This will be the last time I watch MasterChef, how rigged was tonight’s final show … appalling. Love both contestants but to say Sarah’s final dish after all the positive comments and she get 7 points is rigged. Very annoying! We put up with the 3 new hosts screaming most of the season and this happens. Over it!
