Come Dine With Me serves South African viewers season six

Come Dine with Me South Africa, premiered on 27 May at 8pm on the British Lifestyle Channel, 174 on DStv. Repeats of the Wednesday evening show will be played on Sunday evenings at 5pm. In case you miss the shows, they will be available on both of the DStv Now and DStv Catch Up platforms.

Come Dine With Me

There will be twelve episodes this season, filled with local dishes and showcasing some of South Africa’s biggest and boldest personalities. Something exciting about the new season is that South African viewers from around the world and even those who don’t have access to DStv can join in on the fun too.

The show will be launching its first virtual watch party and viewers can watch the dinner party experience on the BBC Lifestyle Facebook page as well as the BBC South Africa YouTube channel.

The format of the show remains the same — four total strangers will each have a night to host the three other guests and show off their culinary skills, entertain and wine and dine. Well, let’s hope things “pan” out. The show is narrated by the offbeat and comedic relief of voice actor, David Lamb.

On the way home, the contestants each score the host of the evening out of a possible ten points. The winner is then revealed on the last evening of the dinner party, where the best cook and host is awarded R10,000.
