THE STARS of Channel 4’s Great British Bake Off reunited for a trip to visit fan favourite Jurgen in his home city.
Baker Lizzie Acker, from Liverpool, shared a reunion video of her Tik Tok page, showing herself and fellow contestants Freya Cox and Jurgen Krauss enjoying a day out in Brighton.
In the video the three friends, who met during filming for this year’s series, can be seen on riding rollercoasters on Brighton Palace Pier and visiting The Duck House in Union Street.

Jurgen left the tent in last week’s episode of the popular reality show much to the disappoint of many of the show’s fans.
Lizzie said she shared the video on her account so fans could “see a bit more Jurgen” after his shock elimination.
So far, the video has more than 78,000 likes and more than 6,000 shares.
Fans of the show took to social media to share their love for the reunion, and for Jurgen, in the comments.
One fan wrote: “I think Great British Bake Off’s class of 2021 have been my favourite bunch so far.”
Another wrote: “Please tell Jurgen I genuinely cried and didn’t speak to anyone for a day when he left Bake Off.”
On last week’s episode of the Great British Bake Off, was the only contestant to not receive a converted handshake from judge Paul Hollywood, and despite winning the technical challenge, he missed out on a place in the show’s final.
The German-born IT technician said he “loved” his experience on the show and had made friends for life.
The Great British Twitter Bake Off Twitter account shared a handwritten letter written by Jurgen, thanking fans for their support during his time on the Channel 4 show.
Lizzie was eliminated from the show in the quarter final, while vegan baker Freya was eliminated in week five.
The final of this series of Great British Bake Off will air on Channel 4 on Tuesday at 8pm.
