Episode 5

It's the final in this brand new Champion of Champions competition. The four winners from the heats get behind their cooking stations for one final time, and at the end of the day one of them walks away a champion. Chicken, tarragon and grape salad takes on chicken, asparagus and pea risotto in the starter duel, and venison with an orange and juniper sauce takes on duck with vanilla mash. There is also a big surprise in store for our finalists: joining presenter Dave Lamb and Glynn Purnell at the dining table are the eight losers from the heats, who will not only be tasting the food but also scoring it, meaning that the finalists have to make a total of 12 plates of food. Only two champions can go through to the dessert finale where they face the ultimate technical challenge set by Glynn Purnell - and it will be down to the Michelin-starred chef to decide whose dessert outshone the other and take them to glory, becoming a champion of champions.

The Masked Singer

Part guessing game and part singing show, The Masked Singer sees 12 famous faces compete to pull off the best performance, with their identity elaborately and imaginatively concealed, thanks to an expert team of talented costume designers. The stars will be transformed and they will take on a masked identity and become a fantastic character which will disguise them for the whole series. 

Forget any thoughts of fancy dress – they'll be full-on, original, movie-standard creations taking inspiration from worlds as varied as manga, superheroes, and wild animals and mythical creatures. Their transformations will be total, even their speaking voices will be disguised in interviews. 

It will be up to a superstar panel to lead the viewers at home in their quest to discover who they are. Although the stars aren't judged on their voices, they'll still need to give their best performance – the audience's least favourite will be eliminated, before the panel try to guess their identity and unmask them.
