Meet The Great British Bake Off 2024 contestant Gill Howard, including her age, hometown, occupation and a Q&A.

Gill Howard

Age: 53

Hometown: Lancashire

Occupation: Senior category manager

Baking strengths and weaknesses: "Attention to detail - both my blessing and my curse!"

What would be your favourite type of Showstopper to bake?: "I made my wedding cake back in the day which was 7 cakes with sugar flowers – it even had a light! The longest I have spent on a cake more recently is about 30 hours to make a golf bag cake complete with clubs. So I would say something that included lots of different baking with some element of structure required with intricate decoration."

How did it feel entering the famous tent for the first time?: "I had been calm and fine until we got to visit our benches for the first time, I was at the back with Mike and we just had this moment where we looked at each other in disbelief and just started laughing – we were hugging and laughing with tears running down our faces for quite a while!"

The Great British Bake Off airs Tuesdays at 8pm on Channel 4. body check tags ::
