0:00:00.130,0:00:02.940
James Acaster: Never baked before. [br]Let alone competitively.

0:00:02.940,0:00:04.730
Let alone on Bakeoff.

0:00:04.730,0:00:07.510
It's the worst idea anyone's ever had.

0:00:08.539,0:00:11.913
Paul Hollywood: The texture of your flapjack--[br]>> It is perf.

0:00:11.913,0:00:13.413
>> --on the top, it looks [br]a bit wet.

0:00:13.413,0:00:16.343
>> Oh yeah, that's 'cause [br]it's not baked yet.[br](Prue and Noel laugh)

0:00:16.343,0:00:19.463
>> Ah. I can explain this to you.

0:00:19.463,0:00:22.503
Before it goes in the oven, [br]it's often a lot soggier.

0:00:22.679,0:00:24.069
>>Right, ok.

0:00:24.219,0:00:26.329
>> Is the texture ok? Good joke!

0:00:26.329,0:00:29.057
Wanna shake my hand now or later?

0:00:29.057,0:00:30.187
(Music)

0:00:30.187,0:00:34.689
>> Up to you. You can shake it now [br]to save yourself the bother

0:00:34.689,0:00:37.582
or you can shake it later on [br]and eat humble pie

0:00:37.582,0:00:38.902
as well as these flapjacks.

0:00:38.902,0:00:40.878
Sandy: Bakers, you have half an hour.

0:00:40.878,0:00:43.790
(Music)

0:00:43.790,0:00:45.138
(Oven clatters)

0:00:45.138,0:00:47.668
>> Right, I wish I were dead [br](scoffs).

0:00:47.668,0:00:50.949
I'm not taking that out the oven.[br]It's like a soup.

0:00:50.949,0:00:52.789
(Music)

0:00:52.789,0:00:55.809
>> Come on. Be magically done.

0:00:55.809,0:00:59.089
The mixture is...still liquid.

0:01:00.687,0:01:03.887
This is meant to be encouraging people[br]at home to get involved and bake

0:01:03.887,0:01:05.067
for charity.

0:01:05.067,0:01:07.168
This is the worst experience of my life!

0:01:07.168,0:01:10.128
This is so bad.

0:01:10.551,0:01:11.804
(Music stops)

0:01:12.603,0:01:14.633
>> Can you tell us about your[br]flapjack, please?

0:01:14.633,0:01:17.231
>> Started making it, had a breakdown,

0:01:17.231,0:01:19.111
bon appétit!

0:01:19.111,0:01:23.061
(Laughter)

0:01:24.167,0:01:26.047
>> Bit of a small bit.

0:01:26.047,0:01:27.547
Up to him.

0:01:27.547,0:01:30.697
>> The reason I cut the end bit is [br]'cause actually, where it's browned

0:01:30.697,0:01:32.886
and caramelized with the butter, [br]it's absolutely gorgeous.

0:01:32.886,0:01:34.354
>> So delicious. Isn't it lovely[br]>> It is.

0:01:34.354,0:01:36.477
Great flavor, not very well executed.

0:01:36.477,0:01:37.647
>> Story of my life.

0:01:37.647,0:01:40.040
(Laughter)

0:01:41.650,0:01:44.527
>> I thought even if baking goes badly

0:01:44.527,0:01:47.733
it's a bit of fun. It's not.

0:01:47.733,0:01:50.803
No, not disappointed--scarred.

0:01:52.130,0:01:53.564
(Water splashes into the bowl)

0:01:53.564,0:01:55.524
>>Oh, too much, that's too much.

0:01:56.561,0:01:58.691
This seems absolutely absurd.

0:01:58.691,0:02:00.751
That is too much frozen butter.

0:02:00.751,0:02:02.141
So, I've go excess dough.

0:02:02.141,0:02:04.421
Rylan Clark: You shouldn't have excess[br]dough, no

0:02:04.421,0:02:06.810
>> But, I cut it down[br]to the size it says here. I don't--

0:02:06.810,0:02:08.301
>> You used the whole dough together[br]>> Yeah

0:02:08.301,0:02:10.292
>> Like, that 10 centimeters by 25?

0:02:10.292,0:02:14.141
>> Well, it's too late, now, so I'll--[br]I'll put the butter in.

0:02:15.100,0:02:16.345
Noel: Where are the rest?

0:02:16.345,0:02:19.665
>> Oh, let's be realistic.[br](Noel laughs)

0:02:19.665,0:02:22.500
(Music)

0:02:25.188,0:02:25.928
(Music stops)

0:02:26.143,0:02:28.543
>> Who is responsible for this?

0:02:29.410,0:02:35.180
Well, all I can say, is it does have the[br]ingredients we gave you there.

0:02:35.180,0:02:37.141
>> What more could you ask?[br](laughter)

0:02:37.141,0:02:38.741
>> Quite a lot more.

0:02:38.825,0:02:42.250
>> We would like you to make a[br]meringue scene.

0:02:42.250,0:02:43.911
Basically, your happy place.

0:02:43.967,0:02:48.807
>> Cowabunga! Surf's up! I'm baking[br]my happy place, which is Wicksteed Park,

0:02:48.807,0:02:51.477
which is Kettering's premier park.

0:02:51.477,0:02:53.300
Russell Tovey: Do you want some salt?[br]I've got some salt.

0:02:53.300,0:02:55.870
>> I'd love it. Thank you, Russell.

0:02:55.920,0:02:59.506
Just, making my meringue taste [br]like the ocean.

0:03:00.164,0:03:01.864
(Russell scoffs and laughs)

0:03:01.864,0:03:03.977
>> Shouldn't really go in freehand,[br]should I? But--

0:03:03.977,0:03:06.847
would someone who plays by the books[br]do this?

0:03:07.897,0:03:09.647
(Music)

0:03:09.883,0:03:12.420
>> Wiki bear, reclining on the ocean.

0:03:12.420,0:03:16.490
I'm icing a raw egg. Does the name Prue[br]mean anything to you?

0:03:17.321,0:03:20.791
I know I'm in danger of constantly adding[br]to perfection, you know?

0:03:21.370,0:03:22.100
(Music)

0:03:22.853,0:03:26.463
>> That is the roller coaster in meringue.[br]It's sweet egg flavor.

0:03:26.463,0:03:28.243
(Laughter)

0:03:28.498,0:03:29.768
>> Sweet egg?

0:03:29.768,0:03:33.828
>> Now, see if you can spot[br]the secret ingredient in the water.

0:03:36.405,0:03:37.802
>> No, is the answer.

0:03:37.802,0:03:40.192
>> I put a little salt on it, [br]for a laugh!

0:03:40.192,0:03:42.102
(Laughter)

0:03:42.601,0:03:45.210
>> You're right, there is a hint.[br]>> I quite like it, actually.

0:03:45.210,0:03:46.821
>> It's like salted caramel. It's true.

0:03:46.821,0:03:48.621
>> I think it's brilliant, James.

0:03:48.621,0:03:51.861
>> Thank you very much, Paul.[br](Applause). Thank you very much.

0:03:52.200,0:03:56.020
Paul kinda gave me a look during that [br]showstopper that let me know:

0:03:56.020,0:04:00.245
Obviously, we can't give it to you, but[br]you are Star Baker.

0:04:00.245,0:04:01.135
(Music)
