Bake Off to scrap controversial themes following criticism
The Great British Bake Off will no longer feature weeks themed around nationalities or countries following a backlash to last year’s “Mexican Week”.
The food competition returns in September for its 13th series, with Alison Hammond taking over from Matt Lucas as Noel Fielding’s presenting partner.
Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood will be back as the show’s judges.
In addition to a new co-host, this year’s series of Bake Off will also feature a change to the format. National-themed weeks are being scrapped, following backlash in previous years to “Japan Week” in 2020, “German Week” in 2021 and “Mexican Week” in 2022.
Speaking toThe Guardian ahead of the new series, executive producer Kieran Smith said that this year’s competition would be “very traditional”.
Addressing criticism around the themed weeks, Smith said that he would “hold my hands up”.
“We didn’t want to offend anyone but the world has changed and the joke fell flat,” he said, adding: “We’re not doing any national themes this year.”
