Great British Bake Offs Jamie Finn is still a meme goldmine despite elimination
Jamie Finn became an underdog fave but was eliminated in week two (Picture: WENN/CHannel 4) Jamie F..
Jamie Finn may have been axed from The Great British Bake Off but hes somehow managed to create a meme legacy after only two weeks.
Hey, theres two ways to win a TV show in the 21st century – theres actually winning the show, or becoming enough of a character that the internet has no choice but to back your corner.
The British public love an underdog, and as a result 20-year-old Jamies efforts to win the Bake Off caused the entire nation to rally around him, even though he wasnt the best baker.
Decidedly sweeter than his biscuits, you had to give the lad 10/10 for effort, if not for his baking.
On Biscuit Week, Jamie was given his marching orders, after trying and failing to make chocolate covered biscuits, fig rolls and a 4D biscuit showstopper in the shape of the guitar.

Over the course of the show, he was seen being helped by his pals in the tent as his biscuits fingers got stuck in the mould, and he took bakes out of the oven too early.
He was praised for the taste of his showstopper, but the clunky presentation sealed his fate.
Sadly, his time on the show was cut short after only two weeks, and viewers were livid to see him go so early.
Jamie giving it his all despite being out of his depth may not have won him the Bake Off crown, but it certainly won him the internet:
