2017's dessert banquet champion Selin is putting her own unique twist on tea and toast.

Creative culinary competition. It is the last chance for the chefs to secure a place cooking for the judges. Selin puts a twist on tea and toast.

Great British Menu is back, and this time the nation's top professional chefs are competing for a chance to cook 'A Feast to Say Thank You' at a glorious banquet celebrating 70 years of the NHS, one of Britain's most prized institutions. Across eight regional heats, 24 chefs compete in the toughest competition of their lives as they attempt to dazzle with their culinary skills, serving up outstanding dishes that honour the incredible work of the heroic NHS staff and give them a gastronomic experience they will never forget. In each regional heat, they first have to impress one of the surprise veteran judges whose identity won't be revealed until they walk through the door. The two highest-scoring chefs then face our exacting panel of judges - Oliver Peyton, Matthew Fort and Andi Oliver.

This week it is the turn of three chefs from London and south east England. 2017's banquet champion Selin Kiazim, a rising star of the London scene renowned for her Turkish Cypriot fusion flavours, is back hoping to join the elite group of chefs who have made it to the banquet twice. She is up against James Cochran, who has worked at some of London's toughest kitchens, including two Michelin-starred The Ledbury, and Scott Goss from The Twenty Six in Tunbridge Wells, renowned for his use of local Kent ingredients.

It is the last chance for the chefs to secure a place cooking for the judges and the pressure in the kitchen is rising as they attempt their technical desserts. 2017's dessert banquet champion Selin puts her own unique twist on tea and toast. James creates a decadent coconut parfait accompanied by mango puree-filled doughnuts for his dessert 'Tree of Life' inspired by the coconut palm tree, the NHS and both of their contributions to the public's health. Meanwhile, Scott hopes his elevated gypsy tart 'Honey Bee Good' will secure him a place in the final. With only the two highest scorers going through to tomorrow's regional final, who will be sent home?
