Thanks for having me 17 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 4: on the show. 18 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: All right, a quick little backstory here on why we're 19 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 3: talking to Peter. It wasn't too long ago during a 20 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 3: beach step in episode that we got talking about the 21 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 3: Great British Bakeoff and how some of us have taken 22 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 3: to the show and the slow natured quality of about 23 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 3: the friendship behind it. The amazing outfits that we see 24 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 3: from Perue and Noel. Surprising us, however, was when your 25 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 3: brother Andrew emailed saying you've been listening to No Dunks 26 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 3: since we were the Starters. You even sent us a 27 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 3: starter's cake back in the day, a straight up wedgie cake. Peter, 28 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: this is incredible, man. 29 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've just been a massive fan of the show 30 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 4: for so long. You guys kind of brought us into 31 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 4: basketball in quite a big way because we always played 32 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 4: at school. Not a terrific standard in the Scottish school 33 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 4: system over here, but my mid range two games that's 34 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 4: on point, definitely, that's my sweet spot. 35 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, we were stoked when we heard that you were 36 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 3: a fan of the show. To be honest, we were 37 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 3: kind of already pulling for you after that big star 38 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 3: Baker week one, but as soon as we heard that 39 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: you listen to No Dounk's no doubt, we were locked 40 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 3: in on you from then on. Every Monday before we 41 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 3: had start recording the show, JD. Skeets and I, the 42 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 3: main bakeoff watchers, were saying, Hey, Peter, it's looking pretty 43 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 3: good out there for him. I think this guy's gonna win. 44 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 3: Now we finally got this setup. We're finally chatting. You 45 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 3: pulled it off man, the youngest winner in bakeof history. 46 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 3: What's it been like for you to win the Bakeoff? 47 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 4: Speak kind of mental? Actually, yeah, just getting on the 48 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 4: show was crazy enough, because it'd been a huge fan 49 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 4: of the show for so long and you just want 50 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 4: to get on and have fun and be there. And 51 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 4: I just wanted to like go through the process and 52 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 4: stay there as long as I could. But now that 53 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: I've won, it didn't quite sink in for a while 54 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: how big that was. But it's just been the most 55 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 4: crazy world one wardwind after it. Yeah. 56 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, I think it was. It 57 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 3: must have been during the finale one of the hosts, Matt, 58 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: he comes up to you and he says something along 59 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: the lines of, yeah, once this comes out, everybody's going 60 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: to be following you around university with their phone saying, Hey, 61 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: that's the guy from Bankoff, that's the guy that won Bakeoff? 62 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 3: Is that exactly what happened? 63 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: It's been It's been quite chill, but there's you know, 64 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 4: I have a couple of photos with folk every day, 65 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 4: and but they're always really nice. They always come say hi, 66 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 4: They always they're fans of the show. They come and 67 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: say hi. So there's always been good interactions I've been having, 68 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 4: but slightly odd to have people wanting to take a 69 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 4: selfie with me. 70 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 3: What have you been up to since the show ended? 71 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 3: It would spend a little bit about a month now, 72 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: and like you mentioned on the show, you're still a 73 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 3: university student. You still got real life things going on 74 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: as well. 75 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. I finished my exams two days ago from the semester, 76 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 4: so I'm finally clear of exams. So I had that 77 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 4: going on, and then I've just been trying to do 78 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 4: as much fun stuff like this as I possibly can. 79 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 4: This is an absolutely crazy thing. Never thought I'd be 80 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 4: talking on No Dunks, so this is awesome. I was 81 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 4: on Good Morning America live from my university flat. That 82 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 4: was nuts and slightly terrifying. I've been on a kid 83 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 4: show over here in the UK, so I'm just riding 84 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 4: the wave and having fun with it. 85 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: You know, I don't blame you. It was fun to watch. 86 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: I just love the show. I love how honestly how 87 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: friendly everybody is to each other. That is such a 88 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 3: difference when you're watching, you know, JD Skeets and I 89 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 3: were also huge Survivor fans. On Survivory, you get there 90 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 3: day one, they're like, I am not here to make friends, 91 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 3: whereas day one on the bake Off, it seems like 92 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 3: you people have known each other for I don't know, 93 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 3: six years ahead of time or something like that. It 94 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: feels like you're all actually rooting for each other when 95 00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 3: you're out there. 