Series 18: 5. South West England: Mains and Dessert
The three chefs are halfway through their heat, and the pressure is mounting. Once again, they each serve their unique take on the brief celebrating British animation and illustration, inspired by Paddington’s 65th birthday.\n\nFor mains, one chef is taking inspiration from Quentin Blake’s unmistakable drawings, while another presents a tomahawk steak inspired by the Aardman film Early Man. There's also a dish of pork loin, pigs’ cheeks and pommes souffles based on an episode of Mr Benn.\n\nFor dessert, one dish celebrates a slightly overweight dog in the familiar cartoons Creature Comforts, while another champions Banksy's famous Balloon Girl image. The last chef takes the idea for their dish from Peter Rabbit with a milk panna cotta, brown bread ice cream and blackberries served in a family heirloom.\n\nOnly two will proceed to cook for the judges and have a chance to represent south west England at the regional finals.
