James: sets ambitious plan that will never survive till Ben's turn Jamie: removes one bit of greenery that might still contain a vitamin Barry: can't understand the plan, decides he doesn't care Mike: can't understand the plan, berates himself for it for ten minutes Ben: miraculously understands what James was trying to do and pulls it out the fire Pass-it-on: completely normal :D

Ben pulled off a Christmas Miracle!

[@harrytodhunter5078]

That performance is precisely why I love Ben. Does about 10 things at once with great skill and precision, in such a calm yet energetic way AND commentates in a clear and concise way on top of that. What a top lad!

[@grumpymuggles]

“Calm yet energetic” such a confusing but accurate way to describe him! I love watching him save the dishes 😂

[@aimeelelievre9280]

Ben was an effing rockstar in this!

[@sanosuke001]

He basically saved the dish, fixed everything that was missing something or unfinished, and pulled it all together in almost no time and still only gave himself a 7.5. 11/10 good job, buddy!

[@anisgilos]

He's absolutely perfect:')

[@GreaterBookWyrm]

and then at the end says "All I did was plate it up". What a hero.

[@mattsmith6558]

Ben is so impressive. He deciphers what people have done, comes up with a plan to rescue it, all the while talking to the camera and explaining what his thought process is. Amazing!

[@borandiUK]

And immediately cleans away any clues left for him before he thinks about what's going on.

[@sethh5106]

Yeah he says he just added stuff to a plate but he saved the cabbage, made sprouts that added a lot of green to the plate, and made a jus. And he gives himself a 7.5. Easily a 10

[@booates]

@@sethh5106 7.5 isnt a low score

[@Herr_U]

Got to love the fact that Ben finds sprouts in the the fridge, starts to prepare it, and only then question why there were sprouts in the fridge.

[@mordecai2005]

Classic Ebbers!

[@aceggkspade958]

Ebbers killed it James was good Mike helped Berry started something that turned out decent but didn’t really ruin anything And Jamie destroyed celeriac, hid Brussels Sprouts, only to make his own cabbage slammed with vinegar that Ben had to save. Instead of adding a stock to cook the celeriac he removed it rendering it inedible and ignored the rest... OH and added bacon which my 5 year old can do. Then proceeded to rate himself almost as good as the chefs. Hahaha 😂 classic Jamie

[@BlueGangsta1958]

The vinegar in the cabbage wasn't his fault though. At most, you could blame him for not putting some mulled wine next to the pot for later. But really, if Barry had checked on the cabbage, he'd have noticed that it needed some liquid and probably would've gotten something more appropriate than vinegar

[@adeen5438]

Favorite parts: the fact that Jamie hid the sprouts and Ben found them at the end, Baz cutting off his bell, James at the beginning giggling at being told we voted him "most festive". Ben deserved a friggin 10 out of 10 for his save at the end, you did much more than just "put stuff on a plate" you made an entire new side, saved other sides, made sure everything that someone contributed was on there, made a gravy out of nowhere. Also, Mike, simply because I didn't mention you yet, you were cool too. :) Happy Christmas.

[@sethh5106]

Chekov's sprouts

[@gabrielstrong2186]

Jamie needs to “up” his hiding game. Sticking stuff in the fridge is not good enough to save the world from Brussels Sprouts

His ideas are wonderful but after him there's gonna be 30 minutes of normals who won't know what's going on and won't be able to take action even if they did know what was going on. Do the normals know how to cook duck or make fondant celeriac? It feels like it sets them up for failure that none of them can really recover from, and then ben had to fix it all.

I love the way that the first thing Ben always does is automatically tidy things away without realising he's getting rid of clues left for him. There was a stock cube on that plate, Ben! You could've seen that instead of standing around later saying "They haven't got any stock out." 🤣 (PS, 'Talk turkey to me' is clearly the winner of the jumpers, at least)

[@Shaphina]

He even looked straight at it and almost picked up the cube before moving the plate.

[@MissRora]

I dunno man, I'm really liking Mike's "Lobster Claus" getup.

[@kendallgibson]

That reminds me of one time where one had written a clue in flour, and he just NEVER NOTICED IT. Just cleaned it up.

[@emjayay]

What's wrong with you people? James' jumper is obviously the winner. First, it's on James. Second, the message is maybe too spot on.

[@ryanoftinellb]

Mike brings out a plate, puts it in the centre of things, places a stock cube in the middle. Ben moves it completely aside, and brings out *the same plate*.

I thought roasting the carrots/glazing them would be pretty obvious seeing how it's already there and there's a meat item, tunnel vision I guess haha.

[@QuirkyQuillify]

Ben is so under-rated. He embodies the most Christmas spirit in my opinion. He is always patient, calm, and cheerful. In most cases, he is consistently the most talented and capable guy in the kitchen. He was considerate enough to put everybody's effort on the plate, despite knowing that the celeriac wasn't cooked at all. He is the most generous in judging the results: highlighting the positives and overlooking the faults. The more I watch Sorted, the more I see good qualities in Ben that I wish I had. Ben has the most holiday cheer not just during Christmas, but 365 days of the year!

[@kabbaage]

On the "duck might not be Christmas-y" part, in Denmark a whole roast duck is integral in a classic Christmas dinner.

I love when the chefs bookend. Everything the first chef planned only has a chance of happening in the final ten minutes lol

This is a real Christmas special. Begins off happy and good, then it goes downhill for a climaxing everything going wrong. Then, at the end, it recovers in a beautiful, festive conclusion.

It really does impress me how Ben comes in and ties it all together, comes up with a dish, plates it all, and still manages to take moments to talk the audience through his decisions and/or the steps. Possible future theme: SUPER BOWL! Their take on it, at least. Also I would love to see a Cajun/Louisiana theme, especially since they visited NOLA.

I for one love the goose route at Christmas. Well done. Ed. As a chef just finishing my shift, may I just say the job Ben did was so amazing I'm still not sure you didn't fiddle with the edit. Everything was ruined then everything was saved.

[@datatulip]

Ben always underrates himself! He saves the day so bloody often!

[@RunEscaqe3]

honestly Ben did 10/10 on this one he really saved everything.

[@mjevans4]

Aw poor Grinch Ben. You're fabulous! You guys crack me up and appreciate your enthusiasm. Keep it up! Merry Christmas!
