Come Dine With Me

Can't warm to any of this weeks contestants, they all seem a bit odd and the food seems very poor so far.

And she shouldn't have worn that low cut top.

I can't work out what is odd about the woman who burnt nearly everything and forgot to cook the veggies - anyone think she looks like Kath Burke?

Do you know I wanted to say something about that Susan. Was even going to write something here but couldn't without sounding like a horrible snobby prejudice person (which I am not).
I couldn't even be in the same room as her I'm sure, there's just something I can't stand about her.. I thought her accent (and I have a northern one), then I thought it was her mouth, her demenour, the way she looks everwhere when she talks, or gets drunk, the way she said "kicking K for K" and "gorge" for gorgeous.. Then I realised what I hate about her is all of this which make her so uncouth.. I am horrible.

I don't like the others either and would've been devestated had they turned up at mine.

You've made me laugh, that's for sure.

Susan always looks grubby, as if she needs a good wipe round with a face flannel.

But the other girl is equally off putting - she seems devoid of character and humour altogether. Hopefully she'll improve when it's her time to host.

And I can't decide which of the men is more irritating - the bald chap or the barman.

I think this is the very first time when there hasn't been one contestant I'm hoping will win, or lose abysmally.

I totally agree with all your comments - it is a very poor week. The only thing that saves it is the totally georgous Dave Lamb and his wonderful narration - I could listen to him all day!!

Agree pips 1 - David Lamb is brilliant, he just says what you are thinking at the time! Weird lot, I always record this programme as I can't always watch it at the time. Love it!

Oh same here, they're literally scraping the barrel with this lot & haven't grabbed me at all this week...

lol at boogie & the kicking K, I nearly choked on my own dinner when she said that and anyone who says 'gorge' needs a slap with a bunch of wet vine leaves!

My fave programme and glad they've gone back to half hour episodes.

I liked the first guy and the food he cooked,
The 'kathy burke' lookalike was a joke and she would have gotten nil points from me.
The guy last night, was very over enthustiastic about his food and smelling the spices!! He did well.

It is the other woman I can't stand and cannot wait to see what she will cook! She is a royal pain and nothing seems to please her!!

...or it's on catch-up tv if you have Virgin. I couldn't think who that woman reminded me of but of course, it's Kathy Burke in full Waynetta Slob mode.

Very disappointed with Dan yesterday - he really enjoyed the food and gave a very low mark.

Jealousy!!

But wow was I surprised at........., I've forgotton her name.

She cooked well, I didn't like the look of the lentil curry!

Yeah the green curry looked like something that floats on my pond. She's like a carboard cut out. There is no life or even a facial expression in her. I felt awful for letting out a loud laugh when I saw those paintings.

No, she has no personality at all.

I'm hoping tonight's arrogant little twit falls flat on his face - although I was pleased to see he gave an excellent mark for yesterday's meal.

Well!

That Susan turned out to be the most sensible of the lot - still a rotten cook.

What a very nasty bully of a man that Carlos is.

And egg and chips at a dinner party!

Carlos was nasty. Had I not seen tonights winner in previous shows I may have mistaken him for a nice guy. I think Susan is a Mancunian learning English with the kicking K and gorge and tonight it was "That starter was subliminal, just awesome" ??

A satisfying week, all the same.

That big couch and tv - was that upstairs? I couldn't figure out the house layout at all

Look forward to next weeks. :)
