Who is replacing Matt Lucas on Bake Off?

Bake Off fans have gone wild for the very glam new shake-up on their favourite show.

TV presenter Alison Hammond has already proved a hit with fans after she replaced Matt Lucas -  and she's only been on duty one week.

Let's hope she dusts her dancing shoes off tonight to give the cooks a giggle in the kitchen tonight.

Who was last week's star baker?

The first, erm, jammy contestant who got the top gong was Dan!

He looked delighted, after dazzling the judges with his doggy cake.

Taking the biscuit

Can't wait.

Crunch, crunch.

Erm, stick to the day job, we think!

Alright for Al!

Did you hear Bake Off's Alison Hammond giving fans a glimpse inside her emotional struggle juggling work with being a busy mum at home?

'Mum guilt?' What's that, she giggles.
