Bake Off: An Extra Slice | Preview (Channel 4)

Jo Brand and Tom Allen return for a brand new series of Bake Off: An Extra Slice, joined each week by the eliminated baker and a panel of celebrity fans.

Over the next 10 weeks, 12 of the best amateur bakers in Britain will whisk, knead, ice, beat and bake their way through classic British cakes, perfect patisserie, Italian delights, sticky caramel constructions and elaborate layered puddings.

All Twelve will be hoping to impress with their skill, creativity, knowledge and passion and clinch the Bake off Crown. Each week the eliminated baker will join the Extra Slice team for a digest of their time in the tent.

In the first episode, Jo Brand is joined by Alison Hammond and comedian and actress Aisling Bea for a digest of cake week. Tom Allen talks to the studio audience and the panel talk to the first baker to leave the tent.

Bake Off: An Extra Slice returns Thursday 26th September at 8pm on Channel 4.
