Matt Lucas was quick to explain what was going on after two bakers went missing from the famous tent on the latest episode of The Great British Bake Off. The hit Channel 4 show is now in its third week with Matt and co-host Noel Fielding back to keep the competitor's company and viewers amused.
The baking competition kicked off with cakes earlier this month before last week saw the remaining amateur bakers tackle biscuits. But this week's episode, airing on Tuesday night (September 27), it's all about the bread. So far two of the contestants have been crowned 'Star Baker'.
And two have unfortunately had to leave, including Libyan-born Maisam, 18, from Greater Manchester, who was eliminated last week after failing to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Dame Prue Leith.

He pointed out that it was Rebs and Abdul who were missing from the group and revealed their whereabouts. "Both Rebs and Abdul are a bit under the weather this week," he said before adding: "But with your permission, we thought we’d send them both straight through to the final."
As the remaining amateur bakers laughed, Matt’s co-host Noel chimed in to clarify: "Only joking, they’re going to miss a week and hopefully they’ll be back next week."
Viewers of the Great British Bake Off were unimpressed as Paul and Prue chose Maisam to go home and flocked to social media to have their say. @diaryofgoose said: "WHAT!!! JUSTICE FOR MAISAM #GBBO." @mikrogalaxies wrote: "MAISAM WAS
