Episode 16
It's the semi-finals. The past five weeks have seen the chefs whittled down to the best eight. Now, it's all about survival as they battle for a place in the last six.
Limiting food waste should be at the forefront of every chef's mind, so first up, the semi-finalists will be asked to create one dish which embraces either 'root-to-shoot' or 'nose-to-tail' eating. The professionals will choose one ingredient and serve it in as many innovative and exciting ways as they can, showing total respect for the produce selected.
The judges will then pick the contestants worthy of going straight through to the next round, leaving the others to face an invention test that will have them cooking for their MasterChef lives. Each professional will need to pick a box, under which lies a mystery seafood ingredient. Using the larder to complement it, they will need to create a dish that showcases and celebrates that ingredient.
The two who fail to hit the high notes will be sent home, leaving the rest with a one in six chance of becoming this year's champion.

The Gilded Age
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of huge fortunes made and lost, and the rise of disparity between old money and new.
Against this backdrop of change, the story begins in 1882 — introducing young Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Union general, who moves into the New York City home of her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook. Accompanied by Peggy Scott, an accomplished African-American woman, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell.
In this exciting new world that is on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?
