Remi came out on top once again, after making no mistakes and keeping up with all the orders.

Remi opted for rice burgers with spicy chicken and although the judges were impressed with the flavours of her dish, they were let down by not being able to eat it and ending up in a mess.
This led to her being eliminated, leaving viewers disagreeing with the judges and fuming at the injustice.
Taking Twitter, one said: "Aw @RemiBurgz shouldn’t have gone! By far the best in the first two challenges."
Another wrote: "One bad shaped burger and she's gone? Meanwhile...Terry [is a] disaster. Come on #CelebrityMasterChef."
A third penned: "Nonsense judging there, as per, on #MasterChef #celebritymasterchef #bbcmasterchef.";
A fourth added: "This series of #celebritymasterchef is destroying me. First Dani and now Remi. Gutted. They were both superstars."
A fifth tweeted: "That was so unfair. Remi did much better #celebritymasterchef."
A sixth commented: "Robbed Remi #celebritymasterchef."
Before leaving the show, Remi said: "I'm sad to go, but I really really enjoyed this experience and I definitely enjoy cooking more."
After getting her start at south London community radio station Reprezent, Remi went on to become the official DJ for Shaybo, the MOBO-nominated rapper.
