Tasha Stones (Tash) on GBBO is asked if she is alright by her fellow bakers during the October 18 episode. She is told to “take all the time she needs.” So what happened to Tasha Stones on Bake Off?

The Great British Bake Off‘s chocolate week is officially here as GBBO airs a day later due to the football being on during its usual Tuesday slot. It’s proven to be a stressful time for the bakers. Bake Off star Tasha Stones, who has been crowned the star baker during biscuit and bread week, is feeling the pressure.

What happened to Tasha on Bake Off?

The Great British Bake Off contestant, nicknamed Tash, is seen in a preview sitting on the floor in front of the oven. A medical support is suddenly by her side to support her as bakers are “pushed to the limit.”

As GBBO’s Tash looks up at him while sitting down, a man wearing a shirt that says ‘Essential Medical Services’ tells her to “take all the time she needs.” She is also seen, earlier in the episode, checking her baking mixture in the microwave and groaning.

During the cheesecake technical, Tasha on Bake Off gets stressed. She wipes the sweat from her forehead during the timed challenge and is later seen getting upset as she nods and says, “Okay.”

Fellow bakers ask if Tash is alright

GBBO star Nicky asks if Tash is alright during the October 18 episode. After the preview for Chocolate Week was shown on Twitter, Reddit thread users shared their concern for the baker.

One wrote: “I’m worried about her in next week’s previews.” Another said: “It’s probably really loud in the tent with so many people and all of the equipment. It’s also a stressful environment and situation for her.”

Tasha hasn’t addressed the episode herself yet but is now doing fine. She shared an Instagram Story giving her cat a cuddle after receiving medical support on the show.

Trying to get your head around Bake Off being on a WEDNESDAY NIGHT this week! 😮😮😮 #GBBO
