Channel 4 have confirmed the show – which is hosted by Noel Fielding and newcomer Matt Lucas, and judged by Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood – will be back on our screens on Tuesday September 22nd at 8pm.
A message on the official ‘Bake Off’ Twitter account read:
‘Put a little love in your tart. Join us on Tuesday 22nd September for the return of The Great British Bake Off! #GBBO’.
Last month, the channel confirmed filming had wrapped on the latest, 11th series.
Alongside a behind-the-scenes photo of the ‘Bake Off’ set, the tweet read:
‘Filming has wrapped on the new series of The Great British Bake Off. More news soon… (sic)’.

In July, it was confirmed ‘Bake Off’ had resumed production ahead of a new series airing later this year, after some concerns the show may not be able to go ahead as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
Gary Davey – CEO of Sky Studios, the parent company of ‘Bake Off’ producer Love Productions – said filming was “going very well” on the show.
He added:
‘As you can imagine, there was a lot of work collaboratively between Love Productions and our Covid protocols team just to get that right’.
Sky Studios chief commercial officer Jane Millichip confirmed the show has moved to a more coronavirus-friendly location.
She said:
‘It’s all happening in deep secret, somewhere in darkest deepest Britain in the shires.
‘You will have your Victoria sponge this year’.
