Tensions are already high.

Tensions are already high.

The new series of The Great British Bake Off began filming recently and it’s already hit a few bumps.

As we all know, the show is moving to Channel 4 and will see Paul Hollywood returning with three new people. Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig will take over from Mel and Sue, while Prue Leith is the new Mary Berry.

Apparently, they’re not getting on well at all.

It’s a combination of things – Sandi spends most of her time in her trailer knitting, Noel is stressed that if he eats too much of the food he will put on weight and Prue reportedly can’t stand Paul Hollywood.

A source told The Sun:

“Paul, Prue, Sandi and Noel sit in their personal spaces backstage and don’t talk to each other. Sandi, in particular, spends most of the time knitting alone and refusing to mix with the others.

Noel has struggled to adjust to the totally different environment and has been saying he doesn’t want to taste too many of the cakes because he’s worried about getting fat.

And, worst of all, Sandi does not seem to have any interest in the contestants off screen like Mel and Sue used to.”

YIKES! We’re hoping this frostiness doesn’t come across on screen.
