Great British Bake Off viewers in hysterics over contestant's pronunciation blunder

Great British Bake Off viewers were left in hysterics during Tuesday night's show as two contestants struggled to pronounce mangetout.

Janusz and Sandro where in the middle of preparing their food, which included mangetout, which is French for a type of garden pea picked very young, it so young that it's still in the pod.

But both struggled to pronounce how to say it, with Janusz calling it "man-get-out", and Sandro referring to it as "Mang-ay-tout".

Channel 4 producer later posted the clip on Twitter, with the caption: "The best pronunciations of mangetout you will ever hear. #GBBO "

That led to fans of the show commenting underneath, with one saying: "Mangatout .. me & hubby have fallen off the sofa crying laughing," including three laughing face emoji's.

Someone else replied: "Man get out #crying "

It was pastry week on the programme, and contestants were rustling up spring rolls, and that didn't please some, with one viewer writing on Twitter: "Spring rolls on Bake off....for pastry week. What's next, cod and chips? Seriously wtf.

"There's like a million other pastries that could be a challenge."
