NO MORE FUN AND GAMES AS CELEBRITY MASTERCHEF GETS DOWN TO THE LAST THREE CONTESTANTS
FROM the utter madness of Su Pollard’s creations to Joe Swash’s total chaos in the kitchen and Katie Price nearly flipping her food onto the ceiling, this has been a delicious series of celebrity mishaps.
It’s all got serious now however, as only three remain in the grand final, so larking about has been replaced by focus and fancy food.
After a week that has included elevating the humble pie, impressing a Chef ’s Table hosted by Tom Kerridge and putting their all into a personal dish, the cream of the crop are left.
Joe Swash, Kadeena Cox and Megan Mckenna have knocked out the competition and are all vying for the crown.
Only one challenge stands in their way. They have two hours to cook and present a faultless three-course meal for final judgement by John Torode and Gregg Wallace.
All of them have the eye of the tiger.
“It’s time to show everyone
I’m the real
deal,” says Megan, while Kadeena says she’s “ready and focused”.
Joe says he’s going for the treble – jungle champion, ice skating champion, Masterchef champion.
Megan, wearing her lucky socks, begins work on scallops, duck and a lemon tart.
Joe is making an onion and tomato tart, coq au vin and a strawberry meringue dessert.
Kadeena works on a seafood starter, with Caribbean goat curry pies and a choux pastry pud.
But it will all come down to John and Gregg’s taste buds in the end...
