On Tuesday, finance director Jane is up next to host and decides to treat her guests to a night of fine dining, but she has her work cut out when there’s a ‘chilling change’ noticed amongst some of the guests.

On day 3 drama teacher and DJ Denver is putting on a Spanish inspired menu and is going all out for an Ibiza experience. But when all the guests do the conga out on the street, Darren finds it all a bit cringe-worthy.

Local legend Billy puts on a ‘tried and tested’ menu of dinner party favourites on day 4 where Dionne finds the verbal sparring between Jane and Denver entertainment, and the table turns when there’s a basic geography fail.

On the final night car painter Darren is next to host with a plan to put a fancy twist on a ‘basic’ menu but can he keep harmony amongst his guests and who has won the £1000 prize? Tune in to find out.
