Hurrah! The Tent has reopened once more as four celebrities found themselves behind the most famous of baking benches. Sci-Fi star Daisy Ridley joined comedian Rob Beckett, Bake Off Professionals host Tom Allen and X-Factor winner Alexandra Burke to put themselves through their baking paces. As ever, Bake Off legends Howard Middleton and Jane Beedle were on hand to give their expert opinion, as our new host Emily stepped into the hot seat.

This series is of course being aired to raise money for Stand Up To Cancer, and if you'd like to join us in supporting this important cause then you can donate here. We'll be doing an Easter Webinar with Jane Beedle on April 3rd to support the charity and they'll be more details on that to come.

Since our last podcast we have been holding around eight online classes every weekend for you to join us at, so there's something for everyone and we really hope to see many of you again with us online. Upcoming classes include Croissants with Rosie Brandreth, Sausage Rolls with Howard, Sticky Toffee Pudding with Andrew, Carrot Cake with Ian Cumming and Pretzels + Soda Bread with Dan Beasley Harling. The classes are great fun and if you use the code PODCAST at checkout you'll get 10% off, whilst gift vouchers and bundle packs are also available. You can check out our online baking classes on our website.

Don't forget we also have a free webinar with Rosie Brandreth making her brilliant Burnt Basque Cheesecakes to celebrate Mothers Day on Sunday 14th March at 4.30pm UK - you do need to register if you want to join us - click here.
