How to watch 'The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2025' with the help of a VPN
Here's everything you need to know about the 2025 episodes ofThe Great Celebrity Bake-Off, including who will be appearing, when they air, and how to watch from anywhere with the help of a VPN.
The Great Celebrity Bake-Off will air on Sunday March, 16 at 7:40 p.m (GMT). That's 3:40 p.m. ET for those in the U.S.. Episodes will air weekly on Sunday nights for five consecutive weeks.
The Great Celebrity Bake-Off will air exclusively on Channel 4 in the U.K. Though Netflix carries several recent season of The Great British Baking Show, and its various spin-offs and specials, the platform does not show episodes of The Great Celebrity Bake-Off. That means to watch Amelia work outside of the chicken shop, you'll need a VPN to help you watch from inside the U.S..
If you want to watch this year's episodes of The Great Celebrity Bake-Off from abroad, all it takes is the help of a VPN. By using a VPN with a location set to a location in the United Kingdom, viewers in the U.S. can tune in to the broadcast for free on Channel4.com after the show airs live on Sunday nights. You will need to create an account on the site (you'll need a UK postal code handy to do this) and log in after changing your server location.
A VPN (virtual private network) helps protect your data, can mask your IP address and is perhaps most popular for being especially useful in the age of streaming. Whether you're looking to watch Friends on Netflix (which left the U.S. version of the streamer back in 2019) or tune in to overseas broadcasts, a VPN can help you out. Looking to try a VPN for the first time? This guide breaks down the best VPN options for every kind of user.
Three out of the four regular stars of The Great British Bake-Off will be part of the celebrity specials: presenters Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond will appear as comic relief, offering encouragement to the contestants, and longtime judge Paul Hollywood will also take part. His colleague, Dame Prue Leith, will not be participating; she will be replaced by Caroline Waldegrave OBE. the owner of the Dudwell Cookery School in Somerset, England. (Leith has confirmed that her absence is simply a matter of scheduling and she is not leaving the regular show as a judge.)

ABBA Sees A Trio Of Career-Defining Hit Songs Return Together
ABBA is back on the Official Physical Singles chart this week with several classic tunes, showing that decades after first becoming superstars, the Swedish pop musicians still sell in impressive numbers. Three of the quartet's most beloved singles return to the tally, which ranks the top-selling cuts on any physical format – and as they rebound, British citizens once again show their love for the once-maligned outfit. 'SOS,' 'So Long,' and 'Mamma Mia' Return Three ABBA favorites — 'SOS,' 'So Long,' and 'Mamma Mia' — all find space on the Official Physical Singles chart this frame. 'SOS' leads the pack at No. 57, followed by 'So Long' at No. 81 and 'Mamma Mia' just behind that latter cut at No. 82. Each one of those tunes has only been away for a less than a month. All Three Have Hit the Top 10 Before While their current positions are fairly modest, each ABBA's returning cuts has previously broken into the Official Physical Singles chart's top 10, though they stalled in different spots. 'So Long' once climbed to No. 3, 'SOS' peaked at No. 5, and 'Mamma Mia' reached No. 4. Coincidentally, all three have now spent exactly four weeks on this ranking, even though they've stepped away in the past. Four ABBA Singles Debuted in June All three ABBA tracks that currently appear on the Official Physical Singles tally originally debuted back in June. At the same time, the Grammy-nominated group also launched 'I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do' inside the top 10, though that single does not reappear on the roster this time. Gold Still Performing Well Across Multiple Rankings ABBA's singles success pairs well with continued power on the albums tallies in the U.K. The group's Gold – Greatest Hits compilation holds at No. 21 on the Official Albums chart, where it has now spent more than 1,200 weeks. It also sits inside the top 40 on both the streaming and downloads rankings. The band even manages to fill two spaces on the Official Album Downloads chart with different versions of Gold.

SPLINTER CELL Series Creator Derek Kolstad Explains Why Sam Fisher Is 'Not the Best' — GeekTyrant
Netflix's upcoming animated series Splinter Cell: Deathwatch is bringing back stealth icon Sam Fisher, but not exactly the way longtime fans might expect. Series creator Derek Kolstad, the writer behind John Wick and Nobody , recently opened up about his approach to the character, and he doesn't see Sam Fisher as ultimate ghost operative. Kolstad told Den of Geek: 'One of the things that I like about Sam Fisher, John Wick, and Hutch Mansell [from Nobody] is that, yes, they're pretty badass at what they do but, more importantly, they're not the best. They get beat up.' That an interesting outlook considering Fisher's reputation as one of gaming's most elite covert agents, but Kolstad seems intent on making him more grounded and vulnerable. This means that Deathwatch might lean toward a grittier, hands-on style similar to Splinter Cell: Conviction , rather than the purely shadow-driven approach from the original trilogy. In the early games, Fisher was a master of infiltration, relying on high-tech gadgets and his iconic night vision goggles to ghost through missions without leaving a trace. Kolstad went on to explain: 'You look at the games, and he's incredibly adept and comfortable at tech, but sometimes a bullet or a blade or the ripping out of some cord is your best line of defense.' That philosophy hints at a Fisher who isn't invincible, and whose fights might be a little more brutal and desperate this time around. But Kolstad believes the heart of the character remains the same. 'I always loved the world of Splinter Cell. I'm a huge fan of army-of-one [stories] if you do it right. And yet, even though he's had hard decisions to make, it's just refreshing that Sam Fisher's a hero. 'He has moments of empathy and having to do this thing when both decisions are wrong, but one is a little less wrong at the cost of his soul and his own personal life, but for the benefit of the rest of us.' Splinter Cell: Deathwatch will feature Liev Schreiber as the voice of Sam Fisher, stepping into the role long held by Michael Ironside. The series made its first appearance at the Annecy Festival, where director Guillaume Dousse revealed some of the visual and tonal inspirations for the show, citing Ghost in the Shell , Ozark , and even elements of Mission: Impossible . Producer Hugo Revon added: 'It was interesting to have this aging character, not totally like the Tom Cruise version but more realistic, and more weathered by life.' The series is set to hit Netflix in late 2025, joining the platform's growing roster of video game adaptations like Castlevania and the upcoming Devil May Cry series. Meanwhile, fans are still waiting on that elusive Splinter Cell remake, which Ubisoft teased years ago but hasn't delivered any meaningful updates on. So, how do you feel about a Sam Fisher who isn't the best at what he does?
