The four remaining contestants face two more culinary challenges, as they compete to secure a place in the semi-finals. First, the celebrities are split into two teams of two, and each team is tasked with cooking the same dish, which must be identical in both appearance and flavour. For the second challenge, the competitors are then sent out on their first mass catering challenge, taking place at the Ford factory in Dagenham, Essex.

The battle for a semi-final place reaches its climax as the four celebrities are tasked to cook a faultless two-course meal that will not only be judged by John Torode and Gregg Wallace but also by last year's finalists Martin Bayfield and Spencer Matthews and champion John Partridge. Only the best two contestants can come one step closer to winning the title of Celebrity MasterChef 2019. For those who don't make the grade, the journey ends here.

TV and radio presenter Rickie Haywood-Williams, legendary Motown singer Martha Reeves, Olympic gold medal-winning long jumper Greg Rutherford, actress Elizabeth Bourgine and heavyweight boxer Dillian Whyte take part, as the competition hosted by John Torode and Gregg Wallace continues. The first challenge for the five hopefuls is an Invention Test - the infamous test of imagination and creativity. The contestants are all given a mincer and a burger press and are tasked with making just one dish - a burger and fries - of their own design. Ingredients to choose from include tuna, mackerel, beef chuck, pork belly, lamb shoulder and turkey breast.
