Many of us cannot get enough of cookery programmes and for many viewers MasterChef on BBC One is the king of them all! This cookery contest open to amateur cooks, sees contestants cook against each other and the clock each week in an attempt to impress top chef Michael Roux Jnr and presenters Gregg Wallace and John Torode.

Each week the contestants face new cookery challenges as one by one they are eliminated from the knock out contest. Expect moments of high emotion as soufflés collapse or the judges fail to enjoy a flavour combination and the contestant fails to go through to the next round.
