It’s celebrity Master Chef it is going to be tough  I know it’s going to be tough these celebrities   are all passionate about food what I lack and  talent I make up for and and enthusiasm we’re   looking for that exceptional cooking style  someone who’s more than just a good home  

Cook someone with that extra something  special I just hope they’re nice to me [Music] these six celebrities believe they’ve  got what it takes to become Master Chef but   who will really have the talent to find  out they must survive three rigorous tests first they have to invent two dishes from  scratch out of a mystery box of ingredients I  

Got to say I think it looks better than it tastes  then they have to survive the pressure of cooking   for paying customers I’ll never ever want to do  this again as long as I live and they must wow the  

Judges with their best two courses you could  serve that up in a restaurant you could sell   that dish that’s how good it is but after all of  that only two can make it through to the [Music] quarterfinals it’s day one and the first three  celebrities now have to prove what they’re made

Of Welcome to celebrity Master Chef  this is the first round and actually   is probably one of the toughest  rounds you’ll encounter we’re not   asking you to do M star food what we  want to see from you is a glimpse of potential let’s

Cook the celebrities have just 50 minutes to  create two exceptional dishes from ingredients   which include rice noodles apples bacon  blackberries pork fillet cabbage potatoes   and Vine tomatoes what they’ve got to do here  this morning is just keep their nerve they  

Have no idea what ingredients they’re going to  get and we want two courses from them if they   can just try and relax and cook like they do at  home they should be fine easier said than [Music] done you and Thomas is an Olympic medalist he’s  most certainly competitive but has he got the  

Cookery skill to match his Competitive Edge  most people think as a professional athlete   my diet must be really really good but to be  honest with you it’s not I’m always hungry I   love my food I’m always always in the kitchen  I just hate clearing up after myself what are  

You making for us today you today I’m going  to make a carbonara and then some potato daff   I want to go along with the uh turkey which  I thought was chicken when I first looked at  

It but it’s pork pork then yeah turkey chicken  pork one of those what do you want to get out of   Master Chef y I don’t claim to be the best  cook but everything I do I’m compared I so  

Without a doubt I want to try and get through  today every I’ve called my pork chicken and   you know turkey turkey it’s not going down  too well but as long as it tastes [Music] right you’ve had 25 minutes 25 minutes

Gone Dena Payne emod actress and her character  is somebody who works in a half now the girl can   make a cup of tea but can she cook two good  courses when I was four I used to copy my  

Mother that’s where I learned all my cooking  skills if I’ve got any my family and friends   enjoy my cooking when I am working from 7:00 in  the morning sometimes to 8:00 9 at night I will   still try and cook wow Dena you are baking yes  brilliant crumble I love crumble oh that’s right  

Yeah yeah yeah as long as got custard so why  have you decided to come on Master Chef I do   like cooking and I used to throw dinner parties  before I got into emodel and also I like I like  

A bit of a challenge so how far do you think  you can you can go I think if I get further   than today and I start to see the light at  the end of the T tunnel I think the elbows  

Will start to come out and it’ll be watch  out you got quarter of an hour left that’s it RAV has been in the British Army and he’s been  a policeman he’s now a television presenter that  

Guy understands pressure and he’s used to being  in a tight spot but how much time has RAV had   to actually cook RAV how’s the pressure of today  horrible already is horrible really really really   full on today it’s just the conditions it’s the  exam conditions that I feel that I’m under at  

The moment and it’s uh it’s bizarrely a lot of  pressure actually and how far do you think you   can go in this competition I the competition  is going to be very very Fierce and uh the two  

People behind me are certainly up for this  so it’s going to be tough well I will do my best I was scared I want the food to be  good but I’m not an expert on what goes  

Well with what I might have something in my  head that I think would look really nice and   it probably in reality [Music] wouldn’t  and that could let me down with the judges last 5 minutes you got  to think about plating It Up Now 60 seconds 1 minute left that’s it that is

[Music] it for his first dish Olympian Yuan has made rice  noodles with a Carbonara sauce rice noodles for   a coup hour is just wrong it should be pasta now  what will happen with rice noodles they start to disintegrate it needs more pepper  it needs more spice to it it’s quite

Gluggy it’s a little bit gloopy a little bit  globby but flavors are all right can youan redeem   himself with his second dish of pork with roast  potatoes and a tomato [Music] sauce the sauce is  

Very sharp and lots of vinegar by the taste of  it I got to say I think it looks better than it tastes there are issues here because that sauce  is far too sharp and your porks overcooked not   the greatest first round I’ve ever [Music]  seen Emma Dale’s Dina hopes to impress with  

Her pork escalopes with potatoes cabbage and  bacon carrots and an armanac [Music] sauce   the meat is still moist that sauce is lovely love  the way you cook the Cabbage little bits of bacon   salty bacon running through it I think that  is a very very very impressive start to this

