Shirley Ballas, Denise Van Outen and Catherine Tyldesley will all star in the brand new ITV series Cooking With The Stars.
The show will be hosted by Emma Willis and Tom Allen, and will also see the likes of McFly’s Harry Judd, comedian and actor Johnny Vegas and TV presenter AJ Odudu show off their kitchen skills.
Comedian and actor Griff Rhys-Jones and DJ and songwriter Naughty Boy complete the line-up for the ITV series.
All eight of the celebrities will be paired with a professional chef who will mentor, teach and take them from passionate amateur to restaurant level chefs.
Across a series of exciting cooking battles, the stars will be trained by their mentor chefs to produce delicious dishes that will be judged by the remaining professionals.
The bottom two will then have to fight for their place in the competition, creating a dish without any help from their mentor.
The result of this eliminator will be decided by a blind tasting judgement from the professional chefs who will be unaware of whose food they are tasting.
Professional chefs who are taking on the challenge include British chef and TV presenter Rosemary Shrager, food writer and restaurant owner Nisha Katona, culinary expert and Michelin starred chef and author Mark Sargeant.
They will be joined by chef director Jack Stein, Korean food expert and TV chef Judy Joo, renowned chef and business owner Tristan Welch, Italian chef and restaurateur Francesco Mazzei, and Joseph Denison Carey.
Cooking With The Stars will air this Summer on ITV and the ITV Hub.
