This Sunday will see the first episode of this year\u2019s Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer<\/a> air on Channel 4, with Doctor Who<\/a>\u2018s Jodie Whittaker entering the tent, along with Paloma Faith, Munya Chawawa and Spencer Matthews.<\/p>\n

Ahead of her episode airing, Whittaker has revealed the aspect of the show she\u2019s most nervous about, saying that it\u2019s less about the baking and more about the prospect of unscripted TV itself.<\/p>\n

When asked what she\u2019s most worried about, she said: \u201cPeople seeing my personality unedited. Not being given any lines to say. Apart from interviews, I\u2019ve never done anything where I\u2019m myself on something. The only other one I\u2019ve ever done was for Children In Need<\/a>, where we recorded an album, and they filmed us in real life for that as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is what makes me nervous, that you are yourself with a microphone and cameras on you. I have no control over that edit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked whether she likes doing things outside of her comfort zone, Whittaker said: \u201cYes, generally. I do really like it, but I would never put myself in a situation that was the celebrity version of something unless it was for charity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no personal gain there for me, it\u2019s just horrific. Whereas this, for all my slight anxiety towards it, is all for the greater good.\u201d<\/p>\n
