GBBO viewers FURIOUS over this year’s winner and reignite ‘fix’ claims

Obviously, this contains spoilers from the final of GBBO.

Final warning to look away before we reveal the winner of this year’s series – you’ve been warned. Last night, we sat down to see out the latest season of The Great British Bake Off and for us, the right person won. Yes, Rahul was crowned the winner of this year’s show and now, another year of Bake Off is over.

After completing his landscape showstopper, Rahul’s name was announced and the Bake Off cake stand was presented. Rahul’s loyal fans were quick to take to Twitter to share their congratulations, with many viewers beaming with the result.

RAHUL WON AND DESERVED IT!

SUCK IT HATERS! ??????#GBBOFinal #KissMyBrownAss — Abby (@abbyckumar) October 30, 2018

However, it looks like those who were disappointed with the result needed some time to mull it all over before sharing their frustrations online – and they were plentiful. The main complaint seemed to be that the entire series had been fixed to ensure Rahul’s victory and people were very, VERY angry about it.

Nope. No. I'm not having that. No. #GBBO

Oh... Prue & Paul agreed to give Rahul the 15 minutes he lost at the end to catch up. #Fix #GBBO #GBBOFinal

Right I'm fuming already why does #rahoul get an extra 15mins? When in the history of bake off amidst disaster has anyone got extra time #favouritism #BakeOff

#gbbo are we all just going to stand by while Kim Joy just got robbed...I say we riot. Rahul should have been knocked out last week and the week before #scandalous #fix

Rahul winning the Great British Bake Off, he should have been out weeks ago. It was clear that Paul picked him out right from the start, #fix #GBBO
