Nadine Coyle was one of the latest stars to hit the famous Bake Off tent on Tuesday night, for The Great Celebrity Bake Off.

And within minutes, Nadine led as favourite thanks to her hilarious antics and “iconic” pronunciation of a baking item.

After seeing a viral clip from an appearance on Sunday Brunch way back in 2010, viewers were desperate to hear the Girls Aloud favourite say “flour” once more.

In said clip, Nadine mentioned she was “working with flour” and viewers quickly noticed the unusual pronunciation of the latter word.

The same clip resurfaced years later, and remains a favourite online – so when viewers learned she would be on the show they were hopeful she’d say the term again.

Nadine couldn’t see what all the fuss was about when asked about it later on, taking to Twitter in the past.

On Tuesday night, viewers were loving Nadine being in the episode as she took to baking and suffered the odd mishap.

Her panicking over getting the treats right was hilarious enough, but her dropping her bakes on the floor left many viewers in stitches.

Many were just waiting though for the moment they’d hoped for: the moment Nadine said the word flour.

Sure enough within minutes, she repeated the term that made her go viral all those years ago, and it was everything fans could have imagined and more.

Taking to Twitter , one fan wrote: “Can’t believe we’ve been blessed with Nadine Coyle saying Flour again.”

Another added: “2 minutes in and we already have our first ‘flour’ from Nadine. Keep them coming please.”

A third commented: “NADINE COYLE JUST SAID FLOUR AGAIN.”

Meanwhile a fourth said: “3 minutes in and we’ve heard Nadine say ‘flour’. Iconic.”

The Great Celebrity Bake Off is available to watch on All 4.

Sometimes, you just don’t feel like reading. It can be an article, a Wikipedia entry, or a research paper for school. Instead of searching for a YouTube video, listen to articles using Microsoft Edge’s Read Aloud feature.

Microsoft Edge has a pretty stellar built-in reader mode . It removes all the stuff from the web page (including ads and extra content) and presents it in a customizable text format.

RELATED: How To Use Reading View In Microsoft Edge

The reader mode also has a Read Aloud feature (similar to Siri’s feature on Mac ). In the past few years, text-to-speech has come a long way. When you use Microsoft Edge’s Read Aloud feature, you don’t feel like a robot is talking to you. In fact, there are a couple of voices that almost sound human, with variable pitch, appropriate pauses, and stellar pronunciation for complex words.

To get there, first, open the article that you want Microsoft Edge to read out loud on your Windows 10 PC or Mac. Then, from the URL bar, click the Immersive Reader button (You can also press the F9 key.).

The page will now change into the reader mode format.

To listen to the article, click the “Read Aloud” button.

Microsoft Edge will now start speaking the article’s text from the top to the bottom. It will fade the entire article, only highlighting the word that’s being spoken.

You can change the playback speed and the voice itself from the “Voice Options” section. Edge has a versatile library of natural-sounding English voices for different accents (German, Japanese, Indian, and so on).

You can pause and navigate the speech feature in a couple of ways. First, you can click the Play/Pause button at the top. The Previous and Next buttons will help you skip to the previous or the next paragraph.

You can also use the Space bar to play or pause the audio (Your computer’s media keys will work as well.).

The Read Aloud feature doesn’t let you directly skip to a part of the article. It always starts speaking from the top of the screen. So if you want to skip ahead, scroll down, and line up the desired text to the top of the window. Then double-click anywhere in the window to skip to it.

Once you’re done, you can use the ESC key to exit the Read Aloud feature, or you can click the Immersive Reader button to exit the reader mode altogether.

In certain corners of the U.S., the only way you’ll ever be considered a local is if you were born there. Particularly in rural pockets, where generation after generation stays close to old family farms or businesses, even someone who moved to the area during childhood is often considered a transplant.

Elsewhere, in major metropolitan centers like New York City, it can feel like no one is originally from there. The constant influx of new businesses, college students, and families can transform neighborhoods every few years and certainly decade over decade.

Using the most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2019 American Community Survey , Stacker ranked every U.S. state and Washington D.C. based on the percentage of the total population that was born in that state of residence.

Results on this list might surprise some readers. Scroll through Stacker’s list to see which state has the most loyal natives.

51. Nevada

– 2019 population: 3,080,156

Nevada is the last state on this list, meaning the “Silver State” wins the gold when it comes to people leaving. Nevada is heavily dependent on gaming and tourism , and only 25.91 percent of its residents can say they were born there. Apparently, what happens in Vegas most likely leaves Vegas.

