Nigella Lawson Pictured with Bake Off Co-Stars for First Time as New Series Teased
Channel 4 says Lawson will bring warmth, wit and flavour to the tent as filming wraps on the new series.
- The first photograph featuring TV chef Nigella Lawson alongside her Great British Bake Off co-stars has been revealed, showing her in the Bake Off Tent with judge Paul Hollywood and presenters Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond on her first day of filming.
- Lawson, 66, replaces Dame Prue Leith as a judge on Channel 4 after Leith, 86, announced in January she was stepping down; Leith had joined the show in 2017, replacing original judge Dame Mary Berry.
- Speaking on This Morning in January, Lawson said, "I am excited, but I take it very seriously. The thing about Bake Off is that it's about the programme – which is an institution of national treasure status – and it's about the bakers."
- Filming for the new series has wrapped, with the show set to air next month on Channel 4; Channel 4 said viewers can expect Lawson bringing "her trademark warmth, wit and passion for flavour to the tent."
- On Friday, Dame Prue said she is "alive and kicking" after being taken to hospital over fears she had suffered a stroke; she previously stated she wanted to step back at 86 to enjoy summers and travel.
