Season 16 of The Great British Bake Off is here, arriving on Netflix every Friday in the U.S.
Judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith return with hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond.
Fans were gutted after Hasan’s week-one elimination and took to Instagram in a show of support.
Here at Delish, we’re all about soggy bottoms and strong opinions, which is perfect, because The Great British Bake Off is back with Season 16 and a fresh tent of home bakers.
Judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith return alongside hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond, and U.S. viewers can catch new episodes on Netflix every Friday until its finale on October 7 (they air three days earlier in the U.K.). One episode in, the pressure is on, and the vibes are already emotional. Week one’s elimination—Hasan, after Cake Week—has fans in their feelings.
“I wish they would let everyone stay week one,” one viewer wrote, suggesting a trial run should be implemented to shake off nerves. Another added, “Loved the first episode. Felt so bad for Hasan… Maybe they should do a series with all the first bakers eliminated.” The sentiment was pretty universal: “I don’t think any first week leaver has been more loved…,” and “It made me sad to see him go… Each new group absolutely makes me feel like they could be my new besties.”
That’s the Bake Off effect: you spend 60 minutes watching strangers whisk genoise and glue together cakes with buttercream, and suddenly you’re invested, as if it’s two Americans facing off at the US Open. Season 16 has already delivered warmth, wobbles, and by the end of hour one, we’re already looking to adopt half the cast.
Consider us seated. Set your timer for next Friday.