96 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, we side note there. I feel like I know 97 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 4: Survivor from listening to all the No Buffs podcasts over Lockdown. 98 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 4: I've never seen it, but I feel like I know 99 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 4: the show. In the tent, we all got on so well. 100 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 4: It was a genuinely lovely bunch of people, which was 101 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 4: a really good thing because we're lockdown in that bubble 102 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 4: together for eight weeks. But you just wanted everyone to 103 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 4: do well. It only got a little bit odd at 104 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 4: the end when it was into the final and you 105 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 4: wanted everyone to do well, but you wanted yourself to 106 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 4: do just that bit better than everyone else. 107 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and you did. If I'm not mistaken, said 108 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 3: on the show that your flatmates at university didn't know 109 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: you were going to be on the show. Isn't that right? 110 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 3: What happened when you turned it on because I mean, 111 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: obviously you're man. They're probably thinking, oh, Peter just wants 112 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 3: to watch a show, No big deal, let's see what's 113 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 3: going on here. Wait, that's Peter. 114 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 4: Yeah. It was good fun that one of my flatmates 115 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 4: I was flatmate with last year, so he knew all 116 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 4: the way through, right from the start when I was applying. 117 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 4: But then two of them, two new guys this year, 118 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 4: didn't know that I was on the show, so it 119 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,239 Speaker 4: was my name was released I think the week before. 120 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 4: One guy went absolutely nuts. The other guy, Fraser's quite chilled, 121 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 4: quite relaxed. So one morning he just came into the 122 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 4: kitchen for breakfast Peter Brown. The door went, Pete, you're 123 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 4: on bake Off. Yeah, so that was it was quite 124 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 4: nice to have that chilled but not not going absolutely 125 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 4: nuts as most of my friends were. 126 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: Was it hard to keep it from them that you 127 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: actually had won because it had already been taped obviously, 128 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: so we're did did you tell anybody? 129 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 2: Were you? 130 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: Did you have have a hard time keeping it under 131 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: your hat? 132 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 4: I think we myself and Jamie, the flatmate that did 133 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: know the outcome, we had a great time just torturing them. 134 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 4: There's a few weeks that I didn't do so well 135 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: and they thought I was going out and they were 136 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 4: just on the sofa when we're watching it together and 137 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 4: they were terrified. So we had fun mess with them. 138 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: Has it changed the expectations around the flat for you 139 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: at all? Are are your buddies expecting all of your 140 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 3: food to be star baker quality when it comes out 141 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 3: of the oven. 142 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 4: We've got a good flat for food and cooking. We 143 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 4: three of us make bread basically. We've basically got a 144 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 4: fresh loaf every single days. It's good. We go through 145 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 4: a lot, a lot of carbs and I don't know, 146 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 4: I just love to bake, so having people that want 147 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 4: to receive the baking is always good. Lots of friends 148 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 4: around to try stuff, and. 149 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 3: Obviously the skills were already up to snuff before to 150 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 3: even get on the show. I'm sure they're like, man, Peter, 151 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 3: you should apply for the bake off. Haha, gotcha. I 152 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 3: want it instead. But let's get into nitty gritty a 153 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: little bit here. I've got about a billion questions about 154 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: the Bakeoff. You mentioned it before, you were in a 155 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 3: bubble for this season the first time. Obviously that's happened 156 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: you said they were there for eight weeks. From watching 157 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: previous seasons, it feels like the way things work is 158 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: you're there on the weekends, you bake Saturday and Sunday 159 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 3: or whatever these two days are. Then you go back 160 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: and you practice for the next week if you if 161 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: you advance, I assume that's the case. Obviously things were 162 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 3: different during the bubble. You said you were there for 163 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 3: eight weeks. What was that experience like, Yeah, it was. 164 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 4: It was quite an interesting summer that I had being 165 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 4: locked down in a hotel with you know, Matt, Noel, 166 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 4: Paul and Prue all the other bakers. I thought it 167 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 4: was the most fun place to be because the rest 168 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: of the UK was locked down and we were in 169 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 4: a baking bubble, playing tennis, playing football, baking up a 170 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 4: storm in the tent. So we just had a great, 171 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 4: a great time in there. It was quite intense, loads 172 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: and loads of baking. We'd filmed two days on and 173 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 4: then have two days off where we'd practice in practice 174 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 4: tents that they'd set up. But you know, I love baking. 