The award-winning show is back for a new series.

Every week five strangers take it in turns to throw a dinner party. But this is no ordinary supper – as the guests are secretly scoring the host and at the end of the week the top-scoring host wins £1,000.

Filmed all over the UK, hosts from all walks of life take the Come Dine With Me challenge – providing astonishing and hilarious insights into their homes and their dinner party secrets. This time, the series kicks off with a football special as four former players compete for a chance to win £1000 for charity.

Who will walk away with the money?

Come Dine with Me UK Series 17 premiers on Monday 1 August at 19:00 on BBC Lifestyle (DStv Channel 174).
