Ready, set, bake! It’s almost time to watch The Great British Bake Off 2021 online. A dozen new bakers from around the UK are set to enter the big white tent and whip up cakes, cookies, biscuits, bread and other treats.
GBBO start time, channel
The Great British Bake Off series 12 premieres at 8 p.m. BST tomorrow (Sept. 21) on Channel 4.
The first episode drops on Friday, Sept. 24 on Netflix.
Judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith are back to deliver their verdicts on the confectionary creations, while Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas return as presenters. Fielding missed out on the most recent Christmas specials while on paternity leave.
The 12 new contestants range in age from 19 to 70 and come from diverse backgrounds and professions, including a Metropolitan Police detective, a software developer and a retired nurse (see the full cast list below). Due to the ongoing pandemic, they filmed in a bubble, just like last year’s GBBO cast.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch Great British Bake Off 2021 online. Plus, watch a teaser for series 12:

How to watch The Great British Bake Off 2021 in Canada
Good news and bad news for Canadians. The good news is that GBBO, which is also called The Great British Baking Show in Canada, is on CBC and the CBC Gem streaming service.
The bad news is that new seasons usually don’t become available until months after the U.K./U.S. broadcasts. For instance, series 11 just debuted in August, nearly a year after it aired. Thus far, CBC hasn’t set a GBBO series 12 release date.
