MasterChef: Back To Win is inching closer and closer to revealing a winner. Now, with the top 7 chefs heading into the show’s final days, Judge Andy Allen confirms a long-suspected fan theory.
In an interview with TV Tonight, Allen confirmed that MasterChef Australia shoots multiple endings. The strategy is adopted to confuse fans and to prevent accurate leaks and spoilers from getting out.
“Yes, we still do multiple endings … it’s the only way to get a true winner,” he said.
“You can try and contain the 200 people, I suppose, with friends, family, crew, if you wanted to gamble it. But I think there is so much on the line with this show, the last thing anyone wants is for a production that goes for six months, airs for three months (and then gets spoiled),” Allen continued.
While this strategy has confirmed usage in My Kitchen Rules in 2016, this is the first time it’s been confirmed for this season of MasterChef. When TV Tonight asked Allen to confirm if this means that judges offer contestants fake scores for the sake of the cameras, Allen was more tight-lipped.
“If you want to put it that way…” he told TV Tonight.
Well, there you have it. We don’t know what the players know when these endings are being filmed. However, it’s officially confirmed that MasterChef Australia does film “multiple” endings to produce footage that confuses fans. At least for this season.
Could this also mean that the leaked poster currently sending fans in a tizzy on Facebook is a deliberate trick to fool fans? Sportsbet has placed the most odds on Laura to win, with Callum second and Jamie last. But, as any MasterChef Australia fan will tell you, in the final days of the competition are anyone’s game.
The only way to find out who will win 2025’s blockbuster season will be to keep tuning into MasterChef: Back To Win.
MasterChef Australia airs on Sunday at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 10 and 10Play.
