More4 orders Cooks’ Question Time

UK broadcaster Channel 4’s More4 channel has commissioned a new foodie series Cooks’ Question Time (WT).

The series will be made by UK producer Twofour and fronted by Great British Bake Off’s Sue Perkins.

In the series a panel of three well-known guest chefs will answer questions from a studio audience of aspiring cooks.

There will also be out of studio segments visiting buzzy restaurants and providing cookery tips.

The show was ordered by More4 commissioning editor Alex Menzies. He said: “Cooks’ Question Time is pitched at an unashamedly passionate food audience. It’s a very pure take on cooking and though we may be exploring food at the highest grade, we’re doing so in an entertaining environment and a conversational fashion that’s unexpected and accessible”.
