Ready, set, cooooooook? Former Great British Bake Off judge Mary Berry has agreed to host a new BBC show to find Britain’s best home cook, the network announced Tuesday. The show, to be hosted by Claudia Winkleman, will have eight hour-long episodes. “I am never more at home than when I have my judging hat on,” Berry said in a statement. Berry left GBBO after it moved from the BBC to Britain’s Channel 4, a move that has been controversial with fans of the reality kitchen series. “At a time when British cooking has never been more varied, inspiring, or of such high quality, this series will test the real-life expertise of truly great home cooks,” said the broadcaster, in a statement.
