BBC Saturday Kitchen fans 'can't wait' as show makes major announcement
The long-running BBC show has been fronted by many famous faces over the years, including the likes of James Martin and Antony Worrall Thompson.
It looks as though there's set to be big celebrations this weekend for the Saturday Kitchen team as the show is hitting its 20th year on BBC One.
Although the long-running culinary show first aired in 2002 on BBC2, it underwent a major revamp in 2006 when it permanently moved to BBC1 with celebrity chef James Martin at the helm, replacing Antony Worrall Thompson.
However, after a 10-year stint, James stepped down from his role and was replaced by Matt Tebbutt as the main presenter on the programme, where he's remained ever since.
This weekend will mark the 20th year since Saturday Kitchen's major revamp and move to BBC One, and they've teased that viewers can expect something big.
On Instagram, they captioned a post which said: "We've got something exciting coming your way on Saturday... "
The post featured a string of famous faces who have featured on the programme over the years, including Rick Stein, Andi Oliver, Helen McGinn and actress Liz Carr.
It wasn't long before fans of the long-running show commented on the post rushing to congratulate them on the huge milestone. One person said: "Woo hoo, happy 20 years to the best team in good TV. Congratulations."
Another fan added: "20 years, wow. And still the best show on TV, bar none. My Saturday mornings just would not be the same without my dose of Saturday Kitchen to set me up for the weekend. Congratulations on the big milestone."
Someone else wrote: "Many congratulations!! Excited to see the show." While one person commented: "Wowww, exciting!! Happy Anniversary."
One fan added: "Looking forward to the Anniversary show." As another person who made an appearance on the show said: "Happy anniversary! You're a wonderful team, and it was a pleasure to be invited to cook on the show. It was an unforgettable experience, and I must admit, I was a bit starstruck."
Saturday Kitchen airs June 6 on BBC One at 10am.
