1
00:00:03,754 --> 00:00:05,698
I don't have enough time!
2
00:00:05,723 --> 00:00:08,089
It's so nerve—wracking.
3
00:00:08,114 --> 00:00:09,698
Did you burn it?
Dead!
4
00:00:11,244 --> 00:00:13,648
EMMA: 'Leaving the competition...
Anton.'
5
00:00:13,673 --> 00:00:17,339
I've loved every second of it.
6
00:00:17,364 --> 00:00:19,528
We're in the semi-finals.
Go big or go home.
7
00:00:19,553 --> 00:00:22,219
# You can be cool, you can be shy
8
00:00:22,244 --> 00:00:24,729
# Say what you want,
Say what you like
9
00:00:24,754 --> 00:00:26,778
# Cos your body talks... #
10
00:00:26,803 --> 00:00:28,979
You are cooking for a place
in the final.
11
00:00:29,004 --> 00:00:31,369
Oh, God! Building sandcastles
is not my forte.
12
00:00:31,394 --> 00:00:33,339
Just in panic mode.
13
00:00:33,364 --> 00:00:36,139
This is what I want to see
in a semi-final.
14
00:00:36,164 --> 00:00:37,859
That is a triumph.
15
00:00:37,884 --> 00:00:39,809
# Ooh, your body talks. #
16
00:00:39,834 --> 00:00:41,619
Here we go.
GONG CLASHES
17
00:00:41,644 --> 00:00:43,619
I'm in hell.
I am stressed!
18
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:46,528
Panic is starting to set in.
Time to up the game.
19
00:00:46,553 --> 00:00:48,809
Yes, Josie!
20
00:00:48,834 --> 00:00:51,369
We're getting so competitive now.
21
00:00:51,394 --> 00:00:54,259
I'll never ever take on
a dish this hard again.
22
00:00:54,284 --> 00:00:56,249
APPLAUSE
23
00:01:06,364 --> 00:01:08,339
Welcome to Cooking With The Stars.
24
00:01:08,364 --> 00:01:13,139
Tonight the ultimate showbiz food
fight could boil over completely
25
00:01:13,164 --> 00:01:15,339
as our celebrities battle
for a place
26
00:01:15,364 --> 00:01:17,289
in next week's grand final.
Oh, yes.
27
00:01:17,314 --> 00:01:18,729
They'll have to be fully focused
28
00:01:18,754 --> 00:01:21,289
on their most
nerve—wracking night yet,
29
00:01:21,314 --> 00:01:24,419
and sadly, one person
will leave the competition.
30
00:01:24,444 --> 00:01:26,859
This week our stars
are taking us to Thailand.
31
00:01:26,884 --> 00:01:29,809
Oh, great!
Not literally, Tom.
32
00:01:29,834 --> 00:01:31,419
LAUGHTER
33
00:01:31,444 --> 00:01:33,619
So let's get going
with our first battle of the night,
34
00:01:33,644 --> 00:01:37,809
but whose Thai will be terrific
and who will just satay away?
35
00:01:37,834 --> 00:01:40,528
It's Josie versus joe.
36
00:01:40,553 --> 00:01:42,169
APPLAUSE
37
00:01:45,603 --> 00:01:50,984
French Week, I got too cocky.
I got too confident.
38
00:01:51,009 --> 00:01:53,271
A little bit of champagne.
39
00:01:53,296 --> 00:01:56,991
But next week is my time to shine
cos I've been to Thailand twice.
40
00:01:58,146 --> 00:01:59,680
Tony Singh!
41
00:01:59,705 --> 00:02:02,430
Smashed the French Week.
Semi-final.
42
00:02:02,455 --> 00:02:05,071
So yeah, we're going to do Thai.
I know you like your Thai food.
43
00:02:05,096 --> 00:02:07,961
I love Thai food.
All the flavours just...
44
00:02:07,986 --> 00:02:10,151
Ooh! They make love
to your taste buds,
45
00:02:10,176 --> 00:02:11,841
so I'm really happy
about Thai Week.
46
00:02:11,866 --> 00:02:14,871
We've got a fantastic dish
of salt-baked Thai fish
47
00:02:14,896 --> 00:02:17,601
with a sticky aubergine curry,
jasmine rice
48
00:02:17,626 --> 00:02:20,041
and then a hot dipping sauce.
49
00:02:20,066 --> 00:02:23,241
The fish is gonna be wrapped
in banana leaves with lemongrass,
50
00:02:23,266 --> 00:02:25,911
ginger and garlic in between that'll
perfume the flesh of the fish.
51
00:02:25,936 --> 00:02:27,560
Oh, not too much then, Tone!
52
00:02:27,585 --> 00:02:31,961
This dish is my most technical dish
so far.
53
00:02:31,986 --> 00:02:34,151
The dish is complex, challenging,
54
00:02:34,176 --> 00:02:36,481
because we are baking
the fish in a spice salt crust.
55
00:02:36,506 --> 00:02:38,961
So you've got a bit
that's not insulated by the salt.
56
00:02:38,986 --> 00:02:40,601
It could overcook and dry out.
57
00:02:40,626 --> 00:02:43,680
I've got to make sure
there is no cracks in that crust.
58
00:02:43,705 --> 00:02:46,481
If I don't,
I've got a dry fish on my hands.
59
00:02:46,506 --> 00:02:49,121
If she overcooks it
or under cooks it,
60
00:02:49,146 --> 00:02:51,401
she won't know until the judges
get in front of them.
61
00:02:51,426 --> 00:02:53,711
Surprise!
Surprise!
62
00:02:53,736 --> 00:02:55,601
The fish on his own is one dish.
63
00:02:55,626 --> 00:02:58,841
We got four dishes going on here,
so there's a lot to take on.
64
00:02:58,866 --> 00:03:02,151
All you need to do
is perfect the crust...
65
00:03:02,176 --> 00:03:04,271
And we got a winning dish here.
66
00:03:05,816 --> 00:03:09,041
The judges said that
my French dish was too simple.
67
00:03:09,066 --> 00:03:11,961
You got Judy in to roll the dough,
which is all the skill.
68
00:03:11,986 --> 00:03:13,321
I think you could have done more.
69
00:03:13,346 --> 00:03:16,560
The person I'd like to face
the Cook Off is Joe.
70
00:03:16,585 --> 00:03:18,321
§0e_
he.
71
00:03:18,346 --> 00:03:19,871
Ha
72
00:03:19,896 --> 00:03:21,481
I just didn't want to do
the Cook Off.
73
00:03:21,506 --> 00:03:23,880
I've done too many Cook Offs.
It's knackering.
74
00:03:23,905 --> 00:03:26,991
Going through to next week is...
Joe.
75
00:03:27,016 --> 00:03:29,241
Oh!
APPLAUSE
76
00:03:29,266 --> 00:03:31,071
Well done.
77
00:03:31,096 --> 00:03:34,991
Who's in the semi-finals!
This guy. Yes.
78
00:03:35,016 --> 00:03:36,481
What are we doing?
79
00:03:36,506 --> 00:03:38,911
We're going to make
a spicy Thai pork salad.
80
00:03:38,936 --> 00:03:42,291
You know, just cooked to a nice pink
and then sliced,
81
00:03:42,316 --> 00:03:45,371
thrown on top
of this really nice her by salad.
82
00:03:45,396 --> 00:03:48,171
If you're thinking that's simple,
simple's egg on toast.
83
00:03:48,196 --> 00:03:51,171
There are a lot of spices
and there are a lot of herbs
84
00:03:51,196 --> 00:03:53,371
and he's got to balance
all these things out.
85
00:03:53,396 --> 00:03:55,891
Good?
That's lovely, isn't it. Yeah.
86
00:03:55,916 --> 00:03:58,221
Is that arrogant of me?
Yeah, no, that's good!
87
00:03:58,246 --> 00:04:01,371
I want that piece of meat to pick up
as much flavour as possible
88
00:04:01,396 --> 00:04:02,780
from that marinade.
89
00:04:02,805 --> 00:04:04,931
He has to cook that pork
at the very end.
90
00:04:04,956 --> 00:04:06,570
Whoa!
91
00:04:06,595 --> 00:04:09,261
I've got to get the outside sort
of charred a little bit
92
00:04:09,286 --> 00:04:12,861
and then the inside sort of moist.
Just thinly slice it.
93
00:04:12,886 --> 00:04:16,731
It looks amazing. It's rare you
can get excited about salads.
94
00:04:16,756 --> 00:04:19,221
I will give it my all.
95
00:04:19,246 --> 00:04:21,450
Would be nice to get the final,
wouldn't it? It would be.
96
00:04:21,475 --> 00:04:23,731
It would be a bloody miracle.
LAUGHTER
97
00:04:24,805 --> 00:04:27,061
APPLAUSE
98
00:04:29,925 --> 00:04:33,171
Josie and Joe, lovely to see you.
99
00:04:33,196 --> 00:04:35,171
Joe, what's it like
to be back in the kitchen?
100
00:04:35,196 --> 00:04:37,501
You must be pretty pumped?
Yep.
101
00:04:37,526 --> 00:04:39,981
Really pumped.
Are you all right, Jose?
102
00:04:40,006 --> 00:04:42,141
Yeah.
LAUGHTER
103
00:04:42,166 --> 00:04:44,530
Yeah, I don't how we stay so calm.
104
00:04:44,555 --> 00:04:46,061
Are you not calm?
105
00:04:46,086 --> 00:04:47,731
I've got four dishes.
106
00:04:47,756 --> 00:04:49,621
Joe, how many dishes have you got
going on?
107
00:04:49,646 --> 00:04:52,981
About seven or eight.
LAUGHTER
108
00:04:53,006 --> 00:04:56,171
Oh, yeah, couple of them
come out on fire, so...
