It’s all on the line as the semi-finals come to an end. The fabulous five now have one shot of making the ultimate leap into Finals Week. Turn it on now, or risk missing out on what might just be one of the most exhilarating weeks of their life.\n\nThe last 20 years have seen vast numbers of inspirational cooks enter the MasterChef arena, and John and Gregg would like one plate of food inspired by one of those exceptional cooks. Can the semi-finalists enhance a dish which rocketed a former contestant to glory? The dishes have been inspired by 2011 winner Tim Anderson’s Asian flavours, 2023 finalist Omar Foster’s risky combinations, and some Mexican spice inspired by the first ever MasterChef champion, Thomasina Miers.\n\nAt the end, just four will remain standing. Expect a mixture of fireworks and tears as the battle to become MasterChef champion 2024 reaches fever pitch.
