Fans of the long-running show will be delighted to see the show back in its original home with judge Paul admitting it was ’emotional’ to be back.
He admitted: "I love filming at Welford and we’ve been away for a couple of years,” he explained.
"I sat on the grass, not far from the tents. It’s a very reflective place and Bake Off’s been a big part of my life for quite a while now.
