Johnny Vegas wanted a handshake from Paul Hollywood "the whole time" he was on 'The Great Celebrity Bake Off'.

The comedian has joined an all-star cast taking part in a special series of the baking show for Stand Up To Cancer, and he admitted Paul and his fellow judge Prue Leith might have been taking it easy on him because of his lack of experience.
Appearing on ITV's 'This Morning', he said: "The handshake, that's what I was after all the way through. But they were great, I think they take it easy on you knowing that you're a first timer."
Johnny will appear on the special charity run alongside a host of fellow famous faces, including the likes of John Lithgow, Michelle Keegan, Jon Richardson, Caroline Flack, Big Narstie, Georgia Toffolo and Rylan Clark-Neal.
The 48-year-old star - who admitted he is "terrible" under pressure - has "never baked" before, but he acknowledged he definitely has a "competitive edge" that comes through in the competition.
He revealed: "It's hard work, it is! If you don't bake but you've got a bit of a competitive edge to you, you get in there and it's a multitasking element of cameras coming over wanting to chat to you. You want to make a good show of yourself."
Johnny is doing the show for a good cause after losing his father Lawrence to cancer, and while he couldn't share exactly how he fared, he suggested he might have done better than he expected.
He said: "No, not really. I mean, I think I gave a good show of myself. I can't tell you how I got on."
The five part series starts on Tuesday, March 5 at 9pm on Channel 4, and will feature judges Paul and Prue, plus hosts Sandi Toksvig and Noel Fielding.
