The night kicks off with table talk of Amy's stand-up but Dave steals her limelight announcing he too is a stand-up comedian. The calibre of the jokes however suggests the East Anglia comedy circuit might be best avoided. Amy's food is described as a bush-tucker trial and looks a bit like oatmeal, but she assures the group that she is going for taste over presentation.

Super confident Richard Turnbull is out to impress, but come his night, the car salesman has his work cut out with an over-ambitious menu. That said, Richard's food is somewhat overshadowed by Carl's behaviour as he goes a step too far with Charlotte; she takes umbrage at his views on the former Miss Stafford's modelling days.

During the drinks reception Rob puts his foot in it when he forces everyone to wear slippers, and when one guest refuses he has a revolt on his hands. Rob's hosting skills are put to the test again at the table, a delay over the main course sends him into a spin and there's a right royal spot of name dropping.
