Kathy Burke has woken up to a pretty impressive surprise, after being immortalised in biscuit form on last night’s national TV.

Amid Drag Race icon RuPaul and even Paul Hollywood biscuit replicas, Kathy had her own portrait created by TV presenter Sophie Morgan.

Sophie was among the stars taking part in The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer, where they were tasked with making a biscuit likeness of their hero.

The 43-year-old did not disappoint, as she produced a pretty close resemblance to the real Kathy, who labelled it ‘the dream [she] never knew [she] had.’

‘To be immortalised in biscuit form is the dream I never knew I had,’ the actress and comedian penned.

‘Prue said it was really nice and slim so not overwhelming – just like me!

‘Well done, Sophie!’

Paul called the bake ‘unbelievable’ and ‘superb,’ with co-judge Prue Leith adding it’s ‘delicious’, and praising that ‘it’s really nice and thin so not overwhelming.’

Fans were just as impressed, with one writing: ‘You know you’ve made it in life when you’re immortalised in a biscuit,’ while another added: ‘The nation needs Kathy Burke biscuits.’

Elsewhere on Celebrity Bake Off, some viewers were left rather unimpressed by Tracy-Ann Oberman repeatedly getting one of her hero RuPaul’s most famous sayings wrong.

Tracy-Ann and Sophie were up against comedian Mawaan Rizwan, who had a rather dramatic jam roly-poly moment, and singer Ellie Goulding, whose David Attenborough replica scored her star baker.

Tracy-Ann chose Drag Race icon RuPaul for her bake of choice, fashioning the drag queen and presenter out of biscuits and icing. 

While the finished product managed to channel Ru’s sassy energy and huge wig, there was one part of the experience which didn’t go down too well with fans.

Despite Tracy-Ann decreeing that RuPaul was her hero, she managed to get one of Mama Ru’s most famous sayings wrong every single time.

Attempting to say RuPaul’s famous saying: ‘If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else,’ Tracy-Ann managed to make up a phrase of her own: ‘if you can’t love yourself, nobody else will love you’ – which didn’t go amiss with viewers. 

The Great Celebrity Bake Off for SU2C is available to watch on All4.
