Baking strengths and weaknesses: "I would say my strengths are certainly cake related and bread is not the strongest aspect of my baking but you know what they say... practice makes perfect!"
What would be your favourite type of Showstopper to bake?: "I would LOVE to make a Showstopper of a water fountain... with actual moving water. I have the picture in my head but no idea where I would start!"
How did it feel entering the famous tent for the first time?: "Just thinking of the tent gives me goosebumps, seeing it for the first time was one of those pinch-me moments. What made it even more special was seeing it for the first time with my fellow bakers. It's a bond that we will all cherish forever."
The Great British Bake Off airs Tuesdays at 8pm on Channel 4.
