00:00MUSIC
00:20Hello and welcome to An Extra Slice,
00:23where I'm tearing into bread week and smothering it in butter.
00:27And I'm joined by a batch of Bake Off superfans.
00:30Ian Sterling, Natalie Cassidy and Kyle Smith-Bino.
00:34CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
00:39Now, I reckon people fall into two camps, right,
00:42when it comes to bread.
00:44Those who make their own sourdough
00:47and the rest of us normal people.
00:50Audience, who keeps a sourdough starter in their airing cupboard?
00:55Ooh!
00:57LAUGHTER
00:59Wow.
01:00Only on the shore would someone be that excited about bread.
01:04LAUGHTER
01:05Do you really?
01:06No!
01:07Oh!
01:08I'm so delighted.
01:10Any of you bake your own bread?
01:13I'd love to say I do, but I'd be lying.
01:15Um, no, never.
01:17My brother-in-law gave me a sourdough starter at Christmas time
01:21and I left it and just forgot about it in the fridge.
01:24I'm also very jealous you've got an airing cupboard.
01:26LAUGHTER
01:28I got a sourdough starter as well,
01:30so I deliberately put too much water in,
01:33and I said to the person that bought it for me,
01:36I'm really sure I've made a mistake,
01:38and they bought me another one.
01:39LAUGHTER
01:41My daughter did the Junior Bake Off
01:43and she made an amazing Frida Kahlo bread.
01:46Frida Kahlo, amazing!
01:47It was massive, yeah.
01:48Oh, look, there it is!
01:49Oh, there you go!
01:50Oh, yeah, she... Oh, my God!
01:51Yeah.
01:52That was Eliza's, yeah.
01:53That's fantastic.
01:54She was 36 at the time.
01:56Yeah!
01:57She was 10 Ian, actually.
01:59Now, down at the Bake Off tent,
02:01the signature challenge was to make monkey bread.
02:04Here's an unseen bit of Paul explaining exactly what that is.
02:08Seeds add a huge amount of texture and flavour
02:11to each one of those monkey balls.
02:14LAUGHTER
02:17In Paul's defence, there's no way you can say monkey balls
02:21and keep a straight face.
02:23Although I just did.
02:24It's a grow-up, Paul.
02:25LAUGHTER
02:26He was still obsessed by the subject later in the show
02:29when he was discussing Ian's progress.
02:32Ian smashed it yesterday.
02:33Ian did a great signature.
02:35The design I loved and the flavours that I really got on with.
02:39The cheese ball.
02:40Yeah.
02:41I mean, he was sixth in test... test... testicle.
02:44LAUGHTER
02:46Oh, Paul's balling it up there.
02:48Meanwhile, watching Jessica make her showstopper
02:51reminded me of something I've seen recently.
02:54LAUGHTER
02:57Coming up, I'll be challenging our panel
02:59to identify a mystery celeb in their kitchen.
03:02Here's a quick preview.
03:08And if you can get it from that...
03:09I've got it!
03:10Oh, don't tell me, because...
03:11I'll save Kylie Minogue for the lie.
03:13LAUGHTER
03:14OK, well, let's have a quick rundown of what happened
03:18in the Feast of Yeast.
03:20Oh, that doesn't sound very appetising, does it?
03:22LAUGHTER
03:23Here's what went down in Bread Week.
03:27Bread Week swung into action with the monkey bread signature.
03:31Prue explained how the loaf got its name.
03:33The reason it's called monkey bread is that everybody
03:36pulls a little piece off and you're like a monkey.
03:39But no-one was any the wiser.
03:41For some reason, Lesley...
03:43Pardon?
03:44..I said Lesley decided to say everything twice.
03:47Garlic, it's garlic, yeah.
03:49I'm going to use it, use it.
03:51The technical was a sugary staple.
03:54The glazed ring doughnut.
03:56After getting over her shock at seeing a deep fat fryer,
04:00Jasmine triumphed.
04:01Whoop!
04:03In The Sweet Bread Showstopper,
04:04Tom had a big job on his hands.
04:07I'm trying to make this not look like a poo.
04:09While Aaron's bake made Paul's day.
04:12Yes, Aaron.
04:14That's beautiful.
04:15Jasmine was crowned star baker.
04:17And we said goodbye to Poi Man who left the tent.
04:21Oh!
04:26So, out of this year's bunch, who's impressing you?
04:30I think Jasmine.
04:31Really amazing patterns and presentation.
04:34Who's impressing you, Natalie?
04:36I really, really like Aaron.
04:38I really do.
04:39I was so scared for him because those first two bakes,
04:41it was a bit rocky.
04:42But I was so pleased that the last one came out really well.
04:45Just love him as a person.
04:46And I really, really like Nadia.
04:48I think she brings a lot of light to the tent
04:50and I think we'd miss her if she wasn't there,
04:51so I'm pleased she's doing well.
04:52Who do you like?
04:53I like Ian because his name's spelt properly.
04:57Like mine.
04:58And then sometimes when I'm watching Bake Off, I close my eyes
05:00and it sounds like Paul Hollywood saying nice things to me.
05:04Sometimes I'll bake a cake and then just play things.
05:07Oh, that was excellent, Ian.
05:08And I'll go, oh, yeah.
05:11Shake my hand, Ian.
05:12Dirty salt.
05:13Is that like a Scottish Ian?
05:16I don't know.
05:17Maybe they were...
05:18It's got seven vowels in it, hasn't it?
05:20It's got seven vowels in four letters.
05:22It's a real achievement.
05:24But also, I think he's really good.
05:26I think he got really unlucky because I think there's a lot
05:28of taste involved.
05:29Maybe he's not very traditional, but his showstopper
05:31was all dark and gothic and they sort of wrote it off.
05:34But I was like, I think that's kind of Andy Warhol-like
05:38wackiness to it and I really liked it.
05:40So, yeah, I really like Ian a lot.
05:41Did you feel for him?
05:43A little bit, but I did think the decoration...
