Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Gill: " I'm making a chocolate orange loaf cake. This is for my sister V. She bullied me into applying, so it's all her fault that I'm here."
Voice-over: "Gill covered a chocolate and orange marbled sponge with chocolate and orange buttercream and candied orange slices."
Prue Leith: "Gill, it sounds absolutely delicious. I mean, first of all, you're starting with two of the best flavors in the world, so I don't think you can mess it up."
Paul Hollywood: "Oh, it looks lovely inside. Lovely marble. That's a beautiful cake."
Prue Leith: "It's nice and orangey."
Paul Hollywood: "Yeah. The only thing that lets you down is your overall look of this cake."

About The Great British Baking Show ™
The Great British Bake Off ™ (often abbreviated to Bake Off or GBBO and referred to in the United States as The Great British Baking Show ™) is a streamed British baking competition, in which a group of amateur bakers compete against each other in a series of rounds, hoping to impress the judges with their baking skills. One contestant in The Great British Baking Show ™ is eliminated in each round, and the winner is selected from the three contestants who reach the final.
The Great British Baking Show ™ operates on a weekly elimination process to find the best all-around baker from the contestants, who are all amateurs. In each episode, the bakers are given three challenges based on that week's theme: a signature bake, a technical challenge, and a show-stopper. The bakes are assessed by the judges who then choose a "Star Baker" for the week, and a contestant is also eliminated. In the final round, three bakers are left and a winner is chosen from the three.
