A celebrity version of cookery series ‘Come Dine With Me’ will return to our screens this festive season.

The series kicks off with a Christmas Special, which is due to air from Monday December 16 to Friday December 20 at 7.30pm on E4. Further celebrity specials will follow throughout 2020.
TV and stage performer Debbie McGee, reality TV regular Charlotte Dawson, daughter of comedy legend Les Dawson and the self-proclaimed ‘Northern Soul of the North’; drag performer Courtney Act, best known for appearing in ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ and winning ‘Celebrity Big Brother’; Snapchat star Stevo The Madman, the self-titled ‘digital storyteller’; and BAFTA-winning children’s TV presenting duo Dick and Dom will go head-to-head in the week-long culinary challenge, battling to win a cash prize for charity.
