This season, contestants compete in teams in the ultimate David vs Goliath battle. In the first challenge, they must cook a dish which recognises their strengths.

The two teams must use the MasterChef food pyramid as their pantry - with different layers for fruits, grains, proteins, and sweets.

On day two, the room is set up for a massive service challenge. One team are at a clear advantage, with most of them well-versed in operating in commercial kitchens.

The contestants have a good old-fashioned lucky dip, where each row of cloches has a different theme - fruit & vegetables, herbs & spices, pantry items, and a curve cloche.

Switching things up, all the remaining contestants must now cook for themselves in order to stay in the competition. The maker of the best dish will win both a cash prize and a game-changing immunity pin.

The winning team in the previous relay challenge joins the top-two mystery box winners for a chance at immunity as they try to take on MasterChef favourite, Matt Stone.
