I really liked how supportive the chefs were of each other. I hope they all found great places to work.

I think it’s important to note that all three chefs are adorable!

[kristic]

this is the best trio of all so far!! especially his shock that HE was the one chosen!!

[maryporter]

Sam the owner was very kind, honest and fair . I loved that she chose Martin and gave him a chance I think he would be willing to work with the owner not just for his own benefit

What a lovely supportive group of 3 really great chefs. They were all so positive and happy in there work. I did work as a chef and a lot of them were so grumpy lol this 3 are lovely . Thank you Alex

Love this show but I get so invested in the people who are competing for the job that I am as nervous as they are during their interviews. All display such talent and ingenuity in their cooking. If only I didn't live "across the pond, " I'd come sample the seafood and enjoy the salt spray, Please continue to share this program with us Americans. It's a treat.

like how she gets offended about being called love than calls one of the chefs darling as if that is not equally condescending

[nicholascrow]

Love the dynamic of the chefs having known each other previously

[fionadimio]

Alex you comment about the one chef calling the owner "love" that you feel is inappropriate however what about you calling the chef "darling" Respect works both ways

[Ryoufriggingserious]

Seafood and cooking shows. Two of my favorite things.

[fuglbird]

This series is so much better than the other cooking series I've watched.

Alex "Don't Call Me Love!"

Also Alex "OK Darling. Fantastic Darling"

😂

Martin’s surprise at the end of this brought me to tears! I loved all of these chefs for all different reasons! Lovely episode!

[rosyp]

The thing is..some names of endearment are just geographical. I'm from Yorkshire and being called "love" is a very common and accepted thing

[gratti]

Yes!! Another Chef For Hire series!! Thank you🙂

[janetrossiter]

I love these series, I didn't see them first time around so thank you😊

[sararichardson]

Love this show. It would be wonderful if the recipes were posted to supplement the visual feat/feast

[SmallWonda]

Very interesting - but honestly, to get so bent out of shape being called Luv, in a very relaxed way - it is Cornwall after all, my luvver! But, I think Sam made the right call in this round - nice to see all the chefs getting along.

[lee-qzbd]

Wonderful choice to move forward. Best of luck to him

[roseogrady]

The Right Man for the Job. Best of Luck to All.