05:46I know it was spooky, but if you're going to go like that,
05:49I think it could have been better.
05:50And he was banging on about how brilliant he was at bread,
05:52so I sort of smoked a little bit when it went a bit wrong.
05:56So, Poi Man left the tent this week.
05:58Her monkey bread...
05:59Aww.
06:00Aww.
06:01It's like Panto already, isn't it?
06:04Hey!
06:05Aww.
06:06Well, her monkey bread lacked flavour,
06:08while her under-proved doughnuts landed her bottom
06:11in the technical for the second week running.
06:14I mean, it was a shame because she headed into the technical,
06:17exuding such positivity.
06:19I'm not looking forward to a teleco challenge.
06:21I would be at the bottom again.
06:24It's not my thing.
06:27That's the spirit.
06:29Are you optimists or pessimists?
06:31I think I tend to find the silver lining.
06:34If I was to burn the kitchen down, for example,
06:36I'd be like, well, it's warmer now.
06:39Absolutely.
06:40Yeah.
06:41My dad's a real pessimist.
06:42I remember when I had my first break-up and I was like,
06:44you know that first break-up when you're, like, 22
06:46and you go back to your parents and you're all, like, ugly crying and stuff?
06:49I said to my dad, oh, my girlfriend left me and he said,
06:52well, why wouldn't she?
06:54LAUGHTER
06:59And it sort of you went, oh, it's fair point.
07:01Absolutely.
07:03Now, a poor man's tiered showstopper went down well,
07:06but sadly wasn't enough to save her.
07:08It looked lovely.
07:10Would you have sent her home after she produced that?
07:12I was really surprised.
07:14I know she'd had, sort of, terrible time up until that point,
07:17but I thought her comments were quite positive.
07:19I thought, oh, she's scraped through here,
07:21so I was quite surprised to see her go.
07:22I had my hopes dashed recently.
07:24I failed the audition for Celebs Go Dating, so...
07:29I know, my husband wasn't delighted.
07:35Have you ever had your hopes dashed, KL?
07:38Not ever.
07:43Right, on a happier note,
07:44and I'm delighted to say we'll be chatting to Poy Man a bit later on.
07:48So, audience, have your questions at the ready.
07:50And it was congrats to our new star baker, Jasmine.
07:52CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
07:53And I'm delighted to say we'll be chatting to Poy Man a bit later on.
07:56So, audience, have your questions at the ready.
07:58And it was congrats to our new star baker, Jasmine.
08:02CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
08:04Her technical win was bookended by her delicious messe monkey bread
08:08and midsummer-themed showstopper.
08:10I found an unseen moment where Jasmine was explaining what she was doing,
08:12but it sounded unnervingly like a weird pick-up line.
08:26Hey. Hello. Just putting all my wet ingredients into my... dough.
08:30LAUGHTER
08:32You won't believe this, but that is actually my pick-up line.
08:34LAUGHTER
08:36LAUGHTER
08:46So, the signature was monkey bread.
08:50And Leslie talked us through her recipe
08:52while fitting in a quick session on the Cross Trainer.
08:55It was monkey bread, and Lesley talked her through her recipe
08:58while fitting in a quick session on the cross trainer.
09:01I need to build up the gluten strands and make it nice and light
09:05and fluffy and tear apart.
09:07Well done, Lesley, only another 3K to go.
09:11Now, it was a disappointing challenge for Aaron.
09:14His bread failed to rise and the judges were underwhelmed.
09:18The thing I love about this show when you mess up a bake
09:21is giving it to Prue and Paul knowing, like,
09:24you know it's bad, they know it's bad,
09:26but they've still got to... Don't eat it.
09:28Yeah. Just look at it and save yourself the hassle.
09:31But he eats it and he always leaves it in his mouth
09:33for that little bit too long while he's thinking
09:35of what awful thing he's going to say.
09:37Absolutely.
09:39And then, yeah, then he just tells you it's bad,
09:40which is like being in a car crash and someone being like,
09:43you've not driven well.
09:44It's the last thing you need to hear.
09:47I'd love to know what a proven draw is.
09:49I just heard it being said all the time and I was like, oh, yeah, yeah.
09:52And then I thought about it and I was like, I don't know what that is.
09:54I don't know if it goes cold or hot.
09:57Let's ask Coy Man when she comes on.
09:59Yeah.
10:00She'll know.
10:01OK.
10:02Hopefully.
10:03So she will.
10:05You all acted like I was having a go.
10:07I mean, I'm genuinely hopeful.
10:09OK.
10:10I was just thinking of having a bet with you.
10:12I bet you a fiver that she does know.
10:14A bet a fiver she doesn't.
10:16OK.
10:17Oh, OK.
10:19The showstopper this week was to make a celebratory sweetbread.
10:23And as the showstopper got underway,
10:25Aaron was acting like a bouncer outside a nightclub.
10:28You know, if your name's not on the list,
10:29you're not getting in the fridge for you.
10:31LAUGHTER
10:33After his nightmare signature,
10:39Aaron impressively turned things round
10:41with his beautiful flowers in paradise.
10:44Amazing.
10:45They're incredible, aren't they?
10:46Absolutely amazing.
10:47What did you think of that?
10:48I was just thrilled for him because he is one of my favourites
10:50and I really didn't want him to go,
10:52so I was so pleased that it all came out right for him.
10:54And you could tell he was very, very worried.
10:56He cares a lot.
10:57And he was emotional because of the reasons behind it.
10:59Natalia decided to make a traditional Ukrainian korovai bread
11:04and she wasn't the only one.
11:05I'm making a korovai-style sweetbread.
11:09Ooh. Three tips. That's controversial.
11:11Is it?
11:11You know Natalia's making one. She is Ukrainian.
11:15Paul really is a little sh...
11:17..a little...
11:18..a little stirrer, isn't he?
11:21The Bake Off tent is in the beautiful countryside of Berkshire,
11:25but like so many parts of the country these days,
11:27the water quality isn't all it could be.
