2x22 - Beth Bovaird: Block Five

October 11, 2011

The last time we saw Beth she left her ribs in her smoker for an extra 4 hours which turned them into “burnt little carcasses of hell” . But tonight Beth is back!!!! And determined to be better than ever, so she’s serving up a meal that’s first class meets white trash. On the menu is mac & cheese made with the most expensive truffles in town, and pulled pork sliders. Beth serves up some boozy whiskey sours , which puts everyone in the right mood, but as soon as they discover a bed in the dining room, the guests start to worry that Beth’s lovefest may be a little too much . Will the hippest hypnotist in town put everyone under her spell? Or will she get smoked once again?

2x23 - Graham Caswell: Block Five

October 12, 2011

Last year Graham the Goofball hosted the longest dinner party in history and got the lowest score ever. He had a pig leg on the table and his guests fell asleep in his bed. This time, Graham insists he has his timing under control and he’s planning a “Big Night” that features a homemade Italian timpano, which is made of layers of sausage, pasta and sauce. Graham calls it a “Roman Orgy”, James calls it “pedestrian”. Shocker!!!! Over dinner the gang gets to know each other better and the walls start to come down, Dez breaks down and cries at the table and everyone agrees – Dez is redeemed!! But for Graham redemption is ticking away, will he be able to serve his dessert before midnight? Or will his guests clock him?

2x24 - Cathy Habus: Block Five

October 13, 2011

It’s one year later and Chatty Cathy is STILL single and STILL sleeping on the pull out couch in her parent’s basement. But Cathy insists that she’s changed - and tonight she will redeem herself by NOT serving raw seafood and NOT making her guests’ vomit. But as Cathy gets cooking – she also gets chugging and the disasters start happening. Her homemade ice cream ends up on the floor, then the guests are floored to find out that Cathy wants them to put on sumo outfits and wrestle!!!! One guest bows out and another blows away the competition. As Cathy raises her blood alcohol level, her hygiene standards lower – licking her fingers, double dipping and rooting through the garbage for expired cream all of a sudden becomes acceptable. Will Drinky McCocktail end up with a win? Or just more wine?

2x25 - James Marshall: Block Five

October 14, 2011

It’s the final night of Redemption week and all eyes are on pretentious platinum blonde, James Marshall. Last time James choked and ended up cutting himself, hyperventilating, and his dinner was so disappointing that in the end he lost to a guy with no stove!!! James has talked the talk but this is his last chance to prove that he can walk the walk. As the guests arrive they notice something isn’t right with James. Is he drunk? nervous? exhausted? Or D, all of the above? James serves dinner on plates almost as ginormous as his ego….will he get points for presentation? Or lose them for pretention? His lobster appetizer has everyone clawing for more, but his main course of short ribs comes up short. Only dessert of crème brulee can save the day. At the end of the night – the winner is revealed. Which one of our horrible hosts will reign supreme and be redeemed ? And which one of the flops will fall flat?

2x26 - Jennifer Peace: Block Six

October 17, 2011

Mardi gras maven Jennifer Peace hosts night one of a weeklong dinner party competition. This party princess is sure to impress her guests with her New Orleans-themed night. Joining the party are 4 complete strangers – 51-year-old Brit Elizabeth Newell, Divorced Dad Marco Campisano, 49-year-old Fireman Charlie Gandt and 54 year old Dr. Susan Piccinin. To start the night Jen serves up a Hurricane cocktail out of her very own tiki bar. During Jen’s appetizer of oysters rockefeller, cajun shrimp and chicken gumbo she shocks the guests by comparing her sweltering home to a prostitute's crack! For dinner Jen presents a garnish heavy plate of smothered pork chops with red beans and rice. To cover up the fact she overcooks her dessert Jen smothers the king cake she’s prepared with icing and mardi-gras-coloured sparkles and hopes for the best. Whether that worked or not the crowd is sure to be impressed with Jen’s spectacular firework display. With Jen ending her night with a big bang will the guests forget about the unremarkable meal and mark her sky high?

