Ostrich riding isn't for everyone

Ostrich riding isn't for everyone

Author: Bake With A Legend September 22, 2021 Duration: 46:42

The wait is no more, as Paul, Prue, Matt and Noel were back on our screens to kick us off with what we're certain will be ten joyous weeks of baking. Fair to say we had a real mix of baking going on in the tent, but from 19 year old Freya to 70 year old Maggie, there's a wonderful cross section of British society represented and everyone will no doubt soon have their favourites - we all do.


Founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy is joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on cake week as Series 12 got off to a flyer with some brilliant personalities as the episode saw great humour and all the drama we love to see in the Tent.


Here at Bake With A Legend is that not only are we still having great fun hosting regular online baking classes every weekend, but this year we are going to be teaching a virtual class of either the signature or the technical challenge EVERY SUNDAY at 5pm UK following the episode, starting with Jane teaching Malt Loaf on Sunday. So, to take your enjoyment of the series to a new level, you can sign up for all 10 classes at a special price or you can sign up class by class. Places are limited!

Ever find yourself rewatching scenes from the latest Bake Off, wishing you could dissect the technical challenge with someone who’s actually been there? That’s the feeling The Bake Down-Bake Off Reviewed captures each week. Host Sarah Taylor doesn’t just recap the episode; she’s joined by former tent veterans Howard Middleton, Dan Beasley-Harling, and Jane Beedle, all alumni of the show. Together, they unpack the drama, the soggy bottoms, and the stunning showstoppers with a unique perspective only former contestants can provide. This podcast, brought to you by Bake With A Legend, feels like eavesdropping on a warm, insightful, and often very funny conversation between friends who truly get it. You’ll hear their genuine reactions, behind-the-scenes insights into the pressures of the tent, and personal anecdotes that shed new light on the bakes. It’s the perfect companion for anyone who watches the show and immediately wants to talk about it, offering the inside track on the judges’ comments, the contestants’ strategies, and the tiny details you might have missed.
