Alex Polizzi: Chefs on Trial

Episode 11: Amelies Heat 3

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Two Northern IrelandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Wales HD

Alex Polizzi takes on the difficult challenge of finding head chefs for restaurants that have a desperate need to fill a vacancy. Alex continues her mission at Amelies, a seafood restaurant in Cornwall whose owner has spent months looking unsuccessfully for someone to run her kitchen.

Two successful candidates have been selected. Now the next three candidates are put through the gruelling hands-on interview process.

This time, the candidates are faced with cooking fish in a wood-fired oven and all three chefs struggle with the heat and their timings. Portuguese fisherwoman Celia impresses with her cuttlefish stew but is her roasted octopus a step too far? Charming Frenchman Fabien fails to tell his sea bass from his sea bream but wows the judges with his main course. Robert proves to be cool in the kitchen but struggles to take criticism. There's only one place left in the final and the pressure is on. Show less
