Come Dine with Me
S01E07: London, Bruce Mainwaring
City slicker, Bruce Mainwaring, from Come Dine With Me London plans to wow his guests with his stunning bachelor pad and extensive wine cellar. He's playing to win, but is so caught up with his food and wine that he makes some basic culinary blunders. But when the guests arrive, it soon becomes clear that Moona prefers the role of host to guest. She's no longer centre of attention and not happy sitting in Bruce's shadow.
Overview
Amateur chefs compete against each other by hosting a dinner party for the other contestants. Each competitor then rates the host's performance with the winner winning a £1,000 cash prize. An element of comedy is added to the show through comedian Dave Lamb, who provides a dry and "bitingly sarcastic" narration.
