Britain's Best Home Cook - Season 2
Season 2
Best Home Cook
Episodes
Episode 1
Claudia Winkleman hosts the return of the competition in which 10 home cooks move into a shared house and compete in a series of weekly challenges designed to demonstrate their flair, skill and creativity. There is also a new addition to the judging line-up as Michelin-starred chef Angela Hartnett joins home cooking queen Mary Berry and produce expert Chris Bavin. For their first two challenges, the cooks have to come up with their ultimate pasta dinner and a dish based on a piece of fruit.
Episode 2
The nine home cooks whip up their ultimate meringue desserts, then rustle up some amazing vegetable dishes. The weakest cooks will then face Angela's dreaded eliminator recipe.
Episode 3
The remaining eight home cooks prepare their ultimate brunches for the judges and tackle a surprisingly tricky rustle-up challenge.
Episode 4
The remaining seven cooks bake their ultimate children's birthday cakes.
Episode 5
The remaining six cooks prepare dishes for an ultimate curry night feast comprising two vegetable dishes, traditional bread and a fried snack. Two cooks take risks by using ingredients the judges haven't tasted in curries before. Will their risks pay off?
Episode 6
It's the quarter final of Best Home Cook and the remaining six home cooks are still reeling from the fact that last week no one was sent home.
Now they're in for another surprise, as for one week only the Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge has joined the judging line-up in Angela Hartnett's place.
Episode 7
The semi-finalists must impress the judges with their ultimate drinks party canapes before improvising with a scary store cupboard staple. Who will make the final?
Episode 8
Claudia Winkleman presents the final, which sees the last three contestants rising to the challenge. To shake things up, however, the judges present their tasks in a different order to normal. Chris Bavin's `rustle up" comes first, after which it's on to another of Angela Hartnett's tricky recipes in the eliminator. Sadly, one of the hopefuls will then receive their marching orders, leaving the other two to take on Mary Berry's challenge - a full three-course meal which will secure one of them the title.

Peacemaker
The series will explore the origins of the Peacemaker, a man who believes in peace at any cost - no matter how many people he has to kill to get it.
The Ministry of Time
The Ministry of Time, a newly established government department, is gathering ‘expats' from across history in an experiment to test the viability of time-travel. Commander Graham Gore (an officer on Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 Arctic expedition) is one such figure rescued from certain death – alongside an army captain from the fields of the Somme, a plague victim from the 1600s, a widow from revolutionary France, and a soldier from the seventeenth century.
The expats are placed with 21st century liaisons, known as 'bridges', in unlikely flatshares. Gore has to learn about contemporary life from scratch: from air travel to industrial warfare, from feminism to Spotify, from cinema to indoor plumbing; and he must negotiate cohabiting with the ambitious modern woman who works as his bridge. After an awkward beginning, the pair start to find pleasure and comfort in each other's company, developing a relationship that is simultaneously tender, intense and profoundly unprofessional; and the expats, adrift in a new era, form friendships that ground and support them in the lonely 21st century, where they have outlived everyone they ever knew and loved.
When a deeper conspiracy at the Ministry begins to reveal itself, the bridge must reckon with what she does next. Will she save or sacrifice the exiled misfits she has come to care for so deeply?
