It is the last chance for the chefs to get their dish in contention for the final.

Top chefs compete to cook at a banquet marking the 70th anniversary of D-Day. It is the last chance for the chefs to get their dish in contention for the final.

It's finals week on Great British Menu as the victorious regional chefs do battle for a place on the banquet menu. The winners will cook their dishes at a sumptuous meal for WWII heroes commemorating 70 years since the D-Day landings at St Paul's Cathedral, a bastion of British wartime resilience.

Each day, the chefs must cook one of their four courses again to impress not only the judges Matthew Fort, Oliver Peyton and Prue Leith but also a banquet guest of honour who has memories of the war, as well as their fellow chefs who will also be marking the dishes. 

The top three scoring creations will be placed on that courses' shortlist and be in contention for the banquet. The final menu will be chosen by the judges from the dishes on the shortlists, so to be in with a chance of cooking at St Paul's the chefs have to secure a place in the top three. 

It's the last chance for the chefs to get their dish in contention for the final banquet and those who've failed to finish in the top three so far are going all out. Joining the judges is Celia Sandys, Winston Churchill's granddaughter who was born during the war and who helped judge the Northern Ireland heats. The chefs are shocked by some bad news when they arrive but it's soon into the kitchen to get cooking.

When the dessert result is in it's down to the judges to pick the perfect menu from all four courses' shortlists. Which chef will triumph to cook the starter, fish, main and dessert at the D-Day banquet?
