This series of The Great British Bake Off will be the last, which means Christmas Bake Off will probably also be a goodbye special.

Breaking News
The Great British Bake Off is leaving the BBC. Love Productions did not accept the BBC's revised offer.
If I was the BBC I would not use Love Productions for any future commission. |

wonder if this will have any implications for broadcasters
In August 2016, NBCUniversal, whose subsidiary Universal Pictures entered a distribution deal with the live-acton DreamWorks studio via Amblin Partners, acquired DreamWorks Animation for $3.8 billion.[65][6] DreamWorks Animation's distribution contract with 20th Century Fox will conclued in 2018, after which Universal is expected to handle future releases, starting with The Croods 2.[66][67] |

I had a go and you have to seriously think about what is best where. Do you have any Only Fools And Horses, My Family, The Vicar Of Dibley or The Royle Family repeats in your schedule? I think those will be back this year.

Regarding Bake Off the BBC have a clause that if they lose the rights no other broadcaster can show a series in 2017

Mary and Paul have already said they won't do it if it's not the BBC. Love Productions must be mad without Mary and Paul nobody will want it anyway.

Christmas bake off know, I actually wouldnt be surprised if they put it on BBC2, the week before Christmas week, and put it on after Newsnight.
.Makes you wonder, if the BBC had its way, the rest of this series, would be tucked away somewhere |

I think the BBC will play hard ball with the 4 stars and say if you go then thats the end of you on the Beeb
They could probably make a new show like the Bake Off anyway. Love Productions are just crazy. |

Next August on BBC1:
Paul and Mary's Baking Challenge Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry judge a brand new baking competition where each week 12 contestants compete to bake a spectacular cookery masterpiece based on Paul and Mary's own recipes. Presented by Mel and Sue, the contestants will be judged on their efforts and after the masterpiece round, they will be allowed to create a freedom bake where they can use anything and bake anything. One contestant will be crowned Premier Baker and another will be sent home. |

I loved the Dad's Army docu-drama last year, David Croft did lots of sitcoms could easily make The Hi-De-Hi Story or Are You Being Served?.