109
00:04:58,086 --> 00:05:00,501
So Josie and Joe, as you know,
you've got one hour on the clock
110
00:05:00,526 --> 00:05:03,861
to prepare your dish
to the best of your ability,
111
00:05:03,886 --> 00:05:07,450
after which the six non-competing
chefs will then judge your plates.
112
00:05:07,475 --> 00:05:11,450
Yes, but remember,
you do have a lifeline.
113
00:05:11,475 --> 00:05:13,011
You can bang your golden frying pans
114
00:05:13,036 --> 00:05:16,450
and your mentors will come in
and help you for two minutes.
115
00:05:16,475 --> 00:05:20,650
Very best of luck. You are cooking
for a place in the final.
116
00:05:20,675 --> 00:05:21,811
Stars, get cooking.
117
00:05:21,836 --> 00:05:23,931
APPLAUSE
118
00:05:22,076 --> 00:05:30,076
Hi, I'm ginger.
I'm in one of Anton's dishes.
119
00:05:25,886 --> 00:05:27,621
Come on, Jose!
120
00:05:29,805 --> 00:05:31,780
Judy said don't balls this up.
121
00:05:31,805 --> 00:05:34,371
She's been very supportive the whole
way through.
122
00:05:34,396 --> 00:05:36,061
She's a lovely lady.
123
00:05:36,086 --> 00:05:38,421
I'm pretty sure
we're gonna stay in touch.
124
00:05:38,446 --> 00:05:42,700
I need to get my seasoning
for the fish done ASAP.
125
00:05:42,725 --> 00:05:45,650
Everything that I'm doing today
has got to be done perfect timing,
126
00:05:45,675 --> 00:05:48,091
because if it's not done
perfect timing, whole dish is out.
127
00:05:49,196 --> 00:05:52,421
Four dishes here. You know,
we are in the semi-finals now.
128
00:05:52,446 --> 00:05:54,261
It's time to up the game.
129
00:05:54,286 --> 00:05:59,171
You look like you know your way
around that knife, Jose. Thanks.
130
00:05:59,196 --> 00:06:02,211
Very quickly, you know
you are doing four things... Yeah.
131
00:06:02,236 --> 00:06:04,861
Joe is just making a salad.
Joe?
132
00:06:04,886 --> 00:06:07,171
Emma just said you're
making a salad?
133
00:06:07,196 --> 00:06:12,650
Joe is making rice, a salad, pork,
marinade, a sauce... Am I?
134
00:06:12,675 --> 00:06:15,621
And a dressing.
I love it!
135
00:06:17,006 --> 00:06:19,700
Now I'm making my marinade,
136
00:06:19,725 --> 00:06:22,650
which I call the soaky-soaky.
137
00:06:22,675 --> 00:06:25,731
Right, six cloves of garlic.
138
00:06:25,756 --> 00:06:28,341
God! Exhausting, this.
139
00:06:30,286 --> 00:06:33,931
'Joe is cooking Judy's spicy
grilled pork salad recipe,
140
00:06:33,956 --> 00:06:38,450
'served with a fragrant dressing,
coconut rice and coriander crisps.
141
00:06:38,475 --> 00:06:41,261
'The success of this
seemingly simple dish relies
142
00:06:41,286 --> 00:06:43,211
'predominately on the pork.
143
00:06:43,236 --> 00:06:45,450
'It must be
rich in flavour from the marinade
144
00:06:45,475 --> 00:06:47,570
'and be perfectly pink
on the inside.'
145
00:06:50,196 --> 00:06:52,291
BLENDER WHIRS
146
00:06:55,725 --> 00:06:57,900
I'm wasting my own time,
but that was good fun.
147
00:06:57,925 --> 00:07:01,731
He really has to get
the pork marinating,
148
00:07:01,756 --> 00:07:03,981
because he has got to get
that flavour in there.
149
00:07:04,006 --> 00:07:08,780
This marinade will become
my sauce, as well. There we go.
150
00:07:08,805 --> 00:07:10,091
Look at that.
151
00:07:10,116 --> 00:07:14,171
For me, this dish is similar
to what these guys have done
152
00:07:14,196 --> 00:07:17,091
the whole way through.
It's simple, it's safe.
153
00:07:17,116 --> 00:07:20,621
If they nail every element,
they'll be OK.
154
00:07:20,646 --> 00:07:22,570
But they have to nail every element.
155
00:07:24,475 --> 00:07:27,091
I'm really challenging
his knife skills here,
156
00:07:27,116 --> 00:07:30,621
so, yeah,
hopefully he's gonna show off today.
157
00:07:30,646 --> 00:07:33,421
I just...
158
00:07:33,446 --> 00:07:35,621
Oh, God!
SHE LAUGHS
159
00:07:37,725 --> 00:07:41,091
I've got to get this fish on because
I got to have 12 minutes to cook it
160
00:07:41,116 --> 00:07:44,541
in its cement and if I don't,
the fish is not cooked properly.
161
00:07:45,805 --> 00:07:49,501
'Josie is attempting Tony's
aromatic salt-baked sea bass
162
00:07:49,526 --> 00:07:52,141
'accompanied by three side dishes.
163
00:07:52,166 --> 00:07:55,541
'The key to this technically
difficult dish is correctly wrapping

'the fish and spices in the banana

165
00:07:59,166 --> 00:08:02,261
'so that the sea bass
cooks to perfection.'
166
00:08:02,286 --> 00:08:05,570
So I'm laying up this fish
with lemongrass, ginger, garlic,
167
00:08:05,595 --> 00:08:07,501
and I'm gonna put that head to top
168
00:08:07,526 --> 00:08:11,900
and then I've got to wrap this
in this banana leaf perfectly.
169
00:08:15,116 --> 00:08:17,011
Oh, no, what's happened?
170
00:08:17,036 --> 00:08:19,450
The banana leaf
is not big enough for my fish.
171
00:08:19,475 --> 00:08:20,851
I need a bigger banana leaf.
172
00:08:20,876 --> 00:08:23,900
They're very fragile, these banana
leaves, and we don't want any gaps,
173
00:08:23,925 --> 00:08:26,421
if there's any gaps,
the salt mix gets into the fish.
174
00:08:26,446 --> 00:08:30,261
As long as she covers the fish
and the salt's not there,
175
00:08:30,286 --> 00:08:32,931
it doesn't need to be
a fantastic kind of parcel.
176
00:08:32,956 --> 00:08:34,811
I'm going to have to double-wrap it.
177
00:08:36,366 --> 00:08:39,371
I'm meant to fold it at the ends,
but the ends aren't big enough.
178
00:08:45,956 --> 00:08:47,171
Gong. Here we go.
179
00:08:47,196 --> 00:08:48,780
GONG SOUNDS
180
00:08:48,805 --> 00:08:52,621
The banana leaves
aren't big enough! Look!
181
00:08:52,646 --> 00:08:54,650
The banana leaves aren't big enough!
I'll do it.
182
00:08:54,675 --> 00:08:57,341
They aren't big enough, are they?
No, no, they're fine.
183
00:08:57,366 --> 00:08:59,780
Remember, as long as it goes into...
184
00:08:59,805 --> 00:09:02,570
They are breaking apart.
It's OK.
185
00:09:02,595 --> 00:09:05,650
Oh, my God, I didn't put
the tarragon and basil on that one.
186
00:09:06,836 --> 00:09:10,061
Oh, my God! Yeah, you carry on.
All right.
187
00:09:11,805 --> 00:09:14,091
Good job you are here, Tone.
That's OK.
188
00:09:14,116 --> 00:09:16,291
20 seconds, Tony. 20 seconds.
Yeah.
189
00:09:16,316 --> 00:09:20,061
Right, Jose,
that's your fish done. OK.
190
00:09:20,086 --> 00:09:22,061
Just careful when you pack it down,
OK.
191
00:09:22,086 --> 00:09:25,650
Tony, get out of the kitchen.
Your time's up. OK.
192
00:09:25,675 --> 00:09:27,650
Tony, get out of the kitchen!
193
00:09:27,675 --> 00:09:30,650
Just about holding this together.
194
00:09:30,675 --> 00:09:34,171
I'll never, ever take on a dish
this hard again. I mean that.
195
00:09:39,343 --> 00:09:41,759
Welcome back to
Cooking With The Stars,
196
00:09:41,784 --> 00:09:44,648
where it's Josie Gibson
versus joe Wilkinson.
197
00:09:44,673 --> 00:09:48,369
They're taking on tricky Thai dishes
for a place in next week's final.
198
00:09:50,754 --> 00:09:52,679
Pressure's coming through now
on both of them.
199
00:09:52,704 --> 00:09:54,289
How are you getting on, Jose?
200
00:09:54,314 --> 00:09:57,318
I'm just making my meringue
salt crust
201
00:09:57,343 --> 00:09:59,599
while you're busy with your salad.
202
00:09:59,624 --> 00:10:01,809
Well, I'll be having
a lovely cook-off later.
203
00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:03,759
20 minutes, you stars.
204
00:10:03,784 --> 00:10:04,959
Both of them are behind.
205
00:10:04,984 --> 00:10:08,879
To be fair, building sandcastles
is not my forte.
206
00:10:08,904 --> 00:10:11,289
She needs to put the fish in,
she's not done the fish.
207
00:10:11,314 --> 00:10:14,218
She's got to put the fish
that's wrapped in the banana leaf
208
00:10:14,243 --> 00:10:16,949
to protect it from all that salt
209
00:10:16,974 --> 00:10:19,648
and then cover it
with the salt crust and bake it.
210
00:10:19,673 --> 00:10:23,448
You'll be amazed just the right
amount of salt, seasoning
211
00:10:23,473 --> 00:10:27,479
and flavour will permeate
the banana leaf into the fish.
212
00:10:27,504 --> 00:10:31,198
So she needs to get the fish in
very shortly.
213
00:10:31,223 --> 00:10:33,479
I might do a little fish design
on it, see how I go,
214
00:10:33,504 --> 00:10:35,679
but I'm running out of time.
