Come Dine With Me (2005)
Specials
Amateur chefs compete against each other by hosting a dinner party for the other contestants. Each competitor then rates the host's performance with the winner winning a £1,000 cash prize. An element of comedy is added to the show through comedian Dave Lamb, who provides a dry and "bitingly sarcastic" narration.

S0E1 - Made in Chelsea Mash Up: Mark Francis Vandelli
Born-and-bred Chelseaite Mark-Francis showed off his Italian heritage with a starter of risotto - with porcini mushrooms and white Alba truffles. His main of Ossobuco alla Milanese leaves Binky baffled, whilst he goes back to the 70s for dessert, with Sicilian lemon sorbet served in a lemon.

S0E2 - Made in Chelsea Mash Up: Caggie Dunlop
Caggie got a little help from best friend Millie to prepare her twice-baked cheese soufflé. Not that it helped much.
Her main was steak and chips in fancy clothes - tournedos rossini.
Dessert was more bedtime snack than dinner party pud, Caggie's cookies and milk.

S0E3 - Made in Chelsea Mash Up: Binky Felstead
The guests decamped to Binky's country pad, where the starter was mushroom soup in a chi-chi teacup.
Her main was roast pheasant, which she proudly skinned herself. Well, almost.
With a little help from Mummy, Binky served up pavlova for her frightfully posh pud.

S0E4 - Made in Chelsea Mash Up: Spencer Matthews
Cor blimey, guv'nor! Spencer took the West End darlings east for the night, with a typically cockney starter of... tuna tartare. Oh.
His main was more like it, a good old plateful of pie and mash.
The knees-up ended as they all got stuck in to treacle sponge and custard. Unfortunately we can't bring you Spencer's recipe for copyright reasons, so watch the show again on 4oD for the recipe or try Marry Berry's treacle pudding recipe instead.

S0E5 - Top 30
The Come Dine with Me vault has been ransacked to countdown the top 30 best bits ever. During more than a thousand episodes, hundreds of people have attempted to host the ultimate dinner party and claim the £1000 prize. These vintage clips show the good, the bad and the downright ugly, with wannabe cooks and their menu mishaps ranging from pigs trotters for a main course to sausage trifle for dessert. Bad hosting includes the host who fell asleep, leaving her guests to do the cooking.
