The line-up for the Great British Sewing Bee’s 2025 final has been confirmed. It comes after a hard-fought penultimate episode.

But which of the sewers left the TV show this week? Here’s all you need to know: It might be hard to believe, but we are at the pointy-end of the competition on the beloved BBC competition. The four remaining sewers took on three more challenges with a spot in the final at stake. Inspired by the 1920s, they first had to recreate the iconic plus fours, a staple of outdoor pursuits from the era. It was followed up by being challenged to make modern, block-coloured garments from a selection of polo shirts, invented by tennis player René Lacoste. In the made-to-measure challenge, the semi-finalists embrace the revolutionary fashion of this iconic decade to make an outfit for a 1920s party. After deliberating, the judges decided that Kit Giroux, would be eliminated and thus miss out on the 2025 final. The 24-year-old was eliminated after not quite hitting his usual high standards. He fell short just at the end of the competition. All of the eliminations on The Great British Sewing Bee series 11 looks like this: The result of tonight’s semi-final means that the three finalists for the 2025 grand finale have been confirmed. Yasmin secured her spot in the final after getting the garment of the week.

She is one of four people to have hosted the show since it premiered back in 2013. Claudia Winkleman was the host for the first four seasons between 2013 and 2016. The show took a three year hiatus and then returned in 2019 with comedian Joe Lycett as the presenter. He hosted the show in series six and seven, before Sara Pascoe took over from series eight. She returned for series nine and then took a year off, before coming back to present series 11.