Put the fish in.
215
00:10:35,704 --> 00:10:37,119
HE GROANS
Get the fish in!
216
00:10:38,954 --> 00:10:42,139
And now she's got the dish in,
it's in the lap of the food gods.
217
00:10:42,164 --> 00:10:43,949
SOFTLY: Oh, my God!
218
00:10:43,974 --> 00:10:45,949
SIZZLING
219
00:10:45,974 --> 00:10:48,879
We got a sizzle, OK!
220
00:10:50,473 --> 00:10:54,009
I'm now taking some marinade
off the pork
221
00:10:54,034 --> 00:10:57,369
so it doesn't...
COUGHING: ..burn! Ah!
222
00:10:57,394 --> 00:10:59,809
Judy, you've been working
with Joe, obviously.
223
00:10:59,834 --> 00:11:02,648
Last week, he was criticised
for doing something too simple.
224
00:11:02,673 --> 00:11:04,369
What's he got to do
to get in the final?
225
00:11:04,394 --> 00:11:06,879
He's really got to cook
that pork perfectly.
226
00:11:06,904 --> 00:11:08,599
You know,
we're in the semi—finals now
227
00:11:08,624 --> 00:11:11,198
so everybody is looking
for perfection.
228
00:11:11,223 --> 00:11:14,479
The slightest mistakes,
you'll get knocked down for. Mm.
229
00:11:14,504 --> 00:11:16,089
Anything that is overcooked,
230
00:11:16,114 --> 00:11:20,318
anything that is underdone
is going to get marked down.
231
00:11:20,343 --> 00:11:22,599
The pork, I want the skillet marks
on the bottom
232
00:11:22,624 --> 00:11:24,839
so that looks pretty,
233
00:11:24,864 --> 00:11:29,448
and I want it to be
not too cooked in the middle.
234
00:11:29,473 --> 00:11:31,009
0h!
235
00:11:37,954 --> 00:11:41,119
I think that's done.
I'm going for it.
236
00:11:41,144 --> 00:11:43,289
Yes, Josie!
237
00:11:43,314 --> 00:11:45,599
55.
238
00:11:45,624 --> 00:11:47,159
YES!
239
00:11:49,184 --> 00:11:50,929
0h!
240
00:11:50,954 --> 00:11:52,599
0h!
241
00:11:54,624 --> 00:11:56,599
She needs to take the plate
to the fish.
242
00:11:56,624 --> 00:11:58,089
Take the plate to the fish.
243
00:11:58,114 --> 00:12:00,239
Take the plate to the fish.
244
00:12:00,264 --> 00:12:01,799
Oh, it's the fish to the plate.
245
00:12:03,543 --> 00:12:05,318
EXHALES
246
00:12:05,343 --> 00:12:08,338
Five minutes, stars, five minutes.
247
00:12:08,363 --> 00:12:11,648
SPECTATORS: Go on, Josie!
Come on, Josie, come on!
248
00:12:11,673 --> 00:12:14,679
How does it look inside?
Perfect, I think.
249
00:12:14,704 --> 00:12:17,089
Oh, God, put it in the oven.
Put it in the oven.
250
00:12:17,114 --> 00:12:20,318
What? It's...
It's too raw, put it in the oven.
251
00:12:24,954 --> 00:12:26,599
JOE GROANS
252
00:12:26,624 --> 00:12:28,159
I'm in hell.
253
00:12:28,184 --> 00:12:31,159
He's put that back in the pan,
he's put that back in the pan.
254
00:12:31,184 --> 00:12:33,568
Er, they need a bit more time.
255
00:12:33,593 --> 00:12:34,879
This is too pink.
256
00:12:34,904 --> 00:12:37,039
Gonna make a big difference
now that it's cut.
257
00:12:37,064 --> 00:12:38,448
Absolutely. It'll dry it out.
258
00:12:38,473 --> 00:12:41,119
SIZZLING
259
00:12:42,673 --> 00:12:44,879
Stars, two minutes now,
two minutes.
260
00:12:44,904 --> 00:12:47,209
YELLS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
261
00:12:48,593 --> 00:12:50,089
APPLAUSE
262
00:12:51,673 --> 00:12:54,089
Yes, Josie!
263
00:12:55,314 --> 00:12:58,518
One minute left, just one minute!
264
00:12:58,543 --> 00:13:00,398
CHEERING, APPLAUSE
265
00:13:02,213 --> 00:13:05,159
Take your time, take your time.
I've got a lot to put out, Tone.
266
00:13:05,184 --> 00:13:08,119
Yeah, I know, come on.
Keep going, Josie.
267
00:13:08,144 --> 00:13:10,729
Ten, nine...
Josie, get the other one!
268
00:13:10,754 --> 00:13:16,959
...seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one.
269
00:13:16,984 --> 00:13:21,009
APPLAUSE
270
00:13:21,034 --> 00:13:22,929
Well done.
271
00:13:22,954 --> 00:13:25,799
Oh, looks good.
Oh, well done.
272
00:13:25,824 --> 00:13:29,648
TOM: Joe has cooked
a spicy grilled pork salad,
273
00:13:29,673 --> 00:13:33,509
but has he managed to pull off
that perfectly cooked pork
274
00:13:33,534 --> 00:13:35,448
in order to avoid the cook-off?
275
00:13:35,473 --> 00:13:38,769
I do think it was undercooked
because it was very, very pink.
276
00:13:38,794 --> 00:13:42,249
It was the colour of uncooked pork.
277
00:13:42,274 --> 00:13:45,448
I'd like to get to the final,
but I don't want to do a cook-off.
278
00:13:46,964 --> 00:13:51,019
EMMA: Josie has prepared aromatic
salt-baked M&S sea bass.
279
00:13:51,044 --> 00:13:53,489
Having taken on
a very difficult recipe,
280
00:13:53,514 --> 00:13:57,408
will she have done enough
to go through to the final?
281
00:13:57,433 --> 00:14:00,408
I thought that was the most
stressful period of my whole life,
282
00:14:00,433 --> 00:14:03,019
honestly.
That was more stressful than lab our!
283
00:14:03,044 --> 00:14:08,969
My salt-baked sea bass doesn't
probably look like it should do.
284
00:14:08,994 --> 00:14:13,769
If I went out today, I would be
really upset. Really gutted.
285
00:14:13,794 --> 00:14:17,528
With the six non-competing chefs
at the judges' table,
286
00:14:17,553 --> 00:14:19,169
it's time to taste the dishes.
287
00:14:21,124 --> 00:14:25,328
Right, chefs, first up
we've got Joe's Thai pork salad.
288
00:14:30,603 --> 00:14:33,448
All right, let's hear your opinions.
289
00:14:33,473 --> 00:14:35,299
Rosemary,
why don't we start with you?
290
00:14:35,324 --> 00:14:40,328
Right. Joe, first of all,
sauce, delicious.
291
00:14:40,353 --> 00:14:43,489
I love that lime,
all those flavours coming through.
292
00:14:43,514 --> 00:14:45,939
Absolutely yummy.
293
00:14:45,964 --> 00:14:48,809
But the pork, the bit I had...
294
00:14:48,834 --> 00:14:51,969
was tough.
Was tough?
295
00:14:51,994 --> 00:14:55,789
Oh, balls.
It was really chewy.
296
00:14:55,814 --> 00:14:58,328
You got the flavour,
but unfortunately,
297
00:14:58,353 --> 00:15:02,578
the sort of chewiness took away
what I was enjoying with flavour.
298
00:15:02,603 --> 00:15:05,939
Thank you.
And Jean-Chris top he.
299
00:15:05,964 --> 00:15:10,528
OK, it might not be the most sexy
dish on the planet,
300
00:15:10,553 --> 00:15:15,219
but I noticed that the only thing
I can smell from very far back
301
00:15:15,244 --> 00:15:17,169
was your pork.
302
00:15:17,194 --> 00:15:19,089
Was very dominant and I loved it.
303
00:15:19,114 --> 00:15:22,089
Therefore, in all, it was a good try
304
00:15:22,114 --> 00:15:24,019
and I would like to congratulate
you.
305
00:15:24,044 --> 00:15:25,448
Well done.
Mike.
306
00:15:25,473 --> 00:15:29,809
It's a good plate of food.
It's not a semi—final plate of food.
307
00:15:29,834 --> 00:15:34,939
I don't think the ambition
of the dish suits this week.
308
00:15:34,964 --> 00:15:37,129
I want you to be challenged more.
309
00:15:37,154 --> 00:15:40,689
You have the makings of a winner
of this competition.
310
00:15:40,714 --> 00:15:44,939
You just need to push yourself
that little bit more.
311
00:15:44,964 --> 00:15:49,799
OK, chefs, next up,
it's josie's Thai salt-baked fish.
312
00:15:49,824 --> 00:15:52,819
Exciting.
313
00:15:55,234 --> 00:15:58,079
Right, chefs, let's get
your thoughts. jack?
314
00:15:58,104 --> 00:15:59,438
Over to you first.
315
00:15:59,463 --> 00:16:02,209
When you can't see what's
happening in the oven,
316
00:16:02,234 --> 00:16:04,369
I was really nervous about that.
I really was.
317
00:16:04,394 --> 00:16:05,759
I thought, that's not gonna work.
318
00:16:05,784 --> 00:16:10,438
And honestly, that sea bass
is perfect. Perfectly cooked.
319
00:16:10,463 --> 00:16:14,799
I can't believe how you've done it,
it's mind-boggling. Well done.
320
00:16:14,824 --> 00:16:16,398
Well done.
321
00:16:16,423 --> 00:16:19,139
Clodagh, what do you think?
322
00:16:19,164 --> 00:16:23,568
This was one of the best sea bass
dishes I have had
323
00:16:23,593 --> 00:16:27,039
in a long, long time.
And I genuinely mean that.
