Saturday Kitchen host Matt Tebbutt suffered a minor knife injury during the live broadcast on Saturday, October 18, prompting a crew member to rush to his aid. The incident occurred while Tebbutt was assisting chef Adejoké Bakare with chopping vegetables.
Tebbutt, who returned to the show after being replaced by Alex Jones the previous week, called out to crew member Michaela: 'Can I get a plaster please? I've cut myself!' He then washed his finger and continued helping Bakare, declaring, 'I'm doing everything one-handed!'
Bakare praised his efforts, saying, 'Look you can do one-handed you're fine. You're flying!' A crew member quickly bandaged the cut, and Tebbutt apologised to Bakare, joking, 'Sorry Adejoké! This wasn't in the script!' He soon announced, 'Right, I'm all good back to normal!'
The mishap comes as Tebbutt prepares to join the judging panel for the upcoming series of MasterChef: The Professionals, alongside Marcus Wareing and Monica Galetti. He expressed his excitement, calling it 'an absolute honour' to work with the two culinary titans.
