Flapjacks are granola bars, a "fête" is a carnival, and apparently hook-a-duck is the only game anyone's ever played in the UK. Neat as a pin!

GBBO is off to the races with Cake Week, and we are SO relieved to be back in the tent, even if Hassan isn't having his best days. Justice for Hassan and that "pl-axe" throw edit! In the latter half, we cover the MasterChef semifinals - did Gordon overcook his duck since everyone's was over? We'll never know!
