Can't believe he weighed up the opportunity to get paid to eat delicious food or be a bigot coddling journalist and he chose the latter

Losing my mind over the little pea hole in the butternut squash πŸ’€ it's like a Georgia O'keefe painting. #MasterChefUK #CelebrityMasterChef

can't stress enough that reaching the point of being this afraid of even putting the word "Israel" in your letter ABOUT ISRAEL is parodically beyond the point of no return for this organisation. #Eurovision

More Clockspiracy Evidence: they had 1 hour and 40 minutes for the pie challenge. We do not see the clock until there is only 10 minutes left.
Prior to this every challenge kicked off with the clock beginning a 60 minute countdown. #MasterChefUK

A screenshot from The Great British Sewing Bee.

It depicts Novello trekking through an arctic landscape, dragging a sled of supplies behind her.

The subtitle reads "I often take my sewing machine on holiday with me."

2 young lads in the cafe frantically trying to do homework before school and I'm honestly just relieved they aren't resorting to AI, they haven't even got their phones on the tables - the old traditions are still alive.
