It is finals week and victorious regional chefs must cook their fish course for the judges

Top chefs compete to cook at a banquet marking the 70th anniversary of D-Day. It is finals week and victorious regional chefs must cook their fish course for the judges.

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. 

In this episode it's the fish course and those chefs who didn't make it onto the shortlist with their starters are hoping to do better. The judges are joined by Ken Sturdy who landed on Sword Beach on D-Day and who helped judge the North West region. Who will be in with a chance of cooking their fish course at the banquet?

Knowledge, drama, comedy and the arts for a broad adult audience.
