There are always notable characters on The Great British Bake Off, and it seems there is already one stand-out star in the tent.

Twitter was seriously loving haphazard Val Stones, a self-confessed Ed Sheeran fan and fitness fanatic, who keeps herself moving and grooving while baking.

The 66-year-old former primary school headteacher had a few minor catastrophes during cake week, including forgetting to put the sugar into one of her cakes, and also coming in 10th place in the Jaffa Cake technical challenge.

She also almost put cornflour into one of her bakes, mistaking it for icing sugar.

But her incredibly sunny disposition, good humour and dance moves won over plenty of people on Twitter as they begged for her not to leave the competition yet.

Luckily for them, she has stayed in for another week.
