Episode 3

Cookery contest. Linda Lusardi, Nick Pickard, Michelle Mone and Darren Campbell face their first elimination day as they are asked to cook one of John Torode's classic recipes.

It is elimination day on Celebrity MasterChef and one of the celebrities will be cooking their final dishes for judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace.

Actress and former model Linda Lusardi, entrepreneur Michelle Mone, Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard and former Olympic champion Darren Campbell are first challenged to cook one of John Torode's classic recipes: saddle of rabbit with kidneys, wrapped in pancetta and served with soft polenta and black cabbage. Emotions run high as the celebrities reflect on the task and John and Gregg deliver their verdicts.

In a final test of culinary creativity, the contestants are asked to prepare their own two-course meals. Drawing inspiration from their own backgrounds and relationships with food, the celebrities work furiously in a last attempt to prove themselves to the judges. The pressure is on in the Celebrity MasterChef kitchen and at the end of the episode one celebrity will be going home.
