Channel 4's award-winning daytime show Come Dine with Me returns for a brand-new series of mouth-watering food and hilarious hosting.

First host in West London is landscape gardener, Greg Basire, who modestly describes himself as 'Mr Mediocre' but is secretly very competitive, especially when it comes to beating his kids at football.

Next up is linguist, Hugo Preece, who's finding it tough to get organised after a late night at Greg's. Hugo's planned a simple menu that will give him plenty of time at the table, but when he serves his foie gras starter, he realises he might have been better off staying in the kitchen, as he upsets gardener Greg with his acerbic opinions.

Iranian-born Sabrina Ghayour plans to wow her guests with a lavish Persian menu. But she'll also have her work cut out keeping the peace, as the previous night Amii confessed that she doesn't like Sabrina, and Greg told Hugo and Amii that they were snobs.

PR princess' Amii van Amerongen' is planning a charm offensive to stop everyone from arguing. But before her dinner has even started, Hugo admits he enjoys winding Greg up.

Food journalist' Thoby Young' thinks he has what it takes to scoop the £1,000 prize and has a trick up his sleeve: his children call him Mr Tarty because of his expertise in making tarts. So will his dessert save the day and win him the prize?

Watch the West London chefs in action, weekdays, 5:30pm on Channel 4

  3. Greg Basire has to be one the funniest guys on TV - for goodness sake give him is own show, or at least get him on grumpy old men - he's a gem Laughed like a drain at his one liners

  4. Rude - yep agree, doesn't strike me that she's intelligent enough to be self opinionated though lol. Fur thing well yes myself personally don't agree with wearing it but besides that if you're going to wear it how about buying something that actually fits you - she's right when she said people look at her in it and it isn't cos she looks good!

  5. I think Amii should be sent to a fur farm to see what happens to the animals there. I would like to know if she would still wear fur if she knew the animals were still alive whilst they are being skinned. It is not just mink and fox, but cats and dogs aswell. They can live for up to 10 minutes after being skinned. I think Amii is one sick individual.

  6. Amii van Amerongen, I just cannot believe how rude and self opinionated she is, she has got to be one of the most nasty contestants there has been on the programme, she really does need to wake up and smell the coffee and realise what sort of person she is.
