Molly was eliminated during Bread Week while Nikki left for personal reasons.

The Great British Bake Off saw two contestants leave during Bread Week on 13 October. Molly, 31, an accessibility co-ordinator from London, was eliminated after the judges were unimpressed with her baking. Nikki left the competition for personal reasons after her mother 'took a turn for the worse'.

During the episode, contestants faced three challenges. The technical challenge required them to make filled flatbreads, the signature challenge tasked them with creating the 'ultimate' garlic bread, and the showstopper entailed an 'exquisite display of enriched bread' with a large centrepiece and a celebratory theme.

Molly said she was 'sad to be leaving the tent' but believed it was 'the right decision'. She reflected positively on her time on the show, saying: 'It's been a really wonderful experience and I am really proud of myself'. She added that appearing on the programme had changed her approach to baking, teaching her 'how to bake and not put so much pressure on myself'.
