The Great British Bake Off premiered to its highest ever viewing figures last night.
The Great British Bake Off airs Tuesdays at 8pm on Channel 4.
In total, seven million people tuned into the season opener, up one million on the previous year’s opening night figures.
These increased figures are likely to have been affected by Boris Johnson’s coronavirus lockdown speech, which took place at 8pm when Bake Off was due to begin.
