Cooking up a storm! First look at series five of ITV show Cooking With The Stars with Love Island favourite, EastEnders legend and popular radio presenter as part of star-studded cast
The show, which first aired back in 2021, will be hosted by none other than Emma Willis and Tom Allen.
There have been 24 episodes across four series since then.
And fans will be very happy to know that the upcoming fifth series of the programme will hit ITV this Sunday (3 August 2025).
The famous faces who are taking part will definitely make the season a good watch as they go head to head in a number of cooking battles.
EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy, 42, who recently quit her role as Sonia Fowler on the BBC show after nearly 32 years, will be taking part.
Love Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, 30- who first shot to fame in 2018 on the ITV2 show - is another celebrity battling it out for the top spot.
Meanwhile Capital Breakfast show radio host Jordan North, 35, is no stranger to a bit of reality television after taking part in I'm A Celebrity back in 2020.
So will he be able to cook up a storm in the kitchen?
Funnyman and Outnumbered favourite Hugh Dennis, 63, will be taking to the kitchen to show off his best cooking skills.
Interiors expert and former Dragon from Dragons' Den Kelly Hoppen, 66, is another celebrity taking part.
Media personality Jack Osbourne, 39, son of the late rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, has taken part in various TV shows over the years, including The X Factor, Dancing With The Stars and The Osbournes.
Will he be able to impress the judges with his cooking?
Former Towie star Jessica Wright, 39, who starred on the programme between 2010 and 2016, is also part of the cast.
And will former footballer Shaun Wright-Phillip's stint on the show be as successful as his time on the pitch for the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea and Queens Park Rangers?
The show's official press release states: 'Across a series of exciting cooking battles, the show will see eight celebrities go head to head in the kitchen as they attempt to go from passionate amateur cooks to restaurant level chefs.
'Each celebrity will be paired with an accomplished chef who will mentor and teach them to produce delicious dishes that will be judged by the other professionals.'
At the end of each instalment, the famous faces who land in the bottom two will have to fight it out.
Whoever loses the blind tasting judgment from the professional chefs will be voted out.
Speaking ahead of her hosting stint earlier this month, Emma previously said: 'I'm absolutely delighted to be back in the kitchen for another series of Cooking With The Stars.
'Every year our celebrities throw themselves into it, and this new line-up is no exception.
'It's always a mix of nerves, excitement, and a few inevitable kitchen catastrophes which makes for brilliant tele.
'I can't wait for everyone to see what culinary delights (and disasters!) our new batch of stars cook up!'
Tom added: 'The sheer nerve of these celebrities to step into our kitchen and attempt culinary greatness (or just, you know, edible food) is truly something to behold!
'I am absolutely delighted to once again join Emma to unleash another season of dazzling triumphs and utterly baffling disasters.
'Get ready for a delicious, slightly burnt and completely fabulous ride – that golden frying pan is waiting.'
While director of entertainment and daytime commissioning ITV, Katie Rawcliffe, said: 'We are delighted to bring 'Cooking With The Stars' back for another series.
'The partnership with M&S continues to be a recipe for success, and this year viewers can expect even more surprising culinary transformations and laugh-out-loud moments as a fresh set of celebrities step into the kitchen to show what they can bring to the table.'
Cooking With The Stars starts this Sunday the 3rd August at 7pm on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player.

James Nesbitt ‘honoured' to accept LIPA companionship from Paul McCartney
Actor James Nesbitt has said he was 'honoured' to receive a companionship from Sir Paul McCartney at a Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) graduation ceremony. The 60-year-old, who starred in ITV drama Cold Feet, praised the work of students at the institute, as he was honoured alongside James Bond director Sir Sam Mendes, actor Adrian Lester and indie band The Wombats, who were formed at LIPA. Nesbitt said at the ceremony: 'I'm so honoured to accept this award from LIPA. 'When I visited a few months ago to speak to a group of students I was immediately struck by just what an extraordinary seat of learning this is, home to inspirational teachers and magnificent facilities out of which clearly pours creativity, innovation, passion, authenticity, collaboration and joy. 'After my talk I was lucky enough to see a short scene from a new take on Oklahoma. It was honestly astonishing, breathtaking and, somehow, courageous.' The Northern Ireland-born actor also starred as civil rights activist Ivan Cooper in the film Bloody Sunday (2002), and has also appeared in The Missing, Occupation and Murphy's Law. He was nominated for a Golden Globe for his lead role in Steven Moffat's Jekyll, portrayed Bofur in The Hobbit trilogy, and is a Unicef ambassador. Nesbitt was awarded an OBE in 2016 in recognition of his services to drama and to the community in Northern Ireland. Others being honoured by Sir Paul were director Gay Linvill, who has directed episodes of The Big Bang Theory, and Go Live Theatre chief executive and arts accessibility campaigner Sita McIntosh. The LIPA was founded by Sir Paul and Mark Featherstone-Witty in 1996, on the site of the old Liverpool Institute – the former school of both Sir Paul and Beatles bandmate George Harrison, and the adjacent Liverpool Art College, once attended by John Lennon.
