Mel Giedroyc has revealed what she thinks about Noel Fielding taking over from in the tent on The Great British Bake Off.
Appearing on today's (June 8) Lorraine, Mel said she's 'thinking' of the new batch of bakers and what's happening with the new series, which she reckons will be 'something different'.
Good or bad different, we don't know yet, but Mel was full of praise for new host Noel.
What to read next
'I'm extremely fond of Fielding, he's absolutely terrific and I love the idea of him being in the Bake Off tent,' she enthused.
'It just makes me laugh. It'll be very good to see how he deals with a croquembouche, do you know what I mean? In all ways. How he describes it, how he just embraces the whole thing. He's great.'
Perhaps he'll break out in a song.

And Mel even gave Noel some sage advice before he started filming. 'I said to him, two words: Noel, elasticated trousers, when he started that job. Literally, literally,' she recalled.

Smart thinking.
Noel will be hosting the Channel 4 version alongside Sandi Toksvig with Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith on judging duties.
We reckon Noel might have already made his impact on the new Bake Off as it was revealed last month that the tent has been given a makeover, with the pastel blue and green benches being repainted lime green, purple and turqoise.
What would Mary think?!
The Great British Bake Off is expected to air later this year on Channel 4.
