Too Many Cooks

Day two of the competition. After two years of illness, trained chef Sharron is on the mend. To celebrate, she's throwing a party for family and friends. But the competing cooks are challenged by the strictly dairy, wheat and gluten-free brief. Jim and Muriel gamble with unusual dishes and ingredients and there's an alarming moment for Chris and Alice when things get hot and smoky in the kitchen.

In the third episode of the week's competition, Sally and Ian are celebrating their third wedding anniversary with a Mexican inspired party. The cooks must serve up food that fits the theme but, under pressure, both Jim and Karren end up burning things and time runs away yet again for Chris and Alice.

In the fourth episode of the week, teacher Siobhan is throwing a party for her colleagues to mark the start of a new term. It's a tough brief - the competing cooks must serve school dinners inspired dishes with a modern twist. The oven gloves are off as Alice and Karren go head to head with their mum's pudding recipes.

It's the final day of the competition - so which of three couples will walk off with this week's cash prize? Les and Julie are celebrating their return home from the Far East and want hearty British dishes from the cooks. Jim and Muriel are determined to impress with unusual flavour combinations and stressy Alice has put Chris in charge for the day. There's lots of flapping, plenty of panic and frank feedback before the winners of the week are revealed.
