The seventh series of The Great British Bake Off aired from 24 August 2016, with twelve contestants competing to be crowned the series 7 winner.[1][2]
This series was the last to be broadcast on BBC One, as the production company Love Productions opted to move the show to Channel 4.[3] As such, it was also the last series to feature Sue Perkins, Mel Giedroyc, and Mary Berry.[4][5]
In the United States, the seventh series was broadcast as the fourth season on PBS and streamed as Collection 4 on Netflix.
Sue Perkins does not appear in episode 2. When the episode was being filmed in April 2016 she needed time off to deal with a bereavement. She does appear vocally in the narration.[6]