175 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 4: I love people around that were chatting about baking. So 176 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 4: it was just the best summer camp that you could 177 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 4: possibly be in. 178 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: And you're a Bakeoff super fan, so you know, I 179 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 3: think the tip you gave about listening to your cakes 180 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 3: you got that from watching Bakeoff. If I'm not mistaken right, 181 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: I'm listening to my own baking right now. I don't 182 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 3: know what I'm supposed to be listening for, but I 183 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 3: like to put my ear next to it so I 184 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: feel like I'm doing the right thing. It must have 185 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: been awesome for you not only to make it to 186 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 3: the Bakeoff, to not only be competing in it, but 187 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 3: like you're saying, you are getting to spend a whole 188 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 3: bunch more time with Paul and Prue and Matt and 189 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 3: Noll than probably contestants had in the past. It must 190 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,599 Speaker 3: have been pretty cool to be I don't know. It 191 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 3: seemed like you were in a stately manner for your bubble, 192 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 3: which that's all right too, But it must be really 193 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 3: cool to be just seeing these legends walking around. 194 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was formal because I'm just such a Bakeoff 195 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 4: nerd and a Bakeoff geek. It was like Bakeoff overload 196 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 4: every single day, and some of the crew as well. 197 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 4: Some of the crew had been working on the show 198 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 4: for all eleven series that there had been, so you 199 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 4: were hearing stories about years gone by, and I was 200 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 4: just taking it all in and loving it all. 201 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 3: Is there any reason that you know or is it 202 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 3: just a thing that has always been the case. Why 203 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: does the Bakeoff happen in a tent? Why a tent? 204 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, the tent is a weird one. I think it's 205 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 4: just because it was in the tent. The first year 206 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 4: that they ever did it, they moved around different parts 207 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 4: of the UK every week, so I think the tent 208 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 4: was there so it was like mobile they can move 209 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 4: it round to different parts of the UK, and then 210 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 4: it just became such a massive hit, and the tent 211 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 4: is so much a part of the cozy field to 212 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 4: the show. If the Bakeoff wasn't in a tent, it 213 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 4: wouldn't be the Bakeoff. I don't think it certainly raised 214 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 4: some challenges when you're baking, but it's that cozy, fun 215 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 4: field that we all look for from the Bakeoff. 216 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 3: I'd certainly become an iconic piece of the show. But 217 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 3: like you're saying, it seems like y'all would run into 218 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 3: some troubles when it would get super duper hot outside 219 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 3: and then you're inside this. I don't know what the 220 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 3: tent is made of, but you can definitely see, like 221 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 3: you know, the plastic orders on the thing. Is it 222 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 3: just getting super super hot in there because it's hot outside. 223 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 3: Everybody inside is stressed out, working as hard as they can. 224 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: You got ovens going at two hundred degrees celsius. I 225 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 3: had to change my notes for this to update to 226 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: the correct temperature scale. But yeah, I have to imagine 227 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 3: it's not easy to be doing chocolate work. That seems 228 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 3: that'd be one of the toughest things you could be doing. 229 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 4: No, it's it's tough. So I'm from Edinburgh and Scotland, 230 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 4: which we don't get particularly hot summers. It was we 231 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 4: were filming down in the south of England, which for 232 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 4: me was like being the Caribbean. It was just like 233 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 4: absolutely roasting. So it was already I was already up 234 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 4: ten degrees or something. Still, probably nothing compared to you 235 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 4: guys in Atlanta, but it was it was hot for me. 236 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 4: And then in the tent when the ovens are on, 237 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 4: when there's like there's loads people in there because you've 238 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 4: obviously got the camera crew and the presenters, the tent 239 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 4: can rise sort of five or ten degrees celsius above 240 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 4: what it is outside. So you know, when you're working 241 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 4: with white chocolate that'll melt of like twenty five degrees 242 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: celsius and we were working sometimes into thirty eight thirty 243 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 4: nine degrees, So it was pretty pretty tough to do, 244 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 4: pretty tough to deal with. 245 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: Were there elements of the production that you other than 246 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: the temperature, I mean that affected your baking. I read 247 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: an article about the sound added of the of the show, 248 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: because of course I did. Basically it said that they 249 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: limited the level that you could put the mixer up, right, 250 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: because because of the sound. Is that something that actually happened, Like, 251 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: were you limited to how high you could put a mixer? 