The 2020 series came to an end a few weeks back, but that - and tonight’s “Best Bits” show - had me thinking about what I consider the best bits (there might be some overlap with the show!). So, let’s get to it, here are some of my highlights from the ten years of The… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Best Bits

The Great British Bake Off Week 10
It's the FINAL (ok, deep breaths, guys!) of the Great British Bake Off. Can you believe after 10 weeks of tiers, tears and tension in every Brits favourite tent the competition is over? (I definitely can't!). (For my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6,… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 10
The Great British Bake Off Week 9
It's the Semi-Final of everyone's favourite baking competition (just my favourite? Ok) and, so far, it's been quite the competition! There's been plenty of heat, helping, Hollywood handshakes and amazing flavours and designs. (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6, Week… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 9
The Great British Bake Off Week 8
Can you believe it's the quarter final already? (I definitely can't!). The competition stepped up a notch as the final five battled for a place in the semi-finals, in rather cheery Hawaiian shirts (as an ode to Jon, who left the competition last week) but- as Paul and Prue got critical- the atmosphere in the tent got… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 8
The Great British Bake Off Week 7
The tent was free of dairy this week but there was still plenty of tiers, tears and tension as the remaining six bakers fought for a place in the quarter final. (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5 and Week 6) This week,… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 7
The Great British Bake Off Week 6
The bakers could really filo the pressure this week, as the competition creeps closer and closer to the final, in a series that’s been handshakes aplenty, filled with glorious bakes and plenty of nail biting moments. ( You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: The Great British Bake Off Week 1, The Great… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 6
The Great British Bake Off: Week 5
Paul and Prue added another chilli to the already hot competition with a set of new Bake Off challenges, in a competition that's already been full of great bakes, handshakes and plenty of mistakes! (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: one, two, three and four) This week the bakers faced Spice Week,… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off: Week 5
The Great British Bake Off: Week 4
We're four weeks into the current series of The Great British Bake Off and so far there's been plenty of Hollywood handshakes, heavenly (and hellish) bakes and heatwaves in the Bake Off tent. (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks here: Week 1, Week 2 and Week 3) This week the bakers faced… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off: Week 4
The Great British Bake Off Week 3
The Great British Bake Off kicked off two weeks ago and, let me tell you, it's been exciting! There's been a dodgy looking biscuit baby, a French contestant dropping an 'F' bomb (on British TV? Before the watershed? Shocking, I know) and three Hollywood handshakes (so far). (You can read my thoughts on Week One HERE and my… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 3
The Great British Bake Off Week 2
The Great British Bake Off returned to our tellies last week (you can find out what I thought about the first episode HERE) and if you couldn't tell already I was pretty excited! My sense of excitement was ramped up a notch this week as the baking competition continued, this time with Cake Week (to… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 2
