Never has cookery on screen been so popular, and now even Bradley Cooper's caught the GBBO bug, it seems.

However, The four-time Oscar nominee makes the 'Great British Bake Off' contestants look pretty laidback, in this first trailer for 'Burnt', where he plays a chef with a past.

Bradley, fresh from Oscar-nominated success in 'American Sniper', plays Adam Jones, a Michelin-starred chef riding high at the top of the Paris restaurant scene, until his destructive lifestyle catches up with him and he loses everything.
