British Bake Off Cheat Bake Off Fans Accuse Rahul Mandal of CHEATING As They Spot Him Decorating His Cake After Time Was Up british bake off cheat Bake Off fans accuse Rahul Mandal of CHEATING as they spot him decorating his cake after time was up. GREAT British Bake Off fans have accused Rahul Mandal of CHEATING after spotting he decorated his cake after time was up. Channel 4 viewers spied the determined baker add the finishing touches to his Showstopper after hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig had announced time was up. One said: "#BakeOff Rahul cheating, decorating his cake after time’s up as he walks up with it! #cheater." Another added: "#bakeoff Rahul keeps working after the time's up every time #cheat." Someone else added: "The time had finished yet Rahul was still putting decorations on top of his cake! Seriously!! "I used to like him and root for him to win but not anymore! So tilted and stacked for him to win. #GBBO.'" Despite some controversy on Twitter, Rahul made it through to the final alongside Kim-Joy and Ruby. It was the end of the road for Briony Williams, who struggled to hold back her tears after being booted out of a mishap-filled Patisserie week. The Bristol native, 33, said: "I'm sad to not be going through but so happy with how far I've come in so many ways. What an experience. "I still love baking. I love it more than ever! I don't often say I'm proud of myself, but I am." The final of the Channel 4 series, which airs next Tuesday, will see Ruby, Rahul and Kim-Joy take on a task outside of the iconic marquee, in a big twist for the 2018 series.

The final four, from way back in series two: Janet, Holly, Mary-Anne and Joanne, with hosts Mel and Sue. Photograph: Amanda Searle/BBC/Love Productions/Amanda Sear. First published on Tue 7 Oct 2014 15.58 BST. The fifth series of The Great British Bake Off comes to its thrilling conclusion on Wednesday, with Richard, Luis and Nancy scrapping it out for the title. But now that the Bake Off has reached berserk new heights of popularity, it’s time for a moment of reflection. Over the years, 60 amateur bakers have exposed themselves to the show’s trademark whirlwind of challenges and bunting and smut, but which of them have stood the test of time? Here is my definitive list of all of them, ranked from worst to best. You may disagree with this list, but you’d be wrong. The cast of series two.

Janet Basu (S2) 25. Beca Lyne-Pirkis (S4) 24. Nancy Birtwhistle (S5) 23. Ruth Clemens (S1) 22. Iain Watters (S5) 21. Glenn Cosby (S4) 20. Holly Bell (S2) Almost won the competition in 2011. Thank goodness she didn’t – her loss is the world of mealworm-based baking’s gain. 19. Howard Middleton (S4) Before there was the Bincident, there was Custardgate – the shocking moment when another contestant accidentally used Howard’s custard in a trifle. Did Howard throw his trifle in the bin and storm off? No, he kept calm and carried on. Churchill would have been proud. 18. Kimberley Wilson (S4) Some would say that Kimberley was the rightful winner of the 2013 category. I will not comment on the matter, except to say that she definitely was. 17. Jonathan Shepherd (S1) A man so utterly in tune with Bake Off that people in St Albans now simply refer to him as Mr Pudding. Cut him and he bleeds custard. Probably. Don’t cut him. 16. Norman Calder (S5) Norman Calder … he is us. Photograph: Mark Bourdillon/BBC/Love Productions/Mark Bourdi. Poor Norman made an enemy of Paul Hollywood – largely because of his bland, barely-cooked dishes – but his attitude almost single-handedly represented why the Bake Off is so popular. He was terrible, but he was enthusiastic. He was us. 15. Sarah-Jane Willis (S3) Not just a vicar’s wife, but the loveliest vicar’s wife who ever lived. Basically the living embodiment of the Great British Bake Off. 14. Diana Beard (S5) Not here because she knackered a fellow competitor’s baked alaska. Here because she knackered a fellow competitor’s baked alaska, then dropped the mic on the whole series and walked away forever (she says otherwise, but that’s how I like to see it). She’s the lone gunman. The woman’s got balls. 13. James Morton (S3) James Morton – a damp-mouthed man-boy comprised of approximately 95% Fair Isle – certainly looked like a cartoon that a dating site for very sensitive women would use on its homepage, but it’s his obsessive attention to detail that sticks in the mind. 12. Jordan Cox (S5) Jordan only lasted for three weeks in this year’s Bake Off, but his Monster Attack biscuit structure will live forever. This is largely because it looked like the sort of nightmare a three-year-old would have if you deliberately overfed it sugar, but with even more blood. Astonishing. 11. Cathryn Dresser (S3) Subject of one of the all-time great Bake Off switcheroos. Right from the start, everyone expected Cathryn to win. Then, with a flick of the wrist, she almost took out another competitor with a ball of clumsily handled dough, and her time was up. 10. Rob Billington (S2) Rob was one of the most seminal contestants in Bake Off history. The first series, to some extent, came and went unnoticed. But when Rob – floppy-haired and dreamy-eyed enough to make 9/10ths of the audience involuntarily lactate – came on the scene, the show was on the map. No, he wasn’t a particularly skilled baker. Yes, he was almost supernaturally clumsy. But Rob’s presence alone automatically opened the floodgates and caused the deluge of twee-looking boys in lovely jumpers that was series three. Arguably the Bake Off’s patient zero. 9. Chetna Makan (S5) In most normal circumstances, Chetna would be granted this high ranking for her brilliant hair alone. However, she also happened to be my pick to win this year’s series. Unfortunately, Chetna was eliminated in last week’s semi-final. Who can say why she left? Officially the reason is that she only baked 17 layers of that ridiculous 20-layer German grill-cake task, although there’s a good chance that she simply threw herself on her sword after hearing everyone around her continue to mispronounce the word “baklava” so egregiously. Either way, who could blame her? 8. Brendan Lynch (S3) He may not have won his series, but Brendan was undoubtedly the beating heart of 2012. Although a finalist, his defining moment didn’t really have anything to do with food. It came during an exterior interview in the final. Brendan looked around, saw the impossible calibre of his competitors and his own extraordinary accomplishments over the previous few weeks, and stared off into the distance, eyes quivering. The camera couldn’t move away from him.