324
00:16:27,064 --> 00:16:30,289
It was so perfect.
325
00:16:30,314 --> 00:16:32,209
There was no fault at all
in her cooking
326
00:16:32,234 --> 00:16:36,209
and that's what we're looking for
at this stage of the competition.
327
00:16:36,234 --> 00:16:39,719
Congratulations to both of you.
Yeah.
328
00:16:39,744 --> 00:16:41,599
Mike.
329
00:16:41,624 --> 00:16:47,369
Josie, this, for me, is what
I want to see in a semi—final.
330
00:16:47,394 --> 00:16:51,929
Tony, well clone.
You have pushed her to the max.
331
00:16:51,954 --> 00:16:56,119
You've got four beautiful plates
of food out.
332
00:16:56,144 --> 00:16:57,568
The sea bass?
333
00:16:57,593 --> 00:17:01,438
There's no way you should have been
able to execute this fish.
334
00:17:01,463 --> 00:17:04,239
In the banana leaf is enough.
335
00:17:04,264 --> 00:17:09,159
To then pack a salt crust on top
and cook it like that,
336
00:17:09,184 --> 00:17:11,318
well done.
APPLAUSE

00:17:11,343 --> 00:17:13,438
Well done.
338
00:17:15,453 --> 00:17:18,219
OK, chefs,
it's now time to make your decision.
339
00:17:18,244 --> 00:17:22,578
The winner of this battle will go
straight through to the grand final.
340
00:17:22,603 --> 00:17:24,609
Right, Mike,
we'll come to you first.
341
00:17:24,634 --> 00:17:27,729
Who do you think prepared
the best Thai dish?
342
00:17:27,754 --> 00:17:29,129
My favourite dish...
343
00:17:31,524 --> 00:17:32,809
...was josie's.
344
00:17:34,274 --> 00:17:36,689
Ronnie? Whose dish did it for you?
345
00:17:36,714 --> 00:17:39,379
Tough one this week,
but my favourite dish was Josie.
346
00:17:41,964 --> 00:17:43,109
Rosemary.
347
00:17:43,134 --> 00:17:44,959
My favourite dish today was Josie.
348
00:17:47,194 --> 00:17:50,379
So at the minute,
it's three votes for Josie.
349
00:17:50,404 --> 00:17:52,379
Jack, if you also pick Josie,
350
00:17:52,404 --> 00:17:55,969
then she will be through
to the final next week.
351
00:17:55,994 --> 00:17:58,169
My favourite dish...
352
00:17:58,194 --> 00:17:59,408
was Josie.
353
00:17:59,433 --> 00:18:00,889
APPLAUSE,
CHEERING
354
00:18:02,324 --> 00:18:05,089
You're in the final.
What? What?!
355
00:18:05,114 --> 00:18:06,658
No way!
356
00:18:09,834 --> 00:18:12,019
Oh, thank you.
That's so hard.
357
00:18:12,044 --> 00:18:14,969
Josie, you're in the final,
you're in the final. Final!
358
00:18:14,994 --> 00:18:16,859
Whoa, final!
359
00:18:16,884 --> 00:18:20,448
Oh, Joe, commiserations.
It was so close as well.
360
00:18:20,473 --> 00:18:24,299
Oh, well, lovely little cook-off.
LAUGHTER
361
00:18:24,324 --> 00:18:27,019
I think that's
your happy place, joe.
362
00:18:27,044 --> 00:18:29,889
Oh, it's been ages since I've done
a cook—off(!)
363
00:18:29,914 --> 00:18:31,939
LAUGHTER
364
00:18:31,964 --> 00:18:34,809
We'll soon know who joe is
going to face in the cook-off
365
00:18:34,834 --> 00:18:37,049
because it's time for our second
battle of the night.
366
00:18:37,074 --> 00:18:40,909
Yes, two stars, two mentors,
two dishes, too much!
367
00:18:40,934 --> 00:18:44,169
It's Maura versus
Dr Ranj.
368
00:18:44,194 --> 00:18:46,299
APPLAUSE
369
00:18:48,683 --> 00:18:51,939
French Week has been
an absolute roller-coaster.
370
00:18:54,274 --> 00:18:56,219
Looks beautiful, really stunning.
371
00:18:56,244 --> 00:18:57,769
You've pushed yourself,
so well done.
372
00:18:57,794 --> 00:19:01,219
I've come out of it thinking,
"I think I can do this."
373
00:19:01,244 --> 00:19:05,528
Ta-da!
Semi-finals, baby! Yes!
374
00:19:05,553 --> 00:19:08,749
I can't believe it.
375
00:19:08,774 --> 00:19:12,219
So this week, it's Thai Week.
Yes!
376
00:19:12,244 --> 00:19:14,689
That's my favourite, favourite food.
377
00:19:14,714 --> 00:19:17,448
Thai food contains all
the kinds of flavours I love.
378
00:19:17,473 --> 00:19:19,658
We are going to make
a Thai green curry,
379
00:19:19,683 --> 00:19:24,089
coconut rice
and a pickled cucumber Thai salad.
380
00:19:24,114 --> 00:19:28,139
Where the tricky part of it is
is the balance of flavours. Yeah.
381
00:19:28,164 --> 00:19:31,859
The making of the Thai green paste
is really important.
382
00:19:31,884 --> 00:19:36,089
It's basically every flavour
of Thailand compressed together.
383
00:19:36,114 --> 00:19:38,578
Coconut cream goes in first.
Yep. Then next,
384
00:19:38,603 --> 00:19:42,809
we are putting in the coconut milk.
Ohh, look at that!
385
00:19:42,834 --> 00:19:46,528
Balancing the spices is tricky,
but I feel like I've learnt a lot.
386
00:19:46,553 --> 00:19:49,809
Do you want to put a little bit more
spice in there? Yeah. Can I?
387
00:19:49,834 --> 00:19:51,369
Mm! The confidence is kicking in.
388
00:19:51,394 --> 00:19:56,049
He is using his instinct
and that is really exciting to see.
389
00:19:56,074 --> 00:19:57,859
This smells amazing!
390
00:19:57,884 --> 00:19:59,759
Do you know what,
it's a winning dish.
391
00:19:59,784 --> 00:20:02,389
Maura, you'd better bring
your A game.
392
00:20:06,524 --> 00:20:09,328
French Week was difficult.
393
00:20:09,353 --> 00:20:11,169
I don't have enough time!
394
00:20:11,194 --> 00:20:13,448
I got so stressed!
395
00:20:13,473 --> 00:20:15,089
Next week is gonna be
even tougher.
396
00:20:15,114 --> 00:20:18,089
Semi-finals, though,
this is a tough dish,
397
00:20:18,114 --> 00:20:20,809
there's a lot of things to remember,
lots of spices.
398
00:20:20,834 --> 00:20:23,139
The judges will be looking
for perfection
399
00:20:23,164 --> 00:20:26,139
and they'll be looking
for authenticity. It's Thai Week.
400
00:20:26,164 --> 00:20:30,328
We're doing khao soi, which is
a curried noodle soup with chicken.
401
00:20:30,353 --> 00:20:31,328
0h!
402
00:20:31,353 --> 00:20:32,809
With the cooking of the chicken,
403
00:20:32,834 --> 00:20:35,089
she just needs to make sure
she gives the time in the pan
404
00:20:35,114 --> 00:20:37,009
to get that lovely golden-brown
colour.
405
00:20:37,034 --> 00:20:39,219
We need to make sure
that it's cooked to perfection.
406
00:20:39,244 --> 00:20:42,049
We need to make our curry paste
from scratch.
407
00:20:42,074 --> 00:20:45,809
So you've got your wet ingredients
here for your pestle and mortar. OK.
408
00:20:45,834 --> 00:20:47,889
We could just put it into a blender,
409
00:20:47,914 --> 00:20:49,689
but that's not what they do
in Thailand.
410
00:20:51,914 --> 00:20:54,219
Oh!
In your eye?
411
00:20:54,244 --> 00:20:56,969
Oh, my God!
412
00:20:56,994 --> 00:20:59,729
Honestly, I felt this lump
hit my eye.
413
00:20:59,754 --> 00:21:01,578
Oh, it's burning! Oh!
414
00:21:01,603 --> 00:21:03,249
Just lean your head back.
415
00:21:03,274 --> 00:21:05,969
I just need to be more careful.
416
00:21:05,994 --> 00:21:10,169
I came in and I said I hope I don't
get chilli in my eye today. Bang.
417
00:21:10,194 --> 00:21:11,448
If that happens on the day,
418
00:21:11,473 --> 00:21:14,169
I'm gonna definitely lose
about ten minutes of time.
419
00:21:14,194 --> 00:21:16,049
So it can't happen.
420
00:21:16,074 --> 00:21:19,809
And now I'm this far, it's like,
yeah, I just wanna win now.
421
00:21:21,603 --> 00:21:23,809
CHEERING
422
00:21:25,114 --> 00:21:29,759
Maura and Ranj,
welcome back to the kitchen.
423
00:21:29,784 --> 00:21:33,299
Maura, Dr Ranj, how much do
you want to be in the final?
424
00:21:33,324 --> 00:21:34,609
I really, really want to.
425
00:21:34,634 --> 00:21:36,578
I'm sorry, I really, really want to.
426
00:21:36,603 --> 00:21:38,939
It's when you get this close
as well, just want to get there.
427
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:40,809
Yeah.
We're getting so competitive now!
428
00:21:40,834 --> 00:21:43,089
LAUGHTER
429
00:21:43,114 --> 00:21:44,759
We“, Maura and Dr Ran
430
00:21:44,784 --> 00:21:47,328
you have an hour
to prepare your dish.
431
00:21:47,353 --> 00:21:50,578
As you know, you have a lifeline.
If you bang your golden frying pan,
432
00:21:50,603 --> 00:21:52,578
your mentor will come
to your assistance.
