Theyre back – and we dont mean Noel and Sandi…
The first trailer for series nine of The Great British Bake Off has landed, and its reunited us once again with a full ensemble of singing baked goods.
Yup, we said singing.
Following on from last years similarly all-singing trailer – which promoted Channel 4s first series of the hugely-popular cooking show – GBBO producers have decided for this years teaser to once again anthropomorphise everything from pasties to wedding cakes.
Depicting great British scenes (from picnics to cricket matches), the new trailer culminates with a layer cake being delivered to the juding table by a hopeful in the famous tent.

The camera then pans to some familiar faces, as judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith and our affable hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig look down approvingly at the still-singing creation.
And the song of choice for our band of warbling cakes? Why, Christina Aguileras Beautiful, of course.
Its a humorous – if bizarre – way to reintroduce GBBO into our lives, and were all for it.
This years series will reportedly see the contestants navigating a vegan week – which has apparently been introduced into the show at the request of Noel.
When Noel put forward the idea producers leapt at the chance to try something different – especially as they think itll appeal to younger viewers, a source revealed about the potential new addition.
The Great British Bake Off will return to Channel 4 later this year.
