    Dozens of BBC employees caught in €13.5k Great British Bake Off betting scandal

    A fascinating read (don't worry, it's spoiler-free).

    I think if I worked for the Beeb, I might have been tempted myself!

    At least both Tamal and Ian had mistakes. Still could go to anyone.

    Nadiya is doing well if the only bad thing Paul could say was that they could have dusted some icing sugar on them... Hopefully she won't slip up in the technical though

    How can you be in a bake off final and never have practiced this bake?

    Personalised challenge because they all suck at pastry! :D

    I still think I'd be annoyed if Mel or Sue was in my face like that asking questions if I was under pressure. And this is why I'll never be on TV.

    Is anyone else eating baked goods while they watch? I have red velvet tea cakes from M&S (and prosecco)

    Ian is being overly ambitious I think... Not the greatest idea in the final. I love carrot cake though