11:31I'm making my lovely chocolate tree.
11:33LAUGHTER
11:35It turned out to be his fondant
11:38and Tom was worried that it would look a bit rubbish.
11:40But maybe if Tom gets it cold enough to quote the saying,
11:44he could polish it.
11:45LAUGHTER
11:48OK, we've heard what our guests made of Bread Week.
11:50Let's hear from a man who always has thoughts of his own.
11:54Time to break bread with our very own Tom Allen.
11:57APPLAUSE
11:59Hi, hi, hi.
12:02Hi, everybody. Hello, everyone.
12:04Hello.
12:05Oh, hello.
12:06So, Tom, what did you think of Bake Off this week?
12:09Well, Joe, I've got to tell you, actually, I was disgusted.
12:14I do not want to watch what has become a mudslide of absolute filth
12:21and in-you-en-do.
12:24LAUGHTER
12:26I'm sick of it.
12:27And I've had to take action.
12:28I've written a complaint letter to Ofcom.
12:30Would you like to hear it?
12:31LAUGHTER
12:32Dear Ofcom, cheesy balls, glazed doughnut holes,
12:43and then who could forget this from Dame Prue, no less?
12:46She's not as tight as I thought it would be.
12:48LAUGHTER
12:50Disgusting.
12:52A soggy bottom is one thing, a drooping morning glory is,
12:55I'm afraid, a step too far.
13:01Like any hot-blooded male,
13:04I enjoy watching television with my mother.
13:07LAUGHTER
13:09We just want to watch a simple baking competition
13:12with simple baking.
13:13In my younger days, I used to love a Bakewell tart.
13:16Loved it, until a man stole my cherry.
13:19LAUGHTER
13:20And I haven't been to Regent's Park since.
13:22LAUGHTER
13:23I used to love a nice finger on the top deck of the 1-9-7 to pay.
13:28LAUGHTER
13:30I said ice finger, thank you.
13:33I implore you enough of this innuendo, Channel 4,
13:35get back to basics.
13:36The one saving grace of this episode is that Lesley
13:39never lowered the tone by doing silly innuendo.
13:43I hope I can pull it off.
13:45LAUGHTER
13:46That's the sort of grit and determination we want to see on our screens.
13:49So, in short, Ofcom, it's time to end all this gratuitous smut.
13:53This isn't Love Island, for heaven's sake.
13:55LAUGHTER
13:56Just gratefully.
13:57T. Allen, Bake Off Extra Slice, Shepherd's Bush.
13:59CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
14:01Have you ever had any complaints about you?
14:08Hundreds, yeah.
14:09LAUGHTER
14:10But I used to host on CBBC with Hack of a Dog.
14:13Mm.
14:14On Kids TV, we were on points of view for...
14:16I'm not making... for being too childish.
14:18LAUGHTER
14:19Really?
14:20It was a couple of kids from Leamington Spa going,
14:23we like rules round, and then we have to watch these two idiots.
14:27And then it just cut to me dressed as a caveman.
14:30LAUGHTER
14:32Natalie, Kyle, have you ever complained about something,
14:34or been complained about?
14:35No.
14:36I hosted a show recently, and there were a few complaints,
14:39because the host didn't know what he was talking about.
14:42Oh.
14:43Yes.
14:44What were you talking about?
14:45What were you talking about?
14:46Sowing.
14:47LAUGHTER
14:49Are you as capable of sower as you are a baker?
14:52Yes.
14:53OK.
14:54OK, thank you, Tom.
14:55And now, after the break, we'll be sifting through the highs
14:58and lows of your home baking pictures,
15:00and Tom will be scrutinising the audience and their bakes.
15:04See you shortly.
15:05APPLAUSE
15:07Welcome back.
15:19Here to prove they know all about bread,
15:22I'm with Ian Stirling, Natalie Cassidy and Kyle Smith-Bino.
15:26Coming up later, we'll be talking to Poi Man.
15:29So, that's in half an hour's time, Poi Man.
15:37Now, we've asked our audience to anonymously share
15:40their kitchen confessions with us.
15:42Tom.
15:44When we were growing up, my mother used to use our lemon zester...
15:52..to also file down the corns on her feet.
15:55LAUGHTER
15:57I knew it was going to feet territory.
15:59LAUGHTER
16:00Zesty.
16:01It's certainly zesty.
16:03I had a friend, food confession, that once used to think,
16:07do you know, in chicken shops, you get the things
16:10for cleaning your fingers?
16:11No, no idea.
16:12He thought that was putting lemon flavour onto his food.
16:15LAUGHTER
16:16So he put it on the chicken?
16:17He'd just, like, wipe it, squidge it.
16:19LAUGHTER
16:21That's hilarious.
16:21He thought it was, like, a lemon scent thing,
16:23cos it comes in the bag with, like, the salt, the pepper,
16:26the lemon.
16:27Yeah, he used to get it out.
16:29LAUGHTER
16:30Did you not think if they wanted to give you a lemon flavour
16:34for the chicken, they'd just include a bit of lemon?
16:36No, not the chicken places.
16:38Scotland, we've got not allowed actual fruit.
16:41LAUGHTER
16:42Now, we've been peering once again through your windows
16:46to see what you've been baking in the kitchens of Britain.
16:49Now, I'm not saying our viewers come up with some strange ideas,
16:52but Heather sent in a cat-based cake made for her daughter's birthday.
16:56A cute depiction, certainly, but in a less-than-appetising setting.
17:01LAUGHTER
17:02LAUGHTER
17:04Great!
17:06Don't you think those poos look enormous compared to the size
17:10of the cat?
17:12They're at half their body weight, aren't they?
17:15A bit of a palate cleanse now.
17:17Lily and Molly went to a Coldplay concert last month,
17:20but they didn't sing Molly's favourite song,
17:22Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall,
17:25so their mum made a cake based on the song instead.
17:28Here it is, complete with teardrops, a waterfall
17:32and a mini Chris Martin on top.
17:35Oh, I thought it was going to have that couple that got caught in the...
