I would love them to do this in reverse where the normals are controlling the chefs, but the chefs can't talk unless spoken to. Meaning if the voice their opion of a normals decision they have to do a penalty. Something like jumping Jack's or push up or something along that lines
Could be a nice badge idea (if they're still doing that even) where Ben is controlled by each of the normals making their own dishes. And then Ben decides who was the best at giving instruction + best vision + best execution. Not sure what the badge would be though.
They have done it Barry controlling James I remember. Got him to do a cloud e.g. miss James
Maybe only have voice communication 1-way, and the normal can see the chef, but can't hear
This is an excellent idea
a BRILLIANT idea, but the punishment should be something way more sinister, they replace an ingredient with one chosen at random by a number generator
Ebbers: "Put that to one side and do as your told."
Ebbers bringing his full fish pie Pass-it On energy to this event.
thats his natural state
Poppy and Jamie's chaotic energies for flavour really came together beautifully in this 🤣
I'm low key convinced they're actually related.
@@Arismas Haha, would not be surprising 🤣
The most Jamie Chef they have ever had in
The most Jamie Chef and most Chef Jamie?
@@hannuala-olla4302 jamie is the only normal to get items in a restaraunt
Poppy and Jamie won this one. Worked better as a team and made the dish I want to eat the most. Still, solid work by Ben and Baz!
This^^^^
J'agree!
I don't think there's any way to call a winner for this one really. Just a fun video
@@AnatharFrost013 5
From you was there energy. Poppy and Jamie just Click really well in that kitchen
Jamie and Poppy might be the most iconic duo ever, they're too hilarious. Also always enjoy some Ebbers teasing Barry. Loved this video. Everything looked delicious.
I don't know why I read that as everybody looked delicious
@@purplespray3768 I mean they all looked very tasty so it's a plausible conclusion to reach
I thought that Jamie and Poppy made a great team and their dish looked wonderful 🥰 Ben and Barry did well but Barry didn’t listen a couple times (shocker) and I think that should be a ding on their score….I loved the mood on Jamie & Poppy
Well, Ben did call him Alligator Station last time
Jamie and Poppy are the best duo ever!! So many jokes and positive energy.
I would like to add though if Ben wasn’t being a wise guy with the scientific names and describing things to provoke him it wouldn’t have as tense. Not that Barry was better just that it fell on both of them
I thought Barry didn't listen. But if Poppy really had no idea, that was kinda lame. The normals did well. Chefs didn't serm engaged.
Poppy good addiction like the feist and her dirty mind.
This was really fun 😁 Not sure about this scoring system, though! Can a third party judge it, without knowing who made what? 🤗
Agreed - Barry totally fudged it all up!!!!
@@jenw6439 Like usual then?
I agree, a third party would be better. This would also be a great way to start introducing the food team.
Came here to say the same! The blind judging is definitely more entertaining
Agreed, though... In the case of the dishes presented this time, how could they NOT know who cooked which unless they'd never had any experience with these guys at all!! I mean, bone marrow and bacon... Who else could it have been?!?! Hahaha
I love how, the moment he gets confident in what he's doing, Barry just can't help himself but become his own worst enemy.
Like last video when he tried to make that sauce which failed
never let Barry judge anything when he's competing in the event! he always gives the opposition a 1 and himself a 10! :D
Whenever you're about to forget that Jamie is colorblind, he reminds you. Poppy is hilarious. That last bit with Jamie talking about his "bone" with a straight face and Poppy quietly losing it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Aside from that, both dishes looked amazing. I wouldn't have been able to choose.
Jamie: I think its turquoise
The internet: 👀
It’s been ages since a Remote Control appeared. It’s going to be such fun 👏🏽
Definitely a lot a fun :)
@@SortedFood for who? 😂✌🏼💫
Baz: Gives himself a really high score despite not listening to his chef several times.
Also Baz: Gives the other team a low score because he "believes" the dish just had to be brought down by Jamie not following orders.
It’s just a bit of fun, it really doesn’t matter.
Seriously, he typically gives himself an outrageously high score, and it's just annoying.
Not even, he gave the other team a ridiculously low score for *plating*
@@alleycaaatI think the large majority of people don't like him I personally can't stand him and I think sorted would be better off replacing him
Not sure how many people could replace him in the role of "friend of over 20 years." @@qazz6209
Next: Combine all your games. Bring James back for an episode, have Poppy again. Each normal gets a chef. The normals do a budget-battle Pass it On with 20 minutes each, being controlled by a chef. Order is based on how each of the normals scored themselves on the previous Pass it On, lowest to highest.
