MasterChef's Alvin Quah on lying, cheating and the betrayal that taught him what loyalty really costs.

Krissy and her friend Alvin Quah, the MasterChef fan favourite and former scientist, get into the one thing neither of them can forgive. A lie. He has been lied to in the worst way, and he has told the hardest lie there is about himself. This is where they agree, and the bit where they really do not.

What you'll get:

- How to tell a white lie from a real betrayal

- What years of being lied to teaches you about loyalty

- Why coming out can be the hardest lie to undo

- The Scorpio rule: forgive, never forget
