John Burton Race and Angela Hartnett oversee the remaining six candidates preparing chocolate mousse as the award-winning chefs step up their search to find a protege for Friday's final. The two tutors also demonstrate the desserts they expect to be prepared in front of food critics at the end of the week, before having to send one of the students home. It was Angela's turn to be disappointed in one of her most consistent performers, who let her down when making the relatively simple Chocolate mousse. Then it was time to learn to make the dessert course for the final menu, before two more contestants headed home.
