About The Great British Bake Off (series 11) in brief
The eleventh series of The Great British Bake Off began on 22 September 2020. It is presented by returning host Noel Fielding and new host Matt Lucas. The series was won by Peter Sawkins, with Dave Friday and Laura Adlington finishing as the runners-up. Series 11 was released on Netflix in the U.S. as Collection 8. It premiered on 25 September 2020, with each episode available three days after the UK air date. The first three episodes were extended to 90 minutes instead of the usual 75 minutes. The bakers were announced on 15 September 2020 and the series was originally scheduled to take place in April 2020, but it was pushed back to July 2020. The cast and crew had to live in a self-contained biosphere, and filming took place in a marquee tent in the garden of the hotel over a period of six weeks.
This was the 100th episode of the Bake Off, incorporating Japanese flavours within it. For the signature challenge, the baker were asked to make 18 chocolate brownies. The technical challenge, set by Prue, required the bakers to make 12 hand-shaped coconut macaroons; six to be filled by a mango curd, with the other six to being filled with chocolate. The showstopper challenge was a 3-D cake bust depicting their personal celebrity hero. The episode began with a parody of the Johnson address by new presenter Matt Lucas, following Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s address to the nation on the pandemic.
