The Great British Bake Off Episode Schedule

The bakers are hoping for a Hollywood handshake this week as they tackle bread, the steely-eyed judge's speciality. The challenges include a garlic bread signature and a showstopping bread display - not to mention one of the most disastrous technicals in the show's history. Who will be dusting themselves off and hanging up their apron?

In a first for the show, the bakers face a series of challenges chosen by the viewers, including a signature that sees an invasion of familiar faces into the tent. They also face a mystery box in the technical round, before a showstopper in which they unleash their inner fashionistas by serving up wearable bakes.

It's Biscuit Week and there's a trip Stateside for the bakers in the Signature as they make American-style cookies. In the Technical, it's a journey of a different kind as they travel back in time for a nostalgic classic. But nothing is quite as it seems and they must rely on their taste alone to recreate this beloved bake. And in the Showstopper, a visually striking biscuit mosaic tests the bakers' artistic flair and also gives them the chance to create something that's close to their hearts.
