It’s nearly time to head back into the Bake Off tent.
The Great British Bake Off returns today, Sept. 2, in the United Kingdom, with the American premiere slated for three days later, on Sept. 5.
Hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond are back alongside judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith for Season 16. A group of 12 new home bakers will enter the tent with hopes of becoming Star Baker — and eventually, the Season 16 Bake Off champion.
In the United Kingdom, The Great British Bake Off begins today, Sept. 2, at 3 p.m. ET (8 p.m. local time). Bake Off airs free on the UK’s Channel 4 and streams free on Channel 4’s streaming service.
American audiences can watch new episodes on a three-day delay, airing Fridays on Netflix beginning Sept. 5, but there’s another way to watch…
If you’re in the United States and just can’t stand to wait until episodes drop on Netflix every Friday, we get it. There’s a full two days every week where you might get spoiled on this week’s Star Baker!
