The Great British Bake Off is set to welcome some very famous faces onto the show with Louis Theroux and Ovie Soko amongst them.
This follows on from the roaring success of the
festive special that aired on New Year’s Day.
Starring the cast of the hit show
Derry Girls, the reaction to the celebrity episode was overwhelmingly positive with some even petitioning for a series-long spin-off.
