00:00Dame Prue-Leath will step away as a judge on the Great British Bake Off after nine series
00:05and more than 400 challenges. The 86-year-old said she will miss working with her fellow
00:11judges, presenters and the contestants, but feels it is the right time to focus on other
00:17interests, including spending more summers enjoying her garden. Channel 4 praised her
00:23for combining expert knowledge, warmth and humour, saying she leaves a lasting mark on
00:29both the show and all the bakers she's worked with. The next series will air later this year
00:35with producers confirming a new judge will be announced in due course, giving viewers time
00:41to see who will continue the legacy of the tent.
