Alison replaced former host Matt Lucas, who announced his departure in December last year after three seasons, attributing his decision to his busy schedule.

It's been a delicious experience and I can't imagine a more fun way of spending my summers," he wrote. "But it's become clear to me that I can't present both Fantasy Football League and Bake Off alongside all my other projects. So, after three series and 51 episodes, I am cheerfully passing the baguette on to someone else.
"I would like to give my warmest thanks and gratitude to everyone at Love Productions and Channel 4 and to Noelipops, Paul, Dame Prue, the crew and, of course, the wonderful bakers for welcoming me into the tent," he continued.
