'The Great British Baking Show' Collection 10, Episode 2 Recap: Biscuit Week

It's Biscuit Week in the tent on The Great British Baking Show because Cookie Week does not fly around these parts. That means it's time to change the song too. Everyone sing along with me: "B is for Biscuit, that's good enough for me/Oh, biscuit, biscuit, biscuit starts with B!" Biscuit week is one of the traditional Big Three the show kicks off with, only moving down the chain from the first three episodes once, way back in the very confusing BBC Season 3 which was PBS Season 5 but also Netflix's GBBO: The Beginnings Season 1. proof, in case we needed it that nobody involved in that debacle talked to each other.

As for the "Cake vs. Biscuit" debate that opens this week's episode, even though it was an adorable puppy, the Cake vs. Biscuit issue is real in the U.K. Despite Brexit finalizing, the European Union tax system is still in effect, and there is a tax on biscuits that does not apply to cakes, causing Jaffa Cakes to claim cakehood despite obviously being chocolate covered biscuits. This issue went to the highest court in the land, which ruled that Jaffa Cakes could deny their biscuithood because their moisture content was greater than 12 percent.

The more you know everyone! Now let's get down to the sugar and flour and cookie up some biscuits for tea.
