I loved Farie's black and white dress and felt that she should have won but probably they wanted to give someone else a chance :p I think its between her and Rafe and both would be worthy winners. Serena will come third, great sewer and some of her designs have been gorgeous but the other two are just that bit better imho.
 
I thought Raph’s dress was technically stunning. The whole lot of them were v 90s Per Una but what can you do within that brief.

Serena seems very into one side one colour, the other another (she did it with the baker boy cap) - which seems if you call it colour blocking will impress, I think it’s proper naff.

Damian makes me laugh. He reminds me of that Yorkshire actor in Ashes to Ashes who is a bit un PC. I have not heard Damian say anything un PC, but he doesn’t fit the usual sewing male demographic, he looks like a pie and a pint man and a speaks as he finds sort of guy.

It's refreshing when they recruit off piste, instead of the standard line up every year (Bake Off is much the same with the same cast every year). I liked that Steam Punk guy early on in Sewing Bee, again totally different to what you'd expect.

Yes I'm definitely warming to Damien. I find Serena and Rebecca totally unmemorable and dull. I like the flair of Raph - the orange trim in the transformation challenge completely lifted his outfit in a way no one else came near.

Ooh I’m the opposite! I still just can’t warm to Damien but I actually really like Rebecca and don’t mind Serena. I think maybe they’re just a bit more shy. I do really love Farie but I’m originally from Dunstable area where she is from 🤣

Not a fan of Damien. Too cocky. That type gets on my nerves.

I don't see that at all. He knows he's not the best and I find him quite self deprecating, its almost like he can't believe he's still there and is just enjoying the experience.

I don't really have a favourite at the moment. I think this week's show was tough but they were all impressive.

Patrick, Esme and Joe make this show brilliant. They're all so good at what they do and so watchable on this.

I love the jokes Joe makes about Patrick and Esme.
 
I love sewing bee, discovered it last year and was sucha surprised.

Damien is a tricky one, I love how he doesn't fit the stereotype and I don't think he is cocky at all. He is clearly out of his depth when he can't plan and practice. Practically every week the first two challenges are weak and he pulls it out the bag in the final challenge.

I'm.not usually a fan of the camp style of host but Joe gets the balance just right without being annoying or taking over, to me he is Julian Clareys natural successor.
