Over the course of a week, five strangers take it in turns to cook up the perfect dinner party as the culinary competition goes down under to Australia for a new third series. After each dinner, the guests score the host with a mark out of 10 and, at the end of the process, the top-scoring host wins a cash prize of A$2000. Night one host is 45-year-old Leonie Bedford, who makes a living as an artist and music teacher but feels that her real talents lie in her psychic ability to see and communicate with dead people. Leonie offers a feast of Indian cuisine, but her guests - Shane the butcher, Lance the embalmer, author and society lady Mary, and entertainer Ammie, who doesn't eat red meat - are all hard to impress. As the evening goes on, it's clear that Mary is definitely not inspired by fellow guest Shane, who dominates the night with all the manners and subtlety of a swearing, burping bull in a china shop
Come Dine with Me is a Cookery programme and has been classified a 15 certificate.
