I didn't expect to like this version of the Great British Bake Off, simply because I feared that, being child centered, it would be cutesy and condescending. But what I found was the kids are fun to watch, and the judges are fair and gentle but not pandering to the kids, but encouraging.
And then there's Harry Hill.
I have never cringed so hard. He is an embarrassment to the show and himself. When a nine year old seems to slump in a weary "oh god here he comes again" at Harry's approach, you know he's the fly in the cookie dough I doubt I'll watch any future episodes and it's a shame it's down to one person that could easily be replaced. His jokes are forced, he can't read a room, and kids don't like him.
