Anyone else find Patrick really annoying? I can’t even work out what it is but he pisses me off without doing anything 😂 also, for a tailor, his trousers never look like they fit right. He dresses so strangely for someone who’s not even 50
I can't see past his hotness 😂

I got something of a "I always said you were wasting your time with this sewing lark and 30s dressing when you should be out there being an even better doctor and finding a husband, but you've proved me wrong" vibe off the astonished mother, anyone else? :ROFLMAO:

I wish I looked as sharp and sophisticated as Patrick anyway.

I liked Esme's casual "yea I've been to Carnival actually. I sat on a windowsill at Notting Hill with David Bowie." just dropped in there. I knew she has had a distinguished career in fashion but just name dropping someone like Bowie takes it to another level. Girl's clearly been mixing with the right people in her younger days!

Oh

Oh really, Clare wasn’t my favourite at all but I actually teared up at the end when her mum said I want to tell her she’s beautiful and clever but she doesn’t let me. Thought it was really touching.
Me too!

Although my favourite moment was when her mum said she'd told the cat that Clare was in the final and the cat didn't care 😂😂😂

I thought that Clare deserved to win and has all the qualities I would want if God forbid, I needed a lung specialist. I also think that the clips of her mother went a long way to understanding her personality.

I still don’t like Claire there’s something off about her I don’t particularly like her attitude. She comes across as the school goody goody who’s secretly happy when other people mess up 😂
For pure consistency alone I think Nicole deserves to win.

I love this show! Really like Nicole and


Oh my god I was just about to write the same I don’t like her at all. She has no sense of humour like the others. I thought it was really off of her to copy Nicole’s fabric. Like fair dos if two people genuinely picked the same but she purposely picked it because Nicole has good taste for patterns?? I sensed Nicole was a bit pissed off and rightly so.
I find the girl with the short hair annoying too sorry I forget her name.
Yes yes yes! She seems completely without humour and appears really pissed off if she doesn't get top spot or receives any criticism. I think Nicole took the fabric copying very well, I bet if the situation had been reversed Claire wouldn't have been so gracious!

The northern lady bugged me a bit (can't remember her name sorry) just because she kept making references to being a northerner! Nothing against northerners (my OH is one) but she mentioned it all the time - WHY?!!

Oh
I just think her mother seemed quite cold and reminded me of my own mother in some respects, only perfect is good enough.

Just watched the final and that was a close thing, but over all Clare deserved it most. She was consistently a good sewer , made less huge mistakes and though she may not be the most imaginative she always produced something decent in the recycle tasks and her sci-fi one was outstanding. Her final dress was stunning in it's simplicity (yet it was incredibly complicated to piece together)and because it looked like something a 50's starlet would wear on the red carpet it was very in keeping with Clare's very niche look and I loved that she stayed true to that when given the choice.
Matt was really good and keen but tended to let panic get the better of him and push him into making errors. His final gown modeled by his partner was bloody amazing. :mClearly his best project but just a little bit too late to push him to the win.
Nicole I just never got. She was always drawn to glitter and shine and lurex and never seemed to marry the fabric to the project correctly, which is essential in dress making. Nice lady and certainly talented but had definite limits re her fabric knowledge. Also she had a tendency to not stick to the demands of esme and patrick. Her carnival remake was fab though ... very Rio/Notting Hill.
Clare's mum was adorable. So so proud of her talented daughter. Her astonished face looked like she was thinking "Oh my God, I can't believe I produced this talented wonderful daughter". Yes Clare is very buttoned up but doctors tend to adopt that attitude to distance themselves from people outside of family and friends. Bless her, working her nuts off for us all on the front line.:love:🌈
I'm delighted Matt is doing theatre costumes, that job was made for his talents and I hope Nicole all the others are happy with their experience on the show.

Wrong winner by far Nicole should of! Like usual miss prissy think she’s better than everyone didn’t react surprised it was like yea I know thanks
Wow. Would you like some cheese with your whine?

Absolutely correct winner and absolutely was surprised. Not everyone has hysterics and flaps around like a headless chicken at positive news.
Good luck to her, and them all, even your Nicole.

Matts final dress was awesome. Nicole has always been my favourite as she takes risk. Clare is boring. Technically a good seamstress but just boring

I find the time limits frustrating for the contestants. I know there needs to be a limit for filming purposes, but for 3 out of 4 contestants to not finish the Marilyn dresses this week just shows the time scale wasn't enough

Yes that was great news - I really liked his vibe.

Claire being in the frontline made me a bit teary.

I really like Nicole. I have no clue how to sew like this. I think that's why I find the show so fascinating

Nah not for me. She might be precise but she has zero creativity or flare. Her outfits were so dull throughout. The red dress was terrible ?????

Loved Matts it was stunning. Still think Nicole deserved to win. For me she was the most consistent and creative.

Ah that's interesting as to me her mother came across as very proud and loving, almost a bit ditzy.
Same! She seemed to think the sky was the limit with whatever Clare dedicated herself to and said at the end Clare didn't like her telling her she was beautiful and she loved her but she is. It just seems to be Clare's personality to keep emotions to herself, she always looked a little shocked when someone in the team hugged her. I guess it could be to do with being a doctor that's she's used to this too.
