2014 Mini blog. The final!

And the winner is:  Nancy!  Victory for backchat, excellent chignon work and, ultimately, fine, fine baking.

Ooooh controversial? Perhaps I was the one person in Britain hoping for a Luis victory (though possibly mainly as I had him in the sweepstake).  I loved Nancy, but, in the end, my heart was with Richard - five Star Baker prizes, then to be pipped at the post by 'the female finalist'... Gah!!!  His ruddy-cheeked smile was still in place though.  And he can finally take off his ear pencil.

Best technical instructions of the series: "Make twelve lemon tarts". "Write 'colon' on them".

Norman's conquest: The montage at the end is one of my favourite Bake Off traditions, I think - especially as we learnt that "Norman has been writing his autobiography and has reached the age of five." If his whole life story is not immediately dramatised by HBO THERE WILL BE TROUBLE.

Big thanks especially: To my team at work for cake and sweepstake bantz.

BIG BLOG TO FOLLOW...
