The Great British Bake Off was given an official trigger warning for the first time in its 13-year history - and it's left fans of the show rather puzzled.
A Great British Bake Off Halloween special was considered unsettling enough to receive a trigger warning for its spooky edition.
Presenters Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas were seen in Halloween costumes, whilst the set was adorned with thematic decorations like balloons and skeletons. Contestants, including ultimate winner Syabira Yusoff, crafted apple and pumpkin creations for judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood. Channel 4 chiefs have owned up to an oversight after mistakenly slapping a warning label on The Great British Bake Off, which has now been retracted with the admission that it was a blunder. A Channel 4 representative explained: "The Great British Bake Off is a family show, loved by audiences of all ages. Any guidance warnings were applied in error."
