The immensely popular dinner party show Come Dine With Me returns to FOOD with series six. Each weeknight four strangers battle it out for the title of ultimate dinner party host. These amateur chefs believe they can cook up the perfect evening meal and hopes their unique style will clinch them the title of best host. With gourmet guests judging every move, the culinary cracks start to show as the passionate foodies battle it out to win the £1000 prize.
I always watch come dine with me. Its hilarious and the narrator adds it all...
I really love this show, the narrator makes me laugh all the time with his witty comments. It is just great to watch the differant types of people. It is amazing that some of them cook something that they have never tried before, are they nuts!!
This show is hilarious, I love the narrator!
Butt
I discovered this show by accident about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I've been watching it when it's on at 5.58pm in Melbourne. Unfortunately Episode 5 of the Preston mob wasn't shown on Monday. As it was one of the most bizarre programmes I've ever seen, I'm dying to know who actually turned up for the fifth evening...and who won?
Can someone help?
hey, I was just watching some of the older shows and there is one where the contestant cooks steak but she uses a plank of wood to cook it on...does anyone have any idea what sort of wood would be suitable for this? (not overly keen on accidently poisoning the guests at the next dinner party :D)
shut up bonnie is an awesome cook
Word on the street is that she comes at a reasonable price ;)
Ohhh good old bonmarr ;) she goes alright
Bonmarr would be purrrfect for this show, i agree Cheryl! :D
Love this show......when is it coming to film in Canada???????????????????????
i saw an add last night- they are taking auditions now for an aussie series. not sure when it will be aired though- hope this helps.
Carissa 28th July 2010
Does anyone know when the second aussie series will be aired?
Thoroughly disappointed with the conclusion of Australia Group 1. The narrator was inferior to UK version and they really need to be more cutting in their sarcasm. The marking was also weirdly off which the cameramen / producer should really direct more. Great call to bring the show to Oz but needs a bit more work
Ben can come and cook for me any night How cute is he!
Hurrah! The new Aussie show has started, but I wonder why only 30 minutes instead of 60. How rude was Pippa, pity she didn't get locked out for a while or have a little surprise slipped into her dessert.
fantastic show to watch. Dave Lamb makes it sooo funny with his back ground commentary.
Thanks VC3, I realised later that they were older programs and that might be the reason. Agree that Pippa's a right one - who do these people think they are? Looking forward to the next instalment and also the one being shown from Torbay. Talking of which, why do people go on the show if they don't eat basic foods i.e. cheese and fish? P.S. Can I take Dave Lamb home with me ?
This weeK its that b..ch Pippa and I cant understand why Vera ( who was locked outside) didnt say something to the other guests and as for giving b..ch face a hug when she did finally open the door makes her a better person than me...I would have slapped her! She complained about the food all week but shovelled it in..........re Janet's query, I think the second half that we are seeing now is the first series and Dave was just getting started....he is a hoot!
How come there are 2 different 'styles' of CDWM ? They both have Dave Lamb doing the the talk over, one has his cheeky one-liners which make me laugh out loud but another has quite a staid, flat version to it, which is really disappointing. He really makes the show and that's why I watched in the first place - so what's going on, anyone know?
i love this show!!!!!!!!!! i watch this show with my daughter every night!!!! i live in melbourne and i want this show to come to melbourne!!!!!!!!!!!!! go cdwm!!!
I appeared in this programme in the UK, it was an absolute HOOT to do, and what you see on screen is really an edited version of the events that unfold as the guests get more and more tiddly. I have since moved to Melbourne, leaving z list celebrity behind me, so can you imagine my absolute amazement when aaustralian lady in the supermarket came up to me and asked if I had been on CDWM!!! I had no idea it would be broadcast everywhere in the world - I feel that my star has rised and I am truly international!!! Thank you CDWM xxx
I lived in the UK for a year and this show is huge and the Australian version should be on a major commercial channel like Masterchef. I love Lifestyle food channel but the fact C.D.W.M is such a hit in England it would be better suited to a major network like Channel 10 or something.
Does anyone from Lifestyle Food read these blogs? Why have episode after episode going on for hours? I love CDWM but get really bored when it's on for hours and hours non stop. Does anyone know when the Australian version is coming and if it will be on Channel 4?
If Brian Wiseman is in the show it will be very funny.. He was hilarious when he worked with Stan Zemanek doing all those funny voices on radio
Love it to bits......my husband is also hooked now. Cant wait for the Celebrity series with "MO" from Eastenders. She will be a hoot!
I heard Bryan Wiseman the guy who was in Home and Away is in the Australian version
Damn i didnt even know THIS site existed!! but i DOOO love CDWM.. wonder if they've finished casting yet.. :-(
Well there is always some awefull person in the mix, just love the show, got many good recipes and great ideas
looks like this is going to be a fun show
Where can we find a photo of Dave Lamb - he makes the show!
RF38 Go to google and type in the come dine with me bbc- it will come up with the channel 4 website and it should have a photo of him on there. I only looked at it the other day, Just to mention- he definitley doesn't look like what I thought- see what you think. Hope this helps. :)
I agree Houndog- what about regional towns as well. I would have loved to be on this show- IT ROCKS!!!! I have watched all 70 episodes and love them all. Dave Lamb makes the show!!! Well done Come Dine with Me!!!
How come Sydney & Melbourne will have all the fun. We have some great cooks, great produce & great weather up here in Brisbane. Boooo to the southern states always being the source for contestants for TV shows.
