LIAM BAKES
C4, 8pm TV CheffiNG goes urban with this latest offering starring liam from Bake Off, aka liam Charles, a firm favourite from last year’s series.
he only baked his first cake six years ago – he’s just 20 – and now he’s got his own series to showcase his taste for creative and crazy flavour combos.
filmed striding down an inner city london street, graffiti on the walls, with rap music our soundtrack, this is clearly aiming at a slightly different audience from the likes of Mary Berry or Nigella’s shows.
his kitchen studio is more east london flat with chalkboard and good transport links rather than, say, luxurious country house with roaring fire and several dogs.
his mates text about a party and liam replies: “yeah bruv, bringing a treat.”
his bakes are “the badder the better” and he rates his fizzy cola eclairs as “banging”. This is hip-hop meets mascarpone and piping bags – but then we always knew cooking was cool… Liam loves crazy flavour combos PEOPLE JUST DO NOTHING
BBC2, 10pm THE BAFTA-winning BBC mockumentary returns for a fifth series of misery and bad behaviour in west London suburbia.
When we last saw the Kurupt FM crew, there was a brief wedding ceremony for Grindah and Miche, with the reception turning into a daytime rave. But then Steve returned to the radio station to find that it had been raided by police – and he was then arrested for drug possession.
Joining the newlyweds now, Miche (Lily Brazier) says married life is a “fairytale”, while Grindah (Allan Mustafa) disagrees. According to him, he’s had a “rough year”.
Meanwhile, DJ Beats (Hugo Chegwin) has his own problems after having a baby. “Yeah, she was a massive mistake. Am I going to get a vasectomy? Yes, I am.”
Elsewhere, Chabuddy G (Asim Chaudhry) appears to be having a bit more luck with new girlfriend Carol – Miche’s mum.
In this episode, the boys resort to desperate measures to stay on the air and Miche gets some bad news.
