Channel 4 will not show the final episode of The Great Celebrity Bake Off For Stand Up To Cancer because of allegations against Scott Mills, who features in the show as a celebrity contestant.

The former Radio 2 DJ was sacked by the BBC after it emerged the Metropolitan Police launched an investigation into the 53-year-old in 2016 over allegations of serious sexual offences involving a teenage boy under 16 between 1997 and 2000.
