My Kitchen Rules eliminates judge's favourite Krysten and Lucy
Judge Colin Fassnidge called Lucy his favourite, but a failed cardamom bun cost them their place.
Krysten and Lucy were eliminated Monday night in a shock decision. The Queensland pair performed well in their elimination challenge with an Indian banquet.
Judge Colin Fassnidge became emotional. Fassnidge came to see Krysten and Lucy after filming, a rarity for judges.
Fassnidge told Lucy she was his favourite and said he thought the pair would win. A cardamom bun dessert ultimately cost them their place.
Harrison and Oliver were saved instead, even though they expected to go home.

Why it mattersA judge's private favourite was still voted out, showing that performance on the day determines outcomes more than behind-the-scenes backing.
AustraliaNo direct Australian impact, though fans of the show will be surprised by the shock elimination and judge's private comments.
