Could You Identify all These Fish? | MasterChef Australia

Today's elimination is around one ingredient that puts fear in an awful lot of home cooks. Today's elimination is all about fish. Georgia, you went from terror to elation. Why? Seafood's a huge part of my family and I've been around fish and cooking fish and filleting fish and catching fish since I was teeny tiny and it's what I love to eat. I love seafood, it's my favorite. Right, this elimination we've fought over three rounds. That gives you three chances to save yourself. The first round couldn't be simpler. Behind us is a table containing 20 of the most popular fish in Australia. You've just got to identify them correctly. Jeez, if it could be any worse, I don't know how it's possible. The first five contestants to incorrectly name a fish will go into the next round and they'll be one step closer to elimination. I'm reasonably confident with naming fish but if the fish that I can correctly identify are not on that table then I have no idea what I'm doing today. Right, so here are the fish that you have to choose from. There's a few up there that I know but there's more that I don't recognize and ones that I do. I'm going to be in trouble. Right, let's get round one underway. Marcus, come forward, walk the line, pick a fish and name it. I'm seeing this big lot of fish and I'm looking and I'm wondering and I'm seeing some familiar faces and I'm like, well, I reckon I know you. This one here, what is it? Sardine. Marcus, it is a sardine. Step back into line. The sardine is correct. I survived to live another day. Right, next up, Ka, you look terrified. You familiar? You're looking at them going, yep, know that, know that, know that. There's certainly a couple of fish on the table that you could confuse with something else, there's no doubt about it. I'm not feeling confident at all and I see a flat fish and I'm like, I think I know it. This one here, name it. Flounder. You're the first into the second round of the elimination. I'm really disappointed because I am one step closer to being eliminated now. Georgia, come on, that's the fish you want to name? Yes, please. Confident? Yeah. Like that, what is it? It's a flathead. Of course it is, well done. Christina, your turn to name the fish. So this fish here? It's a snapper. That is a snapper, well done. Right, Jessica, this big fella here? Yeah. What is it? That's a red emperor. Bangle, absolutely right, well done. Ashley, you're next. I'm going to go with that one and I think it's a garfish. Ashley, congratulations. Reynolds, your turn. I'm looking at the fish and it's really confusing. I don't even recognize some of these. Tell us what it is. Rainbow trout. There are a lot of trout, aren't there? Brook trout, brown trout, rainbow trout. This one is a rainbow. Amy, up you come. There's a lot of correctly named fish and a lot of fish are leaving the table, leaving me with not much choice. I'm just putting it out there, when we put all these fish up, there were two that I was a little bit unsure of and they're still there. I'm gonna go with this one. What is it? It is a salmon. You're right. Right, that's one round done. Back to Marcus, aren't we? I'm looking at this big lineup of fish and I think I've eaten at least one of you once. Which one you are, I don't know. I'm gonna try this one. King George Whiting. Sorry mate, it's incorrect. Well, that's pretty disappointing. Round two, definitely the last place I want to be. Georgia. King George Whiting. Well done, Georgia, you're good. All right, Christina. Pick this one. Tell me what it is. It's a blue eye. You're right. Right guys, pressure's on now. There's only 11 fish left. Jessica, you're next. It's definitely starting to get harder. The fish that I know are definitely dwindling. What is it, Jessica? Asian trout. Sorry, Jessica, you're wrong. This is not good. This means that I'm going through to the second round. Very, very disappointing. Ashley. I'm starting to feel pretty flustered. There's quite a few less than the last time and there's definitely not many there that I know. Um, I'm not sure of any of them, but I'm going to go for this one and I think it's a dory. I need more information, please. Um, a John Dory. Sorry, Ashley, not a John Dory. I am feeling devastated. Now I'm going to have to face another round of fish and that doesn't feel great at all. So this is a pivotal moment, isn't it? One more person. If you get it wrong, that's it. Second round, the rest of you are safe. So a lot of pressure. Reynolds. I'm just thinking, okay, this is it. There's got to be a fish that I know. I really don't want to go into round two. I've got to get this name right. What is it? John Dory. You lucky man. You're absolutely right. Come on, Amy. Come on, you can do it. Just name a fish. That's all you have to do. What is it? Is it a barramundi? Nine fish in one spot that you don't want. Georgia. I'm definitely starting to feel the pressure now, but I still have faith in myself that I can correctly identify another fish. I got through this one, so I'm going to go with this one. Okay. Two people already got out of this. What is this fish? It's a sole fish. You called it a sole fish? Yeah. I'm sorry to say that's wrong too. Oh, crap. This is a mirror dory, sometimes known as a silver dory. Georgia, I'm sorry. That's okay. You take the last place. Thank you. I should have gone with the other one. Christina, Reynolds, Amy, congratulations. You're safe. Get up to the balcony. I can't believe I survived. I'm really happy. I'm stoked. And it's just absolutely...
