The Great British Bake Off 2027 prediction game

Pick the winner before the first signature bake, then call Star Baker every week.

Is The Great British Bake Off coming back in 2027?

Yes. Channel 4 renewed the show for an 18th series in 2027. It usually starts in September.

Who are the Bake Off judges and hosts?

In 2026 Paul Hollywood was joined by new judge Nigella Lawson, with Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding presenting. The 2027 line up hasn't been announced.

Can we play a Sofa Picks league for Bake Off?

Leagues open as soon as the Bake Off line up is confirmed, usually a few days before the first episode. Right now you can play Jungle Jury, our I'm a Celebrity game, which starts on Monday 16 November on ITV1 and ITVX.

How does a Sofa Picks league work?

One person starts a private league and shares a link with the family or group chat. Everyone makes their calls before the series starts, then quick picks between episodes, and points go in after every show. Everyone you invite plays free, there's no app or login, and anyone can make picks for someone who isn't online.
