Craig Doyle - TV & Radio Presenter
“The first time I walked into the iconic kitchen, it was like stepping into the television - loved it. Then cooking a meal from my memories of me Dad, liver and onions. I didn’t care if the lads liked it or not, I was just so happy to do something to remember my Dad who loved cooking and would have been so proud of me cooking on the show.”
“I have always used cooking as a way of escaping stress and my own head when things get too busy in there. I have terrible problems focusing and concentrating, but in the kitchen I go into a really calm happy place. Opening that place up to judgement and criticism makes me nervous.”
“I didn't dare think about making the Finals, but that darn kitchen is addictive. You just want more and more - so making it to the end is just amazing. To be honest I’ve forgotten what life was life before MasterChef. It’s like - this is what I do now - I cook for a bald guy and an Aussie chap!”
