The Great British Bake Off Final!

The Great British Bake Off celebrated the final episode of Season 10!

Bakers had to make a chocolate cake signature bake, cheese soufflés for the technical, and a picnic illusion, where cakes and biscuits were made to look like other food.

David deserved it this episode. He kept his calm and was on top throughout the episode. I felt very sad for Steph and Alice having such breakdowns.

That said: They never should have let Michael, Henry and Helena go. Especially Helena was totally undeserved.

I hope they learn from this and GBBO goes back to its wholesome roots instead of disliking colour of bakes or being unnecessarily mean. I miss Mary Berry.

EDIT
Oh one thing I did like better were the friendships this season. Dan from last year is such a bitch to everyone on twitter and Rahul seemed very left out of everything because people hated him for being the favourite and having anxiety about his bakes even though they were nearly always good. At first I thought Dan was funny and I get that he felt let down by the producers in a private matter and faced homophobia online but don't let it out on the other candidates.

Agreed on Dan, quite a few times this season he posted that he thought the wrong person was being sent home or that certain people were getting preferential treatment. Not nice for the bakers to read from the public let alone from someone who has actually been on the show, he should know better.

He was also shading Rahul on the Topless Baker podcast last year for getting more time in the finale when his glass broke or something. And he's always saying how the bakers in his year aren't close and making "subtle" remarks about them.

Yeah if he likes someone he's always like: Ignore the haters on twitter! I was fighting everyone even if they didn't tag me.

And then he says himself that someone should go home and still fights people on twitter. Honestly for a grown man and father embarrassing.

Rahul seemed meshed in with most of the other bakers though, he definitely showed up on the post show segments with a bunch of them, but I think some of the online fan reactions to him were weird. Not everyone can have a pat little complete arc of low self esteem to staggering self sufficiency over the course of 1 season of a baking show. His personality was kind of diffident, but his baking was good and he seemed nice. Dan seemed to be the only one no one was in contact with.

Mh well Rahul didn‘t have instagram until after the show was over and I always see him commenting on old and new baker‘s posts in a very formal way and almost never get responses. I saw him hang a bit with the new bakers that was nice.

I feel like people really liked him at first then decided he was faking his anxiety and started hating him idk

best thing is watching and not following anything else. I only watch the show and since I'm from another country it is very easy to ignore the drama. I liked Rahul last year, I think he deserved to win. makes me sad to know he got hate.

and helena leaving like that seemed so undeserving. sometimes they totally fuck up the editing. we need to be explained why they are leaving.

in the brazilian version the baker-judge always explains the things the person did wrong and how they could have made that right. it is the best thing about our version, because it is so full of drama I hate it.
