So here's some exciting news! I (with my Partner) are through to the next round of applying for an upcoming couples episode of Come Dine with Me.
It was such a coincidence because it was only a couple of weeks ago we were having a discussion about what TV shows we'd apply to be on. My partner suggested Take me Out (slightly worrying), so I said I'd much rather be on Come Dine with Me. Literally a few days later Come Dine with Me Tweeted us saying we should apply (and so we did).
After getting through the phone interviews we now have a couple of producers coming around tomorrow to interview us in front of a camera. After which, we'll know whether we've been picked or not out of a group of 20 couples.
Unfortunately that's all we know for now. If we get through, recording will be in early March with two other couples. Which means I seriously need to start thinking about what we'd serve up for starters, main, dessert, and of course entertainment!
I think what would be fascinating is to see how we react as a couple in front of the camera and with two other couples in our company (which we may or may not have too much in common with). I also love Dave Lamb's narration on the show as he never fails to make anything anyone does or say a comedy moment.
If you have any ideas on things we could cook, things we should wear, or dare I say it, things I should make sure are left out around the house when the dinner guests have a peak around, be sure to leave a comment below!
I'll be sure to keep you posted on my blog on how we get on and whether you're likely to see my debut performance on national TV any time soon! But until then, I'll leave you with one of many hilarious clips from the show (lets hope this doesn't happen)!
