Come Dine with Me Australia is an Australian television programme based on the Come Dine with Me format which premiered on 18 January 2010 on The LifeStyle Channel in Australia. It is narrated by Aimee Reid.
In 2009, The Lifestyle Channel bought the rights to the show, commissioning Granada Media Australia to produce a version for the Australian market. The first season consists of 20 episodes.[1] A second season was approved before the first season premiered, and was broadcast in mid-2010.[2] The show is currently in its third series with a fourth, primetime series to be aired in the coming future. The fourth series involves four contestants as opposed to the regular five, in hour long episode instead of the usual format of 30-minute five episodes each week.
Format
The unscripted show follows amateur chefs competing against each other in hosting a dinner party for the other contestants. Each week over five nights, five total strangers take it in turns to cook up their idea of the perfect evening for the other four. Each believes they can cook up the perfect evening and hopes their unique style will clinch them the title of best host and the $2000 cash prize. [3]
