According to their findings, season 10 has been one of the least talked about seasons of the show so far, averaging just 50,264 tweets per episode. To put this in perspective, during season 7, fans were sharing an average of 213,784 tweets per episode – over 4 times as many!

Here’s the most talked about seasons of the Great British Bake Off:

• Season 7 – 213,784 tweets per episode
• Season 6 – 138,730 tweets per episode
