Keith Duffy is ready to make a splash after he has been announced for a new reality show – Battlechefs.
The Dubliner is one of 10 celebrities who will take to the deck as part of UKTV’s new seabound cooking series.
“We’ll be cooking for the captain. Marco Pierre White gives you a dig out and after a week the captain chooses the best food,” he said.

“It’s just a bit of craic to be honest. I enjoy cooking. I do enjoy being in the kitchen, cooking, so I will be looking at different dishes that are local to the area that we are travelling to.”
The Boyzone singer admitted he shuns the traditional cookbooks preferring his own recipes when he’s in the kitchen.
“I’m not one to look at a cookbook and learn recipes. I’d rather just use what’s in the cupboards and in the fridge and throw a few pieces together,” he admitted.
Taking no time to rest, Keith is currently filming BBC children’s show Roy and revealed Boyzone will be undertaking a Middle Eastern tour.

“It’s a 12-week-shoot for about 15 or 16 episodes,” he said.
“I do Battlechefs in the middle of that out in the Mediterranean, then I’m doing Sleeping Beauty pantomime in Limerick for Christmas and then I go into rehearsals for Big Maggie in Dublin’s Gaiety theatre for six weeks until March.
“So I’m very busy, and Boyzone will be doing a Middle Eastern tour for around Paddy’s Day,” he told the Herald.
