Bake Off fans get a taste of things to come in new trailer

Creepy or cool? You decide!

Fans of the Great British Bake Off have been given a taste of things to come with the trailer for the first series on new home Channel 4 - but there is no sign of the presenters or judges.

Last month, Channel 4 told fans to expect a "new tone" and "comic riff" when the hit show is rolled out on the station, and the trailer shows what's in the oven.

It celebrates old school stop-motion animation and sees various cakes and breads singing Paul McCartney and the Frog Chorus' We All Stand Together.

New hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig, returning judge Paul Hollywood and new colleague Prue Leith aren't in the kitchen for all the gooey, creamy fun.

There's no sign of the new line-up - L-R Paul Hollywood, Sandi Toksvig, Noel Fielding and Prue Leith - in the trailer

As the trailer ends, the narrator says: "Set your timers, The Great British Bake Off is back." 

Temptation then gets the better of him and mid-mouthful he adds: "Coming soon... on Channel 4."

The trailer has received a mixed (peel) response on social media.

The proof of the pudding in this case will, of course, be in the watching, but if the show proves half as tasty as some of the tweets it'll be doing well.
