A wine merchant from Bristol is set to appear in tonight's MasterChef episode, as the competition plows on into its fourth heats week. This year, judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace are mixing things up by introducing a whole new set of challenges that the passionate amateurs must complete to progress in the competition.
One of the 45 talented home cooks being put through the competition is 31-year-old Oli, who is currently living in Walthamstow, London. Oli was born in Bristol, but grew up in Keynsham and has lived in Canada and the UAE.
Oli's inspiration for his dishes comes from his Southern Mediterranean roots, as he is of Italian heritage. Tonight's episode will see Oli and nine other cooks arrive with both their dreams and ingredients ready for their first test, the Audition Round.
