    Summary

    “It’s called -” Francis huffed into the phone, commended his soul to a god he wasn’t quite sure he still believed in. “Right now, it’s called…” He sighed. “It’s called Barrow’s Baking Boys.”
      
    When Francis tried out for what he thought was Bake Off, he didn't expect to end up on a knock-off run by an aging baker desperate for a legacy. But now he's here, trying to keep up with the younger bakers and their flashy piping, avoid the eyes of cameras that only seem to catch him at his worst, and do his best not to be distracted by that posh bastard with the perfect hair.

    Ten weeks, twelve contestants, two hundred and twenty five bakes.

    One winner.

    Let the first season of Barrow's Baking Boys Begin!

    Summary

    Nineteen Eighty-Four was a joke because they didn’t let you know they were there, like Big Brother. They were just there. Bill knew they were watching. He’d known since he was a boy at school.

    Summary

    "Galahad, are you bailing out? Do you have a lifebelt? I can contact the lifeboat stations on our side and Norway, they'll come and find you." There's no reply, just another burst of static and what he suspects is fire from the burning plane. "Galahad, Harry, can you hear me?"

    "Yes," Harry says eventually.

    "Yes you're bailing out?"

    "Yes, only I don't have a parachute."
