The first episode of this new series was disappointing. Having enjoyed the previous seasons of this American TV comedy, this opening episode dragged along and wasn't as funny or entertaining as usual.

As the contestants get whittled down, the competition is getting tougher, patience is wearing thin and the tension is rising. This is my favourite reality tv cookery based series and I've enjoyed the 3 preceding series.
