This episode comes from in and around Cambridge where young couple Fiona and Anthony kick off the competition with a 'Carnival' style dinner party. Everyone loves the chicken wings starter, but the spicy fish main proves too much for electrician Paul, and his wife Karen is unsure of international couple Ari and Amanda as they seem 'a bit posh'. Day two sees a squeamish Karen nearly throw up as Paul prepares the chicken liver pate, while Ari and Amanda get the wrong end of the stick when they turn up in Christmas jumpers. Finally, it's Ari and Amanda's turn to impress with an evening of fine dining, and the guests are impressed from the off by the size of their hosts' house. But will the food match the surroundings and net them the grand?
