Six ambitious chefs enter the MasterChef kitchen ready to prove they have what it takes to succeed in the competition. Across two demanding challenges, they’ll need to demonstrate their skills.
The remaining five chefs return to the kitchen for two demanding challenges that will push their skills, creativity and ambition to the limit as they battle for a place in the quarter-final.
It’s the first quarter-final, and the four chefs who have fought their way through the heats return to the kitchen with everything to play for.
