What week is it on The Great British Bake Off?
The Great British Bake Off will be doing a ‘show first’ in the next episode. It is set to return on Tuesday (October 14) night - the same spot it has been in since it started back in early September.
The remaining bakers will be taking on a series of meringue based challenges in Meringue Week. While meringues have featured before on the show, they have never been the main focus of an episode.

What are the challenges on Bake Off this week?
The preview for the latest episode, via Radio Times, teases: “Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding present a Bake Off first as the contestants face meringue week, starting off by making mini meringue tarts in the signature, before the more delicate task of soufflés in the technical.
“To end, judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith challenge them to produce a showstopping meringue ice cream cake - before deciding which of the hopefuls hasn't quite come up with the goods.”