Competition I really enjoy that wonderful sauce  you know I think the flavor of the pork for me is   an absolute stummer okay thank you her second dish  is a blackberry and apple crumble with [Music]   cream sweetened to absolute perfection absolute  perfection I think with the time you had I really

Impressed sour tar Apple sweet black Brees  and then the crunch of the crumble on top   you know you’re on your way ah feel quite  relaxed and quite pleased so I have a little smile what will the judges  make of rav’s combination of   sauteed potatoes with bacon Vine  tomatoes and a carrot and onion

Salad the tomato taste of lovely Sweet Tomato  the carrot and onion salad Taste of carrot and   onion salad bacon slightly overcooked  the potatoes Taste of potatoes um day one the combination of a carrot and onion salad  with fried potatoes is is never going to be groundbreaking his second dish is a Blackberry

Cheesecake I don’t mind the flavor  of it cuz you got the sweet biscuit   you’ve got the sourness of the  blackberries I’d eat the whole lot the sharpness and the sweetness of  the Blackberry comes through you got a   very nice buttery base it’s good that  that’s nice to hit I’ve never made one  

In my life that’s the first time I’ve  ever attempted to make one of those   ever interesting very interesting you  are finished for now thank you off you go there’s been some good bits there’s been some  bad bits and there’s been the odd disaster Yuan  

Used noodles and thought he had angel hair pasta  he mistook the pork for chicken and turkey the   guy’s ambitious he’s driven he wants to learn  it’s just whether he’s good enough to keep up   with the rest of the competition in the room  as a sportsman you know you lose more races  

Than you win and not being like cliche but I’m  going to come back stronger for the next round   for defit I’m already really disappointed so  I know for the next round I’m going to give it  

Everything I do want to win RAV made a really nice  cheesecake and he’s never made a cheesecake before   in his life but he had an absolute disaster with  his other dish raw Tomatoes bits of overcooked   bacon God that was awful I didn’t know what  to make didn’t know half the ingredients were  

Were and then 5 minutes to go came around like  that so I had to make an ad hoc creation but the   cheesecake was very very good there is a cook  there there is definitely a cook there dena’s  

Pork was stunning I just like the brain that  looked down and thought Oh black braen apple   crumble I mean absolute classic she’s going to  take some catching if I got over this hurdle and   was a bit further down the line then perhaps yeah  the competitive Instinct will kick in but um at  

The moment it’s just um taking every step as it  comes Dina looks great but RAV or Yan could catch   her there’s two big rounds to go the kitchen round  will say a lot about the character of these three

Cooks never been in a professional Kitchen  in my life that is by far my biggest fear   I’m really really nervous about it when  I was 16 I was a salad made at Gatwick   Airport I’m very aware of the stress strain and  language in a kitchen you don’t get medals in  

The Heats the purpose of the Heats is to  get rid of all the duffers hopefully they   won’t get rid of me and I can come back  tomorrow I’m still breathing and [Music] improve it’s day two and you and Dina and RAV  arrive at the panasian restaurant Gilgamesh  

In the heart of London’s Camden Town head chef  Ian penelli expects nothing but the best just   to let you know what’s going on today it’s  a very big restaurant very very uh Fast and   Furious service so expect to be working  very hard today no mockups today Focus okay

In service Olympic medalist Yuan will be in  charge of the spiced Lamb with cream spinach   and a Wasabi kabi puree I’m not happy it’s  a hot section cuz I’m going to be sweating   like a pig but um all I can do is my best  this is it emad’s Dina will be preparing  

The Thai rare beef salad normally on emale  I’m being somebody else and she works in a   calf and only PR to cut up tomatoes and things  crime watch presenter RAV is responsible for   the salad of lobster avocado and salmon on Lotus  chips do you know what it’s so hot already and  

We haven’t even started trying to remember  a million different things I’ve been taught   it’s going 100 miles an hour and and we haven’t  even had the first order in yet so really really nervous it’s 12:00 and the orders start FL  flooding in can I one Tai salad one avocado  

Lobster salad one spice slam [Music] yes  yesterday didn’t go as well as it could   have done for me and I want to improve  I want to impress the judges so you know   sink or swim now you Chef I need your first  Lam yes chef order up Chef what’s wrong with  

That PL not hot it’s freezing by the time he  gets the customers it’ll be cold yes Che it’s   pressure isn’t it it’s not like cooking for  your mates so we’re going to be polite and   say oh it’s really nice and then they get  home and go oh it’s disgusting this is real  

Dinner how long for that beef salad please  2 minutes Chef I get my stopwatch out shall I yes I’m a bit worried about  the amount I mean if suddenly   60 people want these I mean you know hey come on dinner really nice really nice  got a fun print got a what thumb  

