'There's a real sense of urgency to get the next series of 'Bake Off' in the can, considering it's one of Channel 4's biggest draws.
'That means the nation's baking grans and grandads have been deemed too high risk. 'Bake Off's wizened contestants are often the heart of the show.
'Val, who would 'listen' to cakes to work out if they were done, and rapping septuagenarian Flo became favourites.
'WI member Diana Beard was responsible for the show's most iconic moment: Baked Alaska-gate. It's a shame characters are rejected on account of age'.

'I'm chuffed to bits to be joining the most delicious show on television. I can't wait to break bread with Noel, Prue and Paul and meet the brilliant bakers.
'And bearing in mind my love of cake, I've already ordered some much larger trousers in anticipation. See you in the tent!'
'I love Matt. I love his warmth and his comedy and his big joyful smile. I think if we play our cards right we could become the next Chas and Morph'.
'I'm a genuine fan of Matt's, it is such great news he will be joining us in the tent, he's a fantastic addition to the team'.
'The combination of Matt Lucas and Noel Fielding! Will we stop laughing and get any filming done?'
