Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Voice-Over: "Having travelled all over the globe, Michael's taking his inspiration from a little further afield."
Michael: "It's based on flavors from Kerala down in the south of India, and it's completely invented, which makes me a bit nervous."
Voice-Over: "Michael's decorative red and white Caroline star bread will be flavoured with coconut and what's rapidly becoming his trademark, a kick of chili."
Paul Hollywood: "I love the effect of that. I think it's very clever, very pretty. Got a nice even bake on the other side. I like the coconut. I think coconut works really well with it. The kick from the chilies. I just love the red round there. I really like that. And I tell you why I like it. It's because I've never had anything like it before. And that's what makes it special."

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.
