Dinner for Duncan
Having worked at Raymond Blanc's Michelin-starred restaurant since 2009, The Restaurant contestants James Knight Pacheco and Alasdair Hooper now test their skills as event caterers. Their first client couldn't be a bigger challenge: Duncan Bannatyne wants a dinner party for eight friends and neighbours, and he wants it at his villa in the south of France. Without language skills or local knowledge, can chef James and front-of-house Ali deliver Duncan a night to remember?
The Shooting Party
The pair have spent nine months training under Raymond Blanc - now they are ready to step out of the professional kitchen into the real world. This time they are joining the country set, catering for a family throwing a shooting party for friends on their country estate.

Can they deliver a regimental dinner to remember?
The Boat