Print will dena’s second attempt Fair any better no last time last time no thumb prints on  the bowl while head chef wipes away the prince   crime watch presenter RAV is busy plating his  intricate lobster salad he’s got fingers like  

Pork sausages it’s very delicate business you know  so you know he’s going have to put out the bag I’m   not the daintiest of BLS I’m nearly 16 Stone  and I’ve got to make this beautiful beautiful   dish um so yeah I’m a little bit apprehensive  about [Music] that it’s the first dish look  

At it Lobster Lotus chip Lobster Lotus Chip he’s  forgotten the lobster and must start again do you   know what I’ll never ever moan about presenting  ever again because it is a complete walking apart   compared to this like guys I’m getting green  forish it’s quite embarrassing yeah you and  

Is the only one keeping up so far thank you Chef  don’t thank me mate service is now in full swing   we got numerous orders on thinking how you do two  or three at the same time I can’t afford to wait  

Too long order up sh the lamb dish is proving  popular and you got another six on order and   youan can’t fall behind this is very different to  Athletics that’s my comfort zone I’ve trained all   year round there is no training here however  there’s your walk this is your dishit better  

Be good do it thank you okay lamb now Chef Lamb’s  up y your Lamb’s looking lovely mate all right up   really nice really nice the lamb I thought was  delicious that would definitely be my favorite   and a customer actually complimented it I can’t  believe it I’m loving it after a rocky start can  

RAV deliver a perfect dish it’s good it’s good  keep it up right like this you you’re right this   is this is completely different to my day job  my day job I’m giv some lines and I just say  

Them down a camera this I’m giv something that’s  completely alien to me meanwhile Dena is about to   face her biggest challenge 1 2 3 4 you’ve got  seven typ salads on it is daunting because you  

Don’t want to let them down when they paid a lot  of money for it but I won’t let them down youve   got seven all you going have to move it a little  bit Yeah Dina please yes the place not going again  

Got seven an order but with so many orders on  the go her standards start to slip Dana yes   chef look at this oh I mean could you eat that  no I wouldn’t the customer living outside oh I’m  

Sorry [Music] up after two hectic hours service is  finally over at the beginning Dina was I think all   over the place and she couldn’t seem to grasp the  fact that you can’t put your fingers all over the   plate there’s just fingerprints everywhere but  as a service one on she eventually got better  

And better and better my kitchen’s never that  stressed now I don’t really like cooking under   that pressure R was a bit grubby today you know  and I’m looking at lob salad there’s actually no  

Lobs on it which is you know not very nice at  all is it it was so hard you know it was I’m   doing fiddly little bits these great big banana  hands and it just it just didn’t work I think I  

Was impressed mostly by you and all of his lamb  was to Perfection so I had no no complaints there   but generally I thought his work was very good  I could not have done better I can look in the  

Mirror no I couldn’t have tried any harder end of  story the person the hungriest who wanted it more   than anybody else’s youan and so you know you I  think it’s got the most potential now they’re back   to Master Chef HQ to show how the restaurant has  improved their own cooking I’m absolutely naked  

But um I’ve got to raise my again just got to  get a second wind and really go for it it’s the   last lap quite really relieved really getting  there it’s been quite tiring today just got to  

Keep calm and uh one more hour of hard draft and  then then it’s out of our hands what we’ll be will be ladies and gentlemen at the end of this we  will have one person going through 1 hour let’s cook

After two disappointing rounds RAV now needs  to impress the judges now I’ve been cooking   for a really long time right yeah and I cannot  work out from the ingredients you’ve got on here   what you’re making I’m going to do some uh  some what I call Creole prawns which is my  

Dad’s from an island called marcius and it’s  a kind of spicy mix of prawns bit of coconut   milk and but tell me how the potatoes fit into  this main course I’m going to have potato very   very small amount of mashed potato around the  side okay and then for dessert I’m going to  

Do a key line Pie as a man who’s been in the  forces you understand competition if I’ve got   a chance of winning something I want to win  it three old P fantastic idea I’m not quite   sure about mashed potato with coconut [Music]  milk after struggling in the Pro Kitchen Dina  

Now needs her food to be as good as yesterday’s  apple crumble and pork dishes Dina you look a   lot more relaxed than yesterday yeah well  I’m in my comfort zone now what are you   cooking for us I’m cooking um lamb marinated  in rosemary garlic and then crepe Suzette are  

These dishes good enough to get you through to  the next round I hope so yeah you know Bring It On Dina lamb and rosemary we know the girl can  cook meat very very well with great great flavors  

