North West England: Judging

The guest judge, actress Jane Horrocks, helps the judging panel decide the winner for north west England. There are dishes celebrating Paddington, Bob the Builder, and Jack and Jill.

The two highest-scoring chefs from north west England must go head-to-head and cook their six-course menus again. Will they take on board their veteran’s advice as they serve up their dishes to the new panel of judges?

They need to impress Michelin-starred chef Marcus Wareing, chef and restaurateur Nisha Katona, and comedian and food podcaster Ed Gamble. There’s also guest judge Jane Horrocks, the award-winning actress and voice of beloved animated characters such as Babs from Chicken Run. How will she judge dishes inspired by British animation and illustration and Paddington’s 65th birthday?

Only one of the chefs will triumph and go through to represent north west England at the national finals.
