Great British Menu: Series 16: South West Judging

South West Judging

BBC Two - Great British Menu, Series 16, South West Judging

It’s judges’ day, and only one chef can go through to represent the south west of England.

Who will be judged the winner for the south west of England with innovative dishes inspired by the region’s inventions? The judges, including a modern-day madcap inventor, must decide.

Today, the two highest-scoring chefs from the south west of England go head to head in the last of the regional finals as they cook their six-course menus again. But will they take on board their veteran’s advice as they serve the panel of judges and this week’s guest judge, one of Britain’s most eccentric inventors?

The chefs need to impress the formidable judges - food writer Matthew Fort, restaurateur Oliver Peyton and broadcaster and food creative Rachel Khoo, as well as a guest judge. Today, this is Colin Furze, madcap inventor, YouTube star and holder of five Guinness World Records. Will he be able to sit still long enough to judge dishes celebrating British science and innovation, including dishes which celebrate Cornish safety invention, discoveries about outer space and notable luxury innovations from the south west of England such as sparkling wine and Concorde?

In one of the tightest and closest final showdowns of the series, the judges must decide.
