Tamal, Nadiya and Ian left the tent for the final time.

Ian shed some tears, Nadiya froze her fingers, and the unflappable Tamal got in a bit of a flap.

But in the end, after jokes about round buns and soggy bottoms, the winner was announced.

Nadiya was named the winner of the Great British Bake Off 2015 by Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry.

Finalist Tamal came out as gay last week and said he was looking for a boyfriend.

After he came out, the Daily Mail got its knickers in a bunch over the “PC brigade”, suggesting semi-finalist “Poor Flora wasn’t PC enough for Beeb”.

Sue Perkins and co-presenter Mel Giedroyc earlier this year revealed how they nearly spent a night in the cells after pulling a prank on Paul Hollywood.
