Celebrity Bake Off: What time charity special on tonight and who is taking part?
The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer is kicking off tonight, with a batch of famous faces showing off their skills.
Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith have got their work cut out for them in the series, as stars including Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall and Star Wars favourite Daisy Ridley attempt to impress them.
Matt Lucas will be hosting the series solo, with co-star Noel Fielding skipping the five-part charity special.
The presenter was unable to film while on paternity leave, following the birth of his second child with girlfriend Lliana Bird.
Noel is missing out, but who else will we see in the tent this year?
Who is taking part on Celebrity Bake Off tonight?
The charity special begins tonight, with Tom Allen switching things up from co-host to baker.
His baking skills will be facing some stiff competition, going up against fellow comedian Rob Beckett, X Factor icon Alexandra Burke and Daisy Ridley.
They haven’t been given an easy time of it, and will be serving up millionaire shortbread and a fruity tart in the signature and technical challenges.
As well as this, they’ll be whipping up their pet hates in cake form in the showstopper.
Eyes peeled for that one…
