Know Your GBBS History: Biscuit Week

​Our latest series runs down the truth behind the popular bakes featured on The Great British Baking Show. This week: Biscuits!

Biscuit Week

Biscuit Week (which to us Americans is really Cookie Week) has been a standard for GBBS since the very first season, along with Bread Week and Cake Week. This season is notable for not getting to it until nearly the end of the competition, in the quarterfinals. Every other season - including the year it was combined with "tray bakes" - it was used in a far earlier round, with the majority of seasons putting it as the second episode.
