THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF RETURNS, MEET THE BAKERS ENTERING THE TENT IN UPCOMING SERIES

Alison Hammon, Noel Fielding, Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith are back as The Great British Bake Off returns to Channel 4 for a brand new series.

Over the next 10 weeks, 12 of the best amateur bakers in Britain will whisk, knead, ice, beat and bake their way through classic British cakes, perfect patisserie, Italian delights, sticky caramel constructions and elaborate layered puddings.

All Twelve will be hoping to impress with their skill, creativity, knowledge and passion and clinch the Bake off Crown. Each of the 30 new challenges have been carefully designed by judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith to reveal just who is a star baker.
