Nigella Lawson is the new judge beside Paul Hollywood. She replaced Prue Leith, who said in January 2026 that she was stepping down after nine years. The series also added Audience Choice Week, where viewers sent in the ideas for all three challenges, from a cheesecake made with a relative to a bake the contestants could wear.
