It's the final day of celebrity Come Dine With Me and page three favourite, Linda Lusardi, is feeling confident. "I've had more than four celebrities for dinner before," she boasts. Ooh, get you

But experienced or not, the eighties pin up is still taking no chances and has called on Momma Lusardi to come round and help with the trifle. "I don't put any booze in it," she tells Linda, "so it's alright for children." That's the celebs sorted then.

Next up it's the onions and Linda's time saving gadgets are causing more trouble than they're worth. She ends up wearing swimming goggles to peel the veg. Who said models were high maintenance?

In true glamour girl fashion the dress code for the evening is black tie and Linda's even rolled out a red carpet and organised some impromptu awards – asking the guests to nominate each other. Cue the inevitable round of bitching and bickering. "I'm so glad it's the last night," blurts an overly honest Abi.

To clear the air Linda gives her guests a last night gift. Cufflinks for the men and bracelets for the ladies. "These are shit," declares Rodney, as grateful as ever. At the end of a long week can Linda's glitz and glamour send them home on a high?

Starter

Smoked salmon parcels

After greeting her guests with champagne Linda served up a starter of smoked salmon parcels.

Main Course

Peppered steaks

For her main dish the glamour girl served an impressive round of rainbow peppered steaks with stuffed potatoes.

Dessert

Black Forest trifle

To finish off her evening Linda served up her mum's speciality - Black Forest trifle.

  3. Yes, who won??? I watched it all week and was out on Friday, but thought no problem I can watch on demand via cable - the show isn't there and checking timetables on here, it wasn't shown. Please, please let everyone know when the final day will be shown. Thanks

  4. I have been watching Celeb come dine with me this week and Friday was supposed to be Linda Lusardi's dinner party but I cannot get it on 4OD. What happened? I watched all the other dinner parties on 4OD - Mon to Thurs but for some strange reason 4OD is not showing Friday with Linda's party??

  6. I love the programme and try not to miss any episodes. Just wondered what make/designer Linda's gorgeous black dress with the cream frilled top was. Also great to see Lesley showing off her vintage Pink Soda dress !!

  8. I thoroughly enjoyed the Celebrity Come Dine With Me, Lesley Joseph was a scream. However, I must point out that Linda Lusardi didn't do the 'Nicer Dicer' any favours, she was using it upside down and making it look really difficult to use. She obviously hadn't read the instructions or seen it used. I love mine and it makes things easier when doing soups and salads.

  10. How can 2 such arrogant men be in the same room at the same time. They have done nothing but complain. They are not the be-all and end-all of hospitality at all. They are rude and overbearing. Lesley wants all the attention and I felt so sorry for Abi, as she is only one who worked hard and produced a really good meal which was not out of a bag like Paul's and she had no help like Rodney. These two chaps need a lesson in humility.