17:38LAUGHTER
17:39That would be much more iconic.
17:41Yeah. Yeah.
17:42Yeah, that's bad luck or good luck,
17:44depending on which side of the marriage you were on.
17:46LAUGHTER
17:48Next up, we have Sharon from Wales, who teamed up with her daughter
17:52to create a Hollywood-inspired cake for her son.
17:55Any guesses as to who's in Sharon's fridge?
17:58LAUGHTER
18:00Oh, no less.
18:01Peter Crouch? Peter...
18:03LAUGHTER
18:05Is it Nicolas Cage?
18:06It is Nicolas Cage.
18:07Yes! Well done.
18:08Nice to meet you.
18:09APPLAUSE
18:12Now, this week, we saw Toby making a Christmas-themed showstopper.
18:17Strangely, we've had an early Christmas-themed bake sent in to us
18:20from Nicky.
18:21She set out to make these delightful reindeer treats
18:24for her grandkids.
18:25Let's see what Nicky's lucky grandchildren
18:28were actually presented with.
18:30LAUGHTER
18:32LAUGHTER
18:37Rudolph the red-nosed, mad, staring-eyed reindeer.
18:41Erm, maybe go easy on the eggnog next time, Nicky.
18:45Finally, we have John, who decided to bake a version
18:48of the classic caterpillar cake for his daughter's 16th birthday.
18:52LAUGHTER
18:54That would all.
18:55If it was Colin the caterpillar's psychopathic twin,
18:58you were right, old John, you've done an excellent job.
19:01Keep your pictures coming in, use the hashtag
19:04extra slice or go to channel4.com forward slash takepart details below.
19:09Right, it's time, Tom, for you to get amongst our studio audience
19:13and dissect the bakes they've brought along.
19:16Over to you.
19:17Thanks, Joe.
19:19And I'm thrilled to be here with this week's studio audience baker.
19:23Let's start with Sarah and her husband, John.
19:26Where are they?
19:27Sarah and John, right in the middle there.
19:28Excuse me.
19:29Hello.
19:30Hello, hello, hello.
19:31Hello, Sarah.
19:32Hello.
19:33Hello.
19:34And John.
19:35Yes.
19:36Now, what have you brought here?
19:39What's this, Sarah?
19:40What is it?
19:41So, this is my little honesty box that I have at home
19:44at the end of my drive.
19:46This is Shmi, the dog, and this is where I sell my cakes.
19:50You have a little...
19:51Honesty box.
19:52Honesty box.
19:53Yeah.
19:54So, what does that mean?
19:55So, it means that I trust that people are going to come
19:57and pay for the cakes that they take out of the box.
20:00Sarah.
20:01Do they?
20:02They do.
20:03They're amazing.
20:04How do you know that they're paying for them?
20:05Oh, well, I...
20:06There's cameras.
20:07LAUGHTER
20:08I see.
20:09And also, there's a QR code for scanning.
20:12There's a QR code for people to scan if they want to pay online.
20:15Yeah.
20:16Have you ever thought about, I don't know, opening a shop?
20:19LAUGHTER
20:22Actually, that would just take away from the whole honesty thing.
20:25The honesty thing.
20:26So, in some ways, it's a test of how bad your community is.
20:31I see.
20:32And you've set up a QR code?
20:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:34And cameras?
20:35And cameras.
20:36Gosh.
20:37Imagine putting that much effort into an actual business job.
20:39LAUGHTER
20:40And they say the economy's flatlining.
20:41I can't think why.
20:42LAUGHTER
20:43Is there a lot of passing traffic where you are?
20:45Loads.
20:46Loads.
20:47Where do you live?
20:48Um, on the busiest road between...
20:51Folkestone and Hastings.
20:52Yeah.
20:53Oh.
20:548259.
20:55I can't tell people the address so they know it's going to...
20:57LAUGHTER
20:58Why not?
20:59Leave the keys to the house outside as well.
21:02LAUGHTER
21:03Please.
21:04I've got some jewellery by the bed if you want it.
21:06LAUGHTER
21:07I'm sure you'll use the QR code.
21:09LAUGHTER
21:10Bonnie and Clyde.
21:11So...
21:12LAUGHTER
21:13So that's...
21:14And how many cakes do you make a day?
21:16Um, well, I get up really early so...
21:18I didn't ask that.
21:19I said, how many cakes do you make a day?
21:21LAUGHTER
21:22I don't know.
21:23Would you not bother counting?
21:24That's the system.
21:25Get up early, make a few cakes, shove them in the shed.
21:28That's how I roll.
21:29Oh, thanks.
21:30Oh, 30p we made today, John.
21:32LAUGHTER
21:33What are these, though, Sarah?
21:34Are these one of the things you might put in your...
21:35OK, so...
21:36In your free shop?
21:37Yeah...
21:38Yes, yes.
21:39Because it's bread week, I actually got up really early this morning.
21:42Well, we know you like to get up early, Sarah.
21:44LAUGHTER
21:50Yes.
21:51No, no, so I...
21:52I needed to...
21:53I wanted to actually bring something for them,
21:55for all of you to try.
21:56Oh, well...
21:57Oh, that's so lovely.
21:58You can take it.
21:59What are they?
22:00So, they are sticky, toffee, cinnamon buns, with dates in them.
22:05Oh, that sounds lovely, doesn't it?
22:06That sounds lovely.
22:07Put your camera on, we're going to go up there with them now.
22:09OK.
22:10Let's see what everybody says.
22:12How much would you be expecting?
22:13How much would you be expecting for these cinnamon rolls?
22:16What do they go for?
22:17£2.50 to £3 each.
22:19Oh, that's very reasonable in this day and age, isn't it?
22:22Yeah, yeah.
22:23Ian, what do you think?
22:25It's unbelievable.
22:27I've got my...
22:28I can scan a QR code now if you need.
22:30LAUGHTER
22:31Oh, isn't he good?
22:32That's free.
22:33Oh, this one's for...
