Squoosh! Looks who is back for Masterchef Professionals!

[TheSpectreOfMorningtonCrescent]

It's only Marcus Wareing. Starts next week. Are we ready?

Poor Andi. He does seem like a genuinely nice guy. And a single dad.

He's nice but not as nice as last night's Darren.

I'd love for Marcus to hand me a glass of champagne.

Well the good news is they cook for top chefs, bad news the Gregg is back. Oh and they go to a whack job innovative restaurant.

I wonder how being on the show affects the chefs restaurants. Have just been googling Scott's restaurant!

Where does Scott work? I do like him a lot, and he's improved every week.

Squoosh, you're not thinking about champagne in Marcus' hand...

You're right Thurlow.

I'm thinking about my naked self in Marcus' hands. As he lays me down in a bed of honeycomb and pannacotta.......

Pannacotta would be somewhat messy. Only achievable at a hotel, if someone else is washing the sheets.

It would be at Claridge's.

Possibly a Travelodge.

I missed it, just saw the judging but I missed it because I had dinner in Worcestershire's restaurant of the year. I think it's Worcestershire, I'm currently in Malvern. I was given a free amuse bouche of set parmesan cream with balsamic pearls. How Mastercheffy is that?

Scott is a sous chef at www.thegrove.co.uk

I'd like Scott to win. I suspect the Mark from tonight is a bit shy but it comes across as arrogant. If he has a sense of humour, he's doing a good job of hiding it.

So we've got Mark, Mark, Scott, Danilo and Nick left.

On Tuesday they eliminate one more and the remaining four cook for lots of Michelin starred chefs.

On Wednesday they knock out another one and the final three go to Italy.

On Christmas Eve we have the final. Woohoo!

no hugs for the loser from Monica last night - just for Darren then?

Darren was special!

Was watching with DS last night. He pointed out that Mark looks like Mark Jefferson - who is a character in a game called Life is Strange - apparently!

I noticed that too, Mollie - she must have really liked Darren!

I reckon the final three will be the two Marks and Nick.

I think Scott will definitely make the final three. Love that he bested Mark last night.

Not surprised Andi left. He was basically just one big walking nerve.

I doubly glad I told my Mum I'd call them on Christmas morning. It was going to be Christmas Eve and then I'd have missed the final final.

Can't decide whether I want Scott or Danilo to win. (I didn't like Scott initially but then he retweeted me one time [and it wasn't even about him] so he's now right up there.) They both cooked amazing food in their semis so it's hard to choose.

Poor Danilo. The Michelin mafia were pretty scathing about his risotto.

I bet Mark will get rave reviews. Meh.

Disappointed for Nick and Danilo. Robochef doing well. Hope Scott can knock it out of the park.

I'm well 'appy for Scott.

Scott's my favourite now.

I somewhat peripherally know the family who own the Grove. They are lovely, must be good employers. I bet if Scott wins they will properly celebrate him.

GrouchyKiwi which one is Robochef?

Oh I just realised we are watching it recorded about 90 minutes behind!
