First to host is glamorous insurance worker Zoe Prince, who's cooking an Italian-themed menu, despite not being Italian and never having been to Italy.
But that might not be too much of a problem as the other guests don't seem to know their saltimbocca from their vermicelli. With a tip-top menu prepared, Zoe soon learns she's got a lot more on her plate to deal with than just the food, as her guests are a right bunch.
The boys seem more interested in finding out whether Zoe's a model or pole-dancer, rather than a good cook. And things go from flirty to frosty when chip shop manager Martyn Bilby attempts to hold the hand of fellow guest Latvian ice queen Signe Jase.
Fusspot Tracey Hewer, who works in trading standards, is on edge as soon as she hears Tito the cat meowing upstairs. And don't even get her started on her high food-presentation standards. Will Zoe be able to get her guests to put their differences aside and stop looking at her grubby cutlery for long enough to give her a credible score?

It's chip shop manager Martyn Bilby's turn to host, and he's pulling out all the stops with his signature dish 'Swan Lake': a chocolate éclair swan on a blue jelly lake.
After a fractious first night at Zoe's, Martyn asks his guests to dress formally. But any chance of impressing them goes out the window when Zoe and Signe spot photos of him greased up and posing for a 'Mr Doncaster' body-building competition. And things go from bad to worse when Signe gets what looks suspiciously like a hair in her hot king prawn surprise.
Martyn might talk a good game, but that just gives him further to fall as far as fussy Tracey is concerned. Can she hide her utter contempt or will it be plain for all to see?

The guests might also be going home with a dozen carefully packaged cupcakes all of their own. But by the end of the night frozen peas might be of more use after Zoe threatens to wallop Martyn if he doesn't hold his tongue. And Signe is less than flattering about Tracey's cooking.
