Finals Week continues as the four remaining cooks battle for the title. They must draw on everything they have learned over the past few weeks and cook to the very highest of standards if they are to impress judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace.
For a place in the final three, they must produce a theatrical, showstopping dish. They need to put on quite the show to prove their worth, and no-one can afford to slip up, as at the end of this challenge, one contestant will be eliminated.
Then, the penultimate challenge for the final three is the toughest and most daunting yet, the Chef's Table. This year it will be hosted by legendary Italian chef Giorgio Locatelli at his Mayfair restaurant, Locanda Locatelli. The finalists must deliver food of an exceptional standard to impress four pioneers of Italian cuisine in the UK – Francesco Mazzei (Sartoria), Jacob Kenedy (Bocca Di Lupo), Masha Rener (Lina Stores) and Theo Randall (Theo Randall at The Intercontinental). As they struggle to master Giorgio's dishes, will they hold their nerve, or is the pressure to deliver too intense?
