THE Great British Bake Off will still have plenty of Christmas spirit on Channel 4, even without booze-loving Mary Berry.

Judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith and new hosts Sandi Toksvig and Noel Fielding have recreated East 17’s Stay Another Day for a festive edition of the Channel 4 show.

The foursome borrowed Brian Harvey and co’s fluffy white parkas and lip-synched along to the classic Christmas No1.

The giant outfits dwarfed pint-sized Sandi, 59 - who stands at just 4ft11 — while even grinchy Paul, 51, played along.

East 17’s own Tony Mortimer, 47, makes a cameo appearance in The Great Festive Bake Off, which airs New Year’s Day at 7.40pm.

Earlier this week the Bake Off team enjoyed a Christmas dinner together, with judge Prue admitting she's not so good at Twitter after she revealed the show's winner a day early.
