Ainsley's National Trust Cook Off

The programme brings together Ainsley with chefs Briony May Williams and Gaz Oakley for a culinary face‑off set against the backdrop of Tyntesfield in Somerset. The three personalities meet at the estate, ready to see which of them can rise to the day’s cooking challenge. During the episode the trio is tasked with creating and preparing the “Dish of the Day”. Each chef puts their own style on the brief, and the show follows the steps they take as they devise, assemble and finally cook their respective plates. The core of the broadcast centres on the competition itself – a head‑to‑head where Briony May Williams and Gaz Oakley each aim to outdo the other while Ainsley oversees the proceedings. Viewers get a clear view of the process, from the initial concept through to the finished dish. All of the action unfolds within the grounds of Tyntesfield, Somerset, providing a consistent setting for the challenge. By the end of the episode, the audience has seen how the three cooks approached the brief and which of them managed to deliver the winning Dish of the Day.
