Summary: It's the final night of the competition in Cardiff and tonight's host Suzanne is pinning her hopes on an evening of sophistication and fine French cuisine.

Philippines-born Sylvian's dishes are an East-meets-West affair starting with Japanese gyoza followed by a Sumatran rendang and ending with a very British sticky toffee pudding. But dessert turns out to be sticky in more ways than one; cue tears before bedtime from the host.

Summary: This week's competition is in and around Aberdeen where it's the turn of comedy promoter Naz to host. If Naz is to stand a chance of winning the grand, he has to placate his guests, nearly all of whom he has managed to offend over the week. And to add to his challenge, Naz is by his own admission not the greatest cook.
