“Great British Menu” is back for its 20th season, and the culinary competition is as fierce as ever. This week, four talented chefs battle it out for the chance to represent London and South East England at a grand banquet celebrating great Britons of the past, held at the magnificent Blenheim Palace.

Tuesday’s episode sees the chefs creating canapés, starters, and fish courses inspired by British icons. With former fish course champion Tom Aikens casting a discerning eye over their creations, the pressure is on. The menu descriptions alone are enough to make your mouth water: imagine a watermelon sashimi dish in honor of Emily Davison or a delicate sole veronique with potatoes en papillotte.
