      SO who would you have replaced to keep him in? All 3 finalist had stepped up their game and delivered some exquisite bakes. Jurgen started downhill after German week. Just because someone wins Star Baker 3 times doesn't mean they're the best. It takes some people a while to really get into it and gain some confidence to show just how good they are.

      Claudia you are absolutely correct. Jurgen got robbed. Paul was too concerned about how pretty the girl was. Two shows back she needed to go but he protected her above Lizzy claiming that "we have to take into consideration all of the shows to decide who needs to move forward.

    Used to watch the Great British Baking Show with my family, including the specials. It wasn't that Jürgen was eliminated, it was how he was treated. I have come to expect that from Paul, but Prue joined in too. Didn't watch the final, haven't watched anything since. One of the appeals of the show was how nicely everyone treated each other - then Paul felt threatened and that was the end of that. Everything about Jürgen was a class act! Everything about Paul is petty.

  • @mm-yt8sf
    @mm-yt8sf 2 года назад +14

    a very minor technicality but the narrator says that people thought the show was fixed "but" he was actually relieved. the two are not mutually exclusive. most often something is fixed and the person who loses is unhappy about it, but even if it is what is desired and even done with consent that doesn't make something not-fixed. though... it is nice he wasn't too bothered by the outcome, whatever the origin of it was. (i'm not taking a position on whether i think it was fixed or not, i have no idea, just thought the concepts might have been a little muddled) [though..i guess but doesn't necessarily have to imply that it wasn't fixed..it could be more like an "although" :-)]

      @bootsieglendinning2775 Год назад +1

      I couldn't agree more. The episode where Crystelle clearly deserved to be sent home, Paul kept her above Lizzie claiming that they had to judge collectively based on all of the shows. Then when it came down to picking the 3 finalists it was based on one day? He also robbed Jurgen of a handshake that day, as clearly stated by Pru.

      Yep. He set a high standard for himself and they used that to judge him. He became stagnant at some point while the others progressed in their baking and the judges clearly stated that in their decision. For me the right person won. Remember when food fell on the ground and he served it to the judges? If we are to look at certain mistakes he sure had his own too because in that episode people also said it was wrong that they evicted someone else when he served food that fell to the ground.

    I just watched this series on binge and I had to find somewhere to vent my disbelief on Jurgen being eliminated. Very disappointed that Paul set this up by giving 3 contestants hand shakes and leaving Jurgen out. He barely tasted Chig’s and gave him a handshake. Whoever decided to get rid of Jurgen it was definitely set up. If it was Paul power tripping or the exec’s choice they deliberately predetermined that Jurgen shouldn’t win the bake off! So ridiculously unfair and biased. Very disappointed with Paul. Always liked his straightforward precise blunt comments but did he want Giuseppe to win so badly that he got rid of Jurgen for him? Was it the focaccia recipe he desperately wanted from him? Some deal on the side that only Paul was privy to? Do they bet in Britain on great British bake off winners or eliminations? Did Paul have a bet on with someone that he could eliminate Jurgen so Giuseppe would win?? Jurgen was the true winner of that series and yes everyone else in the semifinals were outstanding. But Jurgen was the best of the best. At least the show allowed us to see his talent and his quiet confidence as he made his amazing creations.

    Pathetic... every time someone's favorite doesn't get picked it must be a fix. It's true that Jurgen started out strong and did well during German week but he started slipping as the contest went on. You have to stay consistent if you want to win. And fans are going to have to accept that just because they think someone should win doesn't mean they deserved it. The other 3 bakers that made it to the finals were excellent bakers as well and equally as deserving. Frankly, I thought the woman should have won... she did a superb job and even got several Hollywood handshakes for her presentations. But I'm not over here whining that she didn't win or that the show was fixed. Jurgen will land on his feet. There will be other opportunities for him as a result of being on the show.

    He was an excellent baker, but he should have been eliminated weeks before. It was the episode where they were making vegan sausage rolls. His pan of rolls went all over the floor. He proceeded to feed them to the judges. That was sickening. Over the years, when food has gone on the floor, the bakers tossed it ..even though it meant not having everything they were instructed to prepare. If that happened in a restaurant, the Health Department would shut them down. They judges had been mortified when (in a different episode) someone used their hand to scoop off icing, I can’t imagine what they would have thought about basically eating their food off of the floor!
