The World Cook season 2 presenting team.

The World Cook season 2, hosted by Emma Willis and Fred Sirieix, is heading to Prime Video in March.

The five-part series will introduce us to 16 new contenders from around the globe, including professional chefs and passionate amateur cooks, all fighting to be crowned The World Cook.

Emma Willis says: "I'm so so happy to be back hosting The World Cook season two. This season promises to be a seriously fierce competition, with global cuisines, and heart-stopping moments. It’s a delicious gastronomic journey that will leave viewers hungry for more!"

Fred Sirieix adds: "Get ready for pulse-pounding showdowns, extraordinary culinary talents, and a sensory feast like never before. Season two is turning up the heat in the culinary world. The standard of cooking has truly blown me away — this is the cream of the crop. It's the Olympics of cooking competitions, and in the end, only one can emerge victorious.”

Joining Emma and Fred are judges Atul Kochhar, a twice Michelin-starred chef, and Great British Bake Off runner-up, Crystelle Pereira.
