Prue Leith Bids Farewell to The Great British Bake Off
TL;DR Summary
Prue Leith announced on Instagram that she is stepping down from Channel 4's The Great British Bake Off after nine years, saying it feels like the right time and pointing to her age (86). She has judged more than 400 challenges since joining when Bake Off moved from the BBC to Channel 4, replacing Mary Berry, and has been a familiar presence alongside Paul Hollywood with hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond. The show will continue with Hollywood as a sole judge and will need a new co-judge, as Bake Off remains Channel 4's most-watched program.