Yes but is it inspiring it’s got to be very  very good John because we’ve eaten it a 100   times [Music] before having proven himself in the  restaurant can Yan continue to overcome his rice   noodle carbonara disaster Y and you’re running  around the bench today like you’re on fire I’m  

Buzzing to be honest I just want to improve and  show you that I can cook well cuz yesterday I   didn’t do that what is it you think we want  from you now I’m hoping you’ll want to see   determination and character that I can back so  you know onwards and upwards hopefully without  

Sounding cliche this is the last 100 me from me  in the race I’ve got to pull it out the bag give   it everything I want to get [Music] through he  wants this job he’s he’s inspiring me but will  

That enthusiasm make him make a lot more errors  like he did [Music] yesterday two minutes that’s it you need to get on your plates in 60 seconds left step away from your  benches your time is up finished [Music] done dena’s main is roast lamb with  rosemary and garlic on a bed of creamed  

Carrots with onion sauce and minted potatoes  followed by a crepe Suzette with quantro [Music] lure strong flavor of Rosemary on that lay I like   that I like the sweetness through  the onion I like the dish okay thank

You I don’t get the carrot very much because the  carrots become quite sweet but the onion is also   sweet your Lamb’s cooked absolutely perfectly  I think everything on the plate is seasoned   very very well it’s very good indeed oh great  thanks finish for your lamb let’s bring in your

Pancake lovely soft pancake get orange juice   don’t get that heat of booze it  needs that Dimension that gives Heat the pancake is absolutely perfect  the sauce is very very rich from   the orange juice and still lovely and  sweet it just doesn’t have the depth it

Needs RAV needs to impress with a starter of  Creole prawns in coconut milk with chili and   peppers and a mustard Mash followed by  a key lime pie with a ginger nut biscuit base [Music] there is that lovely sweetness of the  coconut milk and there’s a small amount of Spice  

From the mustard inside the mash I don’t  believe they actually work together very well I think uh leave the mustard out the mash  I think that flavor should be that prawn sauce   okay I don’t I don’t think this has been  hugely successful okay let’s move on to

This I think it’s perfectly balanced  I think it looks fantastic I really   like it like really really really like it thank you buttery gingery biscuit sweetness  and lime sharpness as well that is   very very yummy thank you very much  honestly you could serve that up in a  

Restaurant you know that you could  sell that dish that’s how good it is Yan has made a starter of chili and garlic  tiger prawns with green beans followed by a   Parmesan nutmeg and chili burger with chunky chips  and a Romero pepper and onion relish it looks like  

It’s going to be quite spicy cuz we’ve got a  huge amount of dried chili out the top of it yeah oh yeah they’re spicy and they  should be spicy because the PRN itself   is very rich and very meaty and tastes  the sea I really really enjoy it thank

You it comes in sweet with a praw and  then it smacks you around the face with   the chili absolutely bang on thank you very  much let’s move on from your prawns to your burger perfect perfect chips absolutely  perfect chips I think the idea of the  

Flavoring inside your burger is a very  very good one there’s cheese and there’s   nutmeg and all sorts of things in there  and as Burgers go that’s a pretty good one you get the sweetness of that relish that  becomes heat sweet going to heat which I really  

Like and I like the meaty flavor of the burger  not bad at all have you had a better round today   than you had yesterday oh a million times better  than yesterday whether it’s good or enough I don’t  

Know but in terms of the race today obviously I’ve  crossed the finish line and hopefully I’ve got a   bigger chest in them two I’m not quite sure though  John and I really appreciate the hard work you’ve  

Put in today we have some serious judging to do  off you go ladies and [Music] gentlemen we’ve had   some really lovely food today really really lovely  food I’m really impressed with these three they’re   really listening they really want to do this and  that’s that makes it really exciting RAV I loved  

His key line pie exactly the right balance between  sweetness sharpness a really wonderful wonderful   dessert I’m most happy with the dessert that  I’ve just done because I’ve actually only ever   made it once in my life and um that was actually a  disaster but I still have my concerns about Savory  

Dishes with him rav’s prawn dish didn’t didn’t  work is one dish enough to getting through to   the next round I think we should dismiss rev at  this stage so let’s knock out RAV and let’s talk  

About you and andina Yan had a really bad run  yesterday but seemed to pull himself up and go   for it in the professional kitchen and then come  in here with this determination to make a smile   and enjoy the food that burger just looked Looney  but there is something quite interesting about  

The flavors in the burger nutmeg cheese and he  made very very good chips in fact almost perfect   chips lovely and crispy outside they love the  flavors they thought it was wacky so hopefully   they’d see that as a sort of that I’m kind of  a bit Arty Arty FY maybe I enjoyed his food  

But there are huge holes in his food knowledge  there is not another cook in this room John by   country mile who has as much cookery knowledge  as Dina lamb and the Rosemary absolutely lovely  

