It was but I like Debra’s a bit more. And Cristian’s catsuit. Good challenge!

Brogan’s parka was excellent I thought.

I think they all did well on the last challenge. Debra’s was fab but I agree that the blue blazer dress was great.

It was such a shame Marnie went last week, as I reckon she would have had an excellent Made to Measure this week.

I've just started watching so I'm about 25 mins behind, but I'm really looking forward to this week.

Who won the underwear challenge? For some reason my method for watching really is unreliable tonight

I love Man-ye’s pyjamas and I liked Debra’s spotty ones too

If it had just been based on the made to measure, Cristian would have been booted. His pyjamas were really badly sewn.

Man-Yee and Debra did so well, as did Annie.

I cringed every time they said gusset. :vomit:

I’d like to see Debra and Brogan in the final.

I think Brogan is a bit one trick pony. She is obsessed with puff sleeves and odd bibs. Literally only things that she would wear.

I love Debra, Annie and Man Yee.

I've just watched on catch-up. I loved Man Yee's pyjamas. A worthy garment of the week. Did anyone else shed a little tear for Jill? She had been struggling a bit last week, so it was the right decision, but she was so brave, going into the competition without her prosthetic arm. She was so good, the audience would never have guessed that it was the first time she'd sewn without it.

I don't think it was the first time she had sewn without it, more that the first time she had not used it when out or in company.

She was brave and I imagine been very affirmative to many people with similar.

Patrick would be welcome to remove my bra at anytime. I expect he would be able to do it with one hand.

Basically one's underwear would dissolve.

Annie is my favourite one left. I hope she wins.

He'd just need to look and stroke his moustache.

I don't really have a favourite. I really warmed to Marnie.
