Last year saw lots of famous faces – including ex-EastEnders star Joe Swash and former Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse – back in the kitchen in two separate specials.
Loose Women star and comedian Judi Love was crowned the champ in the first of two specials thanks to her Caribbean-themed Christmas dinner and Jamaican Christmas cake.
Judi was later joined by second winner, the Reverend Richard Coles, who is now the proud owner of the Golden Whisk after impressing Gregg and John with his roast partridge and five gold ring potato dish.
