Paul, 58, was left impressed and offered Dermot a congratulatory handshake which left him - and Greg James - stunned.

Radio 1 star Greg was open-mouthed at the gesture and looked around the tent at everyone else's reactions.

Amused Bake Off fans at home took to social media to comment on the scenes, as one said: "Jealous of Dermot getting a handshake, maybe just a little."

A second wrote: "Greg's face is priceless!"

"Think someone is slightly jealous. So funny," said a third.

Dermot and Greg were joined in the tent by Spice Girl Mel B as well as Fern Brady.

In the end Dermot was awarded Star Baker by Prue Leith and Paul.

Appearing to be genuinely chuffed by his win, the dad-of-one said: "I'm thrilled. I genuinely thought Fern was going to win because she's been knocking it out the park the last couple of weeks.

"I'm going to have it framed!"

Bake Off is available to watch now on Channel 4.
