Me too! I made shortbread biscuits to watch it with 😋
I really enjoyed 'back to school week' this week! I think the right person went home, though I was sad to see them go.
Missed this thread entirely this year, oops :lol:

I did like back to school week, but I have many, many thoughts about school nostalgia and which generation's school experiences are 'canon'!

The weirdest bit was the technical where they wanted them baking without machines like it was the 1960s. Do they realise how recently most of the contestants were at school?!

Likewise the thing with glass bottles of milk Thatcher snatched the milk 50 years ago!

Yes I do think they were catering to the Boomers there! It’s nice to include school memories from across the generations though.