50. Florida

– 2019 population: 21,477,737

Florida comes in second place for having the lowest percentage of born and bred residents. However, with the largest percentage of senior citizens of any state , it would most likely dominate any “best place to retire” list. With record numbers of tourists visiting the state , the economy is seemingly unaffected by Florida natives staying or leaving.

49. Washington D.C.

– 2019 population: 705,749

It should come as no surprise that Washington D.C., the political heart of the country, has such high numbers of transplants living there. Taken as a microcosm of the larger political population, Congress alone brings in 535 congressmen and congresswomen from across the country to live in D.C. Although when it comes to politics, it is better to not be born there: A Washington D.C. native has never become president .

48. Arizona

– 2019 population: 7,278,717

Home to the Grand Canyon, Arizona is also home to a majority of people who were not born there. Arizona is ranked second in the country for concentrating solar power and fourth in terms of fastest wage growth .

– 2019 population: 731,545

When someone wants to leave Alaska and head to the continental U.S., they either need a cruise ship, an airplane, or a trip through Canada via road . As difficult or as expensive as it might seem to leave, only 42.45 percent of the population was born in Alaska. Known for its oil and fishing exports , another major export of Alaska seems to be its natives.

44. Wyoming

– 2019 population: 578,759

The major industries of Wyoming are mineral extraction and tourism, and the state boasts three national parks. Wyoming sets itself apart from other states with similar industries in that roughly half of the land is government-owned .

43. Delaware

– 2019 population: 973,764

Although Delaware, known as “The First State,” was the first state to ratify the U.S. Constitution , it is far from the first state when it comes to retaining its state natives. Delaware does, however, have the closest spread of any state on this list when it comes to its population; 43.2 percent of the population was born there and just a slightly higher 44.99 percent was born out of state.

42. Oregon

– 2019 population: 4,217,737

As one of only five states that does not have a sales tax and boasting the 11th best economy in the U.S. , Oregon certainly “flies with her own wings.” The Beaver State is also the last state on this list where the percentage of residents born out of state is greater than the percentage of those born in the state.

40. Washington

– 2019 population: 7,614,893

Washington has been ranked as having the second-best economy in the country , which is not a huge surprise when considering companies like Amazon and Microsoft are based there. It seems Washington might have been too busy giving birth to grunge music to prioritize retaining its state natives.

39. Maryland

– 2019 population: 6,045,680

Throughout Maryland, 47 percent of the population was also born there. Maryland’s economy outperforms the U.S. economy and is one of only 11 states to have a AAA bond rating.

Vermont is the second top producer of maple syrup in North America , and the top producer of maple syrup in the U.S. Perhaps life in Vermont is just too delicious to leave, with over half of its population having been born there.

When it comes to name pronunciation, it’s no secret that there are some incredibly complicated names out there.

Then there are the more common names, that most people have no problem saying out loud.

However, every now and then it seems there’s a crossover between the two, as a parent takes a popular name and decides to alter the pronunciation – but keep the spelling the same.

One woman has recounted an awkward situation she found herself in after getting a child’s name wrong.

Taking to TikTok, Lindsey Foster, a nurse from the US, admitted that she’s bad with names but didn’t think she could butcher the name Liam after she saw it on a patient’s file.

She said: “I’m a paediatric nurse and I’m from the deep, deep south, so I butcher everybody’s name.

“If it’s not something super simple like Ben or Sally, I’m gonna butcher it.

“So, I see a kid’s name on our computer and I say ‘Oh, Liam, I got this. L-I-A-M. Liam. Easy’.

“I go out, call the kid’s name, nobody moves. Call him again. Nobody moves. Call him again nobody moves.

“Finally this mum stands up and says ‘Do you mean ‘Yum?’

“And I say ‘No, Liam?’ and she said ‘Yeah, it’s short for William’.”

Lindsey finishes the video by doing a mind blown gesture, adding “boom”.

Her clip went viral, being watched more than three million times and garnering over 196,000 likes.

Thousands of people also commented on the video, with one saying: “My son’s name was Liam. His new name is Yum.”

Another replied: “As a mum of a Liam, I am perturbed.”

Others began sharing unfortunate and amusing names they’d come across.

Someone else said: “Had a student named Justin, last name Case. He said ‘My mom thinks she has a sense of humour’.”

“Had a patient named L-A, I called for LA. Mom quickly informed me it’s pronounced Ladasha and did I not see the dash? Ummm ok,” added a different user.
