Fans of the baking show weren't happy with the results of last night's Danish Week which saw French baker Manon get booted off the show.
Great British Bake Off fans slammed the show last night after Manon Lagreve was eliminated following Danish Week.
Many fans felt her exit was unfair and instead felt that Rahul Mandal should have left the show after three disappointing bakes from the 30-year-old research scientist.
Viewers took to Twitter to rant about the results of the quarter finals with fans even pleading for 'justice for Manon'!
Did anyone else feel the ground shake as the whole of the UK shrieked MANON?!? at the television #GBBO

The strong opinions came after all of Rahul's three bakes were panned by judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood, with his signature bake even being labelled 'not safe to eat'.
He also ended up burning his showstopper Kagemand bake; a traditional Danish cake shaped like a man and made up of Danish pastries.
Manon's showstopper bake didn't exactly go to plan either after Paul pointed out that her Danish pastries were actually more like French pastries as she presented pain au chocolates as part of her Kagemand.
Manon baked french bread and pain au Chocolat instead of Danish pastries. If it had been french week she would still be in but it wasn't so 🤷#GBBO
