MasterChef 2024 has reached the final week of heats, and this time there's a twist. To celebrate the 20th anniversary, ten familiar faces have been invited back to battle for the title for the second time in Comeback Week. They will face two challenges specially designed to see just how much they have progressed since their last visit. This is an opportunity that none of them will want to waste, as only the best six will earn a place in the last quarter-final. The first five re-enter the MasterChef arena hoping to redeem themselves. It won’t be an easy ride, as John and Gregg want to see how far they have come by way of their two best plates. Each dish will need to demonstrate top-notch execution and exquisite flavours. The comeback crew include a fire-breathing circus performer and a DJ, so creativity and performance from the group should get off to a flying start. All five will need to keep their wits about them as they head straight into their next task, and this time it’s all about the classics – think beef bourguignon, a roast dinner or even fish and chips. They will need to produce one dish based on a classic of any origin that captures its essence and demonstrates why it is so loved. Can the competitors turn the traditional up a notch, or will they push things too far? Joining the judges will be one of the country’s most exciting cookery talents and a past MasterChef: The Professionals finalist – Matthew Ryle. Matthew is not only trained in the classics, but is now executive chef at Maison François in London, where he delivers a menu that celebrates classic cookery at the highest level. He’s also taken his cookery prowess online and has achieved a following of over 1.6 million. The comeback contestants will need to pull out all the stops if they want to live up to Matthew’s expectations. With every morsel scrutinised, the final decision will be left to John and Gregg, who will pick their best three cooks of the night. They will head into this week’s quarter-final, while the other two will experience déjà vu and say goodbye.

Five more comeback contestants return to the competition to try their luck again. A quarter-final place awaits those who outperform the others across two tough challenges. The first request from John and Gregg is for two outstanding plates of food – a main course and dessert that prove they have learnt from past mistakes. Some might be brave enough to recreate recipes from their past attempt. They will have one hour and 45 minutes to get creative and nail the brief. Nobody will head home after this round, but the judges won’t forget dishes that leave a bad taste in their mouth. Next up, the comeback crew must show drive as they each design a dish they would serve from a food truck. It will need to be a street food gem to set socials alight and leave people queuing for more. This food style is right up the street of the guest taster – MasterChef: The Professionals 2019 champion, Stuart Deeley. Stuart’s food is a celebration of what he likes to eat, so he’ll be expecting to see real personality in the contestant's creations. Will they deliver a trucking treat that will tickle the taste buds? Or will their truck be towed back home? It's then crunch time, and the three who have impressed the most can celebrate with a place in the last quarter-final, with their dream of becoming MasterChef champion 2024 still very much alive.

It’s all to play for as this week’s six best comeback contestants return for the last quarter-final and the chance to push on into Knockout Week. Just one challenge awaits, so the hopefuls will need to go big or risk going home. Success won’t be easy as the judges have invited renowned restaurant critic Jimi Famurewa to set the brief, which is all about fusion. The super six will need to create one dish that brings two unrelated food cultures and cuisines onto one plate in perfect harmony. Fusion is incredibly risky business, but done well, it can result in some of the most thrilling food imaginable. With limited places left in Knockout Week, the three whose fusions fail to make their mark will lose out on a place, leaving the best remaining cooks to take on next-level cooking as the hunt for this year’s MasterChef champion continues.
