ON your marks, get set… Bake Off!
Channel 4 last night gave the clearest sign yet that its hit baking show is about to return to our screens.
The broadcaster aired a blink-and-you'll-miss-it teaser showing the show's famous tent from a distance.
In it, Bake Off's instantly recognisable music played over scenes of the British countryside.
As a squirrel – one of the show's favourite creatures for cutaway shots – scampered away, the tent came into view.
The words 'coming soon' were then shown over a blue and white gingham tablecloth in the Channel 4 font.

Judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith will return alongside hosts Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas, plus a new batch of contestants.
