Gordon Ramsay searches for the country's most exciting and innovative new food and drink business. He has hand-picked 12 of the UK's best up-and-coming food and drink entrepreneurs, who will compete to earn his investment – a whopping £150,000 of his own cash.

Tonight, Gordon invites his entrepreneurs to Glenapp Castle in Scotland, where he challenges them to create banquets celebrating his homeland. Can they meet Gordon's exacting standards?

Gordon meets his remaining contenders in Manchester. His first challenge for them is to cater a bottomless brunch hosted by some of the UK's best drag queens! How will the contenders cope as the orders come flooding in, with guests expecting a party atmosphere as well as top-notch food and cocktails?

Next, Gordon ramps up his demands to discover who knows the fitness food market. They'll need to master product development, marketing and design, then face a relentless Q&A from industry greats, including Olympic champion boxer Nicola Adams. Who will prove to be an all-rounder, and who will drop the ball?

Finally, it's the biggest test of all, as the contenders come face-to face with Gordon. Who will survive a one-on-one with the man himself, and who will he send home?
