Celebrity Come Dine With Me: Meet the contestants

It's a great line-up!

Author: Nathan KatnoriaPublished 21st Jan 2020

After running for a whopping 41 series, Come Dine With Me has become a staple on our TV screens.

The show, which sees five strangers cook for each other in a bid to be crowned the best dinner party host, can be absolutely savage at times (who can forget that “Dear Lord, what a sad little life Jane” moment) and has spawned a number of spin-offs including a brand new celebrity series.

That’s right, 15 of our favourite celebs are set to flex their culinary muscles, or lack thereof, in a bid to win some money for a charitable cause.
