Matt Preston’s live score service
For foodies the Masterchef grand final is the equivalent of the NRL or AFL grand final for sports fans. So it was an unfortunate coincidence that the food producer’s night of nights – the Delicious magazine Produce Awards – clashed with the Ten show’s last episode last night.
Luckily NewsLifeMedia had hired Masterchef judge Matt Preston as the MC for the evening, and the food critic was on hand to give live score updates in the nail-biting finale.

This could become the time where the Masterchef judges end up not just at the judging table for the show for that day but having a busy day MCing food events and engaging in other food activities before they judge the contestants’ dishes.
