AINSLEY HARRIOTT TO FRONT WORLD CUP COOKING SERIES ON ITV

To coincide with the World Cup, Ainsley Harriott will officially be bringing football home - well, to the kitchen at least!

Mixing food and football, two things the nation holds most dear, Ainsley’s World Cup Flavours will be hitting the back of the net over five consecutive Saturdays in the lead-up to the tournament.

Joining Ainsley in the kitchen each week will be a squad of football VIPs; managers, players, and celeb footie fans will all be sampling the tasty dishes Ainsley’s whipping up.

These footballing legends will be showing off their knowledge, skills and tastebuds, and a small audience of football fans will be in the studio too, adding to the atmosphere, enjoying a specially made ‘half time pie’ - and maybe even throwing in a chant or two when a dish is ready.

This is one show that you’ll really want to go to Extra Time!
