Celebrity Come Dine with Me has revealed the all-new batch of stars taking part in the savage cooking show.

Channel 4 exclusively revealed to Digital Spy that Love Island star – and former member of Blazin' Squad in case you didn't know – Marcel Somerville will be testing his cooking skills alongside some other famous faces.

Children's TV legend Dave Benson Phillips will also be joining the show along with presenters Anthea Turner and AJ Odudu and Chicken Shop Date's Amelia Dimoldenberg.

They'll be getting their scorecards ready from February 10 every weeknight on E4 at 7.30pm.

Celebrity Come Dine With Me will be back for a three-week run from January 27.

Also aiming to show their cooking skills, or lack of, are Love Island's Jack Fincham, Tracy Beaker star Dani Harmer, 5ive's Abz Love, Donna & Verona of E4's Pants on Fire (competing as a pair) and Made in Chelsea's Mark-Francis Vandelli.

Speaking about the new series, Simone Haywood, executive producer of Celebrity Come Dine with Me, said: "We are delighted to be able to take our successful format to a brand new audience on E4, as part of our ever-growing slate of productions across the country and across every genre.

"Come Dine with Me has always been hugely popular with younger audiences and we're excited to give it a fresh new twist with our Celebrity Specials."

The show's last celebrity special aired at Christmas and saw RuPaul's Drag Race star Courtney Act make a rather embarrassing mistake.

Celebrity Come Dine With Me begins on E4 on Monday, January 27 at 7.30pm.
