Britains Best Bakery is a national search for the best independent, family-run or community bakery. Bakeries from all over the UK compete in a series of baking challenges that put their skills to the test and make viewers' mouths water.

Contestants from the West Midlands compete for a place in the regional final. A house husband makes a smelly scone, a brother-and-sister team creates a cake using root vegetables and a traditional baker gets into a sticky situation when he rustles up caramel apple crumble tart.

The best of the contenders from Wales and central England battle it out, creating an afternoon tea with a mix of both sweet and savoury items, and attempting a layered lime and coconut cake, all against the clock. Judges Mich Turner and Peter Sidwell must decide which baker goes through to National Finals week.
