Celebrity MasterChef sparks fix row as fans slam BBC for 'appalling and disgusting' elimination and beloved star misses out on place in finale

  • Celebrity MasterChef fans were left fuming on Wednesday night as Harry Aikines-Aryeetey missed out on a place in the final despite Craig Doyle making a huge mistake.

    The latest episode of the BBC show saw Gladiator Harry, presenter Craig, Strictly pro Vito Coppola and actor Rochenda Sandall battle it out for a spot i n the top three, with the group tasked with making a dish inspired by someone special to them. 

    While Harry, 36, rustled up an apple and plum in tribute to his mum, Craig, 53, opted for a lemon tart with four meringues dedicated to his four children - however, the This Morning star made a major error with his recipe.

    During his cooking process, Craig accidentally put salt on his dessert instead of sugar, with the Irish star later noting that he'd 'made peace' with being eliminated and had even booked himself an afternoon golf session.

    However, despite the mistake, hosts John Torode and Gregg Wallace opted to s end Harry home, leaving Craig and the viewers at home stunned - and the later were far from impressed.

    Harry Aikines-Aryeetey was shockingly given the boot by John Torode and Gregg Wallace

    Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, fans were quick to express their frustration at the decision, with some calling it a 'fix', with another 'disgusted' person  branding the choice a 'appalling'.

    They wrote: '#CelebrityMasterchef I'm sorry….but that's a bloody disgrace â€Â" so you can m ake a MASSIVE mistake and put salt over your food and not sugar but still get through. I feel so sorry for @HarryAA100m˜­ â€Â" he should've gone through. I'm disgusted with this appalling decision.' 

    The same angry viewer added: '@JohnTorode1 why on earth did you save Craig when he put SALT on his desert and not SUGAR?? I'm sorry, but this is the worst decision you and Gregg have EVER made. It stinks of a FIX.'

    Others penned: 'I honestly can't understand how Craig got saved.'

    'So wait, Harry gets sent home for cooking not 1 but 3 different desserts and Craig gets saved for dousing salt on his and torching it??

    'Someone please explain to me. He sprinkles salt all over his dessert, one major feck up imo, but still goes through to the next round! Whilst the other contestant presented a beautiful array of puddings, all very tast y by all accounts, gets the elbow! Wtaf!'

    'Your man put salt on top of his dessert and they got rid of Harry. Absolute fix that.'

    'At this stage of the Masterchef competition, if you do such a silly thing as put salt on your dessert that should've been an elimination. Harry's desserts were a bit mismatched but there was nothing wrong with them. He should've stayed.'
