"Hey @PrueLeith - whilst Cacti is the Latin pluralisation of cactus - a totally acceptable English plural is Cactuses.

How do you say it in Polish?" asked one viewer."Cactuses is also right. If you're going to correct someone whose first language isn't English, make sure you're right," penned a second in defence of Janusz.A third person then said: "Backing Janusz and his cactuses/cacti all the way."While a fourth fumed at the judge and challenged her when they said: "Don't correct Janusz!

Not until you can say 'cacti' in Polish."And a fifth said: "Aye like you would know what cacti was in Polish, Prue #GBBO." Janusz moved to the UK 10 years ago and now lives on the southeast coast with his boyfriend, Simon.Elsewhere on Tuesday night's show, fans slammed the programme for not getting the pronunciations of Mexican cuisines correct.Taking to Twitter one fumed: "No attempt to pronounce anything right."While another said: "I love Bake Off, but Mexican week was a mistake.

Tacky jokes about Mexican stereotypes and no attempt to properly pronounce the language (from Noel/Matt). Hopefully it's a one-off."The Great British Bake Off airs every Tuesday night at 8pm on Channel 4 and All4.READ MORE:.
