A Kent chef will be judging families' cooking skills on a new TV show set to rival The Great British Bake Off.

Rosemary Shrager, who runs a cooking school in Tunbridge Wells, is joining Giorgio Locatelli to judge BBC Two's The Big Family Cooking Showdown.

The show will be hosted by Nadiya Hussain who won the Bake Off in 2015.

The show will see 16 teams, spanning generations of one family, completing a series of challenges based on everyday meals with the judges visiting their homes to pick out the winners.

Families will have to demonstrate a wide variety of cooking methods.

The Big Family Cooking Showdown will be going up directly against Channel 4's reincarnation of The Great British Bake Off, who bought the format from the BBC last summer
