There was a whole new batch of celebrity bakers on tonight’s instalment of The Great Celebrity Bake Off SU2C.
Keen to flex their baking skills in the Great British Bake Off tent for charity were Carol Vorderman, comedian Mo Gilligan Judge Rob Rinder and Kelly Brook.
The show, which is in aid of Stand Up to Cancer, saw the bakers encourage viewers at home to ring up and donate money.

She said: “My dad died from cancer in 2007.”
Kelly then had to pause and put her hands to her mouth, as she was overcome with emotion while talking about her dad.
Kelly then added: “Sorry I get quite emotional when I talk about that.”
The brunette bombshell then went onto say that as much as she’s on Bake Off to “have fun today”, she is also there to “help out people” who went through a similar experience to her.
Kelly’s dad died on November 26 2007 at the family home in Rochester, following a long battle with cancer.
Ken Parsons’ death came just days after they had celebrated Kelly’s birthday – he was aged 57 at the time.
Shortly after his death, a source told The Sun: “Kelly, her mum Sandra and the rest of the family are devastated. Kenneth was very ill for a long time.”
Kelly’s spokesman said: “Kelly Brook’s dad, Kenneth, passed away peacefully at home on Monday evening following a long battle with cancer, aged 57.”
The Great Celebrity Bake Off SU2C special airs Tuesdays on Channel 4 at 8pm