252 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: Or Another example is I read that they want to 253 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: get a shot of everything coming out of the oven, right, 254 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: So were there times where you were wanting to take 255 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: something out of the oven but you couldn't because you 256 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: had to get a camera person over there? Lickety split? 257 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 4: No, I mean the production team roll fantastic stick and 258 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 4: as a baker, you know that you're making a TV show, 259 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, if you need 260 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 4: to do something in your baking, they're happy for you. 261 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 4: To do that because they want you to do really 262 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 4: well and to make the bake the best that you can, 263 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 4: and so they would never like stop you from taking 264 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 4: something out of the oven. There is no limit on 265 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 4: mixers or anything. So you know, it's it's it's all 266 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 4: about the baking at the end of the day. It's 267 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 4: just that as a big you're aware that they have 268 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 4: to make a TV show, so you want to help 269 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 4: them out with that as much as you can. But 270 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 4: at the end of the day, you've got this time 271 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 4: to bake. You have to bake the best that you can, 272 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 4: and they support that all the way. 273 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:40,599 Speaker 3: I love it. 274 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: And how fast do they clean up? Because between between 275 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: like the baking and and some of the stations where 276 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: a goddamn disaster are not naming names, Laura, but how 277 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 1: did they get them clean so fast? 278 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: Because and was there a. 279 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: Time when you were were worried that your creation would 280 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: collapse because of the time that you were waiting between 281 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 1: cleanup and judging. 282 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 4: It is the most amazing feeling to have been baking 283 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 4: for like four and a half hours and have your 284 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 4: bench covered in icing, sugar and frosting and an all 285 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 4: manner of horrible stickiness. And then you just leave the 286 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 4: tent and then this amazing team of superheroes walks in. 287 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 4: They clean it up in like five ten minutes, the 288 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 4: whole of the tent, and it's absolutely phenomenal what they do. 289 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 4: We had I think it was the cub cake challenge 290 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 4: where we all had mirror glazes, and that was the 291 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 4: one where Laura's bench was quite quite messy that day 292 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 4: and a couple of the crew took a photo of 293 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 4: the bench because it was quite quite something. But they 294 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 4: come in and they just clear it all up like nothing. 295 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 4: Is amazing. 296 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: If people who haven't watched the show might not understand 297 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 3: before Maat I have every single week when y'all come back, 298 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: you've got a theme, a theme for the week, and 299 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 3: that's what your three different recipes are going to be, 300 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 3: your signature, your technical and then your show stopper. What 301 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: was the most intimidating week for you? 302 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 4: Most intimidating week for me was the quarter final That 303 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 4: was dessert week, So I very nearly went out of 304 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 4: the competition that week. It was not good for me 305 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 4: from the start, and it was one of those things 306 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 4: that the recipes that I had to do, we had 307 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 4: to make a jelly cake for the show stopper, which 308 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 4: I just didn't like the idea of it from the start. 309 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 4: So my recipe, who does It's jelly cake? 310 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: Who eats this stuff? 311 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 4: To be fair? Though, actually from that a challenge, it 312 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 4: was one of the best bakes from the whole series, 313 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 4: probably was I don't know if you remember ourmines jelly 314 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 4: cake with the poppy and it was absolutely phenomenal, But 315 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: I just didn't have that in me. Jelly I think 316 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 4: I'm going to stay away from for a while to 317 00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 4: put me off a bit. 318 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 3: What What were your the thoughts going through your head 319 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 3: when they said the theme this week Eighties week. I'm 320 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 3: not mistaken. You're born into two thousands. 321 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 4: Peter, Yeah, born in born in two thousand. But I 322 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 4: had so much that week was so much fun. That 323 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 4: week's probably the hottest that they had been in the tent, 324 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 4: so we all got a bit doo louly in the 325 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 4: in the heat. There was ice cream going on in 326 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 4: like stupid temperatures. We made we made were deep frying 327 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: doughnuts in stupid temperatures. And I don't know, Eighties food 328 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 4: is fun. Eighties food was was good, but I wasn't 329 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 4: particularly knowledgeable about it myself, but the challenges that they 330 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 4: put were great. 