Three teams are in the running for supremacy on My Kitchen Rules New Zealand and the trio of pairings will battle it out for a $100,000 prize package.
The semifinal will be broadcast on TV2 tomorrow night, and the final will screen on Tuesday.
What viewers don't know is the contestants finished filming months ago.
To help keep the winners a secret, two endings were filmed so no one, not even the finalists, knows the chosen outcome until the end of Tuesday's 90-minute final.
Spy understands the long wait has been tricky for the contestants.
