Who's on The One Show tonight?

Monica Galetti

Monica Galetti has enjoyed a glittering career as a chef, and goes from strength to strength as a TV personality.

After starting at two-Michelin-star restaurant Le Gavroche in 1999 as a commis chef, she worked her way up to be Michel Roux Jr's senior sous chef, before departing in 2015.

She was the first woman to land a senior role in the kitchens of the prestigious establishment.

Earlier this year, Monica unveiled her own restaurant – called Mere, in Fitzrovia – with her husband David.

Since 2009, she has been a judge on Masterchef: The Professionals, reducing contestants to gibbering wrecks with her trademark uncompromising high standards.

This year, she also presented the six-part BBC show Amazing Hotels alongside journalist and food critic Giles Coren.

Marcus Wareing

Marcus Wareing is a world-leading chef and restaurateur who has been a Masterchef: The Professionals judge since 2014.

He started working in the food industry when he was just 11, packing potatoes and helping his dad with deliveries.

The 47-year-old met Gordon Ramsay when working for Albert Roux at Le Gavroche, and went on to become the foul-mouthed Scot's sous chef and protege – working with him for 15 years.

Marcus is now the Chef Patron at the two-Michelin-starred Marcus in Knightsbridge, and also runs The Gilbert Scott at the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel and Tredwells in the West End.
