Channel 4 offers double helpings of Come Dine with Me

Category: News Release

There will be double the pleasure for viewers of Come Dine with Me as it takes on a brand new set up for a freshly commissioned 30 hour-long episode series.

This explosive new format will see three sets of couples competing to win the coveted cash prize of £1000.  The heat in the kitchen will be twice as hot as each of the couples must prepare and host a dinner party together.  

In Come Dine with Me: Couples (w/t), the pairs may be romantically involved, housemates or even family members. There will be the usual fun, frolics and feuds of the competing dinner party guests - not to mention the tension between the couples themselves.

Each couple will cook for the other two pairs, rate each other’s culinary skills and give their own views on one another’s relationships.  So adding a distinctive change to the successful long-running series. 

On his most recent commission David Sayer, Commissioning Editor for Daytime said: “This new series will have everything viewers love about Come Dine with Me plus an exciting new twist which will see whether couples’ can stand the pressure of throwing a dinner party for demanding guests and with a cash prize at stake.”
