Celebrity MasterChef eliminates two contestants in the rescheduled double episode, with Gregg Wallace and John Torode choosing their final five.

At the end of the first episode, the judges said goodbye to Jimmy. The first episode began with none other than TV cooking legend Mary Berry turning up and observing as everyone had a different one of her recipes to replicate. Thankfully for her, her experiment paid off. The comments were a lot more mixed this time around. In the second episode, the last of the semi-finals, the remaining six celebrities had to make the ultimate comfort food dish for restaurant critic Grace Dent, who told them their meals had to combine the warmth and reassurance of home-cooked meals with the finesse of a professional dinner. On the other hand, Lisa and Danny sailed through to the next round, and Faye got through on Gregg's love of her coronation chicken.

The semi-final of the BBC One cooking competition had been delayed following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

In advance of the episode, a message was also posted to the official Celebrity MasterChef social media pages. @Gmackematix said: "The Queen was of the old-school stiff upper lip generation. The first episode includes a challenge inspired by Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, and was filmed before last week's sad news. It was filmed ages ago and its a tribute to the queen anyway? The timing of the latest episode of Celebrity MasterChef was not lost on viewers as the remaining celebrities battled it out in the semi-final. A continuity announcement prior to the show airing explained that the episode was filmed months before Her Majesty's death. Doesn’t seem in the best taste right now.” @tafallen commented: "Hmm, tonight's first episode of Celeb MasterChef did not age well. @MultiHuns tweeted: "Watching #MasterChef with the folks and it's all about the Queen. The first episode saw none other than TV cooking legend Mary Berry turning up to help observes as each celebrity was given one of her recipes to replicate. Are we still allowed to celebrate the Jubilee? The timing! This meant that two episodes of the cooking competition aired last night.
