TELLY favourite Alison Hammond has revealed how joining The Great British Bake Off team was like a \u201choliday\u201d from toxic This Morning.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alison, 48, said filming in the tent over summer was an escape from the drawn-out scandal over Phillip Schofield\u2019s affair with a young runner at the ITV show.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

Brummie Alison, who landed the job after GBBO presenter Matt Lucas quit, said it was a relief to join co-host Noel Fielding, 50, and judges Prue Leith, 83, and Paul Hollywood, 57, in a \u201csafe\u201d space.<\/p>\n

It was in contrast to the atmosphere at This Morning where she herself said what Schofield, 61, did was \u201cwrong\u201d. Co-host Holly Willoughby, 42, confessed to feeling \u201cshaken, troubled and let down\u201d.<\/p>\n

Asked about the difference between the shows, Alison said: \u201cIt\u2019s like being on holiday \u2014 it\u2019s wonderful, free, and you feel safe.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t have to think politically about anything. It\u2019s just a happy and safe show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former Big Brother star Alison said she only considered going for the job after \u201cTwitter went berserk\u201d about her replacing Matt.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cI never dreamt that big. I never allowed myself to dream this big.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was chosen after two auditions and quickly proved a hit on set. Her excitedness, however, also caused chaos in the kitchen.<\/p>\n

Noel said: \u201cMy favourite thing Alison does is eating the bakers\u2019 ingredients they definitely need and have measured out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paul told the Radio Times: \u201cOn the tour of the cakes in the first episode, Alison was a little bit over-exuberant and ate everything.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe felt a bit sick at the end and said, \u2018I\u2019m not doing that again\u2019. Of course, she did the following week.\u201d<\/p>\n

Noel revealed that hosting with Alison was \u201ceasier\u201d than with Matt, who left to write with long-term collaborator David Walliams.<\/p>\n

Noel said: \u201cWith Matt it was a bit weird, because we\u2019re mates and are probably the same low-status person from our respective double acts, where he has [David] Walliams and I have Julian [Barratt].<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was more difficult to find how we worked together, but we managed.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlison\u2019s hilarious, but she\u2019s not a comedian trying to make jokes, which made it a bit easier. It was effortless and we laughed a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Bake Off, which has its first deaf contestant, is back on Channel 4 at 8pm on September 26.<\/p>\n
