Whisks and spatulas at the ready - Great British Bake Off is back
Judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood are back for the second series of GBBO to be aired since switching to Channel 4 last year, along with hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig.
But Prue has admitted to being scared of her co-host when she first signed up to the show.
She said: "I was doing what I like to do most, which is eating good food - so I was never nervous about the actual job. But I was a bit frightened of Paul Hollywood.
"The way he can be completely silent and stare - it's terrifying."
Now, Paul insists that they get on like a house on fire. And it sounds like he quickly forgot about old pal and baking legend, Mary Berry.
He said: "Literally, within a week, it was perfect. It feels even more relaxed this year. It actually feels like we’ve been working together for years to be honest."
Ouch, we hope Bezza doesn't hear him saying that!
Prue's new role seems to be a hit with her grandchildren, too.
She revealed: "I can’t tell you what it does for my street cred when my grandchildren get stopped in the street and are asked: ‘Are you with the lady from the Bake Off?' You can see the six year old thinking ‘she’s my nan’."
Awww, that's sweeter than a six-tier rainbow cake coated in butter icing.
Prue has also spoken out about THAT tweet she posted, which revealed who the GBBO 2017 winner was 12 hours before the final was aired.
She laughed: "Do you think anybody’s ever going to stop making jokes about that tweet?”
Great British Bake Off starts on Thursday 28 August at 9pm on Channel 4.

Paul Hollywood on this year's GBBO challenges
Judge Paul Hollywood has revealed how he has taken challenges 'back to basics' in this year's Bake Off.
He explained: "I wanted to go back to basics to a point because I think last year, with some of the technical challenges, people said to me ‘don’t do that, I’ve never even heard of them’ -which is fair enough, because we want the general public to actually bake.
"So I think some of the challenges are very challenging, and others we just reigned it back a bit."
We wonder if Paul's idea of 'basic' is the same as ours?