331 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 3: One of my favorite bakes you had the entire season. 332 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 3: It was pastry Week. You did Hegerie pasties. You said 333 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 3: they were haddock, but I know you're a No Dunk span, Peter. 334 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 3: Were these bass inspired pasties? 335 00:16:54,440 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 4: We yeah, they're uh yeah, totally. Yeah. You wouldn't be 336 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 4: catching pastry fish out out of any lakes, but maybe 337 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 4: they go a bit soggy. If they're there, there's catch. 338 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 3: Did you ever listen to No Dunks while you were practicing? 339 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 3: Were you able to draw inspiration from the classic podcast 340 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: to make these classic bakes? 341 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 4: I was, yeah, I was listening to I remember distinctly 342 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 4: listening to the pod in the bubble when you guys 343 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 4: were discussing the NBA bobl getting up and running and 344 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 4: like the concerns about if the bubble would be safe, 345 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 4: if it would work, and we were obviously in a 346 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 4: much smaller bubble than the NBA one, but I was 347 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 4: thinking to myself, Oh, no, it's it's working. We were 348 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 4: proving that this thing works, so don't worry about it. 349 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 4: It's all going to be absolutely fine. 350 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 3: I guess we should have had you on right away. 351 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:52,959 Speaker 3: That way we would have gotten the four one one. 352 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 3: Another thing I was always impressed with Peter. You did 353 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: a ton of gluten free baking. It almost seemed like 354 00:17:58,480 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 3: you were just trying to make things harder for your 355 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 3: to come up with something that looks incredible, tastes incredible, 356 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 3: and is also gluten free. I think you mentioned in 357 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: the first episode that your brother eats gluten free mostly, 358 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 3: so I assume it's partly an homage to your brother, 359 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: but that is that kind of where the inspiration for 360 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 3: all these gluten free bakes came from. 361 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, My brother's been gluten intolerant for ten twelve years, 362 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 4: so most of the time that I've been baking, So 363 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 4: it's just part of how I bake. And I think 364 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 4: a lot of things you can make gluten gluten free, 365 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 4: and you can adapt things for people with allergies and 366 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 4: intolerances that taste just as good as the real thing. 367 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 4: So I really liked that I got to share that 368 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 4: because it kind of it kind of shows that it 369 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 4: just stands up against the regular version of it, and 370 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 4: you can make some really great things even if you 371 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 4: have to amend them. 372 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 3: Sure, I saw I remember seeing on your Instagram that 373 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 3: you would kind of advertise, Yeah, these bakes that I'm 374 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 3: doing this week, these ones are the gluten free bakes, 375 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 3: So surely you're connecting with people out there. Do you 376 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 3: think it also would win you some bonus points that 377 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 3: you know, I'm surely the judges no hard it is 378 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 3: to make something taste delicious it's gluten free, so it's 379 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 3: got to be a little bit of a feather in 380 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 3: your cap. 381 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 4: I don't think. I think the judging has to be completely, 382 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 4: you know, blanket. If you're making it for an intolerance 383 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: when they've not asked for it, it's got to be 384 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 4: just as good a stack up against the things. So 385 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 4: I only did it for things that I knew would 386 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 4: come out really, really well. But the response from like 387 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,719 Speaker 4: the siliac community online and people that do have these 388 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 4: intolerances has been amazing. They really loved seeing it, so 389 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 4: that's been a nice thing to be able to share 390 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 4: with them. 391 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 3: Why I thought that was very cool. We mentioned earlier 392 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 3: that you're in Edinburgh right now, you're at university studying, 393 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 3: but obviously you're an NBA fan. What's the basketball scene 394 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 3: like over there for you? 395 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 4: The basketball our UNI has pretty good basketball team. They're 396 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 4: really good. The women's team are a very good one. Indeed, 397 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 4: it's obviously not quite the same, it doesn't not quite 398 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: the same as over in the States. But the NBA 399 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 4: is huge, is huge over here and it really you know, 400 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 4: makes it way into into culture and everyone knows about it. 401 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 4: Everyone chats about about the NBA from you know, the 402 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 4: massive online presence that it's got, So it really is 403 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 4: a big thing, even over in Scotland. 