“The Great American Baking Show’”s Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith Reveal What They Love (and Don’t Love) About Americans

Hollywood and Leith appeared on an episode of PEOPLE in 10 to discuss the latest season of 'The Great American Baking Show'

Britain’s most distinguished baking pros have some thoughts on Americans.

Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith appeared on an episode of PEOPLE in 10 to discuss the latest season of The Great American Baking Show — and their likes and dislikes when it comes to the U.S.

For Hollywood, it’s the amount of food customers get served in America. “I’ve never seen anything so big!” he says. “In the States, a starter size is like a buffet in the U.K. And a main course would feed a family for a month.”

Leith, on the other hand, didn’t have much to fault her friends across the pond.

“I’m rather a fan of America. I love Americans. They’re so open and friendly,” says Leith. “They’re not embarrassed to be slightly over the top.”

Instead of agreeing with Leith, Hollywood says that’s actually one of his pet peeves when he hosts the American show. “I’d like to add something. One of the things that winds me up a little bit was the ‘Whoop! Whoop! Yay!’ I just sort of roll by eyes,” he sighs, referencing the American contestants cheering in the tent.

Leith challenges him again: “Oh I like the attention. I like a bit of whooping and hollering frankly.”

There is something else about the contestants who join The Great American Baking Show. Hollywood has been more generous with his famous handshake (which indicates a phenomenal bake). So it begs the question: Is he going soft after all these years or are the contestants just getting better?

“What do you think? The contestants are getting better,” Hollywood responds. "That’s why there are more handshakes. The bakers’ status now, especially in the States, has gone up ten-fold in the last three years for sure.”

Also during PEOPLE in 10, Hollywood spoke about the attention he gets as a “bread-sex symbol.”

“Listen, people haven’t seen me in the morning," he laughs. "I look terrible in the morning. I look terrible in the afternoon and the morning as well.”

Fans are quick to claim that their family members share a resemblance with Hollywood, he reveals. “The amount of women I’ve met who want to show pictures of their husbands to me…they look nothing like me! But I go with it,” he adds with a laugh.

The Roku Channel The Great American Baking Show

The second season of The Great American Baking Show will be available on the Roku Channel on Friday, May 24, bringing eight bakers from across the country to the famed English tent for a chance at taking the title of America’s Best Amateur Baker.

Along with Hollywood and Leith, Zach Cherry will be back to host, this time joined by Happy Endings alum and Bitch Sesh star Casey Wilson, who replaces former co-host Ellie Kemper.

Viewers can access the network for free on Roku devices, the Web, iOS and Android devices, Amazon Fire TV, Samsung TV, and Google TV and other Android TV OS devices.
