Kate has been one of the big success stories after her stint on the programme she ditched her job soon after the show’s conclusion and trained as a professional chef at Leiths in London. However, pastry week would be her time to be eliminated, coming sixth overall, with her Neapolitan and Lemon Meringue Éclairs not enough to progress to the next week. Kate Henry was in the first series to be broadcast on BBC One Since her time on the show, she has undergone somewhat of a transformation with a new hairdo to the one that viewers saw at the time. She made it to week eight but biscuit week proved a step too far with her trio of challenges (Cheese and Pickle Crackers signature, Chocolate Teacakes technical and Gingerbread Buckingham Palace showstopper) not enough to make the final four. Our next Sussex baker came in series three, which was won by current Strictly star John Whaite, in the form of Cathryn Dresser.Ĭathryn was a shop assistant from the village of Pease Pottage in West Sussex and also consistently impressed the judges. In 2018, Miranda became the Food Columnist for NFU Countryside Magazine, encouraging seasonal and Great British Food, with recipes, tips, foodie inspiration and a peek into her own country life she lives with her husband and three small children in the pretty South Downs National Park. Post-Bake Off, she wrote a book, “Biscuit”, that was published in 2012 before her second book, “Bake Me a Cake as Fast as You Can” was published in 2014.Īs her personal website states, she also combines her love of food with her management and leadership skills to create and run bespoke corporate team days while her blog of recipes and baking ideas has attracted a keen following. Miranda impressed throughout, with Mary Berry even remarking that she reminded her of herself when she was younger, before coming third in the final having been eliminated after her Lemon Cupcakes signature. One of the finalists in 2010 was Miranda, a Food Buyer for Marks & Spencer from Midhurst in West Sussex. A time when the Great British Bake Off was in its infancy, the very first series saw just six episodes on BBC Two and had an average audience of just 2.77 million - compared to 10.87 million for last year’s edition.
