I predict there will be a cute one that I will fall in love with and then be gutted when she doesn't win. Happens every year. |

GBBO...is the BBC proving that they can raise the standard of tv, with a show that has an even distribution of nuts.
It's a technical challenge to organise the show, but what a show-stopper!
Paul and Sue are the icing on the cake! Yummy! |

The production team scoff the lot. My daughters friend was in the second series so I was hooked from then. He dropped out of uni where he was doing his masters in engineering to bake!
I'm hoping the ginger lad does well. The two cry baby women and Salasie are already annoying me.

Maybe. She seems to be very creative. Loved that pool table from last week.
She does overthink things a bit though. Needs to loosen up and go for basics and do them well. |

The reason why it's showing so late in the year was because of all the negotiations initially ...

"It's going to Channel 4... back to where Mel and Sue started out.
"
which means it won't be on for 2 years after this series as part of the bbc leaving contract....
I wonder how many of them will go because mary and paul were especially vocal about wanting to stay with the BBC..... |

It could be a whole new cast. I think they like being a team.

thats why i wonder if the bbc will make something "in house" using the 4 of them together....
and there is no real reason for them to keep that pottery thing and the sewing bee thing either now... as i am sure they were only showing those to keep "bake off" |

It will not be the same, just like f1 was moved to ch4, but I will still watch it. |

It would be difficult to doing anything that includes competitive baking but I'm sure someone is working on coming up with something.
I think Sewing Bee has a better following than the pottery one. All of them fit well with the BBC's get creative web stuff too.

I'd like to see an version of Come Dine With Me, with all the bakers from GBBO, so the contestants judge each other's creations and have a natter around a large table, innuendo aplenty, soggy bottoms and disasters included as standard, which are a normal feature of both programmes anyway. Alcohol essential, loose tongues, drama queens, show offs, vegetarians, posh and commoners, multi national and film crews who are shown to adjust the oven temperatures when not noticed, as I'm sure is what often happens on Come Dine With Me anyway. |

And the obligatory holding of the bowl upside down and over their head, when making a meringue to soft peak stage for every contestant. |

I said I thought they'd stick together as a team. I doubt Paul and Mary will remain with the show.
I am sure the BBC commissioners are busy offering them some sort of deal for a show.
The obvious choice for Ch4 is to put Nadiya in as a Mary or Paul. |

I don't like it. I do try but Mary is way past her sell by date and should be put into a trifle. Paul has always been stale and the other two are only half baked.

ooooooooooooooo I was going to say only the once but I think you should start a new thread with people naming four names they think would make a good job of it.

Did they? I make heart-shaped crumpets when I'm in the mood.
Meanwhile, to make it interesting, why don't you lot look ahead to what they're baking next week and do Bake Off-themed avatars every Wednesday?

Yes and I reckon it is quite hard to do it in a heart shape, yeah good idea with a bake off pic too each week. |

I'm not sure about building the new team around Hollywood. If they get Nadiya it might work as she was quite sparky with him.

actually... not surprised....
because channel 4 are considered a public service broadcaster... its not really in their remit to in effect steal a program from the other one (in the case of horse racing and F1... which have also made the leap, the bbc voluntarily gave them up )

So do I. But to judge them when there's more than the usual flaked almond coating pet slice? Bit unfair. |
