Masterchef 2022 winner: Eddie Scott crowned as champion in dramatic final episode

Eddie Scott has been crowned the champion of Masterchef 2022. The 30-year-old from the Midlands saw off competition from fellow finalists Pookie, 45, and Radha, 23, to lift the coveted trophy after six gruelling weeks of cooking.

The marine pilot has been a popular contestant throughout the series, with viewers describing him as "adorable". His likeability is also matched by his cooking skills, as he was described by judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace as a "culinary powerhouse" and a "future great chef" after serving up three jaw-dropping dishes in Thursday night's final.

45 chefs had entered the Masterchef kitchen in March, but this number was whittled down to three after a month and a half of inspired dishes and dramatic challenges. Wednesday night's episode even saw Gordon Ramsay make his debut on the show, which you can read more about here.
