The chef's first episode will air this Thursday, where he will do battle against Fearne Cotton's team.

All, obviously, whilst under the ever watchful eye of Keith Lemon.

Keith Lemon said: “Looking forward to having me old pal from Sheffield cover for Holly whilst she's sprouting.

"I don't know how he's gonna keep up that fake Italian accent for a whole series but it's gonna be fantastico! As Gino says, or when he's out of character 'reet good'!”

Gino D’Acampo added: “I actually can’t believe it’s true…it’s going to be the gig of my year!

"A show where I can express myself, not through food, but through my sex positions. Which I will be very happy to demonstrate with Fearne.”

Fearne Cotton said: “I'll certainly miss Holly - and am slightly worried about Gino’s very naughty side - but it's going to be a lot of fun!"

Gino's first show looks set to be a controversial one, as none other than Katie Hopkins will be joining the Celebrity Juice gang on ITV2.

We guess we'll have to wait and see what happens...
