It was an emotional first episode of The Great British Bake Off as contestant Amos cried upon hearing he would be the first baker to leave the show.
The 43-year-old struggled through the showstopper challenge, as judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith asked them to make an “animal cake”.
Amos made a whale-shaped cake but failed to impress the judges, who told him it was “bone dry.
After his elimination, Amos said: “It was the showstopper that stopped my show. As soon as I heard my name I came out of my body.”
He then broke down in tears and walked away from the camera for a moment before returning and saying: “Sorry, I’m fine.”
