Ausstrahlung: Dez 17, 2014

Five talented chefs have cooked their way to a place in Final Week and the chance to take part in the amazing culinary adventures that lie ahead over the next three nights. The remaining chefs must battle against each other for the once in a lifetime opportunity to cook for 25 of their peers at the Chefs' Table. Only the four best finalists will get this chance, as after the opening cook-off the judges will send one more home. The judges begin by setting the five finalists an invention test with a difference - they must create one dish without any meat, fish or poultry. From a selection of fruit, vegetables, eggs, cheeses, grains, nuts, herbs and spices, they have an hour and 15 minutes to draw on their chefs repertoire and deliver a dish showcasing all their culinary talents. After tasting their dishes the judges send one of them home. Next the remaining four chefs face the ultimate challenge - they must cook at one of most prestigious culinary events in Britain, when 25 of the greatest chefs in the country descend on central London for a unique dinner. Each finalist is in charge of cooking 26 portions of one of the menu's four courses - starter, fish, main and dessert. Over five tense hours in the kitchen, they meticulously prepare every one of the elements that make up their ambitious dishes, under the watchful eyes of Marcus and Monica. With the diners holding an incredible 40 Michelin stars between them, the finalists' plates of food could make or break their careers, and their chances of winning the MasterChef title.
