There's not long to go until the heat is on the kitchen again, as Channel 4 have confirmed The Great British Bake Off will return on Tuesday 27th August. Hooray!

Will anything ever top the infamous Baked Alaska-gate of 2014 (aka #BinGate) when contestant Iain Watters angrily threw his melted Baked Alaska in the bin after it was removed from the freezer by rival contestant Diana Beard. Was it sabotage? It became a national debate and the story was covered by BBC One's posh 'ol Newsnight!

Presenters Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig are back on board for Series 10 of The Great British Bake Off, along with judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith.
The series originally began on BBC Two in 2010 with Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry as judges, and Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc presenting.
It moved to BBC One in 2014 before making a much-publicised move to Channel 4 in 2016.
