Bake Off: Creme de la Creme viewers SLAM new host Angus Deayton 'He adds NOTHING'
Angus Deayton introduces this years Creme de la Creme
The chef stepped down from the role with Angus Deayton taking over presenting duties as the show began its second series.
The new instalment saw four teams of three pastry chefs tasked with making 36 identical moka au cafe slices and 36 napoleons.
They were then asked to create a showstopper which was inspired by the peach melba as they battled to stay in the competition.
Judges Cherish Finden and Benoit Blin dished out a heavy dose of criticism and awarded very low scores in the first two rounds of the series.

But, it wasn't just the teams who were judged, host Angus was also criticised on social media by those who were saddened to see Tom had been replaced.
One viewer tweeted: "Angus Deyton? What the heck? Bring back @ChefTomKerridge #GBBOCreme."
While another added: "Why have they dredged Angus Deayton back up for #GBBOCreme? His poor attempts at sarcasm add nothing to the program.
"Missing @ChefTomKerridge #GBBOCreme!! Angus Deayton doesn't seem to be enthusiastic about cake," a third fumed.

There were some who did enjoy Angus' dry sense of humour
Someone else continued: "Sorry, but Angus Deayton looks as if he'd rather be anywhere but in the #GBBOCreme studio. Plus his presenting style is irredeemably snide."
Fortunately for the 61-year-old, there were some viewers who enjoyed his dry sense of humour, with one fan writing: "#GBBOCreme Just love Angus's sarcasm. Brilliant addition to the show."
As another tweeted: "#GBBOCreme Fabulous tweaks this year. Back with a bang. The best two judges and great to see Angus out front again."
Bake Off Crème de la Crème continues next Tuesday on BBC Two at 8pm.
