"He\'s said the most nerve-racking bit will be cooking his first dish for Gregg and John, but joked he\'ll try and charm them into liking whatever he comes up with."

\'The One Show\' host will be joined by tennis legend Andy Murray\'s mum Judy and \'TOWIE\' star Pete Wicks, as well as \'Top Gear\' presenter Chris Harris.

The 55-year-old judge praised the team behind the BBC One show, who worked extremely hard to wrap up the series before the government restricted movement to help prevent the spread of coronavirus.

He previously said: "We\'re chuffed that we finished it! And it really was all hands on deck to get it done.

"As the virus came creeping over the horizon we could see there would be potential problems and we worked very hard to get the series finished."
