As a seasoned food enthusiast and avid follower of MasterChef, I am absolutely thrilled with this star-studded lineup for the 19th series! The blend of celebrities from various walks of life – from TV personalities to reality stars, actors, and even a Gladiator – promises an unparalleled culinary battle royale.


In the initial episode of Celebrity MasterChef that aired on BBC on Tuesday, it was Snoochie Shy who became the first contestant to leave the competition.

As a die-hard enthusiast, I must confess that I was utterly crestfallen when my beloved radio host, just 32 years young, exited the early rounds of competition due to falling short in winning over the stern culinary critics, Gregg Wallace and John Torode, with her tantalizing dishes.

As a long-time fan of celebrity culture, I must say that seeing This Morning’s Craig Doyle, Geordie Shore’s Charlotte Crosby, radio presenter Edith Bowman, Steps popstar Ian ‘H’ Watkins, and Snoochie step into aprons this week has been quite an unexpected delight. Each of these individuals has had a unique journey in the limelight, and it’s fascinating to witness their foray into the culinary realm.

The series is kicking off with four Heat weeks of three episodes aimed at testing the celebrities’ skills in the kitchen. 

Leaving, she remarked, “I’m sorry to depart, but given the numerous mishaps in that kitchen, it was evident I had to leave. Once home, I plan to unwind with a glass of wine and relax.”

In the premiere of Heat, the five new celebrity contestants faced the daunting ‘Under the Cloche’ test, where they had to prepare an original dish showcasing their culinary skills.

Next, they delivered a two-course dinner party menu.

In Snoochie’s dish, the main ingredient was eggplant, which she used to prepare a curry. However, the judges found the presentation of her dish less appealing.

At her dinner gathering, she prepared a different curry dish – specifically, a red Thai shrimp curry, followed by a delectable peach crumble for dessert.

John and Gregg didn’t seem very excited about her cooking another curry, since they were curious about her other talents.

They also said her crumble was too try and that the fruit to topping ratio wasn’t good enough. 

Earlier, she mentioned that her motivation for joining the show was its legendary status, as she has been a long-time fan.

“I came here to pick up some fresh ideas and techniques, hoping they’ll help me become a more confident cook in the kitchen, without worrying about accidentally serving something inedible to my friends!”

As a devoted enthusiast, I eagerly anticipate witnessing an outstanding array of celebrities hailing from both the silver and live-action stages, athletic arenas, and artistic realms, each vying for the coveted 2024 trophy.

In the highly competitive 19th series, both model and television personality Christine McGuinness and actress Danielle Harold from Eastenders are vying for the title.

In this competition, every celebrity will don an apron and dive right into the culinary world, with just one emerging victorious at the end to claim the prestigious title of MasterChef Champion 2024 – much like Wynne Evans did in the previous year.

Notable personalities engaged in competition are also Chloe Burrows, a well-known figure from reality TV shows, and Diane Carson, who gained fame on the series “The Traitors.”

Besides Emma Thynn, a model and TV personality, comedian and actor Eshaan Akbar, as well as Gladiator and Team GB sprinter Harry Aikines-Aryeetey are also set to make an appearance on the program.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be graced by the company of some exceptional personalities at our upcoming event. These include the talented Jake Quickenden, the witty Jamie MacDonald, the captivating Mutya Buena, and the charismatic OJ Borg from BBC Radio 2. Each one brings a unique charm that promises an unforgettable experience!

Joining the roster we have actress Rochenda Sandall, actor Tamer Hassan, and professional dancer Vito Coppola.

The show will kick off with four Heat weeks of three episodes aimed at testing the celebrities’ skills in the kitchen.  

Successful chefs will subsequently be given an opportunity to delve into the realm of a professional restaurant and conceive their own unique food truck dish.

In the quarterfinals, they encounter significant feedback from previous Champions and Finalists who are making their comeback.

Following the Heats, the eight victorious personalities will encounter what the semi-finals and subsequent Week hold for them.

As a seasoned food enthusiast and someone who has dined in various settings, I am thrilled about this upcoming opportunity to be part of crafting a luxurious dining experience aboard the British Pullman Train. The new pizza round, I believe, will add an exciting twist to our menu, making it even more enticing for passengers. Having worked in high-end restaurants, I understand the importance of staying focused and maintaining consistency as we prepare and serve each dish. This task requires a keen attention to detail and a strong team spirit, qualities that I am confident my colleagues and I possess. I look forward to this unique culinary adventure!

Ultimately, the renowned personalities will encounter a much-awaited chef’s table, along with a challenging task of preparing a dish they typically dislike eating.
