He's very much the favourite baker on extra slice too. I think he works very hard at home in between the shows because he has improved a lot too

Thanks Baz, I'd almost Forgotten 
to post the Radio Times blurb for tonight's episode:
It’s the quarter-finals and the Tent of Dreams is looking a little empty, with just five remaining bakers rattling around its cavernous interior. “My god, where is everyone?” says a contestant in mock horror.
In yet another Bake Off first we have Forgotten Bakes week, where the amateurs must bring forth versions of bakes with their roots in history. Like the Bedfordshire Clanger, which is a bit like a Cornish pasty, only sausage roll-shaped and with two fillings at either end, sweet and savoury. “Conceptually, I think it works really well,” says a baker, and you instantly hope he’s going to muck it up. (so he's either going to make a clanger or drop a clanger
)The technical challenge is a baroque piece of theatre that leads to much head-shaking and comments along the lines of, “Who has ever heard of this before?” and, “I hate this so much… that can’t be right, it’s disgusting.”
Summary
The remaining five bakers step back in time for Forgotten Bakes Week, facing the test of baking with unfamiliar recipes, with places in the semi-final at stake. They start with a sweet and savoury signature challenge, before Prue Leith sets a boozy technical and, for their final challenge, the bakers must produce an elaborate sponge showstopper that once graced the dining tables of high society. Sandi Toksvig and Noel Fielding are on hand to help the bakers calm their nerves.
Thanks El Loro ....can’t believe we are down to the last 5 already though 
The Bedfordshire clanger was designed to be an all in one meal for agricultural workers with the main course at one end and pudding at the other. Originally the outside, a suet crust dumpling, wasn't intended to be eaten by the workers as they didn't need to wash their hands as they ate the fillings. Traditionally the top of the sweet end was scored with a few lines so that the workers knew which end was which.
