Cooking with the Stars 2021 release date: celebrity line-up, hosts and news
Everything you need to know about ITV's new celebrity cooking show hosted by Emma Willis and Tom Allen.
In new ITV series Cooking with the Stars, eight celebrities who are passionate about cooking will each be paired with a professional chef who will mentor them, train them, and hopefully turn them into restaurant level chefs by the end of the series.
Celebrities including Denise Van Outen, Johnny Vegas and Strictly’s Shirley Ballas are among the brave contestants who will be taught by their professional mentors and tested in cooking battles each week to produce delicious dishes.
In each episode, they will be judged and the bottom two celebrities will then have to battle it out to stay in the competition by creating a dish without the help of their mentor that is then judged in a blind tasting.