433
00:21:52,603 --> 00:21:54,009
OK, I feel a battle coming on.
434
00:21:54,034 --> 00:21:57,299
This is for a place in the final.
435
00:21:57,324 --> 00:21:59,219
Stop giving me evils!
I'm not!
436
00:21:59,244 --> 00:22:00,578
LAUGHTER
437
00:22:00,603 --> 00:22:02,729
Stars, get cooking!
438
00:22:02,754 --> 00:22:06,889
WHOOPING, APPLAUSE
439
00:22:08,784 --> 00:22:11,089
Do you know what,
I've said many times I cook a lot.
440
00:22:11,114 --> 00:22:13,809
I don't, I literally cook like
once a week, but obviously,
441
00:22:13,834 --> 00:22:16,578
everything was from the jar,
so literally,
442
00:22:16,603 --> 00:22:20,499
to be doing stuff like this
is... actually crazy.
443
00:22:20,524 --> 00:22:22,398
Jack has taught me so much.
444
00:22:22,423 --> 00:22:24,729
I wanna do well,
I wanna do jack proud.
445
00:22:24,754 --> 00:22:27,609
I know he really wants to get
to the final
446
00:22:27,634 --> 00:22:29,809
so I want to make that happen.
447
00:22:29,834 --> 00:22:32,169
Maura is awesome!
448
00:22:32,194 --> 00:22:36,528
Her dish is from northern Thailand.
449
00:22:36,553 --> 00:22:40,119
Mine is southern Thailand,
but they're very similar,
450
00:22:40,144 --> 00:22:44,648
so I feel like we're literally
going head-to-head in this.
451
00:22:44,673 --> 00:22:46,969
They're gonna get judged
pretty closely,
452
00:22:46,994 --> 00:22:50,729
but I keep telling myself it'll
be fine, just keep my head down.
453
00:22:50,754 --> 00:22:53,859
For me, it's gonna be down to
the flavour of those curries
454
00:22:53,884 --> 00:22:56,889
is going to be the decider
in all of this.
455
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:04,137
Guess what week it is?
456
00:23:04,162 --> 00:23:06,347
Welcome back
to Cooking With The Stars
457
00:23:06,372 --> 00:23:10,267
where Maura Higgins and Dr Ranj
are giving us a taste of Thailand
458
00:23:10,292 --> 00:23:11,678
because it's...
459
00:23:11,703 --> 00:23:14,428
Well, you might be ahead of me here,
but it's actually Thai Week.
460
00:23:14,453 --> 00:23:16,908
They are battling for a place
in the grand final.
461
00:23:16,933 --> 00:23:20,238
There will be a winner AND a loser.
462
00:23:20,263 --> 00:23:22,788
And somehow,
there will still be a tie.
463
00:23:27,622 --> 00:23:29,188
How you doing, Maura?
464
00:23:29,213 --> 00:23:31,628
Erm... I'm stressed.
465
00:23:31,653 --> 00:23:33,597
You don't need to be,
you're awesome.
466
00:23:33,622 --> 00:23:35,188
This is very important.
467
00:23:35,213 --> 00:23:38,548
I have to turn all this
dry ingredient into a paste.
468
00:23:40,983 --> 00:23:43,108
TOM: 'For Thai Week,
Maura is tackling
469
00:23:43,133 --> 00:23:44,828
'a Chiang Mai curried noodle soup.
470
00:23:44,853 --> 00:23:47,267
'The success
of this very traditional recipe
471
00:23:47,292 --> 00:23:49,988
'hangs on an authentically bounded
curry paste
472
00:23:50,013 --> 00:23:52,108
'and perfectly cooked chicken.'
473
00:23:54,343 --> 00:23:55,678
Is that half? I think it is.
474
00:23:57,093 --> 00:23:59,597
All right? ls everyone breathing
still? Oh, still breathing.
475
00:23:59,622 --> 00:24:02,597
I am worried though
because in training,
476
00:24:02,622 --> 00:24:05,267
in this pestle and mortar, she got
a big bit of chilli in her eye.
477
00:24:05,292 --> 00:24:06,828
She was really upset.
478
00:24:06,853 --> 00:24:09,108
As in, she was like,
"I'm not doing this."
479
00:24:12,453 --> 00:24:14,467
I mean business.
480
00:24:14,492 --> 00:24:19,498
CHEERING AND LAUGHTER
481
00:24:19,523 --> 00:24:22,828
Basically, I nearly lost an eye
the last time I did this
482
00:24:22,853 --> 00:24:24,958
so it ain't happening again.
483
00:24:28,853 --> 00:24:30,028
It's a grind off.
484
00:24:30,053 --> 00:24:32,858
Oh, he's got a smaller one.
485
00:24:32,883 --> 00:24:35,028
It's not about size, Maura,
it's what you do with it.
486
00:24:35,053 --> 00:24:37,137
LAUGHTER
487
00:24:40,053 --> 00:24:42,467
God, I'm sweating.
488
00:24:44,703 --> 00:24:45,748
Moving on.
489
00:24:45,773 --> 00:24:47,597
It's all about pounding the paste,
490
00:24:47,622 --> 00:24:50,068
so the crushing
of things like ginger and garlic,
491
00:24:50,093 --> 00:24:52,028
and chilli, to get the oils out.
492
00:24:52,053 --> 00:24:54,467
You cannot do this in the machine.
493
00:24:54,492 --> 00:24:55,858
It's this far in the competition,
494
00:24:55,883 --> 00:24:57,597
I wanted to show her
to show the skill
495
00:24:57,622 --> 00:25:00,188
to get all that flavour out
cos it's such an important part
496
00:25:00,213 --> 00:25:01,318
of the dish.
497
00:25:01,343 --> 00:25:02,828
Perfect.
498
00:25:02,853 --> 00:25:05,347
Just on time, just on time.
499
00:25:05,372 --> 00:25:07,628
30 minutes left! 30 minutes!
500
00:25:11,703 --> 00:25:14,908
Add a bit of lemon grass... on top.
501
00:25:16,093 --> 00:25:19,908
EMMA: 'Dr Ranj's dish is

00:25:34,622 --> 00:25:37,597
Don't want to stirring it,
don't want him taking off that lid.
508
00:25:37,622 --> 00:25:40,597
It's really difficult
because you've got to get the water
509
00:25:40,622 --> 00:25:43,858
and the amount of rice ratio
just right
510
00:25:43,883 --> 00:25:45,648
otherwise it all goes wrong.
511
00:25:45,673 --> 00:25:49,008
So the minute that
all of that moisture is absorbed
512
00:25:49,033 --> 00:25:51,898
is when the rice is ready,
otherwise it'll burn
513
00:25:51,923 --> 00:25:54,088
or, if there's still
too much liquid left,
514
00:25:54,113 --> 00:25:56,617
it'll be a little bit undercooked
and a little bit soggy.
515
00:25:59,312 --> 00:26:01,438
Stop, stop, stop stirring it.
Stop stirring it.
516
00:26:01,463 --> 00:26:02,688
That's enough. That's enough.
517
00:26:04,113 --> 00:26:06,978
The rice is cooked,
so it's just resting.
518
00:26:07,003 --> 00:26:09,258
20 minutes left, you stars!
519
00:26:12,363 --> 00:26:16,407
He looks so in control,
everything just feels calmer. Mmm.
520
00:26:16,432 --> 00:26:19,878
He's good.
He knows what he's looking for.
521
00:26:19,903 --> 00:26:24,848
I like the way he's got a tea towel
on his shoulder, like a chef.
522
00:26:28,953 --> 00:26:30,768
Nice. It's good.
523
00:26:32,283 --> 00:26:33,898
SIZZLING
524

Arghg
525
00:26:38,233 --> 00:26:40,487
I have to make sure
this chicken is brown.
526
00:26:40,512 --> 00:26:42,048
Very important.
527
00:26:42,073 --> 00:26:43,728
SIZZLING
528
00:26:43,753 --> 00:26:45,518
Ah, look at that!
529
00:26:47,073 --> 00:26:51,798
I'm afraid to leave it
because it's, erm... pretty brown.
530
00:26:51,823 --> 00:26:54,407
Can't burn it, can't burn it.
531
00:26:54,432 --> 00:26:57,008
I won't be in the final, will I,
if I burn it?
532
00:26:57,033 --> 00:26:58,798
She needs to sear it off
at a really high heat,
533
00:26:58,823 --> 00:27:01,487
she just wants that caramelisation
because that's what the judges
534
00:27:01,512 --> 00:27:03,008
will be looking for.
535
00:27:03,033 --> 00:27:04,798
Then she can use the oven
to finish it off.
536
00:27:04,823 --> 00:27:08,568
SIZZLING
537
00:27:08,593 --> 00:27:10,088
Do you know what?
538
00:27:10,113 --> 00:27:11,978
I double-check my ingredients
a million times
539
00:27:12,003 --> 00:27:13,617
just in case I miss something out.
540
00:27:13,642 --> 00:27:15,878
Onion, onion.
541
00:27:15,903 --> 00:27:18,688
Do you know what, I totally
forgot about the pickled onion.
542
00:27:18,713 --> 00:27:20,518
Have I lost my mind?
543
00:27:25,153 --> 00:27:28,728
Ah. I've cut it wrong.
I've cut it wrong.
544
00:27:28,753 --> 00:27:30,157
Where's my other onion gone?
545
00:27:30,182 --> 00:27:32,898
Can I have another red onion,
please?
546
00:27:32,923 --> 00:27:34,768
Where's my tablespoon?
547
00:27:34,793 --> 00:27:36,518
She looks flustered.
548
00:27:36,543 --> 00:27:37,978
Why is it not simmering?
549
00:27:38,003 --> 00:27:39,978
Panic is starting to set in.
Yeah.
550
00:27:40,003 --> 00:27:41,328
You can see it on her face.
551
00:27:42,642 --> 00:27:45,407
Simmer, please.
