The Great British Bake Off's Prue Leith has revealed that she's constantly being asked questions about her fellow judge Paul Hollywood.

Leith has been working alongside master breadmaker Paul since the reality show moved to Channel 4, when she joined Bake Off as a replacement for original judge Dame Mary Berry.

While Prue has an esteemed culinary career and has had plenty of notable Bake Off moments of her own, she admitted on Loose Women that the "most common questions" she gets are about Paul.

"The commonest [questions] are, 'Are Paul Hollywod's eyes that blue?'" she quipped. "Paul Hollywood's eyes, Paul Hollywood's tan are the chief things.

"A lot about colour and specs and stuff.”

While Paul is unlikely to be leaving the Bake Off tent any time soon, Matt Lucas recently confirmed he has quit the show to focus on other projects.

Prue later told Saga magazine she's "very sad" to see Matt leaving Bake Off, though she stopped short of offering any predictions on who might replace him as co-presenter alongside Noel Fielding.

"Not a clue – although who wouldn’t want to work on Bake Off? It’s the best job on television. It absolutely changed my life," she said.
