It is a hot kitchen and the chefs are tempering chocolate and working with sugar.

Creative culinary competition. The chefs are tempering chocolate and working with sugar. One chef is heading for disaster after his cream splits.

In this year's Great British Menu, the chefs are competing to cook at the ultimate banquet held at the Palace of Westminster. In the year of the Queen's 90th birthday, the chefs are celebrating the everyday great Britons who have been honoured for their extraordinary achievements. The challenge is to create dishes that are a fitting legacy to the modern Elizabethan age, creating food that represents the complete transformation in British cuisine during the Queen's reign.

The three chefs from Northern Ireland are cooking their desserts and one chef is on course for an historic score. He could beat his boss - a veteran of GBM - and achieve more marks than anyone has done throughout the history of the competition. But it is a hot kitchen and the chefs are tempering chocolate and working with sugar. One chef is heading for disaster after his cream splits and he loses valuable time.

There is so much at stake, but the chefs have to pull off a perfect dessert dish if they are going to win a chance to cook for the judges.

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

BBC Two is a lively channel of depth and substance, carrying a range of knowledge-building programming complemented by great drama, comedy and arts.
