First to host in Doncaster is Neena Rainey, a childminder and mother of two. Which is probably just as well, as her guests end up behaving like children. Retired businesswoman Ross Thompson is soon sulking in Neena's conservatory, having taken an instant dislike to clothes store owner Katherine Taylor. Ross is cajoled into taking a tour round the house with tailor Dan Churchill, but spends most of the time falling out with him. The feeling is mutual and the pair spend the night bad-mouthing each other. Watching it all serenely is electrician Steve Clift, the one person everyone seems to like. Can Neena calm them with mushrooms stuffed with pancetta, noisettes of lamb and lemon chiffon tart?
