''MasterChef'' is a television competitive cooking show franchise created by Franc Roddam, which originated with the UK version in July 1990. The format was revived and updated for the BBC in February 2005 by executive producers Franc Roddam and John Silver and series producer Karen Ross. In 2009 the format was re-developed in Australia where it was transformed into the current iteration of the program. The success of the Australian re-development then led to the international success of the format. The show's format has been exported around the world under the same ''MasterChef'' logo, and is now produced in more than 40 countries and airs in at least 200 territories. The format has appeared in four major versions: the main ''MasterChef'' series, ''MasterChef: The Professionals'' for professional working chefs, ''Celebrity MasterChef'' featuring well known celebrities as the contestants and ''Junior MasterChef'', a version created and adapted for children, which was first developed in 1994 and has also proliferated to other countries outside the UK in recent years. In 2012, Australia created the fifth version called ''MasterChef All-Stars'', for former contestants to raise money for charity. ''MasterChef Australia'' is the most watched television series in Australia,〔(Hit show MasterChef going through the roof )〕 with the season 2 finale being the third most watched show in Australian television history. ''MasterChef Australia'' also won the award for 'Most Popular Reality Program' at the 2010 Logie Awards. Many other countries also broadcast the Australian version, either dubbed or with subtitles in the local language. The revived format is sold internationally by production company, Shine Group. == International versions == Current and upcoming versions include: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MasterChef」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
