Nigella Lawson’s Quiet Bake Off Habit Revealed by Co-Stars
Nigella Lawson has a very unusual Bake Off habit — Alison Hammond reveals what she does: ‘She’s like Cleopatra' · livemint.com

Nigella Lawson is a new judge on The Great British Bake Off.

During breaks, she reportedly goes to a small hut near the filming tent.

She reads books there and relaxes on a long chair.

Noel Fielding said she lies in a way that reminds him of Cleopatra.

Alison Hammond said the chair takes up so much space that visitors have to kneel near Lawson’s feet.

Lawson replaced Prue Leith on the judging panel.

She works alongside Paul Hollywood, who focuses more on baking technique.

Lawson says she mainly judges how food tastes, feels and looks appealing.

Noel Fielding

The Great British Bake Off presenter discussing Lawson’s routine between filming

“We have these little sort of shepherd’s huts that we all have, and they face each other, and you can just see Nigella in her shepherd’s hut reading. She’s got a stack of books, and she sort of lies like Cleopatra would lie.”