Maddie Scarlett questions the success of Bake Off’s move from the BBC to Channel 4 Tuesday 31 October 2017 Image: Channel 4 Now, we’ve been subjected to many disturbing and upsetting changes these past couple of years. I find myself asking: “Where is the world heading?” “Where is Britain heading?” “Why do I now have to press four on my remote to watch The Great British Bake Off?”. I am not alone in asking this, hundreds of thousands of people tweeted about the channel change last year. The baking paradise which had ma de its cosy home within the beloved British Broadcasting Corporation was being uprooted and, not only that (!), it was being stolen by the experimental and rebellious Channel 4. As an enthusiastic groupie for the show, I too was taken aback – however, after reading the initial coverage and opinion articles it became clear that the format of the show wasn’t going to be affected. Channel 4 had a ready packaged audience, whom it would be unwise to upset, and the same production team were making it – it might not be that bad? August 2017: adverts began to appear, bunting was being tied, and finally biscuit-crunch time was on the horizon. The public still considered the move a disaster and with protesting aplomb, baking equipment had been firmly stored at the backs of cupboards since last year.

  • Muslim Edition Contributors
    STEREOTYPES STUDY MUSLIM EDITION CONTRIBUTORS ASAD DHUNNA VASUDHA SRINIVASAN SIMRAN MAINI-HOSKINS CHRIS PEARCE SEIKO ANGELO DAVID PARKE COLEMAN PARKES MOVING FOREWORD Brands are embracing diversity. We see noble attempts. ‘LGBT’ steering groups. ‘BAME’ committees. These go part of the way, but for company leaders and marketers trying to get it right, relying on broad brush segmentations and internal groups isn’t working. That’s why we created the Stereotype Study. Each study will focus on a specific minority group and break it down to provide a valuable resource to anyone who wants to improve their understanding of the world and their work. In this, our first, we delve into the habits of Muslims and highlight how brands can actually understand a market that consists of over 3.4 million people that is worth £20.5 billion in the UK. We have surveyed 1,000 Muslim people in the UK to delve into their lives and uncover habits. The results are surprising to say the least. Embracing diversity effectively is an art and a science. A well-considered strategy requires having the right voices at the table who can point out the nuances and the understanding of the different markets that create diversity. That’s what we provide at The Unmistakables. If you want to find out more, drop me a line: [email protected]. Asad Dhunna, Founder, The Unmistakables 1 WHY WE’RE HERE Generation Z (Gen Z) is starting to enter the workforce.

    TEXT A is an infographic offering details about ‘The Great British Bake Off’. TEXT B is a page from the official website of Mary Berry, a British celebrity cook. TEXT C is a feature page from ‘It’s Nice That’, a creative inspiration website. Illustration: We interview the artist behind the Great British Bake Off, Tom Hovey Words by Liv Siddall, Friday 01 November 2013 If, like me, your frown’s been upside down ever since the last episode of middle class cat-nip The Great British Bake Off drew to a sunshine-infused close, then DO NOT FEAR! Here we have Tom Hovey, a very talented freelance illustrator, animator and the artist behind those trademark Bake Off illustrations. Tom’s very kindly answered some questions for us today, so without further ado, ready, steady bake! Tell us in a line or two what you do and why you enjoy it I’m an illustrator and animator. I draw everything from blue neon unicorns to Mary Berry’s buns. How did you land the job for The Great British Bake Off? Serendipity I guess. I moved to London in 2009 with no job lined up and only a few illustration gigs to pay the bills. A mate got me a job working in the edit on a new amateur baking competition for BBC2. I was in the edit suite with the editor and series director when they were discussing adding animated illustrations to the show. I pitched for it and got the gig, four years later I’m still doing it! What was the brief like? The brief was simply to echo the homely and nostalgic aesthetic of the show.
