Who left Bake Off: The Professionals this week? All the answers are here if you didn't get a chance to tune in on Tuesday night.

Bake Off: The Professionals is back for 2021 and fans can see how teams of professional pastry chefs get on when they compete in a baking competition where they are expected to turn ordinary patisserie and the most delicious desserts into masterpieces.

If you're a fan of the amateur Great British Bake Off and the Celebrity Great British Bake Off, you won't be able to resist the quality of the Professionals Bake Off - where even the experienced pastry chefs find avoiding a 'soggy bottom' a bit of a challenge.

And if you missed last night's show aired on Channel 4, here's who left Bake Off: The Professionals this week...
