Nigella Lawson will return to television this autumn with a BBC TV series to accompany her latest cookery book, Simply Nigella: Food to Nourish Body & Soul (Chatto & Windus), BBC2 controller Kim Shillinglaw announced yesterday (21st April), as part of a raft of new programming for the channel.

The Hairy Bikers, Mary Beard and Brian Cox will also be back.

The new Lawson series, "Simply Nigella", is her first for the BBC since "Nigelissima" in 2012, and will air in the autumn.  
Chatto & Windus announced Lawson's latest title in September last year, describing it as an "uplifting" new book that would be both "inspirational and practical".
