Celebrity MasterChef is back on 大象传媒 One for its 18th series as the who鈥檚 who of music, comedy, drama and show business battle it out to become 2023 Champion.

Across six weeks, judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace will put their taste buds through a sensory assault course as they discover which celebrities have the palate and skill to chop, slice and sizzle their way to the iconic trophy.

It鈥檚 the start of the Celebrity MasterChef heats, and this week, the first five celebrities up for the culinary challenge are broadcaster and reality star Dani Dyer, actor James Buckley, comedian and actor Marcus Brigstocke, TV personality Mica Ven and TV and radio personality Richie Anderson.

The first challenge for the five hopefuls is Under the Cloche. In front of each celebrity is a cloche, each concealing a different ingredient. With access to a larder, the celebrities must create one plate of food showcasing their ingredient. With tensions running high and just over an hour to create their dish from scratch, the contestants must think on their feet to impress the judges.

In the final test of culinary creativity, the celebrities are asked to prepare their dinner party dishes in just one hour and fifteen minutes. The celebrities work furiously in a final attempt to prove themselves to John and Gregg. At the end of this test, one of them will be going home.

Who can handle the pressure and show the judges they have the skills, creativity and flair to progress in the competition?
