The 17th series of the popular cooking show started on Tuesday (February 1) night, where the winner of the whole series gets to serve their menu at a prestigious banquet.
It kicked off with the Central region heats, featuring four incredibly talented chefs, two of which have roots in Nottinghamshire.
