The two highest-scoring chefs from Wales must go head-to-head and cook their six-course menus again.

They need to impress a panel of exacting judges: Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge, former Great British Menu Champion of Champions Lorna McNee, and comedian and food podcaster Ed Gamble. The guest judge is singer, songwriter, author and broadcaster Cerys Matthews. How will she judge dishes celebrating great Britons of the past?

Only one of the chefs will triumph and go through to represent Wales at the national finals.

The three talented chefs from central and eastern England are halfway through their heat, and the pressure is mounting. Once again, they each serve a unique take on the brief celebrating great Britons of the past for a banquet at historic Blenheim Palace.

The dishes are judged by Tommy Banks and include an evolutionary pork dish inspired by Charles Darwin and a rum-soaked savarin cake inspired by Admiral Nelson. But who will be leaving the competition?
