Eight more hopefuls try to prove themselves. On offer in the MasterChef market are chicken wings, quail, pancetta, brown shrimp, salmon and haddock.

Eight more hopefuls try to prove to judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace that they have the potential to be the 2017 MasterChef Champion.

On offer in the MasterChef market are chicken wings, quail, pancetta, brown shrimp, salmon and haddock. The cooks have one hour and twenty minutes to dazzle the judges and prove they are good enough to stay in the competition. After tasting all eight dishes, John and Gregg decide which five cooks are good enough to stay, while three are sent home.

The five remaining cooks now have to cook two courses that will excite not just John and Gregg but also 2013 finalists Saira Hamilton and Larkin Cen and champion Natalie Coleman.

After the five hopefuls have cooked, John and Gregg decide which three deserve to go through to the quarter-final.
