DARK SECRETS: Alison hammond to be announced as new great british bake off host | Rare Historical Photos

Alison Hammond is set to be announced as the new Great British Bake Off presenter after Matt Lucas resigned last year.

The iconic Channel 4 series is set to return later this year, where Alison will join comedian Noel Fielding to welcome the 12 new bakers to the tent. Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith will be returning as judges as TV bosses are set to announce Alison's new role within days.

This Morning favourite Alison will become the first non-white host or judge in the show’s 14-year history. One source told The Mirror: “Alison is a great choice. She will bring warmth and humour to the tent in spades. We’re laughing just thinking about it.”
