Ferne McCann
Age: 30
Occupation: Reality TV star
Signature dish: "My dish is homemade hoisin pork tender loin with Asian slaw in lettuce wraps. My Dad used to always cook pork tender loin for us, it's a lovely succulent, affordable piece of meat that's so versatile and absorbs the flavours amazingly. My hoisin is one of my favourite things to make and it's a healthier version of the shop bought ones. I love sociable eating and this dish is brilliantly interactive, good for sharing and gets people talking."

Ed Byrne
Age: 48
Occupation: Stand-up comedian
Signature dish: "Smoked pork ribs. I cover them in a dry rub that I've been perfecting by trial and error for years, then shove them in a barrel smoker for about 10 hours, spraying them with apple juice and cider to keep them moist."

Rachel Johnson
Age: 55
Occupation: Journalist and author
Signature dish: "Macaroni cheese. It's a cheese bomb. It's an explosion of three cheeses, baked with pasta. What's not to like? If I say I'm making my famous mac n cheese it doesn't just bring the boys to the yard, people will drive for hours to stuff their faces with it until they are comatose."

Karim Zeroual
Age: 27

Ruth Madeley
Age: Actress
Occupation: 33
Signature dish: "I'm all about easy food! Anything in a big dish you can put in the middle of the table and everyone can dig in. Lasagne is a usual dish for me. My boyfriend, Joe, has Italian in his family so I've gained some tips from his mum."

Tom Read Wilson

Signature dish: "My most requested dish is my tiramisu. I love that it means 'lift me up' in Italian, and mine has a considerable slug of marsala wine so it really does!"

Desiree Burch
Age: 41
Occupation: Comedian and presenter
Signature dish: "It's a wondrous dessert monstrosity called Monkey Bread that's basically a bundt tin baked mountain of cinnamon rolls. I tend do to desserts for dinner parties or holidays, and found a recipe for this in my 20s. After bringing it to a Friendsgiving dinner one year, it became routinely requested well into my 30s among friend gatherings."

Occupation: Norwich City chairman and former shadow chancellor
