Well, that was better than I expected. I didn't know any of the contestants but the new kitchen, presenter and format caught my attention.

JT was as good as ever - why did they sack him? - and Grace Dent was a breath of fresh air.

Looking forward to tonight's episode now.

Yeah it was an enjoyable episode, right person went.
JT seems to have taken on Gregs persona with some odd voices and a bit more enthusiatic, he always used to play the serious guy.
Zero idea of who the 'celebs' were though (vageuly recognised the girl from Coro), we wondered if Masterchef was/is a bit tainted and celebs have distanced themselves a bit ? To me, it would be something they would quite like to be on otherwise.

Really enjoying this series, John and Grace are settling in nicely and there is some surprisingly good cooking going on!

I cant' see how it can be tainted, I can imagine it's like Strictly Come Dancing in that it's a big investment in time.

Race Across The World is a it little different, not many would fancy the idea of weeks away travelling, sleeping on buses or in hostels etc.
