So that was Cake Week. “Tell us about your beaver” will be remembered for episodes to come, but hopefully in the future we’ll look back at this episode as one where Bake Off turned a corner for the better.
Alison Hammond is the perfect addition to the tent. She feels so at home only after one episode. It is a great sign of things to come.
Thank you so much for reading and for your lovely comments this week. In the spirit of Alison… see you next week, babes.
And leaving the tent is… Amos.
Gutting. He performed so well in the first two challenges, even coming second in the Technical.
But it only takes one bad day for your time in the tent to come to an end, and that is what happened to Amos. He couldn’t have put it any better himself: “It was the Showstopper that stopped my show.”
