Marcus Wareing, Monica Galetti and Gregg Wallace team up to search for the country's next culinary superstar. The first three chefs begin with a test set by Monica, who asks them to prepare a sauce maltaise asparagus and poached egg. The remaining three chefs must complete Marcus's skills test. They have 15 minutes to make a banoffee cheesecake with caramel bananas. In the second challenge, all six chefs have the chance to wow the judges with their signature dish. After this round, the three weakest chefs leave the competition.
