Legal advocate, performer and comedian June Gachui sifts in the perfect proportion of hugs and humour as one of the hosts of The Great Kenyan Bake Off (2019-now). And because we’re always trying to crack that Bake Off (2010-now) secret recipe, we asked her 10 nosy questions about the show…
10 QUESTIONS WITH JUNE
1 What happened the first time you met your co-host, Nick Ndeda (Angelo in 2012 in drama series Shuga, 2010-now)?
June: Nick and I had actually met before. We shared a stage together for a play called The Good Body some years back. So, it was nice to have the chance to work with him again.
2 What were some of the guidelines that production gave you?
June: There were quite a number, but the most memorable ones were: one, to remember that our role was to engage the contestants, be their friend, encourage them and help the audience at home to get to know them a bit better. Two, not to shout too loudly. I would get so excited at times that I had trouble controlling my volume and the sound engineer (bless him) would have to whisper in my ear!
