Stephen from GBBO frosting a cake. A series of subtitles share what he's saying: "Unfortunately, not everybody in my childhood was so kind. They did leave scars. As an adult now, I will say this, children remember more than you think and believe me when I say this, your child will not remember whether you got them the latest iPhone or not. They will remember being called stupid, annoying, too much, too loud, too weird, or that they just don't fit in. Words do last a long time, sadly."
