Who are the hosts of the great British Baking Show 2022?

While we said goodbye to both Rebs and James last week, reigning champion Giuseppe Dell'Anno said in his RadioTimes.com column that he wasn't surprised.

"Suddenly, Rebs had a very bad week," he said. "This week, all her bakes had problems and issues. And I was not surprised at all to find out that the judges were eliminating two people rather than one. They needed to do that to restore the order in the progression of the show."

So far in the competition, Janusz and Maxy have racked up the most Star Baker titles, with the pair currently tied – but perhaps one of them may take the lead after tonight's episode.

Week 5 will see the bakers take on a steamy signature, a lemon meringue technical and a sponge showstopper, but who will be the crispy tops and the soggy bottoms?
