Celebrity Great British Bake Off lineup revealed as new series begins
Kate Garraway, Roman Kemp, Amelia Dimoldenberg, and Maxine Peake are among the stars taking part in Celebrity Great British Bake Off when the new series kicks off tonight. Hosts Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding will welcome 20 famous faces into the tent for the Stand Up To Cancer special where the star-studded lineup will have their baking skills judged by Paul Hollywood and Caroline Waldegrave, who is stepping in to replace Prue Leith. The celebrity lineup includes property presenter Sarah Beeny, Self Esteem singer Rebecca Lucy Taylor and comedian Adam Buxton. TV presenter siblings Scarlette and Stuart Douglas will also be joining the group, alongside model Ellie Goldstein and Loose Women panellist Gloria Hunniford. Celebrity couple Chris and Rosie Ramsey, known for their podcast and theatre tour Sh**ged, Married, Annoyed, will also go head-to-head in the new series. More names joining presenter Garraway and Chicken Shop date host Dimoldenberg include Ghosts actor Jim Howick, Black Ops star Gbemisola Ikumelo and comedian Jamali Maddix . Other names include actor Meera Syal, Irish comedian Tommy Tiernan, stand-up comedian Phil Wang, and Alma's Not Normal actor Sophie Willan. Leith, 85, had been a part of the much-loved baking programme since its move from the BBC to Channel 4 in 2017, replacing the expert role formerly held by Mary Berry. Her replacement, Waldegrave, is a close friend and co-owner of Leiths School of Food and Wine. Leith made the decision to take a hiatus from the celebrity edition of the show after she found it difficult to keep up her busy schedule. However, she was adamant that she was not quitting the show. She told This Morning last year: 'These things are filmed back-to-back all the way through summer from April to August so you don't get any time off,' she said. 'I'm getting quite old and there's places I want to see. So I'm not doing this year's.' She shut down rumours she was quitting, saying: 'It's absolutely not true at all! What I'm not doing this year is the celebrity one.' She later told MailOnline about the decision: 'I absolutely love working on Bake Off and am looking forward to filming the next series and meeting our new bakers.' 'I am only stepping back from the celebrity series, which is just a question of the filming commitment involved as we make these shows back to back.'

90's Heartthrob Robert Gavin (Land of the Lost) Debuts First Album One Thousand Love Letters to My Best Friend on Valentine's Day
CALABASAS, Calif., Feb. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- After a break from acting and performing for decades, Robert Gavin is going back to his roots performing and debuts his first album, One Thousand Letters to My Best Friend, on Valentine's Day. Gavin was a member of one of the first boy bands in the 90's, Outlaw Posse (along with David Faustino from Married with Children), and was one of the forces behind the pioneering hip hop club Balistyx in Hollywood. He's been a successful entrepreneur in the music business after starting TicketZoom and knew that one day he would record his own music that has been percolating within. Gavin co-wrote all the songs and has an impressive array of producers that worked on the album, including Manuel Olsen, Akron, Jeremih, Chris Brown, Diddy, Trey Songz, Rich the Kid, Desiigner, and Drakeo. The first three singles are One Thousand Love Letters, Love Bombs (which has an accompanying anime video), and My Best Friend. All the songs tap into relationship heartache, the roller coaster of love, and the challenges of dating in today's word (such as ghosting, henceforth the song Ghosting).
