How did you react to the news that you would be on the show?
“I dreamed about myself in the tent all the time and I dreamed about meeting some ex-bakers all the time. I was at home when I got the phone call from one of the team, and I was shocked because I had applied 4 times and no success in the past.”
What are your strengths and weaknesses as a baker?
“I am good at everything I have known and practiced. The weaknesses are I am a perfectionist and I get really frustrated when things are not perfect.”
Was it surreal meeting Noel and Alison for the first time?
“I love them both. They are so nice. They came and talked to us, and to give us a big hug first time when they saw us hanging around.”
How did you feel about your first judging from Paul and Prue?
“I was extremely nervous and so worried that they wouldn’t like my cakes.”
The Great British Bake Off begins Tuesday night at 8pm on Channel 4.
