Today, the two remaining chefs from the north west cook their dishes head to head for a panel of expert judges, in a bid to secure themselves a place in the national finals. Will they have acted on the advice given by the veteran judge earlier in the week, and learn from their mistakes?

The chefs need to impress a panel of formidable judges: food writer Matthew Fort, restaurateur Oliver Peyton and broadcaster and cook Andi Oliver, along with a guest judge - one of the pop stars the banquet will celebrate. Today they are joined by multi-million selling singer-songwriter Amy MacDonald.

The chefs cook their mains and desserts. Lorna is confident her lamb dish With A Little Help From My Friends, dedicated to supportive friends, is a dish fit for the banquet.
