I'm quite surprised about Matt being so wooden, he's usually very natural on his other programmes so he's not coming across great and is barely saying anything! But maybe it's more difficult as it's scripted. Glad Gregg is gone but it definitely feels a bit more serious this series. I'm not a fan of how the skills test has now become "make this random niche recipe I've given you without any instructions" - just give them a classic! Was painful having Philly back...

I’d forgotten how annoying she was. Clearly on it to try and get herself a TV show.

Matt seems a bit of a non-entity so far, he is a chef by background but that seems to be downplayed, why is he just called ‘Judge Matt’ when the others are called Chefs? Perhaps he no longer cooks professionally, but Marcus doesn’t have a restaurant any longer either.

I don't mind Matt. I'm just grateful that Gregg has left. I'm in 2 minds about the returning contestants setting the skills test.

I liked the first one (the Scottish fella) bit didnt enjoy last week's - just found her annoying! Haven't seen this week's as had to work so will reserve judgement

Loved the Scottish guy and with you all on Philly, very annoying. The woman that's on this week is great though.

I don't mind Matts presence, he's nice enough and non offensive but just doesn't bring a lot to the show.

Watched the first episode last night. I like that they're bringing back previous winners for the skills test. The kitchen, now in Birmingham, is also looking pretty snazzy. Very glad Greggggg has gone. Matt is doing alright, at least he's not trying to steal the show and isn't stood around gurning a la Wallace.

I mean the bar was in hell with Greggggg as a comparator though! I think he needs to find his own style on this, which will take time.

Giuseppe works so fast it literally looks like the film has been sped up 😂

Who won when it was Matthew's year?

agree with the matt comments. He is just there for the free food .

I liked bringing back previous winners to set the skills test - some odd choices though ( philly for one).

Caroline and Gareth are the standouts for me so far .

Yeah I wasn't keen on Philly or the man that was on this week. Very good looking and confident but monotonous voice

I enjoyed that he did more classic dishes than just random recipes that the contestants would have no reason to know, but yes he wasn't super outgoing. He was similarly quite cool on his series, but is still quite gorgeous 🤣

Wow 😲
Apparently he's not done anything wrong and the viewers like him - but they think three is too many and they're just going with Monica and Marcus.

I really like Matt but there was just no room for him on Professionals. He’d have been better off on the Celebrity version where he could have the same kind of banter he has with the guests on Saturday Kitchen
