i might watch this if i don’t have to commit to 5 nights a week so a total of around 7 hours a week!? Not to mention the excessive promos literally every ad break, which means it if they do the same with this it will likely put me off enough to not bother
Collette Dinnigan’s a bit of a surprise. Always thought she was a really private person.
I thought Brendan Fevola coaxed Tommy Little to let slip he was a contestant, what happened to that?
That is a good cast, Rebecca Gibney is not the type i would expect to agree to a reality show.
thats a very impressive cast list.I guess these are higher grade celebs that dont want to be tortured or embarassed on TV in the other formats, so opted for cooking instead…hoepfully theres some decent cooks amongst them
Tilly Ramsay is a good young talent, good to see her on this.
Will be an interesting series to watch, with some charismatic entertainers involved.
Curious how this photo was developed during Vic COVID Restrictions though. Maybe the power of Photoshop?
Broadcasting is allowed to continue but would still have to follow safety rules.
Hasn’t Matilda Ramsey had a cooking show since she was about 12 years old? I saw her on James Corden doing a cooking demonstration. This is like Jennifer Grey from Dirty Dancing competing on US Dancing with the Stars. Not fair is it?
She is not a professional chef and everybody cooks, this is celebrity entertainment.
I can’t do it anymore – it runs in the background at dinner time
I have got no idea who the latest contestants are and i just don’t care
MasterChef is done for me
I won’t watch but we’ll done to them for not pulling out ex reality stars and the usual 10 faces.
Chrissie swan and Dilruk are probably the only 2 who’d be seen as “10” faces.
All too busy on Insta and more likely to order uber eats than cooking!
oops – meant to be a reply to Bruce Banner’s comment at the end…
Nice cast. Unusually for a celeb reality show, I am familiar with all but two of them.
Looking forward to this! Some big names and and a good mix of people.
Very good cast here, I think the show’s going to rate very well!
Some great gets here, I reckon Chrissie or Tilly have it in the bag though!
Oh I am so out of the loop…no idea who a couple of these are !
It’s the first celebrity show in years that I’ve known every name, with no bachelor/ette/love island/mafs stars included!
