The Great British Baking Show: Holidays season 7 release date is finalized by the creators. The premier episode drops on December 9, 2024, on Netflix as families worldwide prepare for Christmas festivities and baking cakes.
We have seen Netflix struggle with the whole scheduling chaos for the flagship series previously where they often miss the deadline for a Christmas special which ultimately makes them late for their New Year's episode.
The timeframe is missed when these editions end up releasing days after Christmas and New Year when the holiday spirit is over. Well, Netflix decided to become quite creative to address this issue and came up with a solution to release last year's holiday episodes during the next holiday season.
Given the fact that the hosts are the same for both the holiday seasons, it is not easy to differentiate between the past year's holiday specials to the present year's. The platform has made these episodes in that way. For The Great British Baking Show: Holidays season 7, we will witness returning contestants for the Christmas edition.
The Great British Baking Show: Holidays Season 7 Contestants
As for the New Year's special, Netflix oscillates between contestants who have competed before and celebrities from the United Kingdom. This all sums up to indicate that if the holiday special is released in December, regardless of when they are filmed, the audience tunes in and enjoys.
Thus, we can expect what we are about to see in The Great British Baking Show: Holidays season 7 based on the 2023 season. It will feature Sophie from Season 8 (Netflix's Collection 5) and Dan from Season 9. The list includes Linda (Season 11), Carole (Season 13), Amelia (Season 10), and George (Season 12).
Channel 4 has revealed the lineup for the Christmas 2024 and New Year's 2025 specials. Next December, Christmas Special will have U.K. celebrities. American audiences might not be familiar with their faces. The list has Dean Gaffney and Natalie Cassidy from the show EastEnders.
From Coronation Street, Shobna Gulati and Chriss Bissona are invited. Sheree Murphy from Hollyoaks will also be a guest for the episodes. These names are quite well known to the people in the UK but the international viewers might not have heard about them.
The Great British Baking Show: Holidays 2025 Lineup
As for the New Year 2025 edition, Netflix has decided to put former contestants as candidates. If you remember when the show was owned by BBC, then these stars will be familiar to you. The list has Lea Harris who featured in season 1 of the show which aired in 2010. That installment was never released in the United States but can be streamed via Roku.
Joining Lea will be James from Season 3. This season was released in the U.S. as The Great British Baking Show: The Beginning on PBS. And then we will have Norman (UK Season 5, US Season 1 on PBS) and lastly, Kevin Flynn (Season 13).
The Great British Baking Show: Holidays brings back cast members from years ago and thus, ignites the nostalgic feelings. It's like listening to an old song or smelling an old perfume and you reminisce the memories and feelings you once had that time.
Netflix has a cozy lineup for the holidays and the episodes are already announced. But before we move on to the next, we will always have last year's festive episode to explore. It is high time the audience switched on their TVs and enjoyed the holiday-themed baking fun.
