It was biscuit week on the Great British Bake Off – enjoy this batch of hot takes
We’re not even going to pretend that we weren’t eagerly waiting for this week’s episode of Bake Off.
That one hour and fifteen minutes where we can try and forget about how terrible everything in Britain is and instead focus on showstoppers trying to stay upright, phallic looking bakes and bet on how many times Paul Hollywood is going to be a bit of a (Hob)knob this week.
Week 2 was Biscuit Week and the viewers had plenty to say about it. Here are some of our favourite reactions.
1.
All the #GreatBritishBakeOff contestants have so many (fake sounding) hobbies. Another reason I couldn’t do the show. In the intro bit for me, Noel would have to say: “In Alex’s spare time she lies on the sofa watching Netflix until her TV automatically turns off”.

Paul trying to force these innuendos all the time is painful. Where will we end up.
Baker: I’m making a Victoria sponge
Paul: yeah but how bigs your cock

You know that series of Celebrity Big Brother where Chantelle wasn’t a celebrity but had to convince the others she was? Is Jamie doing that but for baking? #GBBO

I want Jamie from bake off to have his own baking tv show where everything goes wrong but he accepts it and moves on to the next disaster #gbbo

New Bake Off challenge:
Brownie week where one person makes weed brownies and the judges have to work out who made them.
Plot twist, all contestants think they’re the one making the weed brownies. #GBBO2019 #GreatBritishBakeOff #surprise

“It’s all about timing.” “Get it wrong and whole thing will collapse”. “it will be interesting to see how the cardamom will work with that.” Paul Hollywood is basically talking about Brexit.
Sort of. #gbbo
