It's finals week on Great British Menu as the eight regional champions battle for a chance to cook at a glorious banquet marking the centenary of the Women's Institute, at London's historic Draper's Hall.

Each day, the chefs must cook one of their four courses again to impress not only the judges Matthew Fort, Oliver Peyton and Prue Leith, but also guest judges who know the exacting standards of the WI, as well as their fellow chefs who will also be marking the dishes.

The best dishes will be selected for the judges' shortlist, putting them in contention for a place on the banquet menu. But this year, instead of the three top-scoring dishes being guaranteed a place on the shortlist, only those that are deemed perfect will make the grade. So each day there may only be two dishes that make the judges shortlist, or perhaps only one.

The final menu will be chosen by the judges from the dishes that have been shortlisted, so to be in with a chance of cooking at the banquet, the chefs must have secured a place on the judge's shortlist at least once.

It's main course day, the halfway point in finals week, and those chefs who have yet to get a dish on the shortlist are feeling the heat. With only dishes judged to be perfect in with a chance at reaching the WI banquet, the standards are higher than ever before. After all eight dishes are cooked and the scores are in, how many chefs have made the grade?
