The cast of Channel 4’s award-winning hit show It’s A Sin will be reuniting this Christmas for a seasonal special of The Great British Bake Off.

Olly Alexander, Lydia West, Nathaniel Curtis and Shaun Dooley will enter the Bake Off tent to try their hand at some festive themed bakes.

Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith will be there to judge as usual, whilst Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas will preside over the competition.

It's A Sin proved to be a hit series on Channel 4 when it aired at the beginning of 2021.

Created by Russell T Davies, it followed a group of gay men in London living through the HIV/AIDS in the 1980s and late 1990s.

Will the Great British Bake Off have another festive episode?

That will be the first of two festive episodes airing on Channel 4 over the holiday period.

Four former bakers from the show will return to the tent to go head to head in three seasonal challenges.

Series nine bakers Kim-Joy and Jon and series 11’s Hermine and Rowan will go up against each other there.

Dates and times for those episodes to be broadcast are still to be confirmed by Channel 4.
