Noel Fielding’s Spokeswoman Says He Will Return To ‘Great British Bake Off’
deadline.comNoel Fielding will return to host this year’s Great British Bake Off, according to his spokeswoman.

That show will not be salvaged and reports stated that Fielding had “failed to come to work.” Fielding’s spokeswoman has since issued a statement saying: “There has been absolutely no discussion about Noel stepping down from Bake Off.
