    • This week’s Great British Bake Off saw one contestant make a sweet tribute.

    The Great British Bake Off has been providing us all with our weekly dose of baking excitement.

    However, fans were outraged last week when the show saw not just one but two contestants eliminated.

    Viewers were in shock to see that popular contestants Helena Garcia and Michelle Evans-Fecci faced a double elimination.

    And when forlorn fans tuned in to enjoy this week’s show, it turns out that the viewers weren’t the only ones who couldn’t handle the missing contestants.

    Show favourite Henry Bird, who is known for his polite demeanour and spotless knotted tie in the kitchen, made a sweet tribute the two newly-eliminated contestants Helena and Michelle.

    The Durham University student added to his outfit in the form of a brooch and pin.

    In tribute to Helena, who was known for her gothic style bakes, Henry wore a spider’s web brooch.

    And fans couldn’t contain their excitement.

    ‘IS HENRY WEARING A SPIDER WEB PIN AS HOMAGE TO HELENA?!? 😭🕸🕷 #GBBO #bakeoff,’ wrote on fan.

    While another wrote, ‘Looking sharp Henry. Let’s take a moment to appreciate his little web brooch. Anyone else think it’s a sweet nod to Helena? 🕸️❤️ #GBBO2019 #bakeoff’.

    Another viewer commented, ‘Henry having a spiders web broach on his apron in honour of Helena being booted off is the cutest,most wholesome thing I’ve ever seen on Bake off (along with Hawaiian shirts from last year)😭honestly the bake off contestants are the cutest people ever. #GBBO2019 @BritishBakeOff’.

    One eagle-eyed fan even spotted that the dedicated contestant was another addition to his outfit in honour of contestant Michelle, writing, ‘Great British Bake Off Henry wearing a sparkly spiderweb brooch and a Welsh flag pin for Helena and Michelle is super cute #GBBO2019’.

    Alongside the spider’s web brooch, viewers were able to see a small Welsh flag pin as a tribute to Michelle. How cute!
