What happened on The Great British Bake Off?

GBBO’s Rowan only just scraped through last week. And in the latest episode, he struggled to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with his bagels, soda breads and showstopper.

Now, just three episodes in, a number of viewers are backing 31-year-old pharmacy worker Sura to win. Other names backed for the final were Marc, Hermine and Lottie.

How did Sura do in Bread Week on GBBO?

At the end of last night’s GBBO, Sura’s Mama’s Tomato Vine Harvest Loaf drew particular praise.

“I think it looks quite dramatic and effective,” said Prue. When she tasted it, she called it “beautifully seasoned”.

Paul said: “The tomato bread is nice as well, it’s got a nice zing to it. But more importantly, it’s the structure, the air bubbles. It’s regular and even all the way down. It’s a nice loaf.”

I need Sura to win okay thanks.

They also praised her “delicious” feta-filled balls.
