The first promotional video for Great British Bake Off has finally arrived and sent fans into a frenzy for the hit show.
The video shows a selection of different baked treats and delicacies singing along to Paul McCartney’s We All Stand Together.
The short clip was released on Channel 4’s Twitter account and seems to show the reboot with a distinct, quaint vibe.
Apart from the picture of its new presenters, this is the only thing fans have seen since the reboot was announced in late 2016.
The Great British Bake Off has undergone a new makeover after relocating from the BBC to Channel 4 which provoked controversy online.
Paul Hollywood is still a part of the huge show but joins a new team that consists of Sandi Toksvig, Prue Leith and Noel Fielding.
The original hosts Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc have cut ties with the new Great British Bake Off and joined a new version of The Generation Game.
Mary Berry also remained loyal to the BBC and is returning to the channel for a new programme called Britain’s Best Cook.
Channel 4 boss Jay Hunt indicated the new series would be given a “modern” revamp which can be seen in the clip.
“I have seen the first episode and the first thing you think is that this is Bake Off but with an extraordinarily high calibre of contributors but with a slight Channel 4 feel to it.”
“It’s got a new tone to it; it’s got a new comic riff to it and I think that feels modern and future facing.”
“So it’s a show that a lot of people love but with a Channel 4 spin which is exactly what I hoped it would be.” Hunt explained.
What do you think of the new trailer? Are you excited? Let us know @CelebMix!