We just need a light bubble.
552
00:27:46,593 --> 00:27:47,617
I need to check.
553
00:27:50,153 --> 00:27:51,328

00:27:55,003 --> 00:27:56,328
jack, try this sauce.
556
00:27:58,953 --> 00:28:01,078
Yep.
Oh, ha-ha-ha.
557
00:28:01,103 --> 00:28:02,688
When am I putting the noodles in?
558
00:28:02,713 --> 00:28:04,407
Just right... You know... Ow, argh!
559
00:28:04,432 --> 00:28:07,367
Is the sauce perfect?
Why did you do that?
560
00:28:07,392 --> 00:28:09,287
Ooh, that just came out the oven...
Oh, no.
561
00:28:09,312 --> 00:28:11,768
...and he picked it up with his hand
and carried it across.
562
00:28:11,793 --> 00:28:14,208
Is that boiling enough?
Yeah. You got salt in there?
563
00:28:14,233 --> 00:28:16,487
30 seconds now, jack. 30 seconds.
564
00:28:16,512 --> 00:28:18,928
So, I'm basically putting them
on a boil, one minute...
565
00:28:18,953 --> 00:28:21,128
One minute and then in there...
And then off the heat.
566
00:28:21,153 --> 00:28:23,048
And don't forget to reheat it
before you serve it.
567
00:28:23,073 --> 00:28:25,078
Wait, wait, jack, Jack...
jack, out the kitchen!
568
00:28:25,103 --> 00:28:26,487
What else?
Take them out.
569
00:28:26,512 --> 00:28:28,648
Drain them. Drain them!
Drain them.
570
00:28:28,673 --> 00:28:30,928
Well done, jack.
571
00:28:30,953 --> 00:28:32,258
You all right?
572
00:28:32,283 --> 00:28:34,518
Yeah, I burnt my hand a little bit,
but other than that...
573
00:28:36,593 --> 00:28:38,768
Star, five minutes,
five minutes now.
574
00:28:38,793 --> 00:28:40,898
Oh, my God.
I just don't wanna watch.
575
00:28:45,463 --> 00:28:48,878
It needs to be
a perfect presentation.
576
00:28:51,463 --> 00:28:53,367
APPLAUSE
577
00:28:53,392 --> 00:28:54,688

on there.

Come on, Maura, pickled onions.
582
00:29:06,642 --> 00:29:08,287
30 seconds, Maura.

It's a panic again.
593
00:29:40,463 --> 00:29:42,008
I literally just got it out on time.
594
00:29:42,033 --> 00:29:45,928
The standard is so high,
we're in the semi-finals so...

I hope they fall in love with it.

that Clodagh has given me

601
00:30:06,392 --> 00:30:08,008
It's a complicated dish.
602
00:30:08,033 --> 00:30:12,848
I know that I couldn't have done
better in the time, I couldn't have.
603
00:30:12,873 --> 00:30:14,848
Yeah, I just hope they like it.
604
00:30:14,873 --> 00:30:19,367
OK, chefs, first up, we've got

00:30:28,512 --> 00:30:30,208
OK, chefs, let's get your thoughts.

...| love it.
612
00:30:35,432 --> 00:30:37,048
Yay!
613
00:30:37,073 --> 00:30:39,898
The curry... gorgeous flavour.
614
00:30:39,923 --> 00:30:42,518
It's beautiful.
Yay! Thank you.
615
00:30:42,543 --> 00:30:44,287
Well done.
616
00:30:44,312 --> 00:30:45,928
Judy, what you think?
617
00:30:45,953 --> 00:30:47,968
You should be really,
really proud of yourself.
618
00:30:47,993 --> 00:30:51,357
The curry, it is punchy,
it is vibrant, it's nice.
619
00:30:51,382 --> 00:30:54,128
But the rice, it's over.
620
00:30:54,153 --> 00:30:55,968
Rice is kind of sacred
in this culture
621
00:30:55,993 --> 00:30:59,078
so I would have loved to have seen
that rice been cooked... less.
622
00:30:59,103 --> 00:31:00,768
And Rosemary?
623
00:31:00,793 --> 00:31:02,768
I love the green Thai curry.
624
00:31:02,793 --> 00:31:06,157
I got the kick at the back,
which was absolutely lovely.
625
00:31:06,182 --> 00:31:08,648
Now, the rice,
I don't mean to be rude,
626
00:31:08,673 --> 00:31:10,287
it's a little bit rice pudding-ish.
627
00:31:10,312 --> 00:31:13,008
I'm just being super critical cos
we're going through to the final.
628
00:31:13,033 --> 00:31:15,208
Well done, honestly.
629
00:31:15,233 --> 00:31:20,648
OK, chefs, next up it's Maura's
Chiang Mai curried noodle soup.
630
00:31:27,073 --> 00:31:28,848
Rosemary, what you think?
631
00:31:28,873 --> 00:31:30,798
I can't believe how far you've come.
632
00:31:30,823 --> 00:31:33,078
This is amazing.
633
00:31:33,103 --> 00:31:35,048
I thought the flavour was delicious.
634
00:31:35,073 --> 00:31:38,287
But the spices weren't cooked off,
you could... they were grainy.
635
00:31:38,312 --> 00:31:42,128
The chicken was beautiful,
the chicken was really good.
636
00:31:42,153 --> 00:31:46,848
But it lacked... an oomph,
it lacked the seasoning. OK.
637
00:31:46,873 --> 00:31:48,407
Judy?
638
00:31:48,432 --> 00:31:50,328
Beautiful plate of food, Maura.
639
00:31:50,353 --> 00:31:54,568
You are going from strength
to strength, honestly.
640
00:31:54,593 --> 00:31:57,407
The curry is really nice,
maybe a little bit more heat.
641
00:31:57,432 --> 00:31:59,898
Chicken, perfectly cooked.
Well done.
642
00:31:59,923 --> 00:32:03,438
To keep chicken breast moist
is a nearly impossible task,
643
00:32:03,463 --> 00:32:05,607
so bravo.
Thank you.
644
00:32:05,632 --> 00:32:06,718
EMMA: Tony?
645
00:32:06,743 --> 00:32:10,407
The chicken, cooked perfectly.
The sauce was lovely.
646
00:32:10,432 --> 00:32:14,128
The critique I would say is
the spices weren't cooked out.
647
00:32:14,153 --> 00:32:18,328
You still had that raw spice
on your teeth and your tongue.
648
00:32:18,353 --> 00:32:21,048
Right, is decision time now.
649
00:32:21,073 --> 00:32:25,287
The winner of this battle
will join Josie in the grand final.
650
00:32:25,312 --> 00:32:29,328
The loser will face
tonight's Cook Off with Joe.
651
00:32:29,353 --> 00:32:30,648
So, Mike, let's start with you.
652
00:32:30,673 --> 00:32:33,407
Who's Thai dish impressed you
the most?
653
00:32:33,432 --> 00:32:35,898
It's dishes were outstanding.
654
00:32:35,923 --> 00:32:38,648
Unfortunately,
I can only choose one.
655
00:32:38,673 --> 00:32:40,357
And the dish...
656
00:32:40,382 --> 00:32:41,688
that I love the most...
657
00:32:41,713 --> 00:32:43,718
was Maura's.
658
00:32:43,743 --> 00:32:45,078
Thank you.
659
00:32:45,103 --> 00:32:46,718
Jean-Chris top he?
660
00:32:46,743 --> 00:32:48,208
I really enjoyed both of them.
661
00:32:48,233 --> 00:32:51,648
The one I prefer the most
is Dr Ranj.
662
00:32:51,673 --> 00:32:53,328
Thank you.
663
00:32:53,353 --> 00:32:55,898
Judy, whose dish wins it for you?
664
00:32:55,923 --> 00:32:58,287
They're both excellent.
665
00:32:58,312 --> 00:33:00,688
My favourite dish is Maura's.
666
00:33:00,713 --> 00:33:02,848
Thank you.
667
00:33:02,873 --> 00:33:04,078
Ronnie?
668
00:33:04,103 --> 00:33:05,718
Tricky, tricky.
669
00:33:05,743 --> 00:33:07,648
But my favourite dish, Dr Ranj.
670
00:33:07,673 --> 00:33:11,208
Yes. Yes.
671
00:33:11,233 --> 00:33:12,607
Tony?
672
00:33:12,632 --> 00:33:15,537
So difficult to choose.
673
00:33:15,562 --> 00:33:17,178
As by the smallest margin,
674
00:33:17,203 --> 00:33:19,048
my favourite dish
was cooked by Dr Ranj.
675
00:33:19,073 --> 00:33:20,688
Yes.
676
00:33:20,713 --> 00:33:22,287
Now we come to Rosemary.
677
00:33:22,312 --> 00:33:26,287
Currently, the score is 3-2
to Dr Ranj.
678
00:33:26,312 --> 00:33:29,968
If you vote for Ranj,
he'll go through to the final.
679
00:33:29,993 --> 00:33:32,438
Both excellent. Love them both.
680
00:33:33,743 --> 00:33:36,328
But the one today
which was my favourite...
681
00:33:38,182 --> 00:33:39,798
"Dr Ran}.
682
00:33:39,823 --> 00:33:41,208
Yes.
Oh!
683
00:33:41,233 --> 00:33:43,607
Congratulations, Dr Ranj.
684
00:33:43,632 --> 00:33:47,898
APPLAUSE
685
00:33:47,923 --> 00:33:50,048
My God! What?!
In the final!
686
00:33:50,073 --> 00:33:51,648
APPLAUSE
687
00:33:51,673 --> 00:33:54,537
Dr Ranj, how are you feeling
about going through to the final?
688
00:33:54,562 --> 00:33:56,718
I'm over the moon. I can't...
689
00:33:56,743 --> 00:33:58,928
It's not sunk in yet,
it really hasn't.
