice seems like gameplay that backfired.

Moving on a bit, what was the point of the challenge that Fillipo won, where he was allegedly going to be given "a massive advantage"? Turns out his massive advantage was, umm, he got to pick whether they used tomatoes, bacon or lettuce, before being sent straight back into the group to face the next challenge. In other words, no advantage or reward for winning at all, they might as well have skipped the previous challenge altogether.

Oh and the McDonalds kid is either brave or insane, is it any wonder the judges didn't want to taste CRAB CUSTARD dessert with peas or whatever it was? Blech.

I think that has always been the mystery box winner's advantage. They get to pick the key ingredient for the invention test.

I don't know if I like Fillipo. Okay, we get it, you can make bread!

Agreed, blergy on the crab custard dessert! If it was like a savoury Japanese style custard that would be a different story.
 
Oooooooo I love Fillipo, that intense quivery face is awesome to watch.
Who won the sandwich thing? Downton Abbey happened to the end of MC. Could b ethe only time in history DWTS ends on time.
 
Filippo is my fave he needs to win it just for his intensity alone.
The winner was the blond woman that has bitten her lips lots that cooked the Malaysian sandwich .
Up for elimiation is Tk , The polenta sandwich woman and some other guy
 
Thanks for that.
I want Fillipo or roller girl to win, would love a rollerblading tatty girl to win
 
I'd like to see more of some of the other contestants, I feel like we have only been featured on a few of them and I want to see more before I commit myself :-)

How was the heart attack cheese sandwich?
 
Too greasy and fatty in the end.

I thought Kev was trying something on as well, and like emcee said I just assumed they would be writing pasta names down, how hard is it for them to figure these things out!
