...and that will never go until they leave the show unfortunately Evan44... in all of the years that I have watched the show not once has Matt ever made a criticism based on who he fancies... he's the only fair one there and the only one that has any integrity whatsoever... I don't always agree with Matt's decisions but then I'm not the one tasting the dishes... but he judges the food... not the contestants themselves which shows his true professionalism... when I do ever watch the tedious 'Masterclasses'... being that Matt calls himself a 'cook' and not a 'Chef' and cooks food accordingly I watch his most times... Matt is firmly based and also honest which is why I like him so much... cheers.
