These discerning individuals will be treated to five identical plates of each course prepared by our finalists, making this final showdown truly remarkable.

As tensions mount in the kitchen, viewers can expect moments of triumphs as well as potential disappointments. Ultimately, Poppy O’Toole and Big Has will have the arduous task of selecting the winner who has shown themselves to be a cut above the rest.
