Now that Norman is no longer on Bake Off, who should you root for to win this series?
It still hurts Norman, it still hurts.
Should you back Martha? Or Kate? Or Nancy?
Good luck to them all...but nah.
Nope. You SHOULD be supporting this pencil.
Richard always has this pencil behind his ear. It debuted halfway through the first episode.
This is every day Richard has worn the pencil so far.
TL;DR: He likes blue pencils.
Why does he wear it? He's a B-U-I-L-D-E-R.
Some people do not see the point of a pencil.
why do you need a pencil when baking? #GBBO
Why the hell had Richard always got that bleeding pencil behind his ear all the fricking time?????? #gbbo
BUT THE PENCIL HAS A PURPOSE. Remember the pie challenge? He was wearing it that day.
Nancy was having difficulty tracing paper with her existing terrible pencil while making her pie.
Think what would have happened without the pencil.
Probably this all over again.
Also, when Richard isn't wearing his pencil, for some reason you don't actually recognise Richard.
BREAKING: He wears the pencil at home.
.@RichardPBurr sleeps with the pencil behind his ear sometimes #gbbo #magicpencil ✏️
He also owns many many pencils.
And here is a photo of Richard at a pencil museum, which was taken by his wife ten years ago.
CASE CLOSED.
