The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2022 — release date, line-up and everything we know
The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2022 is back to help raise money for life-changing cancer research.
The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2022 for Stand Up To Cancer has a new set of celebrities donning their aprons and testing their baking skills in the hope to be crowned the star baker with their delicious creations.
In each episode, 4 new celebrities will take on 3 challenges, including the Signature, the Technical and the Showstopper, all hoping to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith.
This time, presenter Noel Fielding will be missing his fellow presenter Matt Lucas, who is up to face the pressures of the tent as he fills in for a missing baker.
Matt said: “I was forced to bake by my bosses at the last minute when one of the bakers became unavailable. I can’t tell you how happy I was that my humiliation was caught on camera.”
Here’s everything we know about The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2022…