690
00:33:58,953 --> 00:34:01,928
I can't believe it.
I really can't. Thank you.
691
00:34:01,953 --> 00:34:04,607
Maura, how do you feel about
facing up to joe now
692
00:34:04,632 --> 00:34:05,768
in the Cook Off?
693
00:34:05,793 --> 00:34:08,848
He's had a lot of Cook Offs
so he's used to it. I've not.
694
00:34:08,873 --> 00:34:10,718
You've not cos you're really good
at cooking.
695
00:34:10,743 --> 00:34:12,248
Pardon?
696
00:34:12,273 --> 00:34:14,487
LAUGHTER
697
00:34:14,512 --> 00:34:16,328
Right, we don't have long to wait
698
00:34:16,353 --> 00:34:18,537
because coming up
it is the Cook Off.
699
00:34:18,562 --> 00:34:22,718
Yes, Joe and Maura face a recipe
they've never even seen
700
00:34:22,743 --> 00:34:24,287
for a place in the final.
701
00:34:24,312 --> 00:34:25,998
So don't go away now!
702
00:34:26,023 --> 00:34:29,928
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
703
00:34:35,043 --> 00:34:37,078
Welcome back
to Cooking With The Stars
704
00:34:37,103 --> 00:34:39,078
where Joe Wilkinson
and Maura Higgins
705
00:34:39,103 --> 00:34:43,468
are about to face a Cook Off for
a place in next week's grand final.
706
00:34:43,493 --> 00:34:46,978
Joe and Maura, you will
have to follow a recipe
707
00:34:47,003 --> 00:34:49,697
you've never seen before.
708
00:34:49,722 --> 00:34:51,908
It'll be judged by all eight chefs,
709
00:34:51,933 --> 00:34:53,867
they've currently been sent
to the judging room
710
00:34:53,892 --> 00:34:56,308
so they will not know
who has cooked which dish.
711
00:34:56,333 --> 00:34:59,697
We can now reveal
your Cook Off dish is...
712
00:35:02,083 --> 00:35:05,867
...Thai spring rolls
with a sweet chilli sauce.
713
00:35:05,892 --> 00:35:07,388
How you feeling about that?
714
00:35:07,413 --> 00:35:09,108
Shall we just walk out now?
Yeah.
715
00:35:09,133 --> 00:35:10,978
I don't think we're gonna bother.
TOM LAUGHS
716
00:35:12,892 --> 00:35:15,697
Thai spring rolls
with a sweet chilli sauce.
717
00:35:17,253 --> 00:35:19,898
There are so many things
where they can go wrong with this,
718
00:35:19,923 --> 00:35:21,108
I cannot tell you.
719
00:35:23,003 --> 00:35:25,308
First up,
they need to make the filling.
720
00:35:25,333 --> 00:35:28,867
The filling has to be cut neatly
and full of flavour.
721
00:35:28,892 --> 00:35:31,508
They've gotta get that pork
cooked off as well.
722
00:35:32,642 --> 00:35:35,978
Then, they need to make
the spring roll wrappers.
723
00:35:36,003 --> 00:35:38,898
A spring roll wrapper?
Are you kidding me?
724
00:35:40,333 --> 00:35:43,778
They're going to have to make
a really fine batter.
725
00:35:44,892 --> 00:35:49,028
They have to be so thin,
paper-thin, translucent.
726
00:35:50,133 --> 00:35:53,508
If it's too thick,
it won't fold right.
727
00:35:53,533 --> 00:35:57,028
They also have to make sure
that they seal the spring roll.
728
00:35:57,053 --> 00:35:59,568
If they don't, the entire thing's
just gonna bust open.
729
00:35:59,593 --> 00:36:01,847
They they've gotta fry
the spring rolls.
730
00:36:01,872 --> 00:36:05,108
It should be golden and crispy
on the outside.
731
00:36:05,133 --> 00:36:07,947
With the sweet chilli sauce,
we're looking for sweetness,
732
00:36:07,972 --> 00:36:10,148
acidity, but that chilli kick.
733
00:36:10,173 --> 00:36:13,308
We are looking for perfection.
734
00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:15,668
APPLAUSE
735
00:36:15,693 --> 00:36:19,468
OK, so, joe, Maura, you've got
the recipe in front of you
736
00:36:19,493 --> 00:36:22,798
and this time you've got 50 minutes
on the clock.
737
00:36:22,823 --> 00:36:26,978
Only one thing left to say,
and that's, stars, get cooking!
738
00:36:27,003 --> 00:36:31,258
APPLAUSE
739
00:36:32,972 --> 00:36:38,258
This is a super tough challenge,
as it should be for the semi-finals.
740
00:36:38,283 --> 00:36:40,898
Hopefully, they'll make
six fantastic spring rolls.
741
00:36:43,613 --> 00:36:48,827
So, this is for the inside
of the spring roll.
742
00:36:48,852 --> 00:36:52,028
The filling, right,
all those vegetables
743
00:36:52,053 --> 00:36:54,388
have to be prepped perfectly.
744
00:36:56,813 --> 00:36:58,438
I actually love spring rolls,
745
00:36:58,463 --> 00:37:00,947
but I've never cooked spring rolls
before.
746
00:37:00,972 --> 00:37:02,867
So that's making me
a little nervous.
747
00:37:04,283 --> 00:37:07,388
You want them seasoned perfectly.
748
00:37:09,053 --> 00:37:10,898
RAN]: Ooh, I love a little drizzle
of salt.
749
00:37:10,923 --> 00:37:11,947
ANTON: Oh, no.
750
00:37:11,972 --> 00:37:13,747
There's a lot going into the pan.
751
00:37:13,772 --> 00:37:15,668
It shouldn't be overpowering,
752
00:37:15,693 --> 00:37:17,947
it should be just there
to elevate the filling.
753
00:37:29,213 --> 00:37:33,867
This is so salty. I think
I went overboard, way too much.
754
00:37:33,892 --> 00:37:35,418
Oh, God, I'm just...
755
00:37:36,613 --> 00:37:38,188
...in panic mode.
756
00:37:38,213 --> 00:37:39,978
Just add the soy sauce.
757
00:37:41,363 --> 00:37:45,108
The Cook Offs are
an absolute delight. I love it.
758
00:37:45,133 --> 00:37:46,668
Couldn't be happier.
759
00:37:50,613 --> 00:37:53,048
Keep it going, joe.
That looks great.
760
00:37:58,443 --> 00:38:01,788
I'm really confused
how he is literally done.
761
00:38:01,813 --> 00:38:04,028
Right, what am I doing now?
762
00:38:08,642 --> 00:38:12,228
The hardest part,
they have to make the wrapper.
763
00:38:12,253 --> 00:38:15,148
That is hard.
764
00:38:15,173 --> 00:38:17,188
Chefs would struggle with that.
765
00:38:17,213 --> 00:38:20,867
The consistency of that batter
is all—important.
766
00:38:22,923 --> 00:38:24,308
120 of flour.
767
00:38:27,203 --> 00:38:30,418
Three tablespoons of cornflour.
768
00:38:32,003 --> 00:38:34,258
125 grams of water.
769
00:38:34,283 --> 00:38:36,898
I started this again cos I think
all my measurements were wrong.
770
00:38:39,722 --> 00:38:41,867
I don't know if this is...
771
00:38:41,892 --> 00:38:43,668
completely wrong.
772
00:38:43,693 --> 00:38:46,747
Oh, my God. It's a workout.
773
00:38:48,813 --> 00:38:52,978
When it goes into the pan,
it has to be thin,
774
00:38:53,003 --> 00:38:55,468
it should almost be translucent.
775
00:38:59,443 --> 00:39:02,617
That pancake is hard.
That is treacherous, in fact.
776
00:39:02,642 --> 00:39:04,058
And they have to make six of them.
777
00:39:07,613 --> 00:39:10,788
I don't know if this is
the right consistency.
778
00:39:12,253 --> 00:39:15,368
Oh, let's... Genuinely no idea.
779
00:39:15,393 --> 00:39:17,498
I've no idea if this is any good
or not.
780
00:39:19,933 --> 00:39:22,548
To wrap it itself, when they come
to wrap the whole thing,
781
00:39:22,573 --> 00:39:24,348
this is really tricky.
782
00:39:24,373 --> 00:39:26,757
Not sticking there.
783
00:39:27,862 --> 00:39:30,988
Why do I think they're sticking?
Cos I've never made them before.
784
00:39:31,013 --> 00:39:32,598
If those wrappers don't stick,
785
00:39:32,623 --> 00:39:35,438
get a tiny little bit of flour,
a little bit of water,
786
00:39:35,463 --> 00:39:37,598
and just use that
very, very sparingly
787
00:39:37,623 --> 00:39:39,268
and that will keep it stuck.
788
00:39:39,293 --> 00:39:40,478
You know, that little glue.
789
00:39:40,503 --> 00:39:44,068
Because that will work
way better than water. Yeah.
790
00:39:49,063 --> 00:39:51,398
How skinny is that?
791
00:39:51,423 --> 00:39:53,158
This is a very small one.
792
00:39:55,503 --> 00:39:57,188
This one feels bad.
793
00:39:58,503 --> 00:39:59,707
I'm very stressed.
794
00:40:03,652 --> 00:40:05,757
Oh, my God, what's happened?
795
00:40:07,543 --> 00:40:10,118
Nah! What's happened?
796
00:40:11,393 --> 00:40:12,818
It's come undone.
797
00:40:12,843 --> 00:40:15,988
Are you kidding? What the hell?
798
00:40:16,013 --> 00:40:17,988
The most important thing
with a spring roll,
799
00:40:18,013 --> 00:40:20,438
you have to seal them cos
when they go into the deep fat fryer
800
00:40:20,463 --> 00:40:23,118
any air bubbles,
any moisture, will burst them.
801
00:40:23,143 --> 00:40:24,908
Oh, they're ruined now anyway,
aren't they?
