The writing was on the wall for [spoiler]Illiyin. I think Christiaan is the strongest baker, even if he overshoots it sometimes because of his ambition. I don't love any of the finalists, tbh.

Yeah, I think the showstopper didn't really change anything this time.

I feel like either Dylan or Georgie will win. Feels like Georgie is slightly more consistent and Dylan has higher highs, so depends on the day. Although obviously either one could have a bad week. Gill feels like a bit like a sleeper. She seems to be upping her game towards the end of the series (except technicals lol).

I wish they would replace Paul and Noel. Prue's really grown on me, I like that she doesn't rub in their mistakes while still providing feedback. And Allison is great.

I hate Christiaan's hair. Dylan is precious.

Dylan is really talented so I'm happy to see him loosening up a little and joking around with the other bakers some more. I absolutely love Allison. Same with Nelly. I miss her and how she turned the tables and messed with Noel.

Is mint and chocolate really a hated combo in the UK??? I love it so much, that cake looked so good. Meanwhile I think orange and chocolate is awful but they do that constantly.

I agree with you on both counts! Mint chocolate chip was one of my favorite ice cream flavors when I was a kid and I still love Frango mints and Andes mints, but I haaaaaaate chocolate and orange together. I love almost anything chocolate but I am never tempted to take even a tiny bite of my partner's annual Christmas chocolate orange .

I don't know about the UK but I don't think I saw anything mint-choco flavored around outside of the usual after eight chocolates, even the mint-choco icecream is not super popular from what I see.

Orange-choco is more popular probably because of jaffacakes, which I know I see more rips off around.

as an avid mint chocolate lover in the UK, there's a lot! Lindt do mint chocolate truffles and a mint chocolate bar, so do Green and Black's, and Terry's does a mint chocolate ball and there's club bars and Aero and Matchmakers and Galaxy do a banging mint chocolate bar too.
