MasterChef‘s Matt Preston appeared on The Circle yesterday and made some interesting comments about the Immunity Pin which has been a feature of the show’s 2nd and 3rd seasons.

“The Immunity pin has been a really interesting one this year, because we changed it last year, it was getting too hard to win,” he said.

“The idea was to try and level the playing field, but I don’t think it’s quite worked. It’s an interesting challenge. There’s been a lot of conversation about Eamon Sullivan coming on, who won Celebrity MasterChef who is an amazing cook and whether you can go from Eamon won week to Teage Ezard who’s the amazing Melbourne chef after?”

He also said the Grand Final announcement would be live and has a big surprise in store.

  1. Glad to read above so many peopel having the same issues with the show this season.

    1. the immunity challenges are a joke. Danni did not go up against a chef let alone a professional cook, and in Ellie’s challenge it was pretty obvious the chef allowed her to win (frankly it was embarressing for her that she did not notice).

    2. It Really looks like certain contestants are being pushed ahead by the producers. How long did Sun stay in the competition whilst never cooking a single remarkable dish? She did talk to camera a lot though and they sure love that!

    3. When George told Cleo to “set aside” the dish she was cooking out of turn he should have said “restart it” and not given her the impression she could come back to it. Poor communication.

    Seriously the show has become so gimicky and strategy oriented there is little about cooking skill left. They cannot keep saying these are some of the best cooks in the country, these are just lucky people who got the right challenge on the right night or who are loved by the producers.

    I doubt the show has many seasons left at this rate.
