Celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain's show, Parts Unknown, is set to return for its 12th and final season this autumn. The award-winning CNN original series was in production when the TV personality, 61, committed suicide in his hotel room while shooting in France in early June. It is learnt that the seven-episode season does not have a premiere date yet.

One episode had been shot before his death — a trip to Kenya with W Kamau Bell, host of CNN's United Shades of America — and will be the final episode with Bourdain as the narrator. The remaining episodes will include travels to Manhattan's Lower East Side, the Big Ben area of Texas, the US-Mexico border, the Asturias region of Spain and Indonesia.
