Joining this year's celebrities in the Bake Off tent will be judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith, and hosts Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas - the latter of which recently stood down from his role as host on the regular show, owing to conflicts with his new series Fantasy Football League.
In a statement on Twitter, Matt Lucas wrote at the time: "Farewell Bake Off! It’s been a delicious experience and I can’t imagine a more fun way of spending my summers, but it’s become clear to me that I can’t present both 'Fantasy Football League' and 'Bake Off' alongside all my other projects. So, after three series and 51 episodes, I am cheerfully passing the baguette on to someone else."