Cheryl 3days ago I hav enot seen the show but my friends say that I would be purrfect for the show and people could dine with me. especially Bonnie Marchiandi........X Cheryl
We are doing an Australian version and casting right now!!! As mentioned in Bob's comment please go to www.granadaproductions.com.au/casting or phone 02 9383.4343 and we will interview you over the phone. We are looking for Sydney and Melbourne contestants only for the first series. You will see on air call outs soon on LifestyleFOOD channel soon. Call us now...!!! 'CDWM Australia' team
I am addicted to this show, I love it. But I don't like what is on at the moment, 5 contestants spread over 5 half hour episodes, to stretch one dinner party into half hour it is too repetetive. Bring back the one hour shows with 4 contestants. I love it.
Seems they are doing and Australian version!!!!!! www.granadaproductions.com.au
Where are the new episodes? You are repeating the shows very quickly :(
i love this show we need it down under!!!
Definitely a goer for Australian TV....and yes...what has happened to the recipes????
I love this show, but i want to watch it on the internet without youtube. Is it possible??
What has happened to the recipes? You used to be able to get all the recipes from the shows, why has this changed?
I think the new series is not like the old one. I enjoy seeing the hosts try very hard to make a perfect night (with some hilarious results - Dave Lamb makes them even funnier), but I always find that you would be guessing about what would happen at the next dinner party & wanting to watch the show on the next day. When I was watching the new series, I found out some things about the contestants that I don't want to know in a 1 hour episode. 1 episode in particular with a 50-something year old artist & his, let's say, really dirty mind (Sorry, but too much to take in 1 night).
I think that Mike Goldman (Meerkat Manor & Big Brother) would be a great narrator for the Australian Come Dine With Me.
Great to see a new series the only thing wrong with the one hour series is not enough DAVID LAMB
Id love to be one of the contestants if we have an aussie version! Love this show..look forward to it and we need MORRRREEE of the recipes available to us! The good ones that is!
An aussie version would be great fun and Dave Lamb comentating, taking the mickey out of the aussies would be very amusing and appeal to both Oz and UK viewers.
I agree an Aussie series would be fantastic and yes David Lamb is the best my man only watches because of him.Mmmm wonder who the Aussie David could be any ideas anyone ....maybe someone like Matt Tilley or Kate Langbroek
I'd love to see an Australian Come Dine With Me. But I think for the show to work you'd need David Lamb commentating. He is brilliant!!!!
The episodes in Preston has been the funniest ever. We cried with laughter. One of the best things on TV. Come on Lifestyle - do an Aussie version!
I would love to be apart of an Australian version but in Perth. it would be great and entertaining.. im pleased there is a new series that has started. the show is gold!
Why don't we start a petition for the Australian version of Come Dine With Me? I would LOVE to be on it...as long as they have a cute single guy on it in the same epsiode ;)
Would love the recipe for moroccan lamb on the celebrity come dine with me 14/5/2009
I am a huge fan of this tv show and thank god a new series is commencing Monday night (11/5), as watching repeats of old episodes was becoming boring. Only wished we had the same show in Sydney, as I would love to partipate and be apart of the Come Dine With Me experience. New series trailer looks great!
Come Dine with Me - love the show but thoroughly sick of constant re-runs. When can we get some new shows???? Melbourne
I love Sarah Donohue she is so sexy, she should have won! Her meal and her night was amazing
what happened to the show, it's not on tonight
Absolutely love the show, get some good recipes, my god how rude was that creature pippa, (she doesnt deserve capital letters) can some one tell me how many series have been made, and are we getting more in OZ, my favourite recipe is Morrocan chicken, make it a lot very yummy.
Lynny
Please could you share your particular recipe, the recipe on line has only 4 ingredients and I'm sure there is more to it?? Would love to try it expecially as you've obviously had a success with it. Thx.
Brilliant show..omg though there are some terrible snobs in the UK though.....Wonder how they feel when they see themselves.
I love this show. There are some great characters ... and I agree, Pippa was definitely one of those. Any chance Lifestyle Food may look at doing an Australian Version? I would love to give it a go.
Can anyone advise how many series there are please. We've had only series one and possible two in Australia, plus a celebrity one with Mischa/Ulrika etc. Love the shows and 'hungry' for more.....
Hey - I just finished filming a show in Devon - I cant wait for it to be aired - it will be on in June / July!!! Keep your eye out for the 'Torbay' one
My saturday morning ise my weeks highlight to enjoy the marathon. This show is thoroughly amusing, the guest dynamics are hilarious but the narrator is the real star!! I hope many more series are released as Australia has only had a limited showing so far.
I agree, the narrator is exceptionally entertaining, and I find myself laughing out loud at the comments made. Very perceptive and amusing.
This awful snob Pippa kicked out the first geust because she wasn't ready yet...........Well I never. Left out in the frezzing cold. Its an out rage. But I found the rest of the seris with a more pleasent geust list. I love this show.
love this show have seen all episodes over and over was wondering if any new series would be screened this year. I agree what a cow Pippa is and Craig not much better.Bring back the series with Danny and his bad card trick and his guitar now he's entertaining.
How rude was pippa.. no it isnt 6.30 wait out there.. how rude..ingorance does not a good cook make.
here here we entertain a lot and I was apalled and astonished at the rudeness of this Pippa creature (complete with tiara!!!!!!!!!!) My goodness what a pretentious cow.
hee
I enjoy this show except for STUCK UP PIPPA (current show this week) who seems to think she is better than the poor old daring who started the week off I mean she did the best she could & if PIPPA was in my company I certainly would bring her down to size with her "I am better than you"
PIPPA!!!!!! What a poor excuse for a human being! Pompous, precious and boring! I've never been so angry watching television before, I wanted to junp the screen and strangle her.
Agreed what a bee ei tee cee aich!
May I just say that I think this show is extremely entertaining and inspiring. I mean, I have gotten some great dessert ideas from the 2nd weeks hosts. Especially Bruce's jelly thing; I thought that looked delicious.A great show, I'd recommend it!
