It's the second week of heats, and seven more hopefuls need to pull out all the stops to impress judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace.

It's the second week of heats, and seven more hopefuls need to pull out all the stops to prove to judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace that they have the potential to become MasterChef 2018 champion.

This year sees the return of the MasterChef Market, stocked full of the best-quality produce from across the world, including meat, fish, fruit, vegetables, nuts, pulses, grains and dairy. The challenge is to invent and then cook one dish using anything from the market. This time, the featured ingredients include venison, chicken, parma ham, sea bream and pollock. The contestants have an hour and ten minutes to dazzle the judges and prove they are good enough to stay in the competition. After tasting all seven dishes, John and Gregg decide which four cooks are good enough to stay, while three are sent home.

The four remaining cooks now have one more challenge standing between them and a quarter-final place. They must cook two courses that will excite not just John and Gregg, but also some very special guests - 2015's MasterChef finalists Tony Rodd and Emma Spitzer and champion Simon Wood.

After the four hopefuls have cooked, John and Gregg decide which three contestants deserve to take the next step in the competition and go through to the quarter-final.
