AN e-commerce manager will be in the running to win a holiday anywhere in the world when she appears in the final of the BBC's Masterchef series tonight.
Kaia England, 33, who lives in Beaconsfield, has won through to the final after wowing judges, including zany chef Gary Rhodes, with her earlier dishes.
She said that Gary Rhodes was much the same in the flesh as on the television.
The final was filmed earlier this year, but Kaia will not be drawn as to the final result.
She said: "Cooking is a passion for me nowadays but it has not always been. I'm from mid-west America and my exposure to fine food there was limited.
"Travelling to Europe had an influence and I first got into it when I was in my mid to late 20s.
"One of my cousins is married to a chef and we started to go to his restaurant when we moved over here.