2x27 - Elizabeth Newell: Block Six

October 18, 2011

Hosting the second night of a five day dinner party competition is menopausal Elizabeth Newell. Marco and Charlie check out a rather intriguing statue located at the top of Elizabeth’s staircase; it’s nude and looks as though it needs to use the restroom. More revolting, Susan and Jen find what appears to be a pickled penis on the mantle. If those snoops haven’t got the guests salivating, the talk about snail’s excrement certainly won't as Elizabeth serves up escargot wedding hats. For the main course Elizabeth serves stuffed pork tenderloin and smaked potatoes. To help the flow of good conversation, Elizabeth presents each guest with a lottery ticket before serving up her dessert of double chocolate cheesecake. Will the guests bestow Come Dine with Me Canada’s honorary Queen Elizabeth with a royal score?

2x28 - Marco Campisano: Block Six

October 19, 2011

It’s the third night of a five day dinner party competition where five strangers battle it out to win a prize. Class clown Marco Campisano is in the hot seat and he hopes to take top spot with an Italian meal. Marco vows to beon his best behaviour tonight as he greets his guests with a blue drink called “blue grottos”. For the appetizer Marco surprises his guests with tableside service of Caesar salad. And in true Italian style Marco serves up a main course of chicken cacciatore made with home jarred tomatoes. For dessert Marco has a flop with his chocolate soufflé. Can the guests forgive Marco for a simple but great meal and flat soufflé?

2x29 - Charlie Gandt: Block Six

October 20, 2011

It’s night four of a five day dinner party competition and firefighter Charlie Gandt is feeling the heat. To start off the night beer-loving Charlie surprises the group and serves up margaritas! While Charlie prepares his appetizer of homemade venison sausage and pizza, while snooping Susan and Jen find some melted firefighting gear as Elizabeth pulls Charlies rifle out on Marco. For the main course Charlie serves barbequed ribs with spanish rice and grilled asparagus. Finally, Charlie serves what he thinks is the strongest part of his meal: trio of tarts that the boys at the station rave about. Will Charlie save his scores with his baking or will he go down in flames?

2x30 - Susan Piccinin: Block Six

October 21, 2011

It’s the final night of a 5 day food fight and tonight’s host is Susan Piccinin. Not one to shy away from a challenge Sue is hoping that her Oh Canada theme and ambitious menu will be this week’s winning menu. With spirits high on the last night the guests arrive decked out in Canadian garb and are greeted with a Canadian martini and succulent bison balls. Before dinner Charlie and Marco scurry off to snoop and the house and discover Sue’s secret, the homemaker is actually a doctor! When Susan is confronted about her profession it’s an emotional and heartwarming moment. However, Sue struggles with her main course of beef tenderloin served with asparagus and mushrooms. To finish the doc turns up the heat, literally, with maple bread pudding dessert, served straight out of the oven. Tonight the winner is announced. Will the doctor’s ambitious Canadian evening be all that she hope for?

2x31 - Lilliane Genier: Block Seven

October 24, 2011

Tonight, 42 year old urbanite Lilliane Genier hosts a clean and classy dinner party on night 1 of a 5 day dinner dine-off. Lilliane plans to prove that she is the “Host With the Most” with her meticulous attention to detail and a simple yet succulent menu. But Lil’s guests this evening are a far cry from the swanky socialites of her world. Dining at her table tonight are punk rock magician Dylan, sporty shy girl Sheila, loud mouth Anna and Italian family guy Pat – 4 complete strangers. Lil serves up a sophisticated appetizer of tea marinated sea scallops, but is disappointed to see Anna and Dylan childishly choke them down. For the main, Lil fires back with a main course of bourbon beef, roast potatoes and seasonal vegetables. With her homemade chocolate almond pie for dessert Lil is sure that this competition is in the bag. But will Lil’s simple yet sophisticated menu win over her disparate dinners or will her evening underwhelm?