22:34Another one for free!
22:35LAUGHTER
22:36Natalie, Kael, what do you think?
22:38Absolutely delicious.
22:39Really nice.
22:41You should open a little shop.
22:42Yeah!
22:43Oh, no...
22:44You should get a job!
22:45LAUGHTER
22:47Well, that's wonderful.
22:48John, Sarah, thank you.
22:50That's been a huge success and good luck to you.
22:51It's a wonderful thing and very...
22:53Fills us all with hope, doesn't it?
22:54So, well done, Sarah, John.
22:55Well done.
22:56Very good to them.
22:57Very good.
22:58Now, Julia and husband Tom.
23:00Julia and Tom.
23:02Julia, husband Tom.
23:04Now, what is this?
23:06It's a carrot and apple cake with home-grown apples from the garden
23:09and on top I have painted a portrait of you as a scarecrow.
23:14LAUGHTER
23:16Oh, my goodness.
23:19APPLAUSE
23:21Julia, I've always wanted to be in The Wizard of Oz.
23:26Why the obsession with scarecrow?
23:28Well, I am part of a community group for our village
23:32and I helped to organise the Scarecrow Festival
23:35and it's actually at the end of this month.
23:37Oh, how very autumnal, how magical.
23:39And so, whereabouts is the village?
23:41It's called Stallinburgh.
23:42It's up north.
23:43Up north?
23:44You can say specifically where it is.
23:45Negrims.
23:46Negrimsby.
23:47OK, Lincolnshire, that way, is it?
23:48Yes.
23:49Lovely.
23:50What's it like in a village organising something like that?
23:52I bet it's fun, isn't it?
23:53What's the Facebook group like for the Scarecrow Festival?
23:56Usually for the Scarecrow Festival
23:58because I manage that one, that one's fine.
24:00Usually, yes.
24:01Yeah, no, that one's good.
24:02But then we have other groups, village as well and...
24:05What are they like?
24:06Not so great.
24:07Well, one's really good.
24:08I'm in that one and then I had to leave the other one.
24:10Oh!
24:11Yeah.
24:12Why did you have to leave?
24:13Just had a bit of an argument with the admin.
24:17You seem like a very argumentative person.
24:18No, I'm not really, but he wouldn't let the group,
24:21the page, be a part of the group.
24:24Oh, I see, classic Facebook nightmare, isn't it?
24:27Yeah.
24:28They wouldn't let the page be part of the group.
24:29Yeah.
24:30But why not?
24:31The Scarecrow page, they wouldn't allow to be part of the village group.
24:33Yeah.
24:34But why not?
24:35Surely this is the perfect thing to feature on the group.
24:36Well, the argument was that you weren't allowed to advertise on the group.
24:39And it's a Scarecrow festival, I can't imagine it's the most profitable thing.
24:42It's not, no.
24:43It's just a bit of fun.
24:44It's just a bit of fun, isn't it?
24:45But it's suddenly turning into the plot of Midsomer Murders.
24:50So then what happened?
24:51The admin wouldn't let you put the page on the group and you said,
24:53forget it.
24:54Yeah, I did, yeah.
24:55Did you?
24:56To the admin, you said, no, I won't be part of this anymore.
24:57Yeah, I just left the group.
24:58You just left the group.
24:59Do you see the admin of the Facebook group?
25:00No, he doesn't even live in the village.
25:02What?
25:03That's ridiculous.
25:04Where does the admin of this Facebook group...
25:06I don't know.
25:07No one knows?
25:08Maybe he has some sinister camera in Folkestone.
25:13Well, advertise it now.
25:14Go on, you tell...
25:15You stick it to them.
25:16It is on the 27th and 28th of September in Stalingro.
25:20In Stalingro?
25:21Yeah. In Lincolnshire?
25:22Yes.
25:23Yeah, take that!
25:24Take that!
25:26Great.
25:27OK, thank you.
25:28Yvonne.
25:29Where's Yvonne and friends?
25:30Yvonne?
25:31Yvonne, hi, nice to see you.
25:33And friends.
25:34And friends, Yvonne, hello, what's your name?
25:35Mabel.
25:36Mabel, lovely to see you.
25:37Angela.
25:38Angela, hi.
25:39Hi.
25:40Vera.
25:41Vera, lovely to see you.
25:42Now, I want to hear about this cake.
25:43What is it?
25:44It is based on an allotment theme.
25:47An allotment theme?
25:48Yeah.
25:49Oh, how beautiful.
25:50Do you like to grow vegetables?
25:52A little bit.
25:53I do try, but very unsuccessfully.
25:56So maybe my best option is to make the vegetables in a cake form.
25:59I think that's a great idea.
26:01And cake is so much nicer than boring old vegetables.
26:04But I heard a rumour that you have another job involving baking that you like to do.
26:09What is that?
26:10I bake on TikToks.
26:11Oh, I say.
26:12A TikTok baker.
26:13And so do you know about this?
26:14Do you know about this TikTok baking?
26:15Yes, we have to go live all the time to watch her bake.
26:18Don't mind me saying, you sounded a bit tired when you said that.
26:24Yeah, it is exhausting.
26:28So lovely to have such good friends, isn't it?
26:31Well, I wish you all the very best of luck and I'm sure your TikTok will continue to grow and grow.
26:37So thank you for bringing such a beautiful cake along and good luck with the growing vegetables.
26:40Lovely to see you.
26:41Lovely to see you as autumn friends.
26:43Now, Hannah and her mum, Sarah.
26:45Oh, hello, hello.
26:47You look a bit like Joanna Lumley.
26:49Oh, thanks.
26:50Hannah?
26:51Yeah.
26:52Hello.
26:53Mum, Sarah?
26:54Hello.
26:55Hello, hello.
26:56Now, this is very interesting.
26:57Hannah and a mum, Sarah, what have you brought here?
27:00It's a cake with Timothee Chalamet's face on it.
27:03Timothee Chalamet's face on it.
27:07Wow.
27:08And another cake with a picture on it.
