Couples Come Dine with Me heads to Bournemouth, where Karen and wife Lindsay kick off the competition with an evening of trusted family favourites, winning over garrulous David and Elaine as well as newlyweds Matt and Jay. Day two sees hopeless romantics Matt and Jay serving up a traditional Russian feast, but eyebrows are raised when shop bought items are thrown into mix, while Matt's boy band days provokes huge intrigue from their guests. Finally, it's David and Elaine's chance to show the younger members of the competition how to throw a dinner party, providing they survive their incessant bickering in the kitchen.
