Great British Bake Off returned to our screens tonight, and people were deliriously happy about it.

CAKES! MARY BERRY! MEL AND SUE!

*does happy dance*

Whoops!

The first challenge of 2016? A lemon drizzle cake.

Needless to say, things got very rude very quickly.

And everyone’s inner food critic came out in no time

Whoops!

When one contestant made a gin and tonic drizzle cake, everyone was like, “YASSSSSSS”

Not least Mary Berry. A woman after our own heart.

The word ganache was uttered approximately 70 million times

Whoops!

As was, ahem, ‘dry ganache’ and ‘dripping ganache’

LORD HELP US AND SAVE US.

Whoops!

Val emerged as an early favourite

SHE CAN HEAR CAKES!

Even though she did try everyone’s patience

Pull your socks up, Val!

Meanwhile, everyone was properly envious of Selasi for being so effortlessly chill

And a little in awe of Candice’s lipstick

But in the end, someone had to go and that someone was Lee

Who seemed really lovely! But alas, this isn’t a competition for Great British Nice Off and somebody had to go.

In conclusion, we are so happy Great British Bake Off is back

Never leave us again.
