The end of an era, eh? No more Mel and Sue. No more Mary. Just a big tent and an even bigger hair gel budget. C : ) xx #GBBO #byebyegbbo

That's the end of #gbbo as we know it. #GBBO leaving the BBC, Britain leaving the EU; whatever next? The world is in a state of chassis.

Is NOTHING SACRED?

Today we say goodbye to #TXFM, the #GBBO as we know it and the last hours of my 20's. Someone pass the gin.
