With three contestants already through to the semi-finals, the best six remaining cooks go head to head to fight for their place alongside them. Judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace are joined by renowned chef Theo Randall, who sets the competitors a brief to create one outstanding dish inspired by Italian cuisine, with just 90 minutes to prep and cook it. Only five of the cooks will keep their place and join the other three semi-finalists.
