Liam on Bake Off last year.

I have discovered that Liam Charles, who finished fifth last year on Bake Off, is now co-hosting Bake Off: The Professionals, and the show just got 1000% more watchable for me. Look at his faaaace! He’s so goofy and adorable on camera, and equally lovable in the interview linked below.

Interview with Liam in The Guardian newspaper, from which these photos were taken.

George Alagiah “Mixed Race Britannia”

Two posts in one day is unprecedented, I think, but I thought that members of this community might be interested in a series that will be airing on BBC2 in the UK starting at 9 PM on Thursday, 6 October. It’s called “Mixed Race Britannia” and it will be hosted by George Alagiah, who is Sri Lankan-British and in a mixed-race marriage.

Persons outside the UK may be able to view the series through the BBC iPlayer using a browser that can feign a UK location. I don't, of course, suggest that anyone attempt this. *hands in pockets, whistling*