802
00:40:35,852 --> 00:40:38,348
Oh, man, this is a disastrous.
803
00:40:38,373 --> 00:40:40,178
Ay, J06, what's happening?
804
00:40:40,203 --> 00:40:43,138
I tell you what's happening,
it's all going terribly wrong. Why?
805
00:40:43,163 --> 00:40:45,268
Do you like your spring rolls
puffed up?
806
00:40:45,293 --> 00:40:46,707
SHE LAUGHS
807
00:40:46,732 --> 00:40:48,827
No, I'm not happy with them at all.
808
00:40:52,373 --> 00:40:55,518
EMMA: Ooh, Maura.
809
00:40:55,543 --> 00:40:58,268
I've only got three done.
I've only got three.
810
00:40:58,293 --> 00:41:00,118
Huh?
I've only got three.
811
00:41:00,143 --> 00:41:02,988
But they look great.
They look really good.
812
00:41:03,013 --> 00:41:04,238
Do they?
Yes.
813
00:41:04,263 --> 00:41:05,988
Urghg
814
00:41:06,013 --> 00:41:08,238
How long have we got?
815
00:41:08,263 --> 00:41:10,398
Two minutes now, stars, two minutes.
816
00:41:10,423 --> 00:41:13,548
Oh, my God. I've not done my sauce.
817
00:41:14,902 --> 00:41:16,798
Right, that feels like it's wrong.
818
00:41:16,823 --> 00:41:18,957
(lame on, be'.
Come on, Maura! Come on, Maura!
819
00:41:18,982 --> 00:41:20,188
That's not even thickening.
820
00:41:20,213 --> 00:41:21,798
KELLY: Be calm. just think about it.
821
00:41:21,823 --> 00:41:24,398
EMMA: One minute left, stars.
One minute.
822
00:41:25,463 --> 00:41:27,398
They're all getting one.
823
00:41:27,423 --> 00:41:29,518
Just keep going
and get something out.
824
00:41:31,293 --> 00:41:33,238
Ten seconds.
Ten seconds.
825
00:41:33,263 --> 00:41:34,908
Nine...
826
00:41:34,933 --> 00:41:38,627
BOTH: Eight... seven... six...
five... four...
827
00:41:38,652 --> 00:41:43,627
I'm done.
..three... two... one.
828
00:41:43,652 --> 00:41:44,798
APPLAUSE
829
00:41:44,823 --> 00:41:46,707
How did you make all them?
830
00:41:46,732 --> 00:41:50,627
Oh, my God. Mine all fell apart.
831
00:41:50,652 --> 00:41:52,118
Oh, no. That looks really good.
832
00:41:53,463 --> 00:41:57,757
That was the most stressed
I've been in a long time.
833
00:41:57,782 --> 00:42:00,038
There was meant to be
two spring rolls on each plate,
834
00:42:00,063 --> 00:42:01,707
I got one on each plate.
835
00:42:01,732 --> 00:42:04,757
I do think they might be
slightly over-seasoned.
836
00:42:04,782 --> 00:42:08,068
Turns out pancakes are really hard.
837
00:42:08,093 --> 00:42:11,678
Filling was fine,
the pancakes were all over the shop.
838
00:42:11,703 --> 00:42:16,238
I did produce more, and as
the old saying goes, more is more.
839
00:42:16,263 --> 00:42:18,398
This is exciting.
840
00:42:18,423 --> 00:42:20,038
Ooh, wow.
841
00:42:22,573 --> 00:42:23,877
That one looks great.
842
00:42:23,902 --> 00:42:28,118
EMMA: 'The gold plate
belongs to Jack's star — Maura.'
843
00:42:28,143 --> 00:42:30,518
The gold plate, they're missing one,
844
00:42:30,543 --> 00:42:34,068
but they got the roll
and the fold perfectly.
845
00:42:36,293 --> 00:42:40,827
For me, on the gold plate,
the spring roll was so salty.
846
00:42:40,852 --> 00:42:41,957
It was unbelievable.
847
00:42:41,982 --> 00:42:46,188
The gold plate looked the part,
fantastic shape,
848
00:42:46,213 --> 00:42:48,348
but that filling in there
really failed for me.
849
00:42:48,373 --> 00:42:49,798
Far too salty.
850
00:42:51,463 --> 00:42:54,348
TOM: 'The green plate
belongs to Judy's star — Joe.'
851
00:42:54,373 --> 00:42:58,877
I'm so impressed that spring rolls
and sweet chilli sauce came out
852
00:42:58,902 --> 00:43:03,678
on both plates, but the green plate,
they actually produced two of them,
853
00:43:03,703 --> 00:43:05,268
which was what was asked.
854
00:43:05,293 --> 00:43:08,118
The green plate did not look like
the spring roll,
855
00:43:08,143 --> 00:43:11,188
but I believe the filling
was perfectly cooked.
856
00:43:11,213 --> 00:43:14,518
It's really oily. It's so oily.
857
00:43:14,543 --> 00:43:17,073
They didn't seal it properly,
let the fat in,
858
00:43:17,098 --> 00:43:19,993
but the flavours were on point.
Superb.
859
00:43:20,018 --> 00:43:21,943
Well, I think
we're all spring rolled out
860
00:43:21,968 --> 00:43:23,863
and I think now we should just vote.
861
00:43:25,328 --> 00:43:27,582
EMMA: 'Whose spring rolls
will reign supreme?
862
00:43:27,607 --> 00:43:30,782
'Maura's gold plate
or Joe's green plate?'
863
00:43:34,328 --> 00:43:38,712
APPLAUSE
864
00:43:38,737 --> 00:43:41,863
Joe and Maura
have done all they can,
865
00:43:41,888 --> 00:43:44,782
but only one of them will have
a place in the grand final.
866
00:43:44,807 --> 00:43:48,553
The chefs have been deliberating
and they've come to a decision.
867
00:43:48,578 --> 00:43:51,712
But before we find out who's safe
and who's leaving the competition,
868
00:43:51,737 --> 00:43:55,353
we need to know whether Judy or jack
have voted to eliminate
869
00:43:55,378 --> 00:43:56,943
their own star.
870
00:43:56,968 --> 00:44:01,393
So, jack, which plate
did you vote for as your favourite?
871
00:44:01,418 --> 00:44:03,423
My favourite plate was the gold.
872
00:44:03,448 --> 00:44:06,193
I can tell you,
as she is telling you,
873
00:44:06,218 --> 00:44:08,353
the gold plate was Maura's.
874
00:44:08,378 --> 00:44:11,143
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
875
00:44:11,168 --> 00:44:14,753
Well, Judy, which plate
did you vote for?
876
00:44:14,778 --> 00:44:16,553
Green.
877
00:44:16,578 --> 00:44:22,863
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
878
00:44:22,888 --> 00:44:24,832
Well, that's a relief, isn't it?
879
00:44:26,807 --> 00:44:29,223
But, as always,
there are six more votes
880
00:44:29,248 --> 00:44:32,582
that make up the final result
and I can reveal,
881
00:44:32,607 --> 00:44:36,753
the winner of the Cook Off and
going through to the final, is...
882
00:44:48,687 --> 00:44:49,753
"Joe.
883
00:44:49,778 --> 00:44:55,393
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
884
00:44:55,418 --> 00:44:58,712
See, I told ya. Aw, well done.
885
00:44:58,737 --> 00:45:00,753
APPLAUSE
886
00:45:00,778 --> 00:45:06,423
joe, well done.
Your face was an absolute picture.
887
00:45:06,448 --> 00:45:08,032
I think it's fair to say,
888
00:45:08,057 --> 00:45:10,273
you did not expect that at all,
did you?
889
00:45:10,298 --> 00:45:11,753
No, I didn't.
890
00:45:11,778 --> 00:45:13,582
I thought Maura's looked amazing.
891
00:45:13,607 --> 00:45:15,353
I thought she'd done me there,
I really did.
892
00:45:15,378 --> 00:45:17,303
Maura, it is such a shame
to lose you at this point
893
00:45:17,328 --> 00:45:18,912
because every step
of the competition
894
00:45:18,937 --> 00:45:20,553
you have gone from strength
to strength.
895
00:45:20,578 --> 00:45:23,782
And you've made an amazing team,
it's been really lovely to watch.
896
00:45:23,807 --> 00:45:24,943
Have you had a good time?
897
00:45:24,968 --> 00:45:27,662
Yeah, it was a lot of fun,
to be fair. It was.
898
00:45:27,687 --> 00:45:29,832
JACK CHUCKLES
He's not saying anything, but...
899
00:45:29,857 --> 00:45:31,553
LAUGHTER
900
00:45:31,578 --> 00:45:34,303
Maura's been an amazing student.
We've just had a great time.
901
00:45:34,328 --> 00:45:35,582
And well done, Joe.
902
00:45:35,607 --> 00:45:38,423
And also, really well done, Judy,
you're a great mentor.
903
00:45:38,448 --> 00:45:40,832
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
904
00:45:40,857 --> 00:45:42,993
That's it from us,
make sure you join us next week
905
00:45:43,018 --> 00:45:44,943
for the grand final.
906
00:45:44,968 --> 00:45:49,193
Yes, either Josie Gibson,
Dr Ranj, or Joe Wilkinson
907
00:45:49,218 --> 00:45:51,633
will be crowned
Cooking With The Stars champion.
908
00:45:51,658 --> 00:45:53,553
But, to do it,
they'll need to use every skill
909
00:45:53,578 --> 00:45:55,393
they've learnt here in our kitchen.
910
00:45:55,418 --> 00:45:56,943
I can't wait,
it's gonna be a good 'un!
911
00:45:56,968 --> 00:45:58,553
It's gonna be huge!
We will see you then.
912
00:45:58,578 --> 00:45:59,553
Good night.
Good bye.
913
00:45:59,578 --> 00:46:02,753
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