YEEEEESSSSSS
Yes!
@@Rub198 And they have to guess which of the ingredients are trendy, which of the gadgets are new, and how much everything costs.
@@Rub198 Pokerface *while* cooking, brilliant.
YES!!!
Ben and Barry: Hi-de-hi mate, you ready for this? 😁
Poppy and Jamie: Hehehehehehe 😈
Each duo's introduction really sets the tone for the video and it's wonderful
Poppy and Jamie make a great (if slightly chaotic) team!
Idea for a different budget battle; send the normals to the market on their own without telling them anything. Then give them a budget and a time limit to buy their own ingredients and to think about their dishes on the spot. Would be nice to see how their creativity and planning have progressed in the years.
Even better idea, do that and then have them swap items with each other hehe
do that and make it a blind cook for Ebbers... he has to use whatever they bought... and come out with coherent meal... on a tight time limit...
Then they switch ingredients to really screw them up.
@@ah-lc4lf or tell them they are buying for someone else cause knowing them they will want to screw each other over and give them what they bought to use themselves. If that makes sense.
@@ah-lc4lf yay that is for seacond episode
Idea for a battle
Tinned ingredients. But the lables on the tins are removed. You have to use any tin you opened.
And since it's tins, 0 food waste as a goal.
Could also be a very entertaining pass it on
OOOOH GREAT IDEA HOPE THEY DO THIS!!!
Ebbers: "Put that to one side and do as your told."
Ebbers bringing his full fish pie Pass-it On energy to this event. 🤣🤣🤣
Can you imagine how he speaks to Tyrone?
I love seeing the evolution of Poppy from “guest we’re kinda awkward around” to someone who fits perfectly in the videos. Great video!
still a long way to go before I stop cringing when I see or hear her but willing to give it a try
Poppy reigning Jamie in, Barry leaving the hob on at 10:30, Ben telling Barry to 'pea in the pan', this video really has it all huh
Poppy is an agent of chaos and I love her.
Giving Poppy and Jamie a 6 was highway robbery
I know! It's almost like they purposefully underscored them for a win.
YES
Well Ben said Barry was being weird lmao, he probably gave them a low score, not Ben
Typical Barry
Jamie and Poppy have my vote . 👍 Can we talk about that lemon rind being like 1/2 in thick!!! 😂
That was a BEAST of a lemon!
That’s a lemoon.
is it a lemon or a grapefruit?
@@SortedFood sure it was a lemon? Looked like a citron.
It was a pomelo!
I cannot reccomend this style of video enough! It's exactly what us normals do on a daily basis when trying to recreate a UA-camr's recipe! Keep this format going. It reminds us of the choas an online recipe can create!
Poppy is great, but the Poppy + Jamie wombo-combo is top tier and needs to happen again.
Man I absolutely adore Poppy. She has such a good energy and vibe. Watching her and Jamie really made me feel like they had a lot of fun, so it was really fun to watch too!
Please, PLEASE bring Poppy back- I LOVE her so much!🥰
Oh I can't stand her, particularly the cackle.
Poppy is SO much fun. Love it when she pops in for an episode!
It's an average, so we know that Barry gave them a four. Jamie and Poppy put together a more cohesive dish and had way better teamwork in the kitchen, with Jamie actually contributing and providing active feedback.
And that chaotic fuzzy energy we got from them working together, unbeatable.
Chef's are truly a different breed. I can't imagine seeing all those ingredients and then deciding that the stars of ours dishes will be some weird muddy parsnip and artichokes.
As a chef myself I really enjoy making dishes from random ingredients it's one of the best things about being a chef we can make anything
Try salsify! steam them and then grill them like asparagus.
Cleaning them will be a surprise 😜😁😁😁😁😂😂😂😂
Yall just need to make Poppy a semi permanent host, Ya know have her hop in from time to time and film a bunch when she can. She fits in so well and helps the cast dynamic feel like theres even more then there already is is.
I love the fact that they used 45 Minutes to make something for the artichoke... only to say "forget about it". I love it.
Poppy and Jamie won this one....
