The 41-year-old failed to impress Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood throughout the episode, beginning with her undercooked samosas during the signature challenge.

She also struggled with the difficult technical - to make the Breton pastry kouign amann - and finished fourth, while her showstopper eclairs were dubbed a "mess" by the judges.

Even Henry herself had suggested her showstopper was a problem, saying before the judging: "Terrible. Absolutely terrible. I'm a goner. I'm so a goner."

Martha Collison also struggled with the showstopper eclairs, with a runny crème pâtissière leaving her scrambling at the end of the challenge; she was in tears after being judged by Berry and Hollywood.

However, she had done well earlier in the episode, coming third in the rankings with her kouign amann and impressing the judges with her signature mini beef wellingtons.

Meanwhile, Chetna Makan was also in danger after coming bottom in the technical challenge but pulled it back with her showstopper.

Similarly, Luis Troyano dipped in the signature and technical sections but was told he "nailed it on all counts" with his eclairs.

Richard Burr had better news, as he won the title of Star Baker for a third time after wowing with his Stair of Eclairs and almost matching Hollywood's kouign amann, topping the technical rankings.

The Great British Bake Off airs on Wednesdays at 8pm on BBC One.
