Mo and Sara win cooking challenge

Mo and Sara looked ecstatic as Rex announced them as the outright winners of the cooking challenge this evening, hugging as they were praised for their perfectly cooked meal.

As the elected Head Chef, Rex had to teach the group, divided into pairs, how to make Steak Béarnaise and a blueberry soufflé. He was provided with ingredients but no recipe.

The three sets of pairs all presented their meals to the Head Chef, who tasted each in turn. As he sampled the dishes, Rex told Sara and Mohamed that he was "very impressed", saying their steak was "cooked perfectly" and was "well-seasoned".

When he came to Darnell and Kat, who performed a dance to try and gain bonus points, Rex was less complimentary. Upon viewing their mashed potato, he told them: "It's extremely lumpy. It looks like it's got foreign objects in there." When he mentioned that there was no salt on their green beans, Kat remarked: "It's the healthy option!"

Mikey and Rachel were last to be judged. They told Rex that they had cooked their steak rare because they knew he liked it that way, but he later told them that it was pretty much blue. "Presentation's a little bit sloppy," he added.

As Rex was asked to announce the winning pair, he told the expectant housemates: "Without any shadow of a doubt. There was no competition, it outshone the other food by miles."

Winners Mo and Sara were then told by Big Brother that they would receive their reward later.
