Paul Hollywood has revealed he and fellow 'Great British Bake Off' judge Mary Berry go out drinking together.
Paul Hollywood gets drunk with Mary Berry.'The Great British Bake Off' star Paul Hollywood has said he often goes out drinking with his fellow judge, Mary, 79, after a long day of filming the hit BBC cooking show.
He told new! magazine: "When we do 'Bake Off' it's so chilled. It's quite relaxing. It is long hours and a very long day but we go out and get drunk together."
However, the 48-year-old star insists they doesn't socialise with the contestants outside of filming to avoid favouritism.
But the pair do send the show's co-hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins to to provide words of support to the hopefuls.
He explained: "We stay in different hotels. I'm there to judge what is on the plate. I'm not there to chat.
"I'm constructive. I will tell them how to do it and make it if I feel it could have been done better."
Mary added: "There's no favouritism. We're are there to judge. If a baker is having problems, we'll sometimes send Mel and Sue over to comfort them. We can't tell them what to do."
