The new series of The Great British Bake Off is still only a few weeks old, but firm favourites have already been established with viewers (Jamie, we hardly knew ye.)
Many of them have grown very fond of several bakers in the tent, but there were tears all 'round when one of them was eliminated last night.
The lovely Michael brought fun and colour to the baking tent, but he had a pretty bad time with his cakes on Festival Week.
Henry, on the other hand, was awarded Star Baker - which everyone was very pleased about.
But Michael.... sniff...
Oh Michael, it’s been wonderful having you in the tent! Your baking, cheeky humour and spirit will be sorely missed. #GBBO pic.twitter.com/Oiq1vrIi77
