It was confirmed earlier this year that the This Morning presenter, 48, would be replacing Little Britain's Matt Lucas , 49, on the beloved Channel 4 programme following his departure.
To see whether she was good enough for the job, Alison was asked by producers to chat with strangers at a garden centre, with no sweet treats in sight.
Exciting: The hotly anticipated new series will air on Wednesday, giving fans the first glimpse of the new presenting line up of the hit show In a voiceover, the presenter said: 'This is breaking news, Alison Hammond is joining the team of The Great British Bake Off.' He wrote: 'Farewell Bake Off! It's been a delicious experience and I can't imagine a more fun way of spending my summers.'
