There were different names for the show, depending on which day it aired. The Saturday morning show was called ''Saturday Cooks!'', whilst the show that aired during the week was called ''Daily Cooks Challenge''. This series aired in a weekday prime-time slot and from its second series was shot in front of a studio audience. It has mostly been broadcasted on [[ITV3]] between 2008 and 2012 with new episodes on [[ITV1]]

Worrall Thompson, who previously hosted a similar [[BBC One]] show, ''[[Saturday Kitchen]]'', defected to ITV in June 2006 after being poached from the [[BBC]] along with the production company that made the show ([[Prospect Pictures]]), in a deal negotiated by [[Alison Sharman]]. It was Sharman who originally brokered the deal that brought Worrall Thompson to the BBC on ''Saturday Kitchen'' in the first place, before she herself moved to ITV.