Then we go into a very very classic dish of crepe  suette but it didn’t have that depth and heat the   alcohol gives it this is the very first hurdle and  I might be going under it not over it so hey you  

Know I think Dena is technically very good and I  think she has the makings of a very good cook I   think we have an interesting decision to make do  we take the risk of somebody who could be a rising  

Star or do we stay slightly safe with somebody who  we know can cook very well not easy not [Music] Easy the person going through the next [Music] round is Yan [Music] congratulations well Done yes of course I’m a bit disappointed they  haven’t chosen me to go through well that’s their   loss but anyway best man won and that’s great and  I’m really pleased for him more things went wrong  

Than went right for me but I don’t think they  disappointed I’m I’m happy with how it went I’m   happy that you know I gave it my best shot and  I’ve learned that ex [Music] saw I’m I’m really  

Happy I thought i’ blown it yesterday I thought  without a doubt I didn’t start off too well if I   can improve this much in a day in a hopefully I  can keep improving I’m chuffed I do la of Honor

[Music] Yan will be back for the quarterfinals  but up next three more celebrities battle to join him I do feel extremely nervous I feel  like it’s my first day at school [Music]   I’m feeling nervous but excited I haven’t  got a clue what today is going to be like  

I’m passionate about cooking but only  those small things that I like to cook   as long as it doesn’t be the worst  dish ever in Master Chef I’ll be Happy we want from you today two plates  of food you have wonderful ingredients   to work work with we want to see what it  is you know if you really want to be a   great cook your opportunity is Here and Now  ladies and Gentlemen let’s cook celebrity  

Master Chef we are dealing with people  who are household names they’re on here   to show us just how good they can cook  John they must dream each one of these   of lifting this Master Chef title today we’ve  got three stars and I just want to see somebody

Sparkle the celebrity have 50 minutes to  create two exceptional dishes from ingredients   which include smoked hadock bacon mango fennel  spaghetti raspberries Ginger biscuits and dark chocolate Janet Ellis was a blue Peter presenter  John she can make anything she will not only cook  

She’ll rebake the oven the thing I’m best known  for repita we were always encourage marage to have   a go at things but that was it we were having a  go we didn’t actually have to get it right this  

Time I’ve got to get it right how you feeling  ridiculously nervous but actually the act of   cooking is calming me it has having its usual  therapeutic effect but you obviously cook I   certainly wouldn’t describe myself as a chef but I  love the Alchemy of the Roar to the cooked how far  

Do you think you can go in this composition  if I can keep my nerve I think I’ll be all right you’ve had the 30 minutes  you have only 20 to [Music] go Simon Shephard an actor we know him from  Peak practice but he also comes from a family  

Which is involved in the cing industry he must  have been exposed to great food my dad used to   run a restaurant which he had for 30 years but  um my personal cooking is just cooking for the  

Family and I’ve had no training at all how much  cooking do you do a lot we’ve got four kids so um   we both do a lot I’ve never done it under pressure  though before at best how good are you pretty good

Yeah Colin marray is used to being put on the  spot the guy does live radio but what’s he   going to be like being put on the spot with  a set of ingredients he’s never seen before  

I just love cooking but because I’m such a  busy person I tend to make food that I can   turn around in 20 minutes so I’m I’m a basic  cook why do you love to cook I rarely get time  

To cook so when I I just like the creativity  of it I’m not great at you know being able to   identify everything and all but I just have  such fun doing it you know and I just I just  

Love I love eating sometimes what I cook it tastes  better than it looks that’s always been my Mantra really five minutes left only five [Music] last touch is one [Music] minute ladies and gentlemen your time is [Music] up can Peak practice actor  Simon impressed with his  

First first dish a classic smoked hadock [Music] chowder great flavors with a smoky fish  great flavors texture it’s too watery right I think your flavors are good but chowder  should be gutsy and Big And Chunky sure his   second dish is a rustic spaghetti with bacon  fennel and drizzled lemon garnished with Water

Crest lovely fennel the taste of the bacon  in there is is really good it just needs   a good crack of pepper just taste your food  Simon you know cook as if you want to eat it yeah bowl of pasta doesn’t need decoration on  the side it definitely doesn’t need to lots  

Of decoration one on either side the beauty  should come in the flavor former blue Peter   presenter Janet’s first dish is smoked hadock  with sweet potato mash and a blue cheese bashal sauce that deep smoked flavor against something  sweet is unusual I can probably handle it what  

I am finding difficult is the texture fish  is soft obviously a creamy white sauce and   and then we’ve got mashed veg everything is  a little bit too much blong in texture inid food an absolutely perfect white sauce with  a big hint of blue cheese but that is St to  

