Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding fronted the latest edition, whilst Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith served as the judges.

On the recent edition of the Great British Bake Off, the amateur cooks were tasked with a series of autumnal themed challenges.

They had to make delicious autumnal pies in the signature and cook up the perfect Parkin in the technical.

For the showstopper, they were tasked with baking a cake which featured autumnal vegetables as a main ingredient.

Dylan struggled with his Diwali themed showstopper which the judges did not find to be illuminating.

However, it was Nellie who struggled the most throughout the week as Paul and Prue found her multilayered cake to be too dense.

As soon as Noel revealed the news, the effervescent baker elaborately stood up in front of everyone.

The fan favourite personality joked: “I’m not going anywhere,” which received a round of laughter from everyone in the gingham tent.

However, many viewers were not laughing, as they took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to vent their rage at her elimination.

“I genuinely just shouted ‘no!’ at that bake off eviction 🙁 caught me off guard,” exclaimed one viewer.

While a third raged: “I don’t think I can watch this now Nellie is gone.”

As someone else angrily posted: “Oh no! Nelly has been one of the best contestants of all time!”

And a fifth user was incandescent with rage at the judges as they added: “Oh Paul Hollywood, you will pay for getting rid of THE queen.”
