When to watch The Great British Baking Show

If you love reality show cooking competitions, then this is a special time of the year. That’s because the arrival of fall means the return of The Great British Baking Show, and we’re going to tell you when and where you can watch it!

The Great British Baking Show is actually better known internationally as The Great British Bake Off. It turns out that Bake Off is copyrighted in the U.S. by Pillsbury, hence the name change over here. Fans in America can stream the series on Netflix, and it has consistently been one of the best British TV shows on the platform.

There’s a simple premise behind the ongoing popularity of this show. Each season, amateur bakers go head-to-head in order to show off their skills and demonstrate their culinary mastery to celebrity judges. The Great British Bake Off premiered in 2010, and it is about to enter its 14th season later this month. This season, Alison Hammond is taking over from Matt Lucas as the new co-host with Noel Fielding. And of course, there’s a brand new set of bakers who are ready to prove themselves to the world.

Now, it’s time to answer the burning question of when you can watch The Great British Baking Show. And if you know your way around the kitchen, you may want to recreate some of this season’s dishes for yourself.

When can we watch new episodes of The Great British Baking Show?

How many episodes will there be this season?

It’s a 10-week competition, so there will be the same number of episodes released weekly. In the U.K., the finale will arrive on November 28. And assuming that Netflix maintains a weekly schedule of its own, then the season finale will have its streaming premiere on December 1.

Beyond that, it may be another year before a full season of The Great British Baking Show arrives. But the previous seasons remain on Netflix for your streaming enjoyment.

Watch The Great British Baking Show on Netflix. New episodes begin streaming on September 29.

If you like fractions, one-sixth of the year is nearly complete. Netflix is already advertising the list of movies departing at the end of the month. One of the biggest titles leaving the service is Inception, Christopher Nolan's Oscar-winning heist thriller. The Other Guys, Oblivion, Love Again, Scooby-Doo, and Legends of the Fall are all leaving by March 1.

The show must go on at the streamer. However, there is still time to watch these departing movies. Make some time to watch one of the three movies below: a mid-budget action pic with a late Marvel star, an epic at sea, and a sweet coming-of-age comedy.

The 50 best Netflix drama shows right now (April 2025)
Minka Kelly and Josh Duhamel in Ransom Canyon.

April had two late additions to the best Netflix drama shows, and we suspect that at least one of these series is going to stick around long term. That show is Ransom Canyon, a romantic Western that's dominated the Netflix series chart since it debuted earlier this month. It's a nice change of pace for series star Josh Duhmael, whose previous Netflix series, Jupiter's Legacy, was one of the most costly failures in the history of the streamer.
This month's other shiny new addition, The Gardner, was designed to be a standalone miniseries. But it's also struck a chord with Netflix subscribers. That's exactly what Netflix was hoping for, because the hits keep people coming back. You can find these series and the rest of the best drama shows on Netflix below.

He's mourning the loss of his wife and child, struggling to keep his ranch afloat, and fighting a corporation that wants to move in and buy up all of the property it can in Ransom Canyon.

The best romance shows on Netflix right now
Willa Fitzgerald in Pulse.

Love is in the air on Netflix, probably because romance remains one of the most popular genres on the streamer. Between rom-coms, romantic dramas, and romance shows, Netflix has kind of cornered the market. So much so that it's no longer enough for Netflix to have Grey's Anatomy; it has a very obvious updated take on Grey's Anatomy called Pulse. Fans may prefer the original model, but Pulse has been a very strong performer since its debut.
Our second pick for the month, The Lady's Companion, is a Spanish romance series that hasn't broken out yet. But this one has real potential. You can find these new additions alongside the rest of the best romance shows on Netflix below.
