The biggest UK search trend of the year was the game Wordle – as fans of the game pride themselves on maintaining a series of unbroken daily wins.
Telly also dominated searches, with Stranger Things topping out the list for TV, and Encanto from Disney heading the movies roster.
Brits also searched for I’m A Celeb stars Boy George and Chris Moyles , and Ukraine, the Jubilee, Storm Eunice and Diana Ross, as she headlined Glastonbury festival.
Great British Bake Off star Sandro Farmhouse has created an ultimate showstopper cake inspired by this year’s top Search Trends.
Sandro, 30, shot to fame on the Channel 4 show this year and reached the final with Rehman Sharif and Syabira Yusoff, who was crowned champion last month.
His five tiered sponge has been inspired by Wordle, Stranger Things and Encanto and it includes a heart shaped Ukraine fondant flag.
It also has a mini Rice Krispie jet peeking out from white candy floss clouds to represent planes struggling to land in Storm Eunice, another top search trend.