Love every episode poppy is in
I love how Baz still found a way of slipping "Rogue Baz" into this! 😂
Lol at Jamie’s sigh when he “over crisped” the bacon!- his love for meat has clearly devastated him!🥺😂
Poppy and Jamie win. Good food with a massive side of humor. 😆
I absolutely ADORE when Chef Poppy is on with Chef Ben and the Lads. She reminds me SO MUCH of Chefs that I worked with/under. Humor, inuendoes, and all. Brilliant!
Poppy is my favorite guest of yours (James doesn't count as a guest, he's more like family 😂), I'm so happy to see her again! :) I think she made an amazing team with Jamie. I'd be curious to see how she does with Mike and Barry as well (hint: more remote control videos please!)
Barry just absolutely tanking another team's scores in order to win? SHOCKED! SHOOOCKED!
I know right! shocking
I feel like Barry just ticked Poppy and Jamie's score so he would win. The presentation of the bone dish was fantastic!
Poppy is the piece I never knew was missing from the Sorted team. You all compliment each other so well, especially when she comes round.
These videos are honestly the best, We need more but do ones where the Normals Control the Chefs.
I love the laughter but Poppy's laugh is so great!
OMG! Poppy and Jamie had me laughing so hard! They are hilarious together! The way she snuck around and nicked (?) The whole bottle of bubbles! Blindfold time❓❗❓ you guys just keep making everything better
Keep Poppy around. This reminds of a group of kids that grew up together on the same block! The energy they have together is so fun!!
we always enjoy poppy coming in, she fits so well with the gang. both dishes look interesting since yall tasted them and they were both enjoyed i think i'd leave the score as is because ebbers and baz's dish just seemed more rounded and the task of keeping baz on track was pretty successful. that in itself was worth the winning point.
Ben and Barry made the yummiest dish! I love watching Poppy and Jaime! Hilarious!
Poppy’s face when Jamie said “downstairs” is how I feel every time they say it. Finally, solidarity 😂😂😂
„the hairy bit in the middle“… :-)
I vote for poppy and jamie, both for the teamwork and for the plate of food I'd rather have in front of me.
The face Barry made about the kidneys was the exact one I made too 🤣
Imagine the face he's have made it those hadn't deen pre-washed kidneys! ROFLMAO!
Please do this more often!!! And bring poppy out more! This was such a great watch!
These two dishes look so unexpected and cool! A fun day at the office 👏🏽
Jamie and Poppy won for sure. Looked better, better as a meal.
Lovely to see kidneys used and that dish appealed to me more than the marrow one. Poppy and Jamie were more fun to watch as they have similar senses of humour. I think I learned more about cooking from Ben though and Barry was just Barry, can concentrate for only so long and then gets distracted! I was unsure whether I would enjoy the video at the start but I stuck with it and really did so thanks Sorted team.
In what world did Barry look at Poppy & Jamie’s food and dump on it? There was only one dude ignoring his chef’s orders lmao
Didn’t realize Jamie was color blind…cause that’s a grey plate my friend😂
It's always amazing to me because I want to know the extent of his colorblindness! It's suuuuuuper rare to be totally colorblind, it usually only one of the photoreceptors that's affected.
i love poppy so much! especially the chaotic energy with jamie
Barry is gonna be in trouble with poppy after dissing her plating, just hope he survives after she's done with him.😂
"Hahahah.. To make you WORK!!!" - Best line ever... :D
I really think you need an objective third party to determine the winner, having them rate each other is meaningless.
I love when Poppy is here ❤️❤️ more Poppy always! ❤️☺️
I think a grocery aisle pass it on or battle sounds fun, the guys get ingredients from one grocery aisle, does that makes sense? Lol, Loved this episode!
I love the simultaneous fear and panic of the normals being directed and the growing frustration of the chefs who can’t assist the chaos they see 😂😂
Challenge idea: one set of ingredients, the normals make a dish with their choice from it, then the chef uses up the leftover ingredients.
Watching the blindfold time i was thinking that it should actually have been a " blindfolded and not hearing anything " time... I can only imagine the gorgeous amount of chaos that might ensue... :)
As a cook and food UA-camr with a severe physical disability, I basically do this challenge every week. Although my dad and other helpers are good cooks. I would be happy to control one of the Normals for a future episode, even if I couldn’t taste the final result.
