Will he say more at 8pm or can I watch GBBO in peace?!

[november90]

Just watched the commons speech... pub and restaurant closure at 10... masks compulsory..... will he add much more?

No, that's all. He has to announce all measures to the House first, I believe.

There shouldn't be any more, enjoy GBBO

@ShellsAndSunrises

No, that's all. He has to announce all measures to the House first, I believe.

Has anyone told him that? Because it’s not how he’s operated thus far.

He will just use more fluffy language ‘we must beat this virus’ ‘lockdown will happen if we don’t follow these restrictions’ ‘follow the science’ ‘rule of 6’ ‘together we can beat this’ ‘protect our NHS’ blah blah so you can watch GBBO in peace

GBBO is going to be delayed anyway until the PM statement is finished, apparently

Oven ready covid response

sheesh not against Bake Off ?! yet more piffle. We have had 2 televised broadcasts in the last 2 days already.

Unless he is coming up with a proper safe plan for schools and vulnerable people associated with them. That would be worth missing Bake Off for.

We aren't going out anywhere anyway. We are all waiting inside for the fucking result of DC's fucking home test. The results were supposed to all be back within 24 hours weren't they??!!

GBBO is the only thing I have had to look forward to for months. They had better not delay it for BJ. I won't be watching BJ in any case so what's the point. I don't need to be patronised with dumbed down analogies and rhetoric - I need to watch smiley people make cakes.

Watch GBBO in peace you can always read a summary or watch announcement on BBC iPlayer afterwards if you feel so inclined!

Or record GBBO and start watching once he has finished in peace

@WhatWouldJKRDo

Yes the speaker warned Matt Hancock about it last week.

Yes, apparantly Bake Off won't start until the announcement is finished.

Hold on now..... The really important thing here - there's a new series of bake off?????? Well that's my evening sorted !

OP you can watch a summary of what the PM is going to say here

GBBO is delayed by 15 mins because Channel 4 is showing BoJo. So we can see both! Know which one I prefer!

Bloomin heck! My toddler and baby didn't go to sleep until gone 9 so I missed both 😅