27:10Gosh, how competitive.
27:12Oh, and Julia is very competitive.
27:14You should see her on the Facebook group.
27:16And what do you think about Timothee Chalamet?
27:18Do you like him?
27:19I can take him or leave him.
27:20He's a bit young.
27:24Mainstream.
27:25Mainstream.
27:26Mainstream.
27:27Mainstream?
27:28Wasn't he in, say, call me by your name?
27:31Yeah.
27:32It's hardly mainstream.
27:33Don't watch that.
27:34Don't watch that.
27:35Especially not when you're eating a peach.
27:39Who's your favourite baker in the tent?
27:42Oh.
27:43You don't watch Bake Off, do you?
27:44I do.
27:45No.
27:47Don't worry.
27:48No, don't worry.
27:49Don't worry.
27:50It's a bit mainstream.
27:51OK.
27:52Now...
27:53So, now...
27:54Right.
27:55Right.
27:56And now I've got the joyous job of announcing this week's star baker.
28:06Well, I wonder who it's going to be.
28:08I'm delighted to say this week's star baker is...
28:12Julia for creating that wonderful scarecrow cake.
28:18Julia.
28:20And now it's the part of my day that I really hate.
28:24Because I've now got to announce who will be leaving the studio.
28:27And it's Sarah, because she's doing that honesty box thing when she should have opened a business.
28:41But the great news is they each take away one of our extra slice wooden spoons.
28:46And if you'd like to bring a bake and join me here in the Studio of Dreams,
28:56then go to channel4.com forward slash take part.
28:59Details below.
29:01And a big thank you to all of our studio bakers.
29:10Thanks, Tom.
29:11Now, remember this?
29:13My husband is also called Paul and he also got grey hair.
29:17So it's kind of similar look and a little bit...
29:21Ch...ch...ch...ch...choppy?
29:24Join us after the break where we'll find out if poor man's husband really does bear any resemblance to Paul Hollywood.
29:33Back in a bit.
29:34Woo!
29:35Welcome back. I'm joined by Baker fans Ian Stirling, Natalie Cassidy and Kyle Smith-Bino.
29:53So her favourite floating restaurant may have sunk in real life, but her Showstopper tribute certainly rose to the occasion.
30:01It's time to welcome the latest baker to leave the tent, it's Poy Man!
30:05APPLAUSE
30:15Hello, welcome. Hello.
30:17It's great to have you here. Thank you.
30:19How's life been since you've returned to the real world?
30:22Still the real world?
30:24Yeah.
30:25Still there, yeah. Still there, yeah.
30:28And who have you kept in touch with mainly from the tent?
30:32Everyone really.
30:33Yeah, because we have our WhatsApp group.
30:36So we talk to each other all the time on the group.
30:38It's lovely, yeah.
30:40And I understand that you've had a bit of a breakaway WhatsApp group.
30:45Oh, the mature group.
30:46Yeah.
30:47You've got a bit mature, so we've got to have a mature group.
30:51Yeah.
30:52So you've got Lesley.
30:53Lesley.
30:54Leighton.
30:55Leighton.
30:56Nadia and me.
30:57Nadia, do your hair for you?
30:58Oh, my God, yes.
30:59Well, what do you think?
31:00Lovely.
31:01Beautiful.
31:02She did the highlights, yeah.
31:06I went to Liverpool to see her and then I taught her how to make Chinese food, yeah.
31:11I loved it.
31:12It's beautiful.
31:13Yeah.
31:14Now, you were the tense comeback kid, weren't you?
31:16Because after disastrous technical, you'd pull it out of the bag with your showstopper
31:20like your wedding-themed sweetbread.
31:23I mean, how stunning was that?
31:25I thought it tastes great.
31:27I like it.
31:28I thought it tastes really nice.
31:30Weddings are your area of expertise because you're a bridal designer.
31:35Yes.
31:36Natalie, Sonia wore an iconic bridesmaid dress in EastEnders, didn't she?
31:40Yeah.
31:41It's lovely.
31:42Yeah?
31:43Yeah.
31:44With the trumpet.
31:45Yeah.
31:46Yeah.
31:47You should wear that.
31:48Yeah.
31:49I'm going to...
31:50Another day.
31:51Yeah.
31:52I'm going to leave it there, actually.
31:53Yeah.
31:54Yeah.
31:55Now, even though you were struggling in the doughnut technical, when Alison suggested
32:00you just have a sneaky peek at what the other bakers were doing, you refused.
32:04Right at the back, you can see what everyone else is doing.
32:07I don't cheat.
32:08You never cheated at school?
32:09No.
32:10Not once?
32:11Never cheated.
32:12No.
32:13Because I don't cheat.
32:14I loved you for that.
32:15You were so honest.
32:16Yeah.
32:17Oh, too honest.
32:18Oh.
32:19Now, Poiman, we must mention your incredible time capsule showstopper, the jumbo boat floating
32:27restaurant in Hong Kong.
32:29That must have been a really proud moment for you.
32:32Um...
32:33Not really?
32:34Because I knew I could do it.
32:35Yeah.
32:36You must have been really pleased with it, though.
32:37Very pleased, yeah.
32:38Yeah.
32:39So, Poiman, now, we know you're a big fan of Paul.
32:41Yeah.
32:42Yeah.
32:43I found some unseen footage that shows you tried every trick in the book to win him over.
32:52Here he is, judging your signature in Biscuit Week.
32:55Tell us all about your biscuits.
32:57Um, the colour is Liverpool colour.
32:59You'll go a long way in the tent.
33:04Yeah.
33:05Oh, dear.
33:06Oh, dear.
33:07Oh, dear.
33:08Now, you also mentioned as well that Paul had some things in common with your husband.
33:14Oh, dear.
33:15So, um...
33:16Yeah, let's see if you're right, because we have a photo of your husband also called Paul.
33:21Oh.
33:24You've got a tape.
33:26Has he got blue eyes, your husband, as well?
33:29No.
33:30Oh.
