I hate it when people are rude/dismissive of stuff they don't like. And it's even worse that she participated in it, despite not liking it, and then shat on it. Like, I'll be honest, I have zero interest in that show myself, it just isn't something I care about at all. But rather than being contemptuous of it, I just leave it alone for the people who do enjoy it.

This goes for so many things in life.....sports, musical artists, art, video games....you don't have to like it, but why not just let it be instead of being an asshole.

Idk I don't think she's being an asshole, just talking about her experience. She didn't say the show was awful and should be cancelled, just that it was hard for her to do it for a multiple of personal reasons. And I imagine she didn't know it would be that way when first agreeing. I see no harm in trying something outside your wheelhouse and then admitting it wasn't making you happy or working for you.

GBBO was a very well-established, famous show before Toksvig got involved. I cannot imagine her NOT understanding what it was about, that it heavily featured baked goods, her role in said show, etc. All of those things were known factors.
