Despite the COVID-19 pandemic hampering most Hollywood productions and closing theaters, we will have some much-needed entertainment to look forward to this year.

The Great British Baking Show has finished filming season 11 which took place over six weeks in a secret location. Typically the show takes months to film, but nothing is the same when youโ€™re trying to work during a pandemic.

Deadline reports:

What we do know is cast and crew, including new presenter Matt Lucas, were quarantined in the run-up to the shoot to allow for closer interaction on-set.

There have also been reports that the show has moved to a more Covid-friendly location from its usual Welford Park home. Jane Millichip, chief commercial officer of Loveโ€™s parent company Sky Studios, all-but confirmed this last month. โ€œItโ€™s all happening in deep secret, somewhere in darkest deepest Britain in the shires,โ€ she told press.

The new season typically debuts in August, however, that will not happen this year. However, Millichip told journalists of the Broadcasting Press Guild in July, โ€œYou will have your victoria sponge this year.โ€
