MasterChef is a globally successful format that undertakes a nationwide search to find the country's best amateur chef, whose talent and passion could transform his or her life.
Thousands of people audition for the MasterChef judges, but only the top 50 take part in the auditions. Here, their culinary skills will be pushed to the limit as only half of them will earn a place in the MasterChef kitchen.
It's a life-changing journey for many, but only one will be crowned the nation's MasterChef.
