Bake Off viewers compare Noel Fielding to Shirley from EastEnders as he reveals new blond hair
The comedian showed off a new bleached look on tonight's show - leading viewers to insist he looked like the Walford icon
NOEL Fielding has been compared to Shirley Carter from EastEnders after unveiling a startling blond hairdo on tonight's Bake Off.
The 45-year-old host presented the Stand Up To Cancer special with the new bleached look - and not everyone was a fan.
One tweeted the show, insisting: "When Noel Fielding calls in sick you can get Shirley Carter to fill in."
Another wrote: "Noel’s bleached hair should be a national cry for help."
A third insisted: "Noel Fielding is sporting my nightmare hair colour - ‘crack head blonde’ sort it out, you’re making me anxious 😂."
A fourth made a different comparison, insisting: "Noel's turning into Princess Diana #GBBO."
Several other viewers piled in with comparisons, saying he looked like Fred from Scooby Doo and even his co-cost Sandi Toksvig.
Another jokers wrote: "Are Sandy and Noel having a Hair off?" and "Who combed dulche de leche through Noel’s hair?"
However, the look had its fans, with one enthusiast asking: "Do I like Noel Fielding’s blonde hair? 🤔Yes, yes I think I do!"
One other said: "Honestly love Noels blonde hair.";
