I wasn’t sorry about who went. There’s only so much mileage in making everything look like a cross between Little Red Riding Hood and the Jawas from Star Wars.
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

I loved both Nicole’s and Claire’s dresses this week. I think the right decisions were made.

Nicole for the win!

He needs to go on Project Catwalk or something. I hated his garments. :))

I can't see a floral bomber without thinking of Mary Berry and Sandy Toksvig.

I like Nicole best now and I wasn't keen on her at first. The right person definitely went.

Aye, in week one I was properly rolling my eyes at her. I think she has a great eye for colour.

I've just watched this weeks episode and I've gone right off Therese.

Did anyone notice how she yanked the woollen dress off the model? Nearly took the head off the poor girl. Rude.

Monica is my favourite.

I won a bomber jacket on eBay. This one. If it looks shit, it can go back on.

I've binged over a few days and am up to date.

I'm not keen on the older lady, and pleased she's been in trouble a few times. I like how some of the sewers are completely keeping to their own aesthetics this series.

Me too, on both counts :sing:. Claire annoyed me to start with but she seems to have warmed up a lot and her sewing is good. Liz is my favourite with Nicole second.

Whatsername to go! With the unfinished jacket!
