We're talking the biscuit this week as we digest the week that was in the tent. One of the hardest themes, we talk tough challenges and asking other bakers for help when you're in need. We bid farewell to a young man who charmed us even with such a short time in the tent whilst the bookies early favourite shows us why she could be the one to watch in 2019.


Howard and Jane also answer your questions - we find out who does the washing up and which other Bake Off Stars around the world have been adding Howard on Facebook.
