Olivia Attwood will host a new cooking reality TV show
Something new is cooking for Loose Women panellist Olivia Attwood - she's to present a meal-making reality TV show, which will see contestants filmed both in and out of the kitchen. The Heat will take place in Barcelona and involve ten chefs working under Michelin star chef Jean-Christophe Novelli, as he tries to find the next rising star for his new restaurant in the Spanish city. The show, which will be broadcast next year on ITV2 and ITVX, is not a straightforward cooking competition, as each day the cameras will keep rolling once the cast have finished in the kitchen. Viewers can expect promotions, demotions, power plays, sackings and shock decisions throughout the series, according to producers. Attwood, who has presented a number of documentaries for ITV, said: "It is such an honour to host this brand-new format for ITV2 and ITVX. Being at the helm of something this fresh and exciting is a total pinch-me moment!" Novelli, who has previously appeared as a judge on Masterchef Australia, said: "I couldn't be more thrilled to join this new exciting show and help spotlight the next generation of culinary talent. "Known for my drive and intensity in the kitchen, I'll be using my passion and unique teaching style to push these young chefs to dig deep, stay sharp, and prove they have what it takes to grow, evolve, and make their mark. "I'll mentor them to use all five senses together and put it all on the plate, the right way. It's going to be a wild ride, and I know we'll discover some true culinary stars along the way." Paul Mortimer, director of reality commissioning and acquisitions at ITV, said: " The Heat is the perfect fusion of a high-stakes cooking show with real-life drama, and with the fantastic Olivia at the forefront alongside the renowned Jean-Christophe calling the shots in the kitchen, it's shaping up to be a new reality obsession for our younger viewers on ITV2 and ITVX."
