Fall is here, and with the chill creeping in, fans are missing the warmth of their favorite comfort cooking show: The Great British Bake Off (or, for Americans, The Great British Baking Show). Luckily, GBBO is back for Series 15 (AKA Season 15 OR Collection 12 on Netflix in the U.S. for some reason!), and the first episode is already out now in the UK on Channel4.com. The first episode of the new season of The Great British Bake Off will drop on Netflix this Friday. But if you can’t wait that long for a delicious serving of GBBO — or you gave up on Netflix after they kicked you off your shared account — we’ve got you covered. Here’s how to watch The Great British Bake Off free from the U.S.
When does the new season of The Great British Bake Off premiere?
The Great British Bake Off aka The Great British Baking Show premiered today at 8 p.m. BST (3 p.m. ET, 12 p.m. PT in the U.S.) and is airing as a rerun live on Channel4.com now — as of 5:35 p.m. ET.
What channel is The Great British Bake Off on in the U.S.?
In the U.S., The Great British Bake Off is known as The Great British Baking Show, airs on PBS and streams on Netflix. However, it is released in the U.S. on a delay, meaning U.S. fans have to wait several days after an episode drops in the UK. Want to watch sooner? You can watch like a true Brit with the help of a VPN.
