It's the semi-final and that means Patisserie week! The four remaining bakers must face three French-inspired delicacies to secure themselves a place in the elusive Bake Off Final. This week they must take on flaky pastry palmiers in the signature, a booze-soaked savarin in the technical and a batch of delicate fondant fancies in the showstopper. Who will pass the penultimate test and who will fall at the final hurdle? Join Sarah, Jane and Howard as they discuss patisserie week and try to solve the riddle: When is a palmier not a palmier?

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
