Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson has been dreaming about TV debut for years and now this dream may finally come true. The MSP for Edinburgh Central, who proposed to her girlfriend Jennifer Wilson last year, will appear on The Great British Bake Off, according to The Scottish Sun. She won’t be a regular contestant but probably will take part in Great British Bake Off’s charity special. As well as the eight full-length series, the first seven of which were on the BBC, The Great British Bake Off has had five four-part charity specials. The Great Sport Relief Bake Off aired in 2012, 2014 and 2016, and The Great Comic Relief Bake Off aired in 2013 and 2015. And this time the special will be devoted to the problem of cancer. Last year, when the Bake Off was still on the BBC, she appeared on its spinoff show alongside comedian Jo Brand and former winner Nadiya Hussain. She won’t be the first politician to appear on the show, with Ed Balls having appeared in the 2016 series of Great Sport Relief Bake Off, the same year as ex-Prime Minister David Cameron’s wife Samantha
