Masterchef episode 7 Cmon baby Light my fire..ow it’s hot!: Hello Trashies! It’s back, I’m not Dangerously, but it’s still Masterchef. I’ll be picking up from where Masterchef recaps halted on ‘the old place’, and using the same nicks – which means so far that the Jesse is nicknamed Princess Peach, and that’s about it. I have no idea who Princess Peach is, but it sounds like it suits Jesse. Ok I just googled it, yes it fits, in fact that’s frightening. Oh and James is ‘David Jesus Cross’. We have some catching up to do so lets dive in. The trend this season for upping the ante on surprises hits new heights and risks being genuinely interesting, and ultimately a little sad. Unlike Gordon’s rehash last episode of TG’s ‘surprise chef guest’ which was just sad. Also some quality trash talking is done, and not by Krissi. Well, not to start with, but she joins in, natch. First though, I have to warn you that my spelling might slip back into my native dialect, but bear with me and I will do my best to keep it steady. Or will I? This is my new best friend. Or not, as I’m so fucking unpredictable.The shame of it was I liked him up until this off-the-cuff-prejudice about Europeans. Now I’m leaning towards crucifixion, as it is only his first offense. Anyway, my petty rant aside we begin with a recap. The raw fish, the mixer mess up, and bye bye Malcolm – (which I felt bad about, he seemed nice.). Then there’s a taster of what’s to come, and true to form the editing pixies give away a lot. Hints of a Beth based meltdown, which is curious as she seems fairly steady. Krissi is Ms Shouty, big shock. Then you see the team that is in the pressure test. Awesome Fox, awesome. The Masterchef logo appears at last! The mini’s are in a city hall (an iconic one, no less. Usually that means it’s ripped off its look from Ancient Greece). No comedy vehicles this time, for the mini’s or the judges. This means ‘serious guests’ time – it turns out to be 101 Firefighters. We get the inevitable vox-pop of someone who has a relative who does this, and it’s Bethy. But she keeps it fairly low key, just saying she’ll be disappointed in herself if she messes up as her Dad is a firefighter, and I start to like her for the first time this season. Now TG is doing a Walmart promo. It’s not as uncomfortable as when he tried shilling knives to Gino in season 2, but TG is not a great salesman, he reads out his lines sounding about as excited as the mini’s are to be hearing this. I bet he lost the game of rock-scissor-paper backstage with Gordy and Bastage to see who had to do this, so its his own fault. Anyway, I can’t knock Walmart myself, I get all my [...]