404 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 3: Very coold do you follow when you're following the league? 405 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 3: Are you more interested in the players? Are you more 406 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 3: interested in the teams? I imagine it's a little bit 407 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 3: different following it from afar rather than you know, like 408 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 3: I grew up a Bulls fan, so I'm always gonna 409 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 3: be excited about what the Bulls are doing, whereas if 410 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 3: you came to it a little bit later, perhaps you're 411 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 3: just picking up on the guys that you really enjoy watching. 412 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I we first got a TV package that 413 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 4: had NBA games on it when about six years ago, 414 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 4: So we'd record the games that were on at like 415 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 4: one am our time, and then we'd watch the next 416 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 4: morning faster, all the adverts and everything, And strangely, I 417 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 4: found myself in twenty fifteen in the playoffs, I became 418 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 4: a Clippers fan. And I became a Clippers fan in 419 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 4: the three to one series, the series against the Rockets 420 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 4: where we blew a three to one lead, and I 421 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 4: don't know why, but I just found myself backing them 422 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 4: all the way and really wanting them to win. So 423 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 4: I have stuck a Clippers fan, and I'm a Clippers 424 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 4: fan for life from that point and can't I can't 425 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 4: move away. So it's quite to It's quite nice to 426 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 4: have a team that you can go and support because 427 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 4: it's harder to just watch all of the basketball. 428 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 3: And so going about the Clippers this year, I got 429 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 3: to say it, Peter. They blew another three to one 430 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 3: lead last year. It's tough when you start watching basketball 431 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 3: and in the first six seven years of it, your 432 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 3: team blows a three one lead twice. Tough one. 433 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, and my flatmate Fraser is also a basketball fan. 434 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 4: He doesn't have a specific team, but he decided to 435 00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 4: support the Nuggets this season for the playoffs. So we 436 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 4: were three one up. I was talking some big talk, 437 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 4: going absolutely no way that we can lose it, and yeah, 438 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 4: I was crushed. It was horrible, but hopefully hopefully this season, 439 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 4: I think we need to get the mindset back from 440 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 4: the year before. It was a bit more grit and 441 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:23,719 Speaker 4: grind every game counted, and then last year I think 442 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 4: it was a bit more complacent. So hopefully get the 443 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 4: mindset back with the top, top, top notch talent on 444 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 4: top of that, and it'll be a good season. Hopefully. 445 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna they're gonna look pretty good this year, 446 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 3: and we'll get to see him right away. Clippers Lakers 447 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 3: coming this week should be fun. Christmas Day another huge 448 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 3: day on the NBA schedule. We got just a week 449 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 3: until Christmas. Also a huge day obviously for baking. Peter, 450 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 3: what are you gonna be making for Christmas? 451 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 4: I am going to be making a version of the 452 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 4: ice cream Christmas cake that I made in the tent. Nice, 453 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 4: So that's going to be on the table for Christmas pudding. 454 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 4: Very excited for it. 455 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it looked awesome on the show. Probably gonna be 456 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 3: awesome at your house. I'm not good at baking. I 457 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 3: don't have the eye for detail for it, Peter, But 458 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 3: what about what's something that like a novice baker such 459 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 3: as myself? Skeets JD. Whoever it is, what should we 460 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 3: make for Christmas? I'm thinking cinnamon rolls. 461 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 4: Oh, cinnamon rolls are good. And actually, if you can 462 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 4: make cinnamon rules, that's quite technical, that's quite challenging. You 463 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 4: can make a ton of other stuff you can make 464 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 4: cinnamon rules. You can make stolin that's the German kind 465 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 4: of breadcake thing that's amazing and sort of like quite 466 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 4: a similar technique to cinnamon roles. So I think you 467 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: could lean into that a recommendation. I don't know how 468 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 4: big like Christmas fruitcakes are in the States, but if 469 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 4: you can get yourselfing, get your hands on a fruitcake 470 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 4: at Christmas Cake, get a tub of vanilla ice cream, mix, 471 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 4: mix the Christmas cake through, and then you've made yourself 472 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 4: Christmas cake ice cream and it is the best thing 473 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 4: in the world, so easy and it is the best thing. 474 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 4: So that is my recommend for Christmas Day. And you 475 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 4: don't even have to make anything really. 