New Judge Lorna McNee Joins Great British Menu

The Great British Menu is set to return for its 20th series in 2025, featuring a new judging panel that includes Lorna McNee, a former champion of the show. McNee replaces Nisha Katona, who has served as a judge for three years and expressed her fondness for the experience. The show's theme this season, 'Great Britons', invites chefs to create dishes inspired by important figures from their regions, with guest judges contributing to the decision-making process. McNee, the only female Michelin-starred chef in Scotland, highlighted the significance of the competition in her career advancement. Andi Oliver and Tom Kerridge will continue judging alongside McNee as they seek to celebrate both historical icons and unsung heroes through culinary creations. The series promises to showcase innovative dishes while providing a platform for emerging culinary talent.
