Claudia Winkleman is set to front a high-profile reboot of Hell’s Kitchen after signing a deal with ITV.
The lucrative move marks a major TV comeback, reuniting the popular presenter with the fiery culinary format for the first time since she hosted the show’s fourth series back in 2009. However, fans of her work on the BBC need not worry—Winkleman will retain her hosting duties on the smash-hit reality series The Traitors.
The upcoming series sees hot-tempered chef Gordon Ramsay return to the UK format that launched his global TV stardom. Ramsay fronted the show’s debut series in 2004 before stepping back from the British version to focus on its US adaptation. Following his departure, culinary duties were handed over to Gary Rhodes and Jean-Christophe Novelli for series two, while Marco Pierre White took the reins for the third and fourth instalments.
The high-stakes celebrity cooking competition is slated to air nightly when it makes its return next year.
ITV has yet to officially confirm the revival or announce a release date.
