MasterChef
Into the kitchen and under the spotlight. Amateur cooks duel it out for the right to be called the MasterChef UK Champion. Initially named Masterchef Goes Large, the series changed its name to Masterchef in 2008.

The end of the Knockout Week sees the contenders whittled down to 10 amateur cooks - all of whom are desperate to reach the semi-final stage. In this edition they have just one challenge - to secure their place by winning over judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace with a showstopper dish prepared in just 90 minutes. Only nine will become semi-finalists, inching closer to being crowned the series champion of 2017. For one therefore, the MasterChef dream will be over
