Episode 4 • Aug 07, 2013

This second heat week sees four more celebrities cross the threshold of the MasterChef kitchen, and in this episode they undertake three tough culinary challenges in a bid to prove themselves to judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace. Battling for the MasterChef crown are actor and comedian John Thomson, triple jumper Phillips Idowu, actress Denise Black and actor and musician Ade Edmondson. The first challenge for the four hopefuls is a mystery box test, the test of imagination and creativity in which the celebrities are presented with a range of ingredients. Here they come face-to-face with a crocodile - with nerves running high and just 50 minutes to cook their dish, the celebrities must think on their feet and create something snappy to impress the judges. There is no time for complacency, as the contestants face their second challenge for the day - the fearsome and celebrated palate test. John demonstrates to the viewers at home how to cook pappardelle with Indian spiced meatballs. Without seeing the demo the celebrities are given just a few minutes to taste this dish, before being asked to write down exactly what it is in it, using their sense of smell, and palate. Then they are asked to recreate John's dish in just 50 minutes - without a recipe, using skill and palate alone. Finally they leave the relative safety of the MasterChef kitchen as they are thrown into the stressful world of mass catering. Working in pairs, with over 120 hungry students to feed at Kingston University, the celebrities will have to be on top of their game if they want to succeed. With ingredients including minced beef, chicken breast, pasta and a range of fruit and vegetables, the teams must prepare meat-based, vegetarian and dessert dishes that will satisfy the starving students. In the heat of the kitchen the celebrities need to rely on their teamwork skills just as much as their culinary ones to triumph.

The second batch of contestants face elimination day, with one celebrity cooking their final dishes for judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace. The celebrities take on their first challenge within a real restaurant setting, preparing dishes for paying customers as they are sent in pairs to two London kitchens. Ade Edmondson and Phillips Idowu are sent to modern British restaurant The Swan, whilst Denise Black and John Thomson have to master the exacting standards of the contemporary Italian restaurant L'Anima. The celebrities in both kitchens soon learn that the pressure of a restaurant in full service has to be experienced to be believed. Then it's back to MasterChef headquarters as the celebs stay in their pairs and have to work as a team to create one main course and one dessert in one hour. They have a range of ingredients to choose from including guinea fowl, chestnuts and a pumpkin. For one team culinary harmony is reached very easily, but on the other side of the MasterChef kitchen battle lines are drawn and all hell breaks out. In a final test to ensure they cement their place in the competition, the contestants are asked to prepare one dish of their own design in just one hour. Drawing inspiration from their own backgrounds and relationships with food, the celebrities work furiously in a last attempt to prove themselves to the judges. The pressure is on in the Celebrity MasterChef kitchen, and at the end of the episode one celebrity will be going home.

The celebrity cooking competition continues with the second quarter-final, as the battle for a place in the final eight reaches its climax. The remaining contestants must cook a faultless two-course meal, judged not only by John and Gregg but also by two past Celebrity MasterChef champions in the shape of former England rugby captain Phil Vickery, who won in 2011, and reigning champion Emma Kennedy. They are also joined by 2010 finalist Christine Hamilton; all three know exactly what standards to expect. With their last chances to impress their way to the next round, emotions in the kitchen are running high and the pressure proves too much for some contestants. The celebrity guest judges deliver some frank and cutting responses to some dishes, but others fare much better in the firing line. Only the best can go through to the final eight and become a step closer to winning the title of Celebrity MasterChef 2013. For those who don't make the grade, the journey ends here.