33:31Shame.
33:32He's disappointed you.
33:33Well...
33:34My husband got blinded.
33:35I've asked him to tie them, but he refuses.
33:37Contact lenses.
33:38Contact lenses.
33:39All right.
33:40Let's have some questions from the audience now.
33:43Tom, over to you.
33:44OK, Jo.
33:46Now, what's your name?
33:47Hilary.
33:48Hilary, hi.
33:49Hi, darling.
33:50Lovely blinds.
33:51Um...
33:52Hilary, what's your question for Poiman?
33:57Um...
33:58Hi, Poiman.
33:59Hi.
34:00If you have something, again, that you made on the show so that you could do it better,
34:04which one would it be?
34:05What do you want a second chance with?
34:07A redemption bake.
34:08Yeah.
34:09A redemption bake.
34:10Maybe the biscuits.
34:11Signature biscuits.
34:12Ah.
34:13Yes.
34:14Because my original design was much better than that.
34:16Are you pleased with that answer?
34:17I am very pleased.
34:18Good.
34:19Yeah, no, it's enough, Hilary.
34:20Sorry, sorry, sorry.
34:21Now, who else has got a question for Poiman?
34:24Hello.
34:25What's your name?
34:26Malaika.
34:27Malaika, nice to see you.
34:28Malaika, what's your question for Poiman?
34:29Um, if you had stayed in the competition, what week would you have really looked forward
34:34to doing?
34:35Oh.
34:36Rub it in, why don't you?
34:38If I stay in the competition, I think I would like to do the, um, the final.
34:47LAUGHTER
34:52Excellent.
34:53Excellent answer.
34:54Thank you very much.
34:55One more question.
34:56Hello, what's your name?
34:57Alex.
34:58Alex, that's nice.
35:00What's your question?
35:01What's the happiest occasion you've had to bake something for?
35:05I think for my children, or the birthday for my children.
35:12Very nice.
35:13Oh, that's a nice happy answer.
35:15You were worried there wasn't going to be an answer there.
35:17You were all quite tense for a moment, Poiman.
35:19I was worried it was going to be a funeral.
35:20Oh, no, yes.
35:21The hesitation.
35:22That would be unusual, though, wouldn't it?
35:23A cake at a funeral.
35:24Uh, some people celebrate life.
35:26Some people celebrate life.
35:27That's true, Alex.
35:28What a profound way to end this section.
35:33And back to you, Jo.
35:35Thank you, Tom.
35:36Now, Poiman, Kael has a question for you about proving drawers.
35:42What's a proving drawer?
35:44Um, I don't have one, I don't know, but...
35:48LAUGHTER
35:49Hold on.
35:50Hold on.
35:51I don't know at home, but when I was in the tent,
35:56and then I knew.
35:58Oh!
35:59LAUGHTER
36:00So it's lower than the oven, but you can set, like,
36:04um, room temperature, for example.
36:06Oh, I've got you.
36:07So we put...
36:08You've not got a room.
36:09LAUGHTER
36:10It was quite cold.
36:12Of course, yeah.
36:13And then all our butter was solid, but we need to leave it
36:17in room temperature in the proofing drawer.
36:19Mm-hm.
36:20Then the butter will become room temperature butter.
36:22Is that enough information for you?
36:24Yeah, I want one now.
36:25And I think you'll find you only a fiver.
36:27I do, I owe you a fiver.
36:28LAUGHTER
36:29Oh, marvellous.
36:30Sorry.
36:31This is the worst thing you've done on this shirt.
36:33LAUGHTER
36:35Um, now, we saw how much shirt you like to paint on rocks
36:39and leave them in the countryside.
36:41When did you start doing this?
36:43During lockdown, so I thought, um...
36:45I saw everyone start to doing something like this
36:49or go for a walk in the forest, and then I thought,
36:51oh, that's quite nice.
36:52Now, if you were going to paint a rock, Ian,
36:54and leave it in the forest, what would you put on it?
36:56Um, I would just write, I know what you did.
36:59LAUGHTER
37:01Now, um, one of the key skills needed in Bread Week was timing.
37:06So here's a quick test for our panel.
37:08Would you help me with this?
37:10Um, it's called, I'm Bready.
37:13BUZZER
37:17As you can see, our three guests have state-of-the-art
37:20proving ovens on their heads.
37:22LAUGHTER
37:23But how good are they at judging how much time has passed?
37:26Ian, Natalie and Kael will count for what they judge
37:30to be exactly 30 seconds, and when they think time's up,
37:34they'll have to open their proving drawer and shout,
37:36I'm Bready, OK?
37:38LAUGHTER
37:39So you're poised, ready to time them.
37:42How do you fancy your chances, anybody?
37:44I can count to 30.
37:46LAUGHTER
37:48Natalie.
37:49I'll have a go, Jo, I'm so... I'm sweating in here.
37:51All right, OK.
37:53Kael, are you confident?
37:55I'm going to smash this.
37:56OK, marvellous.
37:57Right.
37:58Ready, set, prove!
38:01This bit's fun, innit?
38:06LAUGHTER
38:07I'm just trying to put them off.
38:13Feels like half an hour already, doesn't it?
38:15LAUGHTER
38:16I'm... I... Say it.
38:29Say it.
38:30I'm Bready!
38:31I'm Bready!
38:33LAUGHTER
38:34You're looking at me like...
38:35Impressive!
38:37APPLAUSE
38:40Well, thankfully, someone was recording it as well.
38:46So, first of all, I have to say, Kyle, you were disqualified
38:50for not shouting, I'm Bready.
38:52LAUGHTER
38:54And unfortunately, you would have been bang on 30 seconds.
38:58APPLAUSE
39:00Do you know why I would have been bang on 30?
39:02Why?
39:03Because I cheated.
39:04LAUGHTER
39:05Did you look at your what?
39:06You little cheister!
39:08LAUGHTER
39:09APPLAUSE
39:11So, you've been disqualified twice.
39:14LAUGHTER
39:16You were Bready at 36 seconds.
