1) Noel consoling Laura

Laura had a habit throughout Bake Off 2020 of tending to have a mini breakdown when things didn't go as she planned. When her pastry slice melted in the summer heat, Laura took herself off for a moment - but Noel came to console her, telling her about tennis legend Bjorn Borg and encouraging her to put it behind her and focus on the upcoming tasks. Aww!

2) Peter being a bake off super fan

As Peter is the youngest person ever to win Bake Off at 19, we saw throwback photos of the student from his childhood, showing how his love for being had been inspired by watching the show as a youngster - what a lovely full circle moment for him!

3) Peter telling his family about his win

When a contestant wins Star Baker, it's always a sweet moment - so revealing that they've won is a million times more heartwarming! Peter's incredulous announcement to his family was met with screams of delight that could melt even the coldest of ice cream cakes.

4) Prue thinking of Peter like her grandson

Fans of the show were shocked when Prue revealed her age in an episode a few weeks back, with the revelation that she's 80 really leaving us in awe. But in a cute moment last night, Prue joked that she looked on Peter as a sort of grandson, adding that she was really chuffed for him.

5) Peter not telling his housemates he'd won

It's a miracle to us that those in the Bake Off can keep shtum, but for Peter to keep quiet about his big win whilst at university is astonishing! In the credits, it was revealed that his housemates were finding out with the rest of us as the show went out... Amazing.

6) Dave's baby

Another credits scene saw Dave introduce his baby Ronnie, having spoken about the upcoming birth of his first child throughout the show. An adorable video saw Dave with his son resting on his chest - and honestly, we melted faster than a chocolate challenge in the Bake Off tent. Since then, Dave has shared a snap of baby Ronnie holding a whisk in his tiny hand - aww!

Luis Troyano

In a truly touching moment, the Bake Off producers took the time to remember Luis Troyano, who sadly passed away earlier this year. Luis competed in the fifth series in 2014, making it to the final.
