The baking show features 12 of the UK's amateur bakers as they compete against each other in several challenges throughout the weeks "to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with their baking skills."
The talented batch of amateur bakers will face off in a 10-week competition to create their best dishes to be crowned the Great British Bake Off's Best Amateur Baker. One contestant would be eliminated each week, and the winner would be crowned from the three contestants that make it to the finale.
In episode 2, contestants had to present their biscuit-baking skills for Biscuit Week. Sumayah was crowned as the star baker of the week and Hazel was at the bottom and had to go home besides Jeff, who had left early in the episode.
In the upcoming episode, the bakers will be tasked with baking bread and will take on three challenges; "savoury signature, an instruction-less technical, and Horns of Plenty."
