PRUE Leith has been replaced on Bake Off as Channel 4 unveil its brand new star-studded lineup for the celebrity specials.
The hit baking show's spin-off returns as a new judge joins Paul Hollywood in the famous tent.

Caroline, 72, is also a former co-owner and managing director of Leiths School of Food & Wine - Prue's business.
Alison Hammond will return as host alongside Noel Fielding, with the special filmed before his AppleTV+ show was canned over health woes.
This year Bake Off features a married couple as well as TV siblings.
Competing is a raft of actors, including Jim Howick, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Maxine Peake, Self Esteem AKA Rebecca Lucy Taylor, Meera Syal and Sophie Willan taking part.
Also donning their aprons is broadcaster Sarah Beeny, creator of Chicken Shop Date Amelia Dimoldenberg and sibling TV presenters Scarlette and Stuart Douglas.
Other household names include GMB's Kate Garraway, model and author Ellie Goldstein, Loose Women Gloria Hunniford OBE, Roman Kemp, Chris and Rosie Ramsey as well as comedians Tommy Tiernan, Adam Buxton and Phil Wang.
Celebrity Bake Off is part of C4's Stand Up to Cancer campaign for Cancer Research UK.
The show is expected to return this Spring.
