Episode 16

Eight contestants who didn't quite make the grade last year attempt to qualify for the quarter-finals, before competing for the last remaining place in the semi-finals.

John Torode and Gregg Wallace continue their search for the country's best amateur cook.

It's comeback week and eight contestants who didn't quite make the grade last year face four high-pressure tests to see who has improved in the past twelve months and now has the passion, the skill, the palate and the creativity to make it to the quarter finals. They also have to once again face the pressure of a professional kitchen at top London restaurant Asia de Cuba.

The best of the cooks then go head to head with the previous heat winner as they battle for the one remaining place in the semi-finals, taking them one step closer to becoming the next MasterChef.
