Synopsis

Six contestants. The nation's favourite baking show. And a prize worth killing for...

For six amateur bakers, competing in Bake Week is a dream come true. But for the show's famous host, Betsy Martin, it's more than a competition. It's her legacy. As she welcomes contestants to her ancestral home, Grafton Manor, she's excited to discover who will have what it takes win the ultimate prize: The Golden Spoon. Quickly, though, things start to go wrong...

The contestants are jittery - they've heard strange noises in the manor at night. Betsy is irate - a new co-host has arrived, and he's out for her spotlight. Then, the sabotage begins. At first, it's small. Sugar switched for salt. A hob turned too high. But when a body is discovered, everyone becomes a suspect. Because for someone at Bake Week it's time to settle old scores...
