I wish there was more focus on the baking. In the original GBBO we saw the whole process. This show, while there are fun elements, focuses on the decoration and assembly more. Tom Allen is so over the top and annoying. Stacey replacing him in series 7 was amazing. I thought she was adorable and added a more real element to the hosts. Liam is charming on his own but when paired with Tom his usual charm falls flat. He and Stacey together is a much better pair. Benoit and Cherish are a bit over the top but I love it. They find the good and the bad in each bake and I appreciate their efforts to give advice and praise when they can.
