The Great British Bake Off finally crowned its winner tonight after whittling down 12 bakers over 10 weeks of intensive competition.<\/p>\n
Matty Edgell, from Peterborough, won the coveted cake stand after impressing judges over the past two and a half months of the contest and looked visibly shocked when host Alison Hammond announced his name.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old PE and Science Teacher was inspired to bake after his late nan made him a teddy bear cake for his fourth birthday.<\/p>\n
He beat off stiff competition from fellow finalists Dan, 42, and Josh, 27, to triumph and his showstopper was deemed so good that Prue Leith went back for seconds.<\/p>\n
However, while he proved a popular choice many fans felt that Josh would have been a more deserving victor.<\/p>\n

Josh clearly had the best bakes this week #GBBO #GBBO2023.”<\/p>\n @Cjbex chimed in: “Nooooo I\u2019m actually gutted, Josh deserved to win so much #gbbo.” @Shaw91Matt concurred saying: “Matty is a great bloke but based on what we\u2019ve just seen, Josh was robbed #GBBO.”<\/p>\n @DrPJJB opined: “Not convinced the right baker was crowned this evening Josh was my winner from Day 1 Excellent series to watch however\u2026 #GBBO.”<\/p>\n @BeckyMollon simply said: “Josh was robbed #GBBO.” Meanwhile, @Laura__McNulty said: “Pru and Paul were far too harsh on Josh there, you could tell it properly deflated him #GBBO.”<\/p>\n @wildesttiptoes also felt for Josh although they were championing Matty throughout. They said: “I was rooting for Matty through the whole series (we’re from the same city) so I’m so happy for him. I am disappointed for Josh though because he had been the most consistent #GBBO.”<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> <\/p>\n