Overpower the sweet potato and there is that  texture issue will Janet’s experimental salad   of bacon fennel mango ginger and chili  fa any better wow that’s that’s a lot of [Music] ingredients I would never dreamed of   putting those ingredients together but  actually it works and and it works very

Nicely fennel bacon and mango it works  I found it very refreshing yeah wow okay it’s a revelation in my life because  the idea of fennel and bacon and mango   together on one plate with chili and  Ginger is almost impossible but it

Works radio presenter Colin has opted to  make an open sandwich with bacon tomato   onion and blue cheese you know I don’t mind  the fact that the idea of you’re doing a   toasted sandwich cuz actually what you’ve  done is done food that you would like to

Eat your flavor com com minations are  great well you’ve got flavor from the   bacon you got flavor from the onions your tomatoes   are still nice and sweet the salt into  the blue cheese on top you have a good palette absolutely nothing wrong with those  flavors my friend that you don’t have to make  

An apology for it’s the look of this thing you’ve  got to make an apology for will his raspberry   crumble with hot chocolate sauce taste as good I  understand crumble and bastard crumbling chocolate sauce I will stick by what I said to  you earlier you got a good palette you  

Understand what flavors go together because the  ginger nut biscuit is um a little bit spicy the   raspberries are sharp the topping is lovely and  sweet and chunky a Jugger custard on the side   of that would have been delicious but actually  chocolate sauce and crumble is not going to go

Together flavors are lovely abs abely lovely sweet  yet a little bit of sharp on the raspberry you got   a real crunch to that top it needs cream or  custard to just help you cope with that much   sharpness there was a few things I should  have done that that didn’t do but I’m glad  

The flavors work thanks for your efforts we  are now going to talk about you a lot off you go days like today I get inspired because we’ve  got three celebrities walking in the door set of   ingredients have never encountered before and all  of them got food up which tasted pretty good and  

That is a great great start John there is promise  out there I’m uh I’m quite excited by them um I   think Simon has a very good understanding of  good rustic food Simon cooked us smoked Heche  

Chow and Chow it should be big and it should  be gutsy and it should have big chunks of fish   and potato through it and he just mashed it up  and turned into something which was completely   overwork but a chowa followed by Pastor John  that’s the right idea I think we’ve got good  

Things to come from him I was pleased with the  with the flavors and the textures of the pasta   but I was cross with myself because I stupidly  garnished it um Janet I’m very impressed that   she came straight in here and made herself a  white sauce that salad John was marvelous and  

It was a scary listen ingredients as well they  work really well salty bacon honey sweet mango   little hint of chili I’ve really enjoyed that  salad Janet is definitely the most technically   proficient Janet’s issue for me has to be about  texture that adct with the MK and everything it  

Was all a bit in her own words invalid food I  didn’t actually agree about the soft things I   I like that those soft things together and if  I’m going to distract myself by fighting with  

Greg and John I’m not going to get very far uh  Colin has got a lot of work to do to catch up   with the other two although bacon tomato cheese  on a bit of toast actually it tasted nice but  

It just looked awful it’s not master chef quality  it doesn’t have finesse but I did use the flavors   I wanted and they did like him so maybe it worked  out okay he’s crumble I think you’ve got a really  

Good blend of sweetness and sharpness in there  but again it it looked like nothing on Earth   but he’s got a great pette tomorrow we’re  sending them to a professional kitchen we   have to apply the pressure by the end of tomorrow  they are going to realize what Master Chef is all  

About the restaurant is a completely unknown  quantity I have no idea what to expect it is   very daunting I’ve been in professional kitchens  because my father had a restaurant Resturant but   it was a very different sort of restaurant to  the one I suspect we’re going into tomorrow  

I’m really liking the idea of just getting sweaty  in the kitchen and you know bring on the [Music] pressure it’s early morning and Simon  Janet and Colin arrive at manico situated   in the heart of the city of London it  serves modern Italian cuisine with the  

British twist the celebrities will be  working under executive chef Tom salt   who wastes no time explaining what they  can expect we really really busy today   for lunch so we need to you know crack  on and let’s get ready let’s do some

Cooking so we’ got all your lovely bits and  Bobs in here Simon is making the warm seafood   salad with ARA chokes tomato lemon and Basel  I just want to do it as well as I possibly  

Can I don’t want to let calm down at all Janet is  responsible for ricotta beetroot and potato anel   with Pini mushrooms the dish sounds very daunting  it’s got a lot of individual ingredients a lot   of different cooking techniques and I really  want to get it right Colin is making pheasant  

Stuffed with black truffle wrapped in Palmer ham  with Chestnut and faroh [Music] risotto after 2   hours of prep lunchtime service begins okay guys  check on Buffalo mozzarella see if you Sal yes chef check on four seafood salad yes

