Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Terry's shortbread featured oatmeal and crystallized ginger, topped with chocolate decorations.
Judging
Paul Hollywood (looking at Terry's largely undecorated biscuits): "Right, this is interesting. I don't like the color. I don't like the look of them at all. They are not neat enough for me."
Prue Leith: " They are a little bit hard, but the flavour is great. It's just that the execution is a bit of a mess."
Paul Hollywood: "It's a rough old biscuit, this one."

About The Great British Baking Show ™
The Great British Bake Off ™ (often abbreviated to Bake Off or GBBO and referred to in the United States as The Great British Baking Show ™) is a streamed British baking competition, in which a group of amateur bakers compete against each other in a series of rounds, hoping to impress the judges with their baking skills. One contestant in The Great British Baking Show ™ is eliminated in each round, and the winner is selected from the three contestants who reach the final.
The Great British Baking Show ™ operates on a weekly elimination process to find the best all-around baker from the contestants, who are all amateurs. In each episode, the bakers are given three challenges based on that week's theme: a signature bake, a technical challenge, and a show-stopper. The bakes are assessed by the judges who then choose a "Star Baker" for the week, and a contestant is also eliminated. In the final round, three bakers are left and a winner is chosen from the three.