Baz just absolutely foregoing any instructions towards the end lmao
1. Yay, Poppy is back! She and Jamie are a hysterical duo. Love them.
2. I'd love for this to be a series!
Poppy and Jamie is the best team combo! I love you guys! All of youuu!
Why leave the lobster like that? A hot noisy kitchen and you leave a living creature to just suffer on the side
Agree, I was really shocked to see that😔
Poppy always makes these videos better. More visits from her, or other outside chefs, would be lovely.
If Barry leaves the stove on, is it his or Ben’s fault?
great seeing a new remote control!
Amazing! So much fun and chemistry!!
How about one where instead of the chef being blindfolded, they have to disappear for five minutes, and the normal is on his own?
So allow me to recreate my initial viewing of this episode. "Oh, another video of chefs remote controlling normals to make a dish, I guess James was visiting." And then I saw Poppy cackling like the cheffy gremlin she is, in control of Jamie, and I was ready for one hell of a video.
Poppy needs to be permanent. Love her so much! ♥️
Just been released from hospital and watching this in my own bed is bliss! Loving a Friday video too, cheers sorted!
"F*** the artichokes" - words to live by.
I swear I heard Ben say “if you can pee in the pan as well, that’ll be great”
It's 'comfit' in closed captioning, but I absolutely agree. Hearing it, it's what I heard.
Both teams knocked it out of the park!
That was great. Now, we just need Ben and Poppy to have an innuendo competition. They can cook whatever they want, but they have to throw in as many innuendos as they can in a given amount of time.
Oh my god, the internet would explode… It needs to happen!!
Any episode with Poppy is worth a like
Loved this video. Poppy makes these so much funnier 😂 i knew there would be some sort of potato as soon as she was involved and she definitely delivered with the gnocchi 🥔
jamie and poppy work so well together
Poppy's back!! I love her and the energy she brings to the show.
I find the idea of holding the walkie talkies funny when you can see theyre sitting just off to the left end there haha, FOR THE EFFECT
Love that you’ve got to the level of “leaving a lobster on the side whilst it dies”. Good job lads
Really feels like Barry tanked the opposing scores to secure a win. The ending felt weird.
Poppy and Jamie's plate was plated so good, and it was unique. They so should have won.
Poppy and J are absolutely iconic as a team. the literal embodiment of controlled chaos. Don't know what this leafy veg is, just take a giant chomp out of it. wanna decide which plate looks best for the presentation? idk which one looks best with a giant bone sitting on it.
Poppy and Jamie won. Definitely a dish I would like to try, and I like the plating MUCH more. Furthermore, unclear instruction from Ben and Barry not following instructions. Ben clearly said to horizontally slice the kidneys...Barry sliced them vertically, which is what Ben actually wanted.
Overall, not a fan at all of this new scoring system. The only reason Barry and Ben "won" is because Barry's score was obviously terribly low. Either make it a poll for us to choose, or have a neutral third party like it always used to be. I get trying something new, but this isn't good IMO.
What? It just depends which way you are holding the kidneys on the board. If they are flat, you’d cut them horizontally which is probably what Ben would do. If you upright them, you’d cut them vertically, which is what Barry did, likely so he could see what he was doing better. Same outcome.
You need to bring back the ultimate battles. Watching old battles today. The three of them cooking at the same time sabotaging each other was always the best running series.
More Poppy O'Toole pls. shes the heart and soul of these videos. she brings such a huge personality and adds to everybody
Poppy and Jamie are jsut such a good pair. They have great chemistry and are both a bit funny in the same way works so well!
'It looks like we emptied the most pretentious lawnmower'😂
I love Poppy just casually snaffling the fizz. 🍾🥂
They both looked great - even winners I'd say.
The team of Jamie and Poppy is the absolute best.
I'm 100% not surprised that Barry drove down the score and got himself a win because of plating lol
Poppy and Jamie for the very clear win!
1. There’s no way I’m eating kidneys again!
2. Bacon and eggs in bone marrow!
3. Better plating
4. Better cooperation
5. Barry went off the reservation (as usual)
I'm so glad Poppy is back.
If I was directing Barry in a Remote Control Episode, I’d tell him to make Sticky Toffee Pudding.
He makes a good sticky toffee pudding 😉
"If you like the idea of a chef guiding you around the kitchen..." may be the single best *bad* segue to an ad I've ever heard from the actual content of the video. Bravo
