Love that programme but don't know if this a new Spanish/Brit version.

I love the bitchy commentator and I love how they all think they're going to be so great and most of them fail.

I hate the arrogant "I know all about food- I'm gonna win" ones and then they stir something and LICK the bloody spoon and put it right back into the pot.

I couldn't give a damn about other so called reality programmes, but I do like this one.

Don't think I have that ...programmes on Sky In Italy usually start from 109 which is called Sky One. I think.

It might come up elsewhere though but I doubt it as Sky in Italy never had Come Dine With Me at all - it's mostly American Fox channels and not British ones.

They did an Irish one with the same voice over, Dave Lamb. Superb programme.

You don't think the Producers actually choose average normal people for these shows do you

And nobody cooked anything remotely Spanish. I think I would have ended up killing John.

When the person who won served up pie and mash with liquor (whatever that is) as a starter, and then mash with the main course as well, it doesn't say much for the quality of the competition, does it?

I realise they don't want "average" people on these shows as it wouldn't be as entertaining, but I'm surprised they manage to find so many completely grotesque ones - or am I?

I would have liked to have seen something that actually showed it was set in the CDS - this may as well have been set in Essex!!!!

What happened tp the bit where they used to show them going down to their local shops for their ingredients

Just watched a bit. The guy who cooked the lamb was in fuengirola and there were some shots of calahonda in the first part. Didn't watch after that. Isn't that John an asshole!
