Bake Off Crème de la Crème

As the competition reaches the semi-final stage, Tom Kerridge welcomes back Liam's team from the armed forces, the supermarket inventors led by James and Sajeela's Park Lane boys. In the Miniatures Challenge, the teams must once again up their game as the judges set one of the sternest tests of a pastry chef's skill, breakfast pastries. With only three hours to make 144 perfect pastries, there is no margin for error. Then, for the Showpiece Challenge, the teams must construct large and elaborate chocolate containers filled with three different types of confectionery: dipped chocolates, nougat and pÔte de fruits. The teams' designs take inspiration from the world of showbusiness, the far east and a family love story, but which will find favour with the formidable judging panel?
