Over 10 weeks, 12 of the best amateur bakers in Britain will whisk, knead, ice, beat and bake their way through classic British cakes, perfect patisserie, Italian delights, sticky caramel constructions and elaborate layered puddings. All 12 will be hoping to impress with their skill, creativity, knowledge and passion to clinch the Bake Off Crown. Each of the 30 new challenges have been carefully designed by judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith to reveal just who is a star baker.
Cake Week sees the bakers take on a fruity challenge. Prue sets her first technical - a kids' party favourite. Plus, the trickiest showstopper ever set in the first week of Bake Off: an illusion cake.

Week seven of The Great British Bake Off is Italian week. Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood have set three Italian challenges to test the six remaining bakers. There's a Sicilian signature that gets them all hot under the collar; while it's a toss-up as to who will survive the deceptively tricky technical. And finally there's a fiddly showstopper in the hottest temperatures ever recorded in the tent. Who will keep their cool and win star baker? And who will be saying ciao to the tent?

Our five bakers are stepping back in time and using unfamiliar recipes for Forgotten Bakes week. There's a sweet and savoury signature challenge and Prue sets a boozy technical.
It's the semi-final of the Great British Bake Off, and the four remaining bakers are all desperate to claim their place in the final. The remaining bakers know they are just three patisserie challenges away from the biggest day in their baking lives. First comes the signature, and there's no business like choux business as the bakers must set to work on producing 24 exquisite choux buns. Prue has set a complex technical for her first semi-final that leaves everyone stumped. And there's a meringue sculpture showstopper where the bakers mustn't crack under pressure. Who has the skill to reach the Bake Off Final and who will leave the tent?
