Transcript - Great British Bake Off

(Anonymous) 2026-03-30 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Text: She shared: "I'd never watched it. I still haven't watched it. I didn't understand it. Cakes are readily available in the shops. I didn't enjoy the process. You stand at the end of a long table for hours when Prue and Paul taste everything and we literally didn't speak or taste anything. I used to say, 'Can we not sit down? I'm not contributing,' but no."]

That's a quote from Sandi Toksvig about Great British Bake Off. I don't fault her for not "getting" baking or the show. I *do* fault her for accepting a huge paycheck for presenting a show where her contempt for baking and the show itself was, to me, quite clear. I wasn't surprised when I found out she quit because she didn't enjoy it. It was obvious. She shouldn't have let her attitude poison GBBO.
