If you want to enrage a Brit, change their favourite baking show
LONDON -- You know how popular a TV show is when just the mere mention of it moving channel is enough to invoke instant, nationwide uproar.
On Tuesday morning, the news broke that much-loved British classic The Great British Bake Offwas moving from the BBC (which has been its home since 2010) to Channel 4.

Some people have taken the news pretty hard.
