James has proved a popular figure on TV screens for decades with his expert culinary skills as well as writing several best-selling cookbooks that will be on the Christmas list of many this year.

The chef recently informed followers on social media that he had to take a trip to hospital for an MRI scan, joking that he was "getting old" as he eased fears over a potential health problem.

As well as cooking demo's, the tour will include entertainment and live music to spice up his show for fans. Commenting on his decision to tour the UK again after this year's success, he said: "We all had an amazing time on the 2022 tour so I am delighted we get to do it all over again in 2023.

"I’ll be cooking live on stage and hopefully you’ll pick up some tips and tricks along the way but above all else we will have a laugh so get ready to enjoy a great night out."
