During the latest episode of Channel 4’s Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up to Cancer (SU2C), presenter Alison Hammond found herself at the center of attention due to an apparent swearing incident that shocked viewers at home.
The star-studded episode featured celebrities such as Strictly star Oti Mabuse, comedians David O’Doherty and Suzi Ruffell, and presenting legend Gabby Logan, all participating in support of SU2C. However, it was Hammond’s interaction that sparked controversy.
As tensions rose in the Bake-Off tent, Gabby Logan faced challenges with her meringue creation, causing it to fall apart. Hammond stepped in with calming advice, reassuring Logan that her dish would still taste good. However, some viewers misinterpreted Hammond’s words as a swear directed at Logan.
Social media platforms lit up with speculation, with one user on Twitter questioning, “Did @AlisonHammond just tell #Gabby to get that sh*t together???” This led to a wave of confusion among Celebrity Bake Off viewers, prompting many to rewind and verify what was said.
Upon closer examination, it became evident that Hammond did not actually use profanity but rather an unfortunate choice of words. Her intended message was, “Get your ganache and stick it together,” aimed at helping Logan salvage her meringue, not to criticize her.
Despite the brief misunderstanding, Gabby Logan ultimately triumphed and was crowned Star Baker in the latest Celebrity Bake Off installment.
