Episode 8

The celebrities are set a culinary challenge by Asma Khan, owner and head chef of the critically acclaimed Darjeeling Express restaurant in London.

This week鈥檚 heats continue with the four remaining celebrities facing three more culinary challenges as they battle for a place in the quarter-final.

Tonight鈥檚 first challenge is a Knowledge and Skills Test, where the celebrities have the terrifying task of facing judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace one on one. They will attempt to demonstrate their ability when being asked to make Crepe Suzette, in just 20 minutes.

Next, the celebrities are pushed even further to their limits. Up until this point they have been cooking food as they would at home, but to help them elevate it and show them what restaurant standard cooking is all about, John and Gregg have invited in a professional chef. Originally from Calcutta, owner and head chef of the critically acclaimed Darjeeling Express in Central London, Asma Khan challenges each of the four celebrities to cook one of her recipes.

Then it鈥檚 crunch time as there鈥檚 just one more chance for the four celebrities to earn themselves a place in the quarter-final. Their brief to stay in the competition - to cook John and Gregg brunch. With just one hour to cook, and only three quarter-final places up for grabs, the celebrities give it their all in a final attempt to prove themselves to the judges. At the end of this test, one of them will be going home.
