The culinary competition comes from Northampton, where skiing fan Kirsty Frior serves a menu of winter warming food from the French Alps to her dinner party guests.

Marketing consultant William Henry, who has a tendency to dominate the conversation, is serving an authentic Italian menu along with rare wines from his own cellar.

Cocktail lover Jenna Smith hopes to wow her guests with an unusual menu that features pigeon. But she's committed a classic dinner party error: attempting a dish she’s never made before.

Scottish arts and crafts lover Angela Parker hopes her extra hand-made touches will win her the £1,000, which is just as well, as Jenna and Kirsty aren't looking forward to her haggis dish.

The final host in Northampton is artist Alex Soulsby, who spent years living in Thailand and is cooking an ambitious five-dish Thai menu while hoping to sweep guest Kirsty off her feet.
