Great British Bake Off fans have reacted with dismay... and a lot of humour... to the news Paul Hollywood will move to Channel 4, but Mary Berry isn't

Following the shock news that Mary Berry has stepped down from her role in The Great British Bake Off tent, her co-judge Paul Hollywood revealed he is staying on the series when it moves from the BBC to Channel 4.

The baker, 50, said in a statement that he is “delighted” to be continuing his role on the popular series.
