If your title it cooking with the stars - please have some on the show, There is plenty of celebrities out there who would have done a better job. Woody cook..... please never heard of him, this is nepotism at its worst because of his mum and dad. The format is good but if you don't have the rapport between chef celebrity you have no show, you need personality plus, sadly even Tom Allen can't carry this he is quality needs a better quality to front.

More celebrity trash.

I love Tom Allen, and he is great, but even he cannot save this show, you'd think that the people at the top would take a look at that viewing figures, and realise that people are now getting incredibly fed up with soulless, lifeless and vacuous celebrity shows, I wonder how long til we get to see building flatpack furniture with the stars (I think the term stars is pushing it a bit) or putting the rubbish bags out with the stars.
A few points for Tom Allen, but he is so much better than this, he's a cut above. I know that shows like this are cheap to make, but come on, trash like this may have been acceptable a few years back, but not anymore.
My bad, but I didn't know who some of them were.
Awful, 3/10.

It's hard to launch a programme in the summer, it's even harder when that programme is not good.
Robbing from more successful formats, and not exactly boasting big name celebs, this fell flatter than a pancake.
I'd be very surprised if it came back.

An enjoyable watch

Warning: Spoilers
Not a fan of reality shows, but this one (as well as one other which will not be named) is brilliant. A little confusing at first as all the celebrity contestants and chef helpers are present which leads one to wonder how in the world will they be able to do the competition in an hour's time. Turns out it is a tournament format. All four of the first round celeb contestants were engaging, did well when their chef guide taught them the meal they would be making and although mistakes were made (Johnny Vegas made the same mistake he almost made when being trained-poured about 2 cups of oil into his pan instead of the stock), their finished meals were close if not quite spot on. Seeing Shirley and Johnny's reactions when the chefs doing the judging chose them was a delight. The two losing celebs have to make a dessert to see who stays and who leaves. 8 chefs have to judge the desserts in a different room so they do not know who made which. They choose the colour of the plates which contain the dessert they liked best. The celeb who stays (Naughty Boy) goes back into the 'celeb pool' for the next show.
