Andrew told HELLO!: "There was a time in the tent when Tom's bake was being judged and I have a real fear of wasps and this wasp or bee fell down into my shirt, and it ended with me running around the tent with Sue shouting, 'Paramedic!', and we had to stop filming and get the medical guy out."
As Selasi joined in on the anecdote, adding: "He stripped off!", Andrew continued: "Candice and Jane had to strip my shirt off so I was just topless in the middle of the tent. By the time of the judging I was so chilled because I was like, 'I've already just embarrassed myself in front of all the crew and the presenters.' I can laugh about it now but at the time I was hyperventilating."

The two bakers opened up about their favourite Bake Off moments
Selasi revealed that his funniest moment in the tent was when he burned his churros but attempted to present the mishap as cinnamon. He said: "I ended up burning churros and they were still raw and then what I used to try to do was blag my way through every bake and Mary was great but Paul would see through everything. Mary went, 'They're a bit course,' and I said, 'Nah it's the cinnamon', but Paul said, 'Nah Selasi they're burned,' and we all just burst out laughing behind the scenes."
