The contest begins at The Grange in Oxfordshire, where Graham Neil and his wife Cherry offer a picture-framing course and a morning bagpipe wake-up call. The competing guests are from South Wales, Edinburgh and Abingdon.

The competition reaches its second day, and the group visits the village of Llandysul, South Wales, to enjoy the hospitality of Katie Clamp and husband Andy. Edinburgh guesthouse manager Tony Costa is not happy to find dog hairs on his bed, and Graham Neil is unimpressed after taking a dip in the hot tub. Things seem to get worse when efforts to prepare a hearty breakfast backfire, leading to chaos in the kitchen.

Tony and Dawn Ann Costa, owners of the five star Amar Agua in Edinburgh, pride themselves on their high standards. They decide to entertain their guests with a meal at a leading restaurant, and a visit to a subterranean museum, but Katie keeps complaining and Tony and Dawn Ann struggle to keep calm.

Terry and Peter Boswell welcome the group to their Abbey Guest House in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. They organise a day trip to the Thames, but Tony and Katie are still feuding, and the situation only gets worse at dinner as the evening ends in tears.

The four sets of owners discover what the other competitors thought of their businesses by opening the cash-filled envelopes, which they filled with what they believed their hosts should receive. They meet for one last time to learn who has won the best value B&B of the week.

The contest begins at the Manor House Farm in the Norfolk countryside. The guests get a taste of Libby Ellis's no-nonsense approach when she reveals she does not like having teachers to stay - a profession to which competitor Irene Willson from Sussex belongs.

Self-confessed zany couple Pete and Irene Wilson invite their competitors to Butlers Farm in Sussex, but Bridlington pair Paul Sharpe and Lou Sittler are disgruntled by the fact they will be sleeping in the hosts' bedroom. Tensions continues to rise in the morning when the guests are unimpressed by overheated breakfast plates.

Quasim and Naila Suhail, owners of the Lawn Guest House near Gatwick, host the third day of the hospitality challenge. Everything seems to be going well for them when a karting afternoon brings a sense of competition to the group, but they are unprepared for the comments on the feedback forms.

The last to host in this week's competition are Paul Sharpe and Lou Sittler at the Swallow in Bridlington. The duo are determined to put on the glitz for their guests, organising champagne on the beach and a cabaret dinner, but there is tension at breakfast as the pressure takes its toll.

The contest begins at the Swan Inn in Pontfadog, a village in the Ceiriog Valley in Wrexham. Ian and Cathy McNeill take their guests trout fishing, and round the day off with a meal in their own restaurant with entertainment from a traditional tenor. However, the morning is not as harmonious when the competitors struggle to have a wash with only one shower between all of them.

The competition moves to Bournemouth, where owners John and Chris welcome their guests to the Bed & Breakfast by the Beach. The visit gets off to a bad start when hyper-critical Jill is reduced to tears by the discovery that her room does not have a smoke alarm, and the tension continues to mount at dinner, where the hosts regale their guests with racy tales from their past.

The owner of the Lansbury on the North Yorkshire coast competes. All the guests are keen to get stuck into having a good look around her rooms after falling victim to her criticism earlier in the week, and when her efforts at playing tour guide backfire, and her breakfast fails to impress, she is reduced to tears.

The group's final destination is Charlie and Angie's Castle House in Denbigh, North Wales. The hosts take their guests to a nearby spa, but some complain of being bored, while back at the B&B, the previously critical Jill is full of praise.

The contest begins at the contemporary Fraoch House in Edinburgh, where Gareth Houston and his mother Heather Davidson hope to impress the guests with their stylish interiors and modern approach to hospitality

A pair of newlywed B&B owners invite their rivals to their traditional establishment in Marple, Greater Manchester, and hope their quaint location will be enough to secure the prize. However, their guests make it well known that it will take more than an idyllic environment to emerge victorious.

Suzy Way, the owner of a modern and unconventional B&B near Loughborough, and her sister Niki Brown, prepare an activity-packed day featuring water sport wakeboarding, and a home-made curry to win their guests over.

John Benson is the last to host the group at his B&B in Braintree, Essex, where he hopes his strong business sense and capable manageress will make a good impression. A day out at a skidpan track is not to everyone's liking, but dinner is a more relaxed affair, enhanced by spooky stories and a sing-song.

The final B&B of the week is Annette McAnespie's Hazelwood Farm in Crake, Yorkshire. Annette is a one-woman whirlwind, as she cleans and cooks everything herself in her four-star silver B&B and also provides extra touches such as homemade biscuits in each room. Most initial impressions are favourable. After settling in, hyperactive Annette has lined up her idea of fun for her guests: a cycling tour. However, not everyone feels up to it, so Peter, Jon and Julia head off to a local craft centre to make mosaics. Over the paper and glue, Peter and Jon begin to bond for the first time all week, although Jon could just be enjoying the audience. Meanwhile, the cyclists have a lovely time when they find their picnic spot in a lay-by. In the hotelier's final breakfast send off, one-woman team Annette makes hosting look easy, as she cooks and serves all the breakfasts herself with fresh local produce. Julia's only criticism is that she'd have preferred a sausage with 'more girth'.

The group return to final host Annette's Hazelwood farm for one last meeting to discover how much they've been paid and to have the chance to defend their comments and their B&Bs, before the winner is revealed. After quite a few tissues, Annette gets down to announcing the winners and the losers. It's been a week of waterworks, tall tales and breakfast scrambles, but who is going to end up with the final prize? And with the competition over, will anyone want to see each other again?

Melvyn and Sindy start the latest competition at their B&B the Pitstop in Hertfordshire. But their guests are dubious about the satin sheets and the DIY breakfast. The Pitstop is a Morgan sports-car-themed B&B. However, the absence of tea and coffee in the rooms, and the presence of the odd cobweb causes a raised eyebrow or two. Unfortunately, Melvyn's after-dinner monologue about his darling Morgan sports cars does not go down well either.

Corporate couple Gill and Peter Tydie host at their four-star in Essex, which features 26 staff to organise the bar, restaurant and accommodation. On a trip to a local fishery Wayne's behaviour once again proves irritating to some of the others. Melvyn finds a hole in the bed sheet. And following some spilt coffee over breakfast and a fairly unsuccessful send-off, Gill and Peter are left feeling a lot less confident of victory.

It's Dave 'Butterfly' Botha's turn to host, at his two-star establishment on the Isle of Wight. Tension builds from the outset as Wayne and Deborah discover that they'll be spending the night in one of the tepees in the garden... with an outdoor toilet. Dave's ace in the hole is paragliding lessons, which brings the group back together through the art of flight. Dave opts for a BBQ dinner - despite the freezing weather. After a restless night's sleep in their tepee Wayne and Deborah claim they have been served watery eggs and rubbery sausages for breakfast. How will the ever-positive host take the criticism?