My finger can I come with you Jeff yeah it’s not  very good it’s really cut the nail off Simon cut   is so severe Chef decides he can’t carry on with  service I’m very very angry with myself and I’ve  

Let down everybody in the kitchen I feel really  stupid okay check on you’ve got four an your   lotto yes after her earlier mistakes Janet needs  to prove [Music] herself yeah that’s cool that’s   cool now just tidy the plate up brilliant thank  you this started off being harder than anything  

I’ve done but I think I’m cooking now so you’ve  got four feasant yeah four I’ve got yeah yeah   while on the other side of the kitchen Colin is  still thriving under the pressure it’s qu to 2  

And it’s all going to be over soon and I’m going  to be gutted that it’s over col yes sir they good   onek all the same that’s what you’re looking for  is the same thank you after two long hours service  

Is finally over okay guys well done it’s a good  service you didn’t let yourselves down you didn’t   let us down so thank you for having us more they  did very well sing was a busy service you know  

Obviously he was unfortunate so cut his finger  he was doing really well up to that point um   you know his presentation was good I think if he  hadn’t cut his finger he would have you know would  

Have done a good service I’m frustrated as Hal  actually but I’m not going to give up I’ve just   got to cook like a demon this afternoon Janet did  well she took took a few go to get it right but I  

Think she did you know she did a good job it was  extremely daunting all people want to do is eat   good food and I hope I gave it to him but I have  to say Colin was my real surprise I thought he was  

Very good a lot of orders coped really well was  very methodical in what he did I got the food out   I didn’t I don’t think I made any mistakes and  I’ve got a few blisters which I’m loving I was  

Very impressed with him he did a good job yeah  now they’re straight back to Master Chef HQ to   show how their experience has improved their own  cooking this next section is very important for me   and I need to really focus very hard because I’m  feeling slightly wobbly having cut my finger for  

Me this afternoon is about proving something to  John and Greg it’s about me putting those plates   down and then saying to me you listened yesterday  and you delivered a better thing I’d be lying if  

I said I didn’t want to make it through of course  I do yeah because I think I’ve got more to offer [Music] it’s your two courses one of you  is going to stay and two of you are going  

To go home we will give you 1 hour to cook  them in ladies and Gentlemen let’s [Music] cook after a disappointing first round  radio DJ Colin is hoping to show there’s   more to his cooking than open sandwiches  what are your two dishes today um my main  

Course is very Irish I know it from when  I was a kid it’s called Canon um and my   first course is poached egg on a on a PTO  Bella mushroom with a sauce and what do  

You think you got to do today if you want  to stay in the competition to be honest I   want to bring you up two courses and you go  that’s presented better brilliant Good Luck Colin Colin did have decent flavors yesterday  but his plates just looks awful if he can get  

Some presentation into those flavors I think it’  be fine ladies and gentlemen you have 30 minutes left family Cook Simon’s hoping to prove he  can Perfect The Rustic dishes that he loves to   prepare Simon you got some beautiful ingredients  on this bench what are you going to do with them  

Uh this is Walnut iard I’ve got couple of chicken  breasts which I’m going to cook in the iard with   mash anded beans so we’ seen that sort of generous  robust style from you again today I’m going robust  

Good and what about frilly bits on the side frilly  bits you’re not going to have any frilly bits I   admire his attempt to be robust but I wonder  if he’s got too many flavors going on there can   former blue Peter presenter Janet keep combining  adventurous flavors that work tell us what you’re  

Going to do it’s um pan cooked salmon with basil  and mint and then dle to follow what do you want   to show us today well the things I think I can  always take forward are um an ambitious sense  

Of the ingredients I use and something that makes  you think what else can you do we understand you   got technical skill but today you’re going to  prove to us you’re the cook that stays in the   competition I hope [Music] so Janet is adventurous  we’ve seen that we think she may have got lucky  

Yesterday with that salad it’s a luck about to run  out you have a minute 1 minute [Applause] [Music] ladies and gentlemen step away from  your benches please your time is [Music] up can Colin impress with both  flavor and presentation his main is a  

Portabella mushroom topped with poached egg  and gria cheese sauce followed by cod with   col Canan butter sauce and broccoli I don’t  like the idea of that gray muddy Brown thing   so that that’s just seeping out from the  mushroom is it yeah that’s the mushroom

Juice egg yolk slight lifted cheese  and that beefy mushroom I like it’s   all a little bit too walry because of the  liquid in the spinach and the liquid in the mushroom good flavor of egg Rich  still soft in the center it’s well  

Seasoned it’s well balanced it’s  a bit soggy though this is the C it’s interesting I I get the nice light  flavor of the Cod and I get that buttery   mash and and the crunch down on an onion it  needs a flavor punch from somewhere it looks  

