Come Dine with Me is a British reality series that has aired on Channel 4 since 10 January 2005 and is narrated by Dave Lamb. As of July 2020, there have been 45 series.
Format.
The show features four amateur chefs who live in the same town or area, who each host a three-course dinner party for the other contestants at their own home. Each competitor then rates the host's food and hosting skills during the taxi journey home, with the highest-scoring chef winning £1,000 cash. The show often features guests with clashing personalities.
The episodes featuring the same group of chef contestants are broadcast in sequence. Early series included groups of five chefs rather than four.
Dave Lamb provides a voiceover which sometimes includes sarcastic comments on the chefs' food and interior design.
A 2016 episode attracted particular attention, when contestant Peter Marsh made ungracious remarks upon losing to the winning contestant Jane. He said to her and the other contestants: "What a sad little life, Jane. Enjoy the money. I hope now you will spend it on getting some lessons in grace and decorum, because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on."
In the United Kingdom, Come Dine With Me has become a “British Institution” and is often referenced in everyday conversation.
