[Braden]

Yes! I can't wait to see the cast.

I'm here for the Charley Uchea of Bake-Off to finally appear.

[lewis111]

I picked Nadiya as my fave from the start last year

Let's hope my early faves wins again (but I have a very strong feeling a male will win)

[MB.]

#TeamVal
#TeamSelasi
#TeamJane

#TeamAnyoneBut'Builder-turned-theologist-turned-Pastor Lee'

[FaLaLaLand]

Candice is faf

[MB.]

I am also enjoying Selasi's existence

"Speciality: Delicate cupcakes" = goddess tbh?

[Black Dagger]

"Speciality: Baking the classics like her nan"

Poor Nan. I hope she's not coming for Mary Berry.

[MB.]

haha cannibalism

[lewis111]

Idk who my fave is

Close between
Candice
Selsasi
Val
Jane
Benjima

[Black Dagger]

haha cannibalism

oh **** off as if you've not had some bad jokes in your time.

[Marsh.]

as if you've not had some bad jokes in your time.

He slept with you? :omgno:

[Ross.]

"Speciality: Baking the classics like her nan"

Poor Nan. I hope she's not coming for Mary Berry.

Oh dear

[Braden]

It's hard to judge what any of them will be like on the show, but hmm they seem like a varied bunch :p

Benjamina is an amazing name though.

[Natalie.]

Can't wait for this :D

[Nicky91]

#TeamCandice :D

[Pete.]

Benjamina wins

[Braden]

I saw this comment on Facebook:

Why do men and women have to be separated by blue and pink?! It's only baking! They're adults, not newborns. It's obvious what they are

I know it's not a big deal but I can't help but agree :p

[Natalie.]

I saw this comment on Facebook:



I know it's not a big deal but I can't help but agree :p

I was thinking that earlier, a bit silly

[Marsh.]

Just saw all of the "controversy" on twitter about the blue and pink icing.

What a load of rubbish. Do people not have anything important to complain about?

I do hope the long hair on some of the females wasn't sexist too. :omgno:

[jennyjuniper]

That poor guy! and he kept cutting himself :(
What a great start those showstoppers were amazing! Wish I could bake.

You can Kizzy. Anyone can. Start off with something simple like muffins and as your confidence grows so will your expertise. You'll be churning out squirrel cakes in no time.:wavey:

[LukeB]

When is this back on?

[MB.]

Next Wednesday

.

[jennyjuniper]

I wish I was a good baker . All I can make is cakes,cupcakes

If you can make those then you already ARE a baker. If you want to be more adventerous try Jane Ashers cake recipe book. She does some amazing cakes and many are far more simple than they look.

[Pete.]

Benjamina's takeover starts in 10 minutes

[Natalie.]

...can't resist the double drizzle, Natalie...

Selsasi seems a bit too far ahead of the competition for me

[Ross.]
