Also Can't Wait

squoosh I was waiting for you to say that now I know we are truly in the GBBO swing!

[Waltermittythesequel]

Yes, I thought I'd missed it too amble.

I'm more relieved than I should be that I haven't!

[ArmySal]

I'm so excited, can't wait for it

[SapphireStrange]

I think the only reason they do it in summer is so that they can have the 'fete' at the end outdoors. although it sometimes looks a bit cold and windswept anyway

[Waltermittythesequel]

Yy.
I wonder if it'll be indoors now.

[ImYourMama]

This is the perfect pregnancy TV, no alcohol involved, very easy watching and inspiration for what to make when I'm on Mat Leave

[MiddleClassProblem]

No alcohol? Isn't that how you get the Berry vote

[Jasonandyawegunorts]

no alcohol involved

Remember when dame edna was on it?

[SapphireStrange]

That was the sleb one, though. All bets are off on those.

[ImYourMama]

Cooking with booze is fine, all the actual alcohol burns off, show me the mojito macaroons

[LemonBreeland]

I love GBBO. I also loved Howard custardgate. But my best moment was Kathryn, 'I can't serve Mary Berry green carpet!'

[IHaveBrilloHair]

Lemon
Dd and I still hoot with laughter at that, it was our favourite series.
Does anyone know if there's somewhere I can find out what the theme of each episode is so I can plan food in advance.

[MiddleClassProblem]

The bake off BBC website releases it week by week. It says of the first week:
The group first take on a British classic and are then faced with Mary's technical challenge - a popular little cake with a fatless sponge and tricky chocolate work. Finally, the bakers have the opportunity to show the judges what they can do with their showstopper.

The first weeks are usually cakes/bread/biscuits I think

[LemonRedwood]

No, sorry, make that cake/biscuits/bread

MiddleClass's link shows the episodes from the previous series and it's been that for the first three weeks for the past few years.

[MiddleClassProblem]

My link is for series 7, this series

[IHaveBrilloHair]

Thanks, I'll assume it's cakes first then.

[SapphireStrange]

My system says the first week is cake week.

CAN'T WAIT.

[LemonRedwood]

MiddleClass I clicked on episodes at the top and it had all previous series there.

[MiddleClassProblem]

Yup, because that's a like to previous episodes. The page it's on is this series week one. Only need to click on show more for more under the text for series 7 ep 1. You do t need to click to any other pages...

[MiddleClassProblem]

*don't

[LemonRedwood]

I know Middle, I was only referring to your link as to where I'd checked my info as to it being cake then biscuits then bread. This is what they've done consistently for a few years.

[MiddleClassProblem]

Oh ok, I thought you meant it was just old eps and couldn't find the series 7 bit x

[LemonRedwood]

Sorry, I didn't explain very clearly in my first post!
