Take a look at the first promo for MasterChef, series 7.

EXCLUSIVE: Your first look at the brand new season of Ten’s MasterChef is here, and it’s enough to give you goosebumps.

Judging by the sneak peek, the seventh series of one of Australia’s longest-running reality TV shows looks set to be an intense one. “Show us honesty, show us integrity, show us their dream, and push every single day that they’re in here,” George Calombaris says of what he’s expecting this year.

Matt Preston adds: “You have to have humility, you have to have self-belief. The belief that they can achieve amazing things.”

Third amigo Gary Mehigan is also back, along with a swag of guest judges including world-renowned chef Shannon Bennett, who will be in the kitchen each week guiding contestants.

MasterChef Australia 2014 proved to be the comeback kid for Ten, with ratings jumping more than 13 per cent compared to 2013. The show averaged around 900,000 viewers per episode.

Preston, Calombaris and Mehigan have hand-picked this year’s Top 24 again, travelling the country to source our best amateur cooks.

The 2015 season of MasterChef Australia is set to debut after Easter.