39:18You were Bready at 39 seconds.
39:20So, Natalie, you're the winner.
39:22CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
39:24APPLAUSE
39:27Do you approve of Kyle cheating?
39:30No.
39:31No.
39:32What?!
39:33I haven't got watch.
39:34She didn't even use her watch and she was the timekeeper.
39:37LAUGHTER
39:39Right.
39:40Hoy Man, stay with us because Tom's on his way with a special gift
39:43for you.
39:44Plus, Ian, Natalie and Kyle will face our Extra Slice Celebrity Challenge.
39:50Back in a bit.
39:51APPLAUSE
39:57Welcome back.
39:58I'm joined by Ian Sterling, Natalie Cassidy, Kyle Smith-Bino and Bake Off's very own Poy Man.
40:10CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
40:12Right, it's that time where we get an exclusive look at a top celebrity's kitchen
40:18as well as various bits of their body and you have to see if you can work out who it is.
40:22It's Ian and Poy Man versus Natalie and Kyle.
40:26So, time for this week's Mystery Star Baker.
40:29MUSIC PLAYS
40:44Feel free to think aloud and talk us through anything.
40:47With this shirt I was thinking Noel Edmonds.
40:54Think not far off.
40:56Oh, I think I know.
40:57I think I know.
40:58Don't tell us yet.
40:59Banana slip.
41:00So, comedy, moustache.
41:02Yeah, comedy.
41:03I know who it is.
41:04I know who it is.
41:05I know who it is.
41:06Ding.
41:07I'm ready.
41:08LAUGHTER
41:09APPLAUSE
41:15You don't think you know who it is.
41:16Yeah.
41:17You think you know who it is.
41:18Say it at exactly the same time.
41:20OK, yeah.
41:21OK.
41:22Ready?
41:23Three, two, one.
41:24Paul Shuckle.
41:25Oh, well done.
41:26Both of you got it right.
41:27APPLAUSE
41:28Let's have a look.
41:29APPLAUSE
41:32Yay!
41:33Well done.
41:34How on earth did you both get that?
41:36It was the shirts.
41:37I thought it's going to be a Noel Edmonds or something like that
41:41and then, yeah, the banana skin slip gave me it.
41:43Banana skin, didn't it?
41:44Yeah.
41:45Now, Point Man, the moment has arrived.
41:47It's Tom with his trolley.
41:48APPLAUSE
41:57Hello.
41:58Hello.
41:59Hello, Point Man.
42:00Now, if you had to say what the best thing was about your time
42:03on Bake Off, what would you say?
42:05The best time I made the jumbo bowls biscuits.
42:09Oh, yes.
42:10Yeah, I loved it.
42:11Yeah.
42:12Point Man, I'm afraid it is time to say goodbye.
42:15If only you'd forced yourself to break the habit of a lifetime
42:18and cheat!
42:20Oh, goodness knows I've cheated loads.
42:22How else do you think I got this job?
42:24It's supposed to be Rob Rinder stood here.
42:27LAUGHTER
42:29You may be out of the competition, but we all know you've got your own
42:33even better Paul waiting at home.
42:36Am I right, Point Man?
42:38What a guy!
42:39It's been wonderful watching you in the tent.
42:42So, thank you so much, Point Man, for being part of this year's Bake Off.
42:46Oh, thank you.
42:47APPLAUSE
42:48Thank you very much, Tom.
42:49And now, Point Man, let's take a look back at your time in the tent.
42:56I am here!
42:58Just get on with it!
43:00It proves the Swiss roll, it'd be that one.
43:02I like the decoration.
43:04I think it's delicious.
43:05Have a little dance.
43:07It's quite intricate.
43:08Have you managed to do it in the time?
43:10No.
43:11Never.
43:12They're like little fairy cakes, aren't they?
43:14They look disgusting!
43:17Oh!
43:18I'm measured by eye.
43:19Oh, too big.
43:20It has been an amazing experience to bake in the tent.
43:24Oh, isn't that beautiful?
43:25Wow.
43:26And I'm still very proud of myself to achieve this.
43:30That's been baked beautifully.
43:31Really nice and a powerful coconut flavour.
43:34And I like the cherries.
43:36I am part of the Bake Off family now, so I'm very happy.
43:46So, Tom, if you'd like to reveal all...
43:48APPLAUSE
43:49That's really insightful.
43:50So, there you are, Poi Man, holding a painted rock with your beautiful coconut sweetbread and sensational Jumbo Boat Time capsule.
44:07Let's hope it doesn't sink.
44:09Poi Man, everybody!
44:12APPLAUSE
44:18So, it's time to round off with the Extra Slice Celebrity Challenge.
44:23Let's find out what they'll be taking on.
44:25It's over to the Selectatron.
44:27APPLAUSE
44:36And your challenge is Donut Dangle.
44:39As you can see, you're all hooked up to our doughnut dangling device.
44:45So, the higher you get your foot, the closer you'll get your doughnut to your mouth.
44:49Whoever manages to take a bite of their doughnut first wins.
44:54Have you all been in training for this?
44:56No.
44:57OK.
44:58Right.
44:59Ready, steady, dangle your doughnuts!
45:03Oh, like a dancer you were there.
45:06Oh, very good, Natalie.
45:09Hang on.
45:10Uh...
45:11I need to get some nose in a little bit.
45:15Oh, that is good.
45:17I like the technique, Natalie.
45:19That's it.
45:20Give it a big hand.
45:21That's it.
45:23That's it.
45:28Oh!
45:29Oh!
45:30Oh!
45:31Nearly.
45:32Oh, Kyle!
45:33Oh!
45:34Oh!
45:35Oh!
45:36Oh!
45:37Oh!
45:38Well done.
45:39Yes!
45:40And let's see the winning moment in a slow-motion replay.
45:46LAUGHTER
45:47And the winner is Kyle!
46:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
46:01And I'm delighted to say he didn't even cheat.
46:05So...
46:06That's it for this week.
