BBC One - Celebrity MasterChef, Series 11, Episode 3

Five more celebrities enter the MasterChef kitchen for the first time.

Cookery competition. Five more celebrities enter the MasterChef kitchen and undertake their first three culinary challenges.

The second heat week sees five more celebrities enter the MasterChef kitchen to undertake three tough culinary challenges in a bid to prove themselves to judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace. Battling for the crown are actor Laila Morse, former rugby world captain Neil Back, former member of 80's pop group The Communards Richard Coles, singer and songwriter Amelle Berrabah and Blue singer Simon Webbe.

The first challenge for the five hopefuls is the Mystery Box; the infamous test of imagination and creativity. They must use the given ingredients including king prawns, noodles, chilli and mango, as well as a larder, to create just one dish - sweet or savoury. With nerves running high and just 50 minutes to create something from scratch, the celebrities must think on their feet to impress the judges.

The celebrities are then split into two groups to take on the challenge of cooking for the first time in a restaurant kitchen, preparing dishes for paying customers. Richard and Amelle are sent to Asia De Cuba in the West End, while Laila, Neil and Simon head to Zebrano in the City of London. The celebrities in both kitchens soon learn that the pressure of a restaurant in full service has to be experienced to be believed.

In the final test of culinary creativity, it's back to the MasterChef headquarters. The contestants are asked to prepare a two-course menu of their own design in just one hour. 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.
