All series, we've tuned into The Great British Bake Off to marvel at the mouthwatering desserts and incredible bakes that belong in art galleries.
We've seen Ian revealing he eats roadkill, we've fallen in love with Tamal and we've followed Nadiya's wonderful facial expressions right through until the final.
Tonight, Digital Spy was, for the final time, keeping an eye on Twitter to see what you all thought about the final bakes:
The final was still full of the usual Bake Off banter:
Can't believe all those other contestants died after making the show. #Gbbo

Now for the highlight of the tournament: Mary harvests the losers' organs & uses their divine power to regenerate for another winter. #Gbbo

New BBC Three prison-set sitcom Crims, which starts tonight at 9pm, has plenty of Inbetweeners-style fun going for it...
There's an old turn of phrase that goes 'with friends like these, who needs enemies?'. It's also the first thing on Luke's mind when he's arrested for being an unwitting getaway driver for Jason, his girlfriend's brother. Sentenced to two years at Sunnybank Young Offenders Institution, Luke (played by Welsh comedian Elis James) wastes no time at all in making enemies of Marcel, the Twilight obsessed big dog. Now he's needing all the friends he could get, even wide-eyed idiot Jason.
BBC three's Crims is a new sitcom created and written by musical comedian Adam Kay and Grandma's House co-scribe Dan Swimer. 'It's an odd couple sitcom that just happens to be set in a prison' explains Adam. 'We started off with the Luke and Jason, establishing their relationship. Then...
