dinner date

[Deleted]

its on itv at midday.. Dinner Date.. tis a cross between Come Dine With Me and Blind date..

a bloke goes round 3 different ladies houses, who each kook him a meal, and at the end he has to decide who was best/who he fancies most and they go orff on a proper restaurant date.

its qwuite funny, if you like come dine with me, you'll love it. It even has a sarcastic woman doing the voice-over a la CDWM. sample voice-over qwuote today after a lady set off the smoke alarm whilst cooking ' They're not just burnt, they're fire alarm burnt' ( in the style of the marks n spencers ads )

ive only seen it 3 times, but its always been the ladies kooking..i wonder if they do ones where the men kook?

I had a mate who said that the smoke alarm was his house's dinner gong.

I know what he means.

Mr. E. always shouts out "Achtung! Achtung!" when ours goes off - which it does, regularly.

Lived in a spacious Victorian conversion once where the whole block was linked up with this industrial fire alarm system. You've probably heard it in some commercial buildings - going "Wheeeeee Wheeeeeee Wheeeeee Wheeeeeeee" with an underlying beeping noise for good measure. It was that loud it would have woken up the cemetery next door and the last one to be buried in there was over 100 years ago. Now every time we hear a similar alarm a small scale wave of terror goes through us as we're reminded how much the bloody thing made us jump. It didn't help that there was the little old man in one of the flats who was prone to burning things in the microwave bless him. He was deaf as a post too - and the alarm didn't touch him!
