The cookery competition continues with the first quarter-final of the series. The six heat winners have no time to rest on their laurels as they continue to fight for their place in the competition.

The week's best amateurs will be put through the mill with a seriously daunting test set by one of the country's toughest food critics. Their brief has been set by Tracey MacLeod. Her challenge is for the amateur cooks to make an exceptional dish centred on one ingredient - cheese.

After cooking their dish based on this brief, the contestants must stand before Tracey MacLeod and John and Gregg, and hear face to face what they think of their dish and how well they have kept to the brief.

At the end of this quarter-final, the best cooks go through to knockout week, taking another step closer to being crowned MasterChef champion 2016.
