masterchef 1990 clip 

Who just watched the Vic and Bob Maarsterchef video?

I loved watching this with my late mum and nan growing up in the 90s such happy memories

It's a shoe, it's a cake, it's a cakey shoe cake!

Used to love watching this show when I was younger. Brings back memories.

"How are you going to assemble your tartlet?" "Uhm, with gusto!" Lovely!

I only used to watch it for the terrific music at 16. 20 .

The days when complicated French inspired menus were the standard. But I must say I absolutely Lloyd Grossman’s interviews, talking to real chefs (and not just wannabe Food stars), talking about food in such an engaging manner. You can see that Lloyd is genuinely interested. No need for snarky or sarcastic remarks

This bring so many memories

The final candidate using Eternal Beau crockery! My mum had the full set for special occasions!

This feels more like a talk show rather than a competition 😅

I remember watching this on TV

awww reminds me a fun Sunday evenings with the family. Good days

They took such a simple programme and made it bigger and faster and brighter and louder and much more lavish. I wonder where it's going to go next?

I miss relaxing TV with good light music and people being nice and talking without dramatic music to cover... Long ... Pauses

Nice to see proper portions!

To be honest, the dishes look absolutely hideous and unappetizing. And those plate designs aren't helping. We have really come so far in the culinary world from those days.

great to see an early edition , shame the end and start was missing.

“I’m just gonna stand really close and poke your food. That ok?”

Raspberry couleeeeeeee

It’s came a long long way…

Who lives in a house like this

2:17 If you ask ANY chef in Britain who the best chef is, they ALWAYS name Pierre Koffmann. Easy on the hyperbole Loyd, Jesus.

Far better then than it is now, it’s became a big bore to me!

1996, not 1990....

The food looks grim - congealed and colourless - and those hideous plates!

This original MasterChef was snobbish. The presentation was so naff and stuffy. The judges come across as ponderous when eating.

Now everyone in Britain is lucky if they get a tin of beans from the foodbank.
