Jodie Whittaker has revealed she is nervous viewers will see her ‘unedited personality’ ahead of her appearance on Sunday’s The Great Celebrity Bake Off in aid of Stand Up To Cancer.
The former Doctor Who star, 41, will battle Paloma Faith, Munya Chawawa and Spencer Matthews in the famous tent before their creations are judged by Paul Hollywood and Dame Prue Leith.
But ahead of the episode airing, Jodie has admitted her nerves after getting used to being handed a script and being told what to say.
Narrator Radio Times: ‘Apart from interviews, I’ve never done anything where I’m on something myself,’.
‘That’s what makes me nervous, you being yourself with a microphone and cameras on you. I have no control over that edit’.

When asked if she enjoyed being pushed out of her comfort zone, Jodie admitted: ‘Yes, generally. I really like it, but I would never put myself in a situation that was the celebrity version of something, unless it was for charity’.
It comes after judge Prue broke her silence on rumors she is leaving The Great British Bake Off.
On Wednesday it was revealed that the cookery writer and TV star, 84, is ‘taking a break’ from the Channel 4 show after seven years as a judge, with bosses said to have been eyeing Nigella Lawson to replace her.
However, during an appearance on Thursday’s This Morning, Prue was quick to clear up any confusion and insisted her absence from the show was only temporary.
She told hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley: ‘It’s absolutely not true! (that she has left the show). What I’m not doing this year is the celebrity.
‘These things are filmed back-to-back all the way through the summer from April to August, so you don’t get any time off. I am getting quite old and there are places I want to see. So I’m not doing this year’s.’
Prue previously told MailOnline of the decision: ‘I love working on Bake Off and am looking forward to filming the next series and meeting our new bakers.
‘I’m only stepping down from the Celebrity series, which is only a matter of the filming commitment involved when we do these shows back to back.’
She said: ‘That’s what makes me nervous, you being yourself with a microphone and cameras on you. I have no control over that edit’ (pictured with the rest of 2024’s celebs)

A spokesman for Bake Off creator Love Productions said: ‘Prue will be stepping down from The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer.’
“Prue absolutely loves working on Bake Off but filming two series a year can be punishing on top of her other commitments,” a source told The sun.
‘She has already filmed the normal series which will be shown this year, but she will not appear in the celebrity version.
‘Prue has made it clear she loves the show and wants to return in 2025. She turns 85 next year so it’s no surprise she wants to take time off.
