4/10
It is OK

I sometimes watch The Taste when there is nothing else good on TV and i do think it is an alright show, i think there are worse, but it is FAR from the best also. I would prefer if there were new judges, i don't mind the one with the silver/grey hair but the other two i am not so keen on, i guess i could put up with Nigella even though i am not a fan of hers.

I think sometimes, well most of the time though they do go very overboard when the cook does the slightest thing wrong, it's a cooking show, not a matter of life and death *rolls eyes*. I think Ludo (i think that's his name, never heard of him before this show) needs to have some respect for other people, he is rude and always shouts at the people cooking for doing what they feel is best and not listening to him all the time. I thought this was a cooking comp, i would have thought the cooks had to do what they thought is right to show off what they can do etc but no it seems to be more about the "professionals".

Ludo is meant to be a "professional" yet even he gets it wrong... for example... a few eps back the cooks cooked something and she said "ok, i've done", Ludo told her to put icing sugar on, she said "but it will be too sweet", Ludo shouted at her and told her to put icing sugar on.... she then failed when the "higher professional" came to taste the food as he said it was too sweet. Ludo needs to go and be replaced with someone who has respect and knows what should be and what shouldn't.

4 out of 10 from me, probably would be more if they got a better judge to join Nigella and that other guy.
