The Great British Bake Off has been renewed for a further three years until 2024.
Last year’s final was watched by 11.5 million Brits, a 41.8% share of the viewing audience.
The current series is averaging 8.7 million UK viewers per episode making it second only to Strictly Come Dancing as the most watched unscripted show of the year.
Richard McKerrow, Chief Executive Love Productions says: “We are delighted to have extended Bake Off’s stay on Channel 4 for another three years. Love Productions’ long-term commitment with Channel 4 illustrates a deep, warm, mutual respect and partnership which enables us to bring Bake Off to the widest audience possible.”
Ian Katz, Chief Content Officer at Channel 4 says: “We are thrilled that Channel 4 will continue to serve up Bake Off’s unique combination of warmth, humour and soggy bottoms for years to come. Bake Off is all about optimism, celebrating eccentricity and bringing the nation together – precisely what a publicly owned Channel 4 is here to do.”
The agreement also includes Bake Off: An Extra Slice, Junior Bake Off, Bake Off: The Professionals, The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer and The Great Pottery Throw Down.
Titles screen in Australia on Foxtel.

Love how in your two main renewal stories of the day it’s a little old baking show from Britain that outrates the top new US network drama of the season.
