The final heat begins, with contestants including singer and songwriter Kiki Dee.

Cookery competition. The contestants in the final heat must use the ingredients in the Mystery Box to create their own version of fish and chips.

The hunt for a champion continues as a final five celebrities begin the last of the heats. Trying to impress judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace are singer and songwriter Kiki Dee, adventurer and travel writer Charley Boorman, actor and director Jason Connery and actors Christopher Biggins and Tina Hobley.

The first challenge for the five hopefuls is the Mystery Box test; the infamous test of imagination and creativity. They all have to use the box's ingredients to create their own version of fish and chips. With nerves running high and just 50 minutes to make them from scratch, the celebrities must think on their feet to impress the judges.

With the first test over, there's no let-up as the celebrities face paying customers for the first time when they are sent to work during lunchtime service in two busy London restaurants. Kiki, Charley and Jason are sent to Lanes of London, where they face a real baptism of fire trying to keep up with orders in this busy contemporary Asian restaurant. Biggins and Tina are sent to Pont Street, where as well as trying to meet executive chef Sophie Michell's high standards, they also face technical problems with the equipment.

In the final test of culinary creativity,back to MasterChef headquarters as the contestants are asked to prepare a two-course menu of their own design in just one hour and 15 minutes. The celebrities work furiously in a last attempt to prove themselves to the judges, because at the end of this test one of them will be going home.
