There are sometimes some really wonderful things on the telly late at night, aren't there? Better than the rubbish that's on during the day. I'm sitting up with a teething baby and watching "A Matter of Life and Death" on Film 4. Achingly beautiful, silly and romantic, and terribly British.

Final of the Great British Bake Off tonight, the Guardian and Independent both have articles about it today. I'm struggling to know who I want to win out of Mary-Anne or Janet.

Mary-Anne! Mary-Anne! Also, holy hell, last weeks' episode got 4 million viewers. That's a heck of a lot of people watching Jos' croquembouche collapse in on itself. It is a lovely, gentle, good-natured little jewel of a programme though, and I hope the BBC understands that and keeps the same format for next year. Ramping up the competition aspect of it would wreck it.

Chiming in to say I finally got a pointless answer on Pointless. Of course it was on the nerdiest thing ever: the Nibblonians being an alien race from Futurama. Was really chuffed with myself though. Oh Richard, tell me more

So how are ITV going to nick it and make it worse? I reckon it'll be X factor style

Although this years was improved when they replaced the cricketer they had hosting it (whyyy have someone who doesn't know about food and can't present presenting?) with Mary Nightingale (who knows a bit about food and a lot about presenting).

I used to have a real love/hate relationship with Countdown. I like the games, but I absolutely hated Whiteley and Vorderman. Are the current hosts (massively) less twattish ?

Mary Anne is the Cake Terminator, the grim look of determination she always has is not human.

When Mary-Annes' decorating icing fell onto her cake-thing I heard my neighbours scream in anguish. This programme is torture. Glorious, sugary torture for the nation.

Okay, I've cracked and have started shouting "Anyone but Holly! Anyone but Holly" at the screen. ^And while I saw the balls on Mr Squirrel I am more appalled by the eyeshadow Sue Perkins is wearing. The woman has applied it with a trowel.
