Bake Off pulled from screens tonight in fresh schedule shake-up set to leave fans fuming
The Great British Bake Off will be pulled from screens tonight in a fresh schedule shake-up set to leave fans fuming.
The hit Channel 4 baking show usually airs at 8pm on Tuesdays.
But tonight, it will not air in its usual slot because of international football coverage.
In its place, England's match against Italy in the Euro 2024 qualifying match will air from 7pm until 10.15pm.
It means Bake Off fans will have to wait an extra day to get their latest fix from the famous tent.
The fourth episode will now air on Wednesday, October 18 at 8pm, a day later than usual.

Last week's episode saw the bakers tackle Bread Week, with the contestants desperate to impress the 'King of Bread', Paul, 57.
Sadly, Abbi was unable to do so, and became the latest baker to be sent home.

Talking about her experience on the show, she said: "I’m going to take away a real sense of achievement of being in the series and also of defining myself as a baker — I feel I have a proper baking style now, and have discovered what I love to do the most and what I am best at."
She added: "I knew it was coming and you know what I am really proud of myself. I never thought I would be able to do this, it has given me such a massive confidence boost and I have met such amazing people."
The Great British Bake Off continues on Wednesday, October 18 at 8pm on Channel 4.
