According to Mark, on the 13th November 2015 show while reviewing The Lady in the Van, Battenburg cake exists only as a concept in Alan Bennett dramas. He also claims to have lost out in a job interview to a slice of Battenburg, and that for a period of time the [BBC Radio 5 Live](BBC_Radio_5_Live) film reviews were presented by said piece of Battenburg and a cup of tea.
Mr Kipling is considering suing and the Marzipan Marketing Board have put a hit out on Dr Kermode.
Henceforth, 13th November is designated National Battenburg Cake Day.
In a recent [poll](https://web.archive.org/web/20220808093642/https://twitter.com/witterpedia%5Fnet/status/667076542460256256) 53% of Wittertainment listeners expressed a preference for Battenburg.
Other existential cakes are also available.
