Ah, Paul, come on.
There are certain things we have come to expect from a standard Great British Bake Off episode.
One of those things is Noel wearing a jazzy shirt. Another one is Rahul being unable to take a compliment.
And apparently, another thing that's bound to happen not once, not twice, but approximately 17 times in each and every episode of the show these days is Paul Hollywood dishing out a handshake.
The man cannot be stopped.
Baked a decent Swiss roll with a nice swirl? Handshake.
Didn't under bake your scones? Handshake.
Just showed up to the tent? You better believe that man is going to give you a handshake.

The Paul Hollywood handshake used to be an elusive affair. It used to be rare, only appearing for a brief moment or two when a baker produced something so stunningly exquisite that words simply could not do it justice.
Now though, it happens every five minutes.
The man has lost the run of himself and nothing can stop him.

Last night alone he gave out three (three!) handshakes during the signature challenge. Like, we all know they're good at baking Paul, it's you who needs to be stricter with your praise.
Lots of other people think so too and they decided to take to Twitter to rip the piss out of Paul Hollywood - the man who simply cannot keep his hands to himself.
