Anyone watching it ?

I have just started so can someone tell me how many at the start and how many have been eliminated. 

Thanks.

Terrific to see you're both home now, Tippy.

I'm starting to think Elena will win.   Her  ramblings will probably make for

a good cookbook or tv appearances

And I see Mimi is now a prep chef for a tv show now.

Mimi is now working as a prep chef for a new Channel 10 cooking show, My Market Kitchen, hosted by MasterChef Australia season five winner Emma Dean and runner-up Lynton Tapp.

Don't recall either of them. it must have been a memorable series.

I know Ben and Justine have shows on 10.

And then there were 3.

I though Harry was gone, but Elise stuffed up trying to play it safe, whereas Matt and Harry extended themselves beyond their comfort zones.

Go Matt or Harry.

I also thought Harry was gone. It looked like a mess.

Elise's dish even though "clumsy" looked far better but I guess flavour n technique were far more present in Harry's dish.

Thinking back, I'm surprised Elise made it this far. She kept saying she is not herself.

I tend to think that was a way to present herself as being more capable when in fact I just don't think she had it in her.

Go Matt or Harry.

Don't forget Elena. 

[davewil1964]

My barrack deliberately left out Elena. She rubs me the wrong way.

[imastawka]

Maybe Dave, but I think Elena has it in her to go into TV etc, rather than Harry or Matt

She can talk under wet cement and that's what's needed for a cooking show.

Elena would love to own a farm café,

Matt and his best mate are already planning their dream business: a food truck for markets and festivals 

Harry is inspired by a future where he sees himself running eco-tourism experiences in remote parts of Australia and serving delicious food.

Justine annoyed the hell out of me, but she has her own cooking show

[*tippy*toes*]

I was hoping it would be Elise that went last night. I was so happy when she did. I think the only reason she got this far was she was in the right team for the team challenges. The last couple of weeks she seemed to have found herself and turned out a few good things, but prior to that, it was just pure luck that she stayed.

I think Harry will be gone tonight. He seems to have lost himself and only just scraped through last night. He's got it in him to win, or just end up in the top 2, but I think the pressure is getting to him now.

Tonight should be an interesting show.

As for the final 2 tomorrow, does anyone know if the last episode is still filmed close to being live? I know in previous years they had to wait a few months after filming to do the final show, I wasn't sure if it was the same this year or not (this is only the 3rd year we've watched it).

I haven't heard anything about the final,  so can't tell you.

And I can't find any info on-line either.

[kopenhagen5]

Last nights was live. So I think all of finals week is live. (last 4 contestants)

Elise was on a morning program today talking about last nights cook and what she had done today to cheer herself up.

I also think it will be Elena and Matt in the final. But all three would make good chefs.

Wasn't live for me,  lol....I record them all

Better add another 20 mins to the Grand Final
