Cooking with the Stars is a British competitive cooking reality television series. It began airing on 13 July 2021 on ITV and is presented by Emma Willis and Tom Allen.[1][2] It was renewed for a second series that was set to premiere on 7 June 2022.[3][4]

Format

Eight celebrities are paired with a professional chef who becomes their mentor. The celebrities then compete against each other in a number of cooking battles where they prepare a range of different dishes. During cooking, they have the option to bang the gong (golden frying pan) which allows their mentor to step in and help for two minutes. The mentor chefs also act as the judges, and rate the other celebrity cooks, deciding the winner(s) who will be advancing to the next round, and the losers who are forced to compete in the cook-off. In the cook-off, the bottom two prepare the same dish, with no help from their mentor, in a bid to remain in the competition. The cook-off is judged by a blind taste test, meaning the chefs do not know which celebrity has cooked each dish and therefore potentially allowing them to send their own celebrity home.[5][6]

Production

In April 2021, ITV announced the commissioning of Cooking with the Stars, a six-part entertainment cooking competition created by South Shore Productions with funding by Marks & Spencer.[7] The series was teased as featuring "eight celebrities, each paired with an accomplished chef who will mentor, teach and take them from passionate amateur to restaurant level chefs." The series is filmed at Pinewood Studios.[5]

Series 1 (2021)

The celebrities competing in the first series, along with their professional chef mentors were announced on 17 May 2021.[8][9] The series was won by Harry Judd, who was mentored by Nisha Katona.[10]
