A Leeds student Facebook page was first to hear the news.

Students are known for their weird and wonderful culinary inventions. Whether you lived off pasta for the first year of halls or all you know how to do is put frozen food in the oven, students are often known for their lack of invention in the kitchen.

Apparently, finding the kitchen a challenge makes you the perfect candidates to get five minutes of fame in Leeds.

ITV Studios is looking for 18 – 30 year olds in Leeds that struggle to muster up anything in the kitchen as part of a new television series.

The show is casting for individuals that struggle in the kitchen and, of course, are happy to share that with the world.

The call for potential contestants was shared on the Leeds Students’ Group this week and has piqued plenty of interest over the last few days.

ITV Studios is looking for people aged 18-30 to take part in a huge new reality / competition series which see’s 10 people living together who are useless in the kitchen! With celebrity guests, different challenges throughout the show and a big cash prize to be won!

Despite advertising on the student page, it seems that anyone within these age brackets can apply for the show.

As you’d imagine, students aplenty were keen to apply, even if it meant confessing to their lack of culinary skills.

One said “So Big Brother student edition, I’m down” and another asked “can [we] dumb down your kitchen skills in order for an hour of fame?” with others chipping in tagging their friends with statements like “I reckon you could win, the way u cook those frozen nuggets is incredible“.

Although nothing has appeared on the ITV website for the programme yet, the Facebook post gives details about how candidates can apply for a spot on the show.

Last month, Channel 4 were also on the lookout for TV chefs in the making, though they were hoping for a professional level of cooking.

Entitled Come Dine With Me: The Professionals, Channel 4 has been looking for restaurants that can serve up the best food in town and share it on national television.

Those hopeful to make it on to the cult TV show will have to apply via Multi Story Media and email cdwm@multistory.tv, for more information you can visit the Come Dine With Me Facebook page.
