Drink 1 finger every time Mary eats using just the side of her mouth…
Wow! I love this. I might have to have some sort of #GBBO party for the final and do this! It would definately have to be BYOB (bring your own baked-goods!)
Also, well done on another impressive week! X
You wouldn’t have enough time to refill!
I’m watching right now – intentional double entendre by Sue, odd facial expressions, Mary’s disapproving glance…..
I eat my words – this is hilarious
perfect for pre saturday night drinking for those addictedc to bake off
Althought we think you should add ‘every time a sped-up clip of something proving/baking is showed’ to 2 fingers
I can’t believe I’ve only just found this (and your Twitter feed), in Week Five!
A cojuple of additions:
3 fingers every time Paul looks sheepish and says apologetically “I don’t like it”
1 finger every cutaway shot to rain coming down the other side of the marquee windows
Well done James, keep it up, you have my vote!

Love love love it! Think I need to organise a GBBO viewing / drinking party so that I can participate without feeling slightly like an alcoholic drinking on my own in front of the TV…
Will definitely be spreading this around the 6th form tomorrow morning. I have friends who love Bake Off, and I have a feeling this may be a hit…
This is excellent. The amount of times Mr Hollywood declares something under or over baked should see me on the floor by 8:03
Can’t even express how much I love this. If the show wasn’t on a weekday night, I’d so try it. Somehow I don’t think turning up at sixth form with a hangover would do me any good..
Please can we revise the rules for the final? I feel like there could be some drinking we’re missing out on…

Double entendres in the final are already (15 mins in) at liver explosion levels
I’m not sure if it is a very good thing or a very bad thing I’m in Los Angeles at the moment. If I had kept up with this in England where I can actually legally procure alcohol, and drunk the whole lot I might have had to have got my stomach pumped…
