2013 Great British Bake Off & PRESENTER FITE

(or gaz top and gilbert the alien)

I'm secretly hoping for Adam & Joe, but this won't happen.

Emma Forbes & Jayne Middlemiss (seeing as Mel & Sue were big on C4 20 years ago).

has a topical back-to-the-early-70s vibe also

adam and joe would be great too! we're going to be so disappointed when it ends up being dermot o'leary and melinda messenger

My serious suggestion that I made on Twitter if they wanted to maintain the air of a lovely WI baking contest with a bit of wit and charm was Richard Coles in the Mel & Sue role.

gok wan and alan carr clearly the result of panicking c4 execs checking the filing cabinets for presenters still under contract then picking two out of a hat

could just as easily have been kirstie allsopp and nick hewer

or sketch out of tattoo fixers and the french guy from first dates

Dave Lamb voiceover, Davina presenting. Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer eating cakes. Sorted.

Or a Dave Lamb/George Lamb double whammy of Lambs. That's probably the sort of thing they'd do.

It's unlikely to be Ruby Tandoh anyway: http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2016-09-22/former-bake-off-contestant-ruby-tandoh-has-made-it-very-clear-where-she-stands-on-paul-hollywood-moving-to-channel-4

reminded me of naked chef :(

reminded me of keith chegwin's naked game show on channel five :(

technically keith was not without clothes

i really don't think headwear counts as clothing in this context tbh

failed joke :(

sorry

My favourite thing in Bake Off history was 2014 winner Nancy referring to Paul Hollywood as "the male judge" because she couldn't remember his name. It still makes me lol.

Ein Volk, ein Reich, two eggs and some sugar and you should have the perfect Black Forest gateau.

Who knew the Beeb had a black ops department?

Bake Off: Paul Hollywood in Nazi outfit apology

The 51-year-old said the pictures dated from 2003, when he went to a New Year's Eve party as a character from the 1980s WW2-set BBC comedy series 'Allo 'Allo.

Surely no-one in Allo Allo ever wore a swastika.

Googling 'british people wearing nazi outfit' brings up this faq-like article about the subject. Its very existence and dry take on the question amuses me.

It's a bit nothing isn't it

I'm sure it will just piss by.
