10 things everyone was thinking during episode 4 of The Great British Bake Off
From crème brûlakes to Sandy's unjust dessert, don't miss our round-up of last night's Great British Bake Off


Alvin called Paul "sir" and my heart melted. Also the way he said "edible pansies" was cuter than a baby in a watering can.
Why is Flora tuilling? What is tuilling? Why can't I tuille?
Sandy having a wobble-off with Sue was the highlight of the season. Oh the Attenborough moment was even better. Now she's said cheeseslide. CHEESESLIDE! What a hoot.
Paul Hollywood's dubbed a cake "meringue fest". That sounds like something I definitely want to be a part of.
"Is Angel Delight from Austria?" No Matt, no it's not.
Ian's a genius.
Tamal's little dances every time he gets a compliment are beyond adorable.
"Ombre-style frosting." Maybe not.
An elevating pop can cake with meringue-style bubbles? That's never going to work. She can't possibly... oh my God it's amazing.
Paul's proud face when he won the technical was like a little kid on Christmas morning. What a treat.
