Great British Bake Off

aggie the Scout shop on line sells badge glue which has let me off the hook of sewing on the Beaver and Cub badges.

Probably the reason I find that trailer nauseating is that I also can't stand The Sound of Music. (anno dives for cover to hide from multitude of enraged grans).

Oh I'm glad I'm not the only one who loves the ad, aggie - I was beginning to doubt my judgement!

I have a Kenwood Chef which my DS bought me last Christmas. I bought one soon after I got married, but stupidly gave it away when I got seduced by the multi-functioned food processors that started to flood the market. I bought a Moulinex processor, found I didn't use a quarter of its functionality, and it fell to bits after a few years. And oh how I wished I'd kept the Chef - and how glad I am to have one again! It sits on the worktop so it's accessible all the time and it gets used often!

I saw Hair for the first time last night , when did it start ? It looked good from the bit I caught

I would far rather watch the sewing programme than GBBO. I have only ever watched snippets whilst adds are on commercial channels.
I'm enjoying watching the new season of Hair.

hope the sewing comes back , I love it , even though it is years since I did proper sewing , you can't really count sewing Scout Badges on his uniform , for my GS

I love the ad !!!!!!

I have a Kenwood mixer OH bought me even though I told him we have no where to put it. I love it and its very useful even for pastry as my hands are arthritic and it hurts, but it has to sit on top of the microwave and its quite heavy so doesn't get used as often as I would like as I just can't be @rsed to lift it down onto the work top.

We love GBBO too but I did get a bit tired of Paul whatsisname.. he gets on my nerves a bit.

I cringe at that trailer, too. GBBO doesn't need hype, just show it as usual and we'll be there.

vegas I've got that KitchenAid Artisan mixer and use it most days. It looks good out on the worktop and has earned its cost many times over. Worth taking the plunge!

I do enjoy watching GBBO, but it's given me mixer envy. I still use the hand held beater I've had for many years, but I would love one of those giant mixers they use - just can't justify the horrendous expense. Wouldn't it be good if GNHQ offered one as a competition prize?

And when it starts at least they can stop using that cringe-inducing trailer with its parody of The Sound of Music.

So many channels - so many unwatchable programs! Bake off is one we all sit down and watch.
