"A run of bets" was put for one contestant, lots of at stores in the Ipswich area, the bookie said.

It is not known which baker triggered the flurry or whether any candidates have connections with the Suffolk town.

The very first episode of the popular amateur baking contest aired on BBC One Wednesday night.

It is the 6th series of the yohaig code program, which challenges 12 hopefuls to impress judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood.

Weekly the yohaig code amateur bakers are expected to deal with a baking challenge, with very little directions, and provide a "signature meal".

'Soggy bottom'

The bookie stated a flurry of bets came in for among the 12 participants whose chances started at 12/1 and were minimized to 6/1, 3/1 and then evens.

"We provided costs on Monday and, practically before the ink was dry, an unusual variety of punters were in a rush to back just one contestant," David Williams of Ladbrokes stated.

"On Tuesday and Wednesday it was more of the same one-way traffic. That sufficed to set our alarm bells ringing and, as a precaution, we suspended our betting.

"Hopefully, we'll return up with revised chances quicker rather than later on, but we didn't desire to get captured with our trousers pulled down and a soggy bottom, so we've chosen to relax till we are assured that Bake Off hasn't gone off already.

"When you see a run of bets like this promotion code for one contestant at the expenditure of everybody else that can be an indication to suspend wagering for a bit to assess the scenario," he added.

Several of the bets positioned were the maximum the bookie would consider wagers made on the program's outcome, and 90% were put on one participant.

The suspension would not impact bets currently put, the company stated.

The first participant to be knocked out of the competitors on Wednesday night was Stuart Henshall from Surrey.

The 11 staying entrants are from Berkshire, Lancashire, Cambridgeshire, London, West Yorkshire, Manchester, Essex, Swansea and 2 from Perthshire.
