Paul Hollywood addresses 'walking out' of Bake Off tent after Prue Leith's rude comment

ok.co.uk:

Paul Hollywood has shared how his Great British Bake-Off co-star Prue Leith's cheeky sense of humour often leaves him red-faced. "The problem is, it's quite a tactile thing, bread-making or whatever, so certain shapes can look a bit rude on camera," he confessed to Netflix.Throw in Prue's naughty jokes and you've got a recipe for hilarity.

He remembered one instance where Prue's saucy comment about a beaver-shaped cake had everyone in fits of laughter. "She's embarrassing.That's what she is," Paul admitted. "I mean, Prue will say it, and I'm sure she's saying it deliberately.

We were doing sausage rolls, and she said to a guy, 'I don't think your sausage is big enough,' and I just stopped and I said, 'I'm sorry, I've got to leave for 10 minutes,' so I walked out the tent." Paul also revealed that due to the show's long-standing success, contestants have picked up on his and Prue's favourite flavours and tailor their bakes accordingly. "They know I like key lime pie, they know I like donuts, they know I like crème [pâtissière], they know I like toffee and caramels and all this stuff, so they'll play on that and go for the flavours that I like, or Prue likes...

So that's bakers doing their homework, which is what I would do if I was in this." He cheekily admits that if he were in the competition, he'd be aiming for a "Hollywood Handshake" every week.