476 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 3: Just mix it up. 477 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 4: Just mix it up. 478 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 3: Sounds easy enough. We made tass eat a full fruit 479 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 3: cake in thirty minutes once upon a time. I don't 480 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 3: think I'll go that route. I think the mixing with 481 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: ice cream seems like a better idea. 482 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't need to eat a full cake. 483 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 3: What would y'all do with all of the cakes when 484 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: they're done? So, you know, you start off with a 485 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 3: bunch of a bunch of bakers in the first the 486 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 3: first round, even in the final one, you're making three cakes. 487 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 3: That's a lot of cake to go around. What's going 488 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,479 Speaker 3: on with all those pieces? They look delicious? How are 489 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 3: Paul and Perue taking one bite and then calling a day? 490 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: No way? 491 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 4: I ate so much cake over the summer. I just 492 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 4: ate you so much. So they'd slice it up after 493 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 4: and they'd bring a tray to all the bakers that 494 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 4: we could try each other's baking. And then there was 495 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 4: like one hundred and I want to say, like one 496 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty hundred and thirty people in the bubble, 497 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 4: so plenty of mouths to feed. So most of the 498 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 4: baking was was eaten and enjoyed. It was good stuff. 499 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: So, Peter, I follow you on Instagram and I've seen 500 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: you smash badminton opponents into the ground, Like, yeah, just 501 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 1: you're in a very intense competitor. You were very intense 502 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: on on bake Off, and you know we talked about 503 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: earlier how it was like summer camp and baking camp 504 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: and all that. But you were pretty laser focused, and 505 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: I think you wanted to win this thing. Who was 506 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: your biggest competition in the tent for the whole season, 507 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 1: not just right up till the end there? 508 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 4: Who my biggest competition? I always wanted to get right 509 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 4: the way through and I'm a pretty competitive guy, which 510 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 4: comes through in sports and as it turns out, in 511 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 4: baking as well. But generally it was it didn't feel 512 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 4: like a competition until quite far down the line. 513 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 2: Okay, so. 514 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 4: It's hard to you were just you weren't thinking about 515 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 4: like who was going to be there to beat you. 516 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 4: You were just focused on what you were making. So 517 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 4: I'm going to skirt around that question. 518 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 3: That's fair. Before I let you go, Peter got to 519 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 3: play a little game besides the contestants. We've mentioned him 520 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 3: a couple of times. There's a Big four on the 521 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 3: Great British Bake offf you got judges Paul Hollywood and 522 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 3: Prove Leaf, the host, Norl Fielding and this year Matt Lucas. 523 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you one of the Big four, and 524 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 3: I want you to give me an NBA player comparison 525 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 3: for each of them. We're going to start with mister 526 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 3: handshake himself, Paul Hollywood. 527 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 4: Paul, I've I've brainstormed this with my brother to make 528 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 4: sure that we get these spots on because we need 529 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 4: to do a good job here, Paul. We've gone for 530 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 4: Chris Paul, so he knows the game inside out. You know, 531 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 4: he's exceptionally experienced and well respected, but also you know, 532 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 4: if something's not right, he's going to let you know 533 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 4: it's not right, and he's gonna he's going to tell you. 534 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 3: Chris Paul Hollywood, I love it. What's it like to 535 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 3: get a handshake from him? 536 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 4: I was a handshake is It shouldn't be such a 537 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 4: big deal, but I was just on the floor with 538 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 4: I was so giddy, couldn't couldn't stop smiling. 539 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. 540 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 3: I think you mentioned that star Baker on your Bakeoff 541 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 3: bucket list. I assume a handshake is as well. Was 542 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 3: there anything else that was on your bucket list that 543 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 3: you checked. 544 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 4: Off and winning? Yeah, I think that's it. Bakhoff completed it. 545 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 4: Not bad, not bad. 546 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 3: I'll how you cross him off the list, all right, Peter. 547 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 3: Next one, Prue, who's an NBA comparison. 