Everybody’s talking about… MasterChef: The Professionals

Grumpy Marcus Wareing taking over from Michel Roux Jr in Masterchef: The Professionals. The Guardian muses that his ‘stern manner could suck all the joy out of the best of the MasterChefs’.

Wareing was once known as Gordon Ramsey’s protege and is stepping in in place of Roux after a fall out with the BBC over his commercial interests.

Is it just us, or will it just not be the same with the old silver fox Michel Roux? At least terrifying Monica will still be there.

Or switch over for…

  • Celebrity Masterchef (BBC1, 8pm) Beef fillets and apple crumbles as far as the eye can see 
  • The Blues Brothers (RTÉ Two, 11.40pm) Jake and Elwood being deadly
  • Britain’s Benefits Tenants (Ch 4, 9pm) Looks at the work of agencies dealing with difficult tenants
  • The Good Wife (RTÉ One, 11.15pm) This show just keeps getting better and better

Remember Zig and Zag’s amazing take on Eamon Dunphy and Johnny Giles?
