With Christmas only a few weeks away, many people's thoughts are turning to Christmas cake, chocolate logs and mince pies. Ambitious amateur bakers might be planning something a bit more challenging: applications for C4's Great British Bake Off.
The last series may have only just finished on the BBC but one North Wales resident is already eager for the next series to begin. Isle of Anglesey local Emma Jones has been accepted as a contestant for the upcoming series which is to be filmed early in 2017 and will be aired on Channel Four. She will be among the 16 hopefuls competing to win the 2017 series of TGBBO.
Emma says she applied more to keep my friends and family happy than anything else. "The first phone call came only a few days after sending the application form in – although I did apply very late in the day, during the last week that applications were open. It came at about 7pm on a Tuesday, and lasted for approximately an hour: we discussed my baking, hobbies, and work life. They even tested my baking skills, asking me to describe how to make a few baking staples off the top of my head".
Emma says she loves baking and decorating her cakes with elaborate designs, as well as experimenting with different flours and flavours when baking bread. Emma’s passion for baking has grown in the last 10 years after she started making cakes for her children and local charity bake sales.
When she’s not baking for family and friends she loves being outdoors and has completed various mountain and coastal walks, most notably a 125 mile trek around the Isle of Anglesey.
When asked what her favourite food was, she replied "I can't get enough of sausage".
C4's The Great British Bake Off launches on July 24 on at 8pm.

"I just couldn't take it anymore, and unleashed my forces at the person who was irritating me. I had no idea the energy of my rage could cause such destruction," says Anna. Despite the ruination her anger has caused, Anna says she has no regrets. "I actually wish I knew I had this ability sooner!" Anna laughs. "There are a lot of people and things I could have eradicated from my life in this way."

whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