548 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 4: For preu Lea Prue, So we've gone, we've got we've 549 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 4: got an option here, Dwayne Wade or Serge of Bacca 550 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 4: because she's very fashionable, she's got quite a calm demeanor, 551 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 4: and she's incredibly kind. So you think those two fit 552 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 4: really well. 553 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 3: I think that's pretty seems accurate to me. I really 554 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: like those comparisons. Let's uh, let's move on to the 555 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 3: host of the show. 556 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: Prue's glasses very very similar to Surge's scarves, right, I 557 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: mean they're always on point, always make a statement. Peter, 558 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: you nailed it. 559 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 2: You nailed it. 560 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: We like to see it. Oh yeah, no doubt about it. 561 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 3: Moving on to the hosts. Who's in NBA comparison for 562 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 3: Matt Lucas new to the show this season, Matt. 563 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 4: So we've also got two here. We're hedging our bets 564 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 4: a bit. We've got Jamaran and Tyler Hero. So there, 565 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 4: they're new guys, but they fit straight into the team 566 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 4: and they're performing at an elite level. I think Matt 567 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 4: has performed at an elite level this season. And also 568 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 4: I think that they seem like really good locker room guys. 569 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 4: Keep the moon nice and light, have fun, and that's 570 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 4: what Matt did all the way through. 571 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 3: All right, final one. Almost the reason I started watching 572 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 3: bake Off was when it came to Netflix and I 573 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 3: saw that Noel, one of the stars of The Mighty Boosh, 574 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 3: had joined the show. You talk about big fits, this 575 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: guy's looks are incredible. I mean the NBA comparison for 576 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 3: in NOL. 577 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 4: That's that's true. We didn't we didn't really go in 578 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 4: the fashion line for this one. We've we've picked Steven 579 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 4: Adams for him. Yeah, they've got the flowing locks, quite 580 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 4: eccentric guys fan favorites of course. And Noel is really 581 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 4: he's really good at sports. He's really athletics and I 582 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 4: feel Steven Adams he could he could do any sport 583 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 4: to an elite level. So yeah, Steven Adams and Noel, 584 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 4: that's that's what we've chosen. I like it. 585 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 3: The big, hulking presence too. I don't think I would 586 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 3: have guessed Steven Adams, but that's a crazy comparison. I 587 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: love it. 588 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 4: Peter, that's been good fun to think that we spent 589 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 4: far too long thinking thinking about this, going through potential players. 590 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 3: What's a what's it like interacting with Matt and Noel, 591 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 3: are they It's got to be a little bit of 592 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 3: a tough one for you, where you're like, I'm trying 593 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 3: to focus on making sure I'm doing the absolute best 594 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 3: I can, but like you're saying, I'm making a TV 595 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 3: show here too. 596 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 4: They always made it fun. I think sometimes it was 597 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 4: just completely random and you just had no idea what 598 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 4: was going on, but it was always good fun when 599 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 4: they came around, and you know, when the cameras are off. 600 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 4: They'd also know exactly the right time if you needed 601 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 4: just that little bit of support. They could speak to 602 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 4: everyone in the right way, so they kind of it 603 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 4: can get a bit tense in the tent, and they 604 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 4: you know, kept everyone grounded, kept them under control and calm, 605 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 4: knew when people needed a laugh, you when people needed 606 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 4: a bit of space. So they're just absolute professionals and 607 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 4: pros at what they were doing, and they made the 608 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 4: tent such a fun place to be. 609 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 3: I definitely seem like that. Did you have any any 610 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 3: bakes during the season that you thought were underrated. 611 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: By the judges, underrated bigs? What did I think? I 612 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 4: had some steamed buns in Japanese Week that I really loved, 613 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 4: but I think I technically mess them up a little bit, 614 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 4: so comments were probably fair, but I really loved those 615 00:30:58,280 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 4: a lot. They were good, tasty. 616 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 3: I think that's the week where you're the baking is 617 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 3: a little bit different, right, because you also have to 618 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 3: cook the fillings. You have to actually be making your fillings. 619 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 3: Is that something I mean, obviously you're comfortable doing it, 620 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 3: you're the champ man, but is that something that you 621 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 3: dread a little when you're coming into the season, thinking, 622 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: all right, this is a little bit different. This isn't 623 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 3: just straight up baking. No. 624 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 4: I like cooking as well, and it's quite nice to 625 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 4: do some savory stuff because when you bake, you're normally 626 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 4: on cakes and biscuits. And for all the crew love 627 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 4: it when it's a savory bake because people get I mean, 628 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 4: I'll never get fed up of cake, but some people 629 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 4: get a bit fed up and tired of all the 630 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 4: sweet stuff. So something nice and savory coming in everyone 631 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 4: likes a bit of a break from it. 632 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 3: Well, Peter, thanks so much for taking the time to 633 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 3: talk with us today.
