A drawn-out competitive version of [[Cooking It]], basically. Angela Hartnett and John Burton Race scour the country for terrible amateur cooks, each picking out the very worst for the other to train up at "cookery boot camp" (except - ho ho - the producers then switch the teams around so the chefs end up saddled with their ''own'' selection of the worst). At the end, the surviving amateurs should be fractionally less incompetent than they were to start with, whereupon they face the traditional Faking/Cooking It pass-yourself-off-as-a-pro challenge. | A drawn-out competitive version of [[Cooking It]], basically.
