Outspoken pastry chef Claudette Brady is the first host in Bournemouth. She's so eager to win that she is making two starters and two desserts either side of her main course.
Sales exec Sonia Peck thinks she has the perfect combination for a dazzling dinner party: good food and a magician called Darrell
James Dean is out to impress with a seafood supper. His starter and main course are both fish-based, but two of his guests have an intense dislike of fish.
The final host in Bournemouth is eccentric cafe owner Clive Page, who believes the key to a successful dinner party is to make sure he is looking hot
Drinks rep Nick hosts the first of four nights in Gwent, where things get off to a shaky start with his guests. There's opinionated Jan who dominates conversations, Tony who wants to talk about veganism, and Sam who just isn't interested.
Tony's vegan menu doesn't go well, and his anecdote about food textured like phlegm nearly causes Sam to vomit. Plus, after the group let Jan know she was dominating the previous night's conversation, she bursts into tears on the way home.
Sam has a daring plan for her night as host - an ice cream making machine that she's never used before, along with a series of dishes that she's never cooked before. Despite the pressure, it produces the first relaxed evening of the week.
Jan spends 10 hours prepping in her attempts to win the week's prize. In a peaceful night, she worries that not being present for long stretches of the meal while cooking will hinder her chances - though also acknowledges that it may help.
The first host in Devon, supermarket boss Karen, knows how to have a good party but she's not so good in the kitchen. Five pavlovas later, one gets thrown across the room.
In Devon, pig farmer and lady of the manor Deborah is sourcing most of her ingredients from the grounds of her enormous manor house, including pheasant for the starter and pork for her sausages
Self-confessed perfectionist Sarah's salmon and mackerel roulade and dessert are immaculately presented, but her compulsive pre-planning backfires when her potato rosti turns brown.
IT consultant Darren has struggled to make himself heard all week and he's not got on with Karen either. He hopes to win all his guests over with a fun-filled Mexican-themed dinner.
Originally shown as five separate episodes in October 2005, this compilation special marks a week in Nottingham. Highlights include a dinner featuring kangaroo and crocodile, along with a man who embalmed his own parents.
