More than just desserts

HOW about this for a roll of honour? Simon Wood, Jane Devonshire, Saliha Mahmood-Ahmed, Kenny Tutt, Irini Tzortzoglou, Thomas Frake, Tom Rhodes, Eddie Scott, Chariya Khattiyot and Brin Pirathapan.

Pretty impressive, right?

Unless, that is, you're looking at those names, scratching your head and thinking: "Sorry, am I meant to know who these people are ..? " I wouldn't entirely blame you if you were.

Wining a series of MASTERCHEF, which is actually what each of them has done (those are the last 10 champions - did you guess ..? ) and which someone else is about to do tonight (BBC1, 8pm), is obviously an absolute thrill for whoever does so. But it's not like winning, say, Big Brother or Love Island or any of that kind of rubbish.
