come dine with me

[dizzydixies]

anyone else watching this week in Sunderland?

is it just me and DH that now think that they are trying to pick more eccentric contestants?

a woman with a pub instead of a front room that only drinks lager with a bloke who has a £26k chandelier and a bloke with 8 million letters after his name

I know its all about the ratings etc etc but I enjoyed it as it was and not because they're parading through people who might clash

oh my GOD that bloke went through his bins for evidence of the homemade pudding

and the comments about 'new money'

oh come on I can't be the only one watching this?!!?!?

its tv genius

i love cdwm and watch them all
so much so that when they show the repeats on more 4 i've usually already seen them
the celeb one was great last night
and wasn't tony's house tasteless (aswell as his food by the look of it)

i agree, it was better when it was less popular and more cultish with more "normal" folk. it's like BB trying to get more controversial putting wackier and freakier people together.
i hate the new theme music though, used to love the old one as it was so distinctive and made my other half roll his eyes "oh you're not watching that again" when i had it on more4 (5 episodes back to back)

did you see that silver couch eww tacky or what !
the food looked grim
am looking forward to tonights just wish it was an hour long

I can't believe he had all that lovely ingredients, and he just ruined it. That sauce over the steak - yuk.

I agree too - "normal" people are quite weird enough without them trying to pick characters. I still love it though, the voice over guy is fab

IMO the people from regional areas are always bonkers - esp the Ne - remember the tory councillor who made the bean salad?

Missed last night but will be watching tonight. Anything I need to know?

I agree that all of these 'reality' shows are more engrossing if they use more normal people. I always wanted How Clean Is Your House to go to a clean-looking house and see how filthy it was really, or for You Are What You Eat to fill a table with a week's worth of food for someone who eats averagely healthily. We already know that if you drink 6 litres of coke a day and eat a family-pack of walkers crisps you're not going to be doing so well.

£26,ooo for a chandelier!!
his hair was hilarious and going on a sunbed - tacky and stupid!!

That 'beer' woman really annoys me - but im not really sure why.

We haven't seen her house yet, but opening a can of lager doesn't look like 'having a bar in your house' to me.

AAhhhggghhh she's winning now

Dammit I missed yesterday so I'll have missed the winning dinner.

Gah, I missed it tonight (again!)

Who won?

It was annoying pub woman Ashley. Was bad food this week IMO
