It is longer this series with more contestants, 1.5 hours which I think is too long.

It may be reduced now that there's no longer 13 contestants.

I much prefer the C4 version of this show - Mary Berry looked like death warmed up and had the charisma of one of her cakes.

I haven't watched it since that woman stole someone's custard from the fridge.

Oh yes, that alleged `accident` when that bloke's ice-cream was removed from the fridge so that she could put hers in. The thing defrosted in the heat and he had to chuck it in the bin. She should have been disqualified for that.

A dastardly sabotage of custard if ever there was one

There are too many contestants Judd, how can any human taste that many cakes in quick succession without throwing up

We always record it and watch it the following night so that we can dump all of the adverts, which make up at least 20mins of the program I'll bet..
