It's not just the biscuits GBBO fans are loving

<p><a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/article/first-look-at-the-great-british-bake-off-2016-line-up">Great British Bake Off</a> is back on our TV screens for 2016, and we couldn&rsquo;t be happier. Cakes, biscuits, breads, mid-bake drama &ndash; we just love it all! But of course, fans of the show aren&rsquo;t all simply tuning in for the technical challenges alone.</p><p>Paul Hollywood, it seems, has become somewhat of a heartthrob among the GBBO community. The silver fox with the piercing blue eyes has been making viewers go weak at the knees for seven series now. So much so, there are social media hashtags dedicated to his charm:</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Just love <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TGBBO?src=hash">#TGBBO</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/paulhollywood?src=hash">#paulhollywood</a> makes it even better to watch ����</p>— izzy (@dizzyizzy42) <a href="https://twitter.com/dizzyizzy42/status/768525036147924994">August 24, 2016</a></blockquote><p> </p><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Is it just me, or does Paul Hollywood get better with age?!
