Who will attempt the terrifying climb, and will anyone create five-star patisserie and make the grade?
Next, Gordon asks the teams to create bottled sauces in Gateshead.

And will anyone convince Sauce Shop enough to launch their brand as a special edition?
Finally, the contenders come face to face with Gordon to convince him they should stay. Someone has to leave, so who will Gordon send packing?

With his reputation on the line and paying diners expecting immaculate food and service, will the contenders live up to Gordon's extraordinarily high standards? Or will they crumble under the heat of the kitchen?
Finally, it's crunch time as the contenders come face-to face with Gordon. With nowhere to hide, who will make the grade, and who'll be sent home?

Next, it's still all about visuals, as Gordon tasks the teams with creating a recipe to appear on the front page of Waitrose's in-house magazine.
