ITV has ordered the culinary format The Heat<\/em>, hosted by Olivia Attwood, from Twofour for ITV2 and ITVX.<\/p>\n

The Heat<\/em> will see ten ambitious chefs travel to Barcelona to work under multi-Michelin Star-winning chef Jean-Christophe Novelli, who is opening an exclusive summer restaurant at the Port Vell Marina. Each day when the kitchen service is over, the cameras will keep rolling to capture post-shift dates, staff nights out and more.<\/p>\n

As their professional and personal lives intertwine, tempers will flare inside and outside of the kitchen, especially as the chefs realize that no one\u2019s place is secure. Promotions, demotions, power plays, sackings and shock decisions throughout the series keep the contestants on their toes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is such an honor to host this brand-new format for ITV2 and ITVX,\u201d Attwood said. \u201cBeing at the helm of something this fresh and exciting is a total pinch-me moment!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t be more thrilled to join this new exciting show and help spotlight the next generation of culinary talent,\u201d Novelli commented. \u201cKnown for my drive and intensity in the kitchen, I\u2019ll be using my passion and unique teaching style to push these young chefs to dig deep, stay sharp and prove they have what it takes to grow, evolve and make their mark. I\u2019ll mentor them to use all five senses together and put it all on the plate the right way. It\u2019s going to be a wild ride, and I know we\u2019ll discover some true culinary stars along the way. I\u2019m ready. Let\u2019s do this. Allez, Allez\u2014bon app\u00e9tit!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Heat<\/em> is the perfect fusion of a high-stakes cooking show with real-life drama, and with the fantastic Olivia at the forefront alongside the renowned Jean-Christophe calling the shots in the kitchen, it\u2019s shaping up to be a new reality obsession for our younger viewers on ITV2 and ITVX,\u201d said Paul Mortimer, director of reality commissioning and acquisitions for ITV.<\/p>\n

David Clews, chief creative officer for Twofour, said, \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to bring The Heat<\/em> to ITV2 and ITVX, a reality-cooking competition crossover sure to dish out delicious drama. With the incredible Olivia Atwood hosting and the legendary Jean-Christophe Novelli in charge, we couldn\u2019t be more thrilled. They really are a fabulous combination.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFilming is underway in Barcelona, and it\u2019s so exciting to see our ambitious young chefs enter the heat of the kitchen, as well as having the time of their lives in the city too,\u201d added Dan Gray, executive producer for Twofour. \u201cThe series really is shaping up to be absolutely unmissable.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
