Mark's Sticky Marmalade Tea Loaf
Great British Baking Show ™ - Judging
Voice-over: "Mark Withers is a bus driver in South Wales. His cakes are the talk of the depot. He also makes his own marmalade for his signature sticky marmalade tea loaf."
Mark: "There's only so much marmalade on toast you can eat, so it's nice to have something different to do with my marmalade. It's quite a straightforward recipe and it's quite forgiving, so there's not a huge amount that can go wrong with it. "
Paul Hollywood: "What went wrong?" (The cake was sunk in the middle.)
Mark: "I don't know."
Mary Berry: "Did that go down when it came out?
Mark: "It was down when it came out, it was already down. It sunk."
Paul Hollywood: "Well, something's happened to it while it's been in the oven, it's been knocked, door's been open, oven's been banged."
Mary Berry: "It's absolutely delicious. But we always say it's got to look good."
Paul Hollywood: "For me, it's a little bit bitter. And the ginger is starting to overwhelm everything. It's sitting on my pallet now. But the texture of it is fantastic."

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.
