The Great British Sewing Bee fans all have the same issue with Esme – but did you notice?

THE Great British Sewing Bee fans have all had the same issue with Esme Young – but have you noticed?

The 73-year-old fashion designer has been a judge on the BBC series since 2016 and certainly knows her stuff.

However, some viewers have picked up on a word she says on a regular basis which makes them cringe.

Just as many food fans hate the word “moist”, the one that really stands out to Sewing Bee viewers is “gusset”.

Unfortunately for them it popped up in this week’s episode as Esme and fellow judge Patrick Grant judged the contestant’s items.

The theme was Sports Week and the participants had to make a pair of high-top trainers, before the Made-to-Measure Challenge saw them fit a jacket inspired by their sporting hero.

As Esme checked out Marni’s zip up pull on jacket, she praised her on the craftsmanship, saying: “I think it fits well, I love that we have these ties and they match what you’ve made the garment out of.

“This gusset here looks great, ooh we’ve got another gusset, you’ve really thought about this.”

However, viewers couldn’t help but comment on how she said gusset, with one writing on Twitter: “I cringe every time Esme says gusset 😳 #SewingBee.”

A fellow viewer made it even worse by joking back: “I love a moist gusset hahaha.”

Another added: “Esme stop saying ‘gusset’ challenge #sewingbee.”

After all three rounds were completed, the judges had a decision to make.

And despite her creative designs – including a one shouldered sports jacket, it was Chichi who was sent home.

Getting emotional, she said: “I will always be proud of what I’ve achieved and I’m going to miss everyone so much.”

The Great British Sewing Bee airs Wednesdays at 9pm on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
