Saturday Kitchen's Matt Tebbutt replaced as he launches exciting project
Donal Skehan was on hand to replace Matt Tebbutt as he hosted Saturday Kitchen today (May 17) Saturday Kitchen had to go on without its usual host Matt Tebbutt this Saturday (17th May), as the telly favourite was tied up with an exciting new venture. In his place, fans saw Irish culinary star Donal Skehan take the reins, thrilled to step in for Matt. The unexpected hosting switch was flagged up just before airtime by the Women In the Food Industry X (previously Twitter) account. Joining Donal for this edition were wine expert Olly Smith, cookbook maestro Rukmini Iyer, and the beloved Ruth Jones of Gavin and Stacey fame. Matt Tebbutt's regulars need not fret; he's not under the weather but embroiled in launching a mouth-watering food initiative this week, reports the Express. Just the day prior, Matt had hopped onto Instagram to share news that he was buzzing in Marlow at the launch of Pub in the Park, mingling with friends. His post showed off a charming photo and the caption: "Launching @pubinthepark for 2025 at #marlow Great to catch up with @candicebrown and @ @thegreenmaneversholt @margoswoburn @58andco." Due to pre-commitments, Matt couldn't be part of today's live morning shoot for Saturday Kitchen. However, viewers were still treated to a fab line-up as Donal chatted with Ruth Jones about her latest book By Your Side, while the audience decided if she'd enjoy food heaven or endure food hell. Ruth was hopeful for a heavenly honey-roasted chicken, even if there lingered the threat of facing down her gastronomic nightmare - spicy Mexican beef tacos accompanied by a chilli-laden watermelon salad. Despite the surprise shake-up in the show's roster, viewers were eager to see what culinary delights Donal and his crew would whip up on the programme. One enthusiastic fan tweeted: "#saturdaykitchen Great to see @DonalSkehan hosting @SaturdayKitchen again [smiley emoji] @ BBC." Another viewer expressed their excitement: "#donalskehan #saturdaykitchen This episode is going to be amazing!" And another admirer shared: "@SaturdayKitchen So so pleased to see the amazing @DonalSkehan."