Really robust and something you want to dive  into it’s a bit disappointing on on the pette the fish is beautifully cooked the spring onions  in there Taste of spray onions the cabbage is   tasting of cabbage and salour a potato and  I agree with Greg it needs an extra bit of

Seasoning Janet hopes The Adventurous flavor  combinations will work in her salmon with a   tomato and anvy sauce and beans Follow by a  fruit [Music] trifle that salmon is cooked   absolutely perfectly and it’s perfectly  seasoned I love the flavors of the tomato  

And the Basel and the beans together but  the flavors are so big you can’t taste the salmon I really like that sauce garlic pepper  metallic basil I really like that against   the beans I think that’s absolutely lovely  should we move on from fish to your trifle

All your flavors are completely  defined bananas and the berries   and the sweet wine and then the sweet  topping on top I think it’s a nice trifle sharp fruit sweet wine that is in those  biscuits is very very nice that topping needs  

To be much much firmer I’ll probably eat it  all [Laughter] though Simon has made chicken   breast with Walnut aard Mash green beans and  broccoli followed by a blueb and blackberry   cfti I know you want to be big I know you  want to be robust but this is bouldering on  

Scruffy yeah you’ve got a lot going on  and you’ve had like a scatter approach yeah you’ve got this sort of wonderful  almost meaty flavor from the walnuts but   yet earthy at the same time great texture it  just doesn’t need the veg because it’s so rich

Right I think your chicken’s a little bit dry I  think you’re taking it a little bit over but I   really enjoy that Walnut around the outside of  it I also really enjoy the sweet potato flavor   afterwards didn’t enjoy the broccoli with  it right away with the chicken in with the

Cfti it’s almost there but with too  much fruit in there what happens is   all the fruit explodes all the juice comes  out it breaks the batter down it becomes all soggy soft it’s warm it’s not sharp enough  with its flavor and I think that’s because  

You’ve added blueberry right okay difficult  decision to be made you guys sit outside we   sit there when we get you back in we’ll tell  you who’s going through off you go thank you three lovely Cooks here John all with their  own definitive style unusual very unusual I  

Think there’s an interesting thing with Colin  because he is definitely the novice of the   room but his journey so far has been incredible  it’s quite unbelievable how fast he has traveled   from a toasted sandwich onto actually doing some  decent food but he cooked his fish nicely great Co  

Cannon the mash with the Cabbage nice idea lacked  flavor if you’re going to do egg on mushroom with   a cheesy sauce it’s got to be superb and it was  okay I said I wanted comments about presentation  

But when they said it was too bland a taste I  knew exactly what they meant which Prov I’ve   learned a lot from working today in a restaurant  interesting Simon love the flavor of those walnuts   on these chicken but he had V strewn around the  place and when I say strewn around the place  

Exactly what he did awful looking dish there’s  no doubting at all that that Simon has got the   biggest repertoire in the room of what I would  call Classic dishes the idea of the chicken and   that Walnut crust and then the big gutsy French  classic cfti it shows somebody who does read who  

Is learned who does cook a lot for families what  I’ve learned in the past two days is invaluable   so of course I’d love to go through because  I want to keep on learning Janet came in here   yesterday and was technically very very good  but some another the salmon today disappeared  

Amongst the the strength of the sauce and the  beans and the anchovies Janet has the technical   ability but does that necessarily deliver food  you want to eat I don’t doubt that Janet Cooks   quite a bit I mean I thought that sauce that she  served up was lovely and the beans and the tomato  

Is really good idea and that that fish was was  cooked beautifully and trifle is a classic lovely   dish I mean you put trifle in front of everybody  everybody’s happy if that’s the food she wants to  

Do brilliant good honor I’d love to go through I  would nobody likes to be judged and I’m sure all   three of us secretly are fearing the worst and  hoping for the [Music] best thanks very much all  

Three of you really inspiring but we only take  one of you with us two of you are going [Music] home the celebrity cook going through to the next round is Janet congratulations done can’t I  take the mov no we’re out of here I’m done  

Oh thank [Music] you I’m sad because I was really  enjoying learning but I was determined to come in   and give it my best and I’m proud of having  done that I’m really happy with how the day  

Went I’ll miss not getting a chance to work  in that kitchen again but I leave here with a   better taste for cooking a better knowledge of  cooking and with increased passion I’m really   stunned genuinely I really didn’t expect to go  through I’m sure everybody says that you know  

It’s like Miss World moment oh my God but  I really didn’t I’m thrilled it’s fantastic   it’s really exciting I think I can go all the  way so yeah watch this [Music] face Janet and   Yan will be back for the quarterfinals  to battle against two other celebrity Cooks
