Who will be cooking up a storm in the kitchen this year? We can reveal that 2015's picks include four TV presenters, five soap stars, a handful of popstars and several sporting heroes.

90s pop star Chesney Hawkes of "I Am the Only And Only" fame joins X-Factor finalist and Big Brother presenter Rylan Clark alongside Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding and soap stars Sheree Murphy, Amanda Donohoe (former girlfriend of Adam Ant), Tish Potter, Craig Gazey and Scott Maslen.

Somehow Keith Chegwin and Sid Little have made the frame. Could these (debatable) stars of 80s TV be the next Roux Brothers? Unlikely.

The 10th series will kick off with four weeks of heats, where five contestants will face a series of challenges including the invention test and the preparation of a two-course dinner.

Hosted once more by Masterchef legends Gregg Wallace and John Torode, the show will look to find a new winner to join previous victors Ade Edmondson, Lisa Faulkner and Sophie Thompson.
