Series 1: Episode 6

Claudia Winkleman presents the series looking for Britain's best home cook. It is week six, and Mary Berry, Dan Doherty and Chris Bavin test the remaining five home cooks on their finest dishes. The cooks have two and a half hours to prepare their ultimate sharing feast, which must contain at least four dishes designed to showcase their individual personality. The cooks are up against it as they try to impress the judges with the complementary dishes that must come together as a complete meal. \n\nIt is then time for the cooks' challenge, which tests their inventiveness and creativity with a key ingredient. The cooks with the best sharing feast from challenge one are given the advantage by the judges as they determine the key ingredient in the next round, choosing between squid and mackerel. To make it harder they have to decide without any prior knowledge of the other ingredients they'll have in their kitchens. The cooks must then invent one dish celebrating the central ingredient and have one hour to win over the trio of judges and avoid the elimination round.\n\nBased on their performances in these two challenges, the judges decide who is safely through to next week and who must cook again. The judges have chosen a classic chicken dish that requires precision, care and skill to execute correctly. At the end, one more cook must leave the group, with just four fighting on for the title of Britain's best home cook.
