Britain's Best Home Cook

American viewer catching up on both seasons and really enjoyed the cooks, the judges, and the competition. God Bless British Shows for being genuine, kind, entertaining, without any phoney drama or filth. Loved this!

Season 1 was way better than 2. Had a homey feel with the set up and the contestants. Season 2 feels mass produced like an upscale version of Bake Off. Always having to go back in the episode of S2 and see if I missed an explanation but was probably on editing floor. I'm mostly asking myself "how were some of these people chosen??" S1 were great! S2 im just baffled. And how does judge Chris Bavin NOT know what's brunch?!?

This is the absolute best cooking competition in my humble amateur home cook opinion. The cooks, the judges, the host all get on so well. I have watched so many cooking and baking shows over the years and never I have I felt so emotionally invested into each competitor as I have watching this series. The idea of them developing relationships and living together and cooking together and really learning who their competing against makes it all so very metaphorical in the sense that the ingredients we cook with must all go beautifully together to make something wonderful and these lovely people all come together to make something wonderful as well. What a joy of a show. I hope it continues. I have learned loads from this series and taken so many notes.

These types of shows have been over done in my opinion, & the presenter dressed in black puts me right off with all the touching she does during the show, if I was. Contestant I would certainly complain about that aspect. Mary Berry is outstanding as usual.

I love watching cooking competition shows, but could never be a judge. Boars heart? No thank you.

I can only make rice because I have a rice cooker. Amazed people can do these things. Real people, not trained chefs.

I hope there are more seasons to come.
