had. She simply couldn’t bear to see these poor, helpless amateur bakers blunder when she could help. They were so sweet and eager. She became attached to them all. So sometimes she turned on an oven if a baker forgot or saved the biscuits from burning, the custard from curdling. She’d thought no one had noticed.

However, she had steel in her as well as warm milk, and she spoke quite sternly to her new co-host. “Then we must make absolutely certain that nothing goes wrong this season. You will practice every recipe before the show. Learn what makes a good crumpet, loaf of bread and Victoria sponge. You will study harder than you ever have in your life, Jonathon. I will help you where I can, but I won’t go down with you.”

He leveled her with an equally steely gaze. “All right. And you won’t interfere. If some show contestant forgets to turn their oven on, you don’t make it happen by magic.”

Oh dear. So they did know all about her little intervention in Season Two.

“And if somebody’s caramelized sugar starts to burn, you do not save it.”

Oh dear. And that.

“Fine. I will let them flail and fail, poor dears.”

“And I’ll learn enough to get by. We’ll manage, Elspeth.”

The word banishment floated in the air between them like the soft breeze.

“We’ll have to.”
