Saturday Kitchen James Martin's departure from "Saturday Kitchen", the show has been hosted on rotation by a variety of chefs, restaurateurs, and food writers. Matt Tebbutt is, by far, the most frequent host, although Michel Roux and Donal Skehan have also hosted many episodes. Each week, a drinks' expert pairs various drinks to go with the studio dishes. Previously, the experts filmed on location at various supermarkets and wine shops around the UK. These were typically filmed earlier in the week, and edited in time for the show. Since April 2017, rotating experts have joined the host, the guest chefs, and the
Saturday Kitchen series went out live. After the success of the first two series, the programme was relaunched with established celebrity chef Antony Worrall Thompson as the host, initially guest hosting from May before taking over on 13 September. The format was tweaked, moving away from the educational remit and simple meals to more aspirational food with an increase in chefs, a number of whom had Michelin stars, and celebrity guests. The BBC archive was retained for the revamped format, with Worrall Thompson and the guest chefs preparing dishes, with the clips used to allow clean-up and "resetting" of the studio kitchen.
