Who is the Great British Bake Off narrator?

There are actually TWO narrators for The Great British Bake Off.

The soothing voiceover is provided by hosts Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas.

They both share the duties, and read different parts of the show.

As well as this, they talk to the bakers as they prepare their cakes, provide links to camera and also shout out time checks so the bakers can complete their challenge.

Noel and Matt also take it in turn to reveal who the Star Baker is, and who is leaving the show.
