Elaine is 100% an older Alice Tinker (Vicar of Dibley) also of the insane aunt/cousin in so many classic English novels that get locked in the attic when guests come.
I couldn't do this show. Dealing with someone like Elaine is way past my endurance level. And I don't think I could muster up the courage to even go to her house. No!
Amiria Simeon she has a heart of gold deep down...think a lot of it was for show. Lakhan was the worst...none of us speak to him...I'm good mates with Isca!
Its a direct copy from an actual video Tape... you see back in the day before CD's... usb... UA-cam.... we watched video on a device called a "Video Tape"... came in all shapes and sizes.
It is always interesting to see the dishes that the contestants come up with, but even more interesting to see the mix of people around the table. I did enjoy Elaine's quirkiness and creativity, but I imagine that after a few hours she could be a bit much. I have so much respect for Peter not only keeping bees but also doing what he can to help hedgehogs, especially the deaf one he had personally taken care of. He's got quite a cheeky twinkle in his eyes, a snappy dresser, and judging by those biceps, seems quite nicely built, too, if I may say so. :)
@@Impulse735 Having never met him, how can I possibly 'love him' ? As I said, I simply admire his humanitarian qualities and find him quite charming and physically attractive. And FYI I am already in love with my husband, and have been for almost 20 years :) x
@@beemanbenefer aw, thank you. This planet needs more people, who, in whichever way they can, no matter how big or small, actually try to make our world a better place. Much respect to you, mister :) x
Bel Lita This was an odd group. I don't think any of them liked anyone or could cook. The Latin lady said "at least I didn't come in last" taking one last jab at the older lady. Why would anyone cut their hair at the table?
I think Elaine got bullied for being different when she was young. Now her mentality is she will not care what people think and as such she feels free to say whatever is on her mind. By doing so she proves to herself that she doesn't care what others think. But you hold back on comments not for your own sake but for someone else's sake. If you are unwilling to give compassion to others, others are less willing to give compassion to yourself. I hope one day she realizes that. The others guests should have been less cruel to her as well.
Peter Benefer just curious, what is so awful about lakhan? He comes off relatively alright on the show but there's something off about him I just can't place
Swasti Ray he was just very narcissistic...very full of himself. Elaine is actually a lovely person, she helps all sorts of people on her travels about the world...very kind....just not the best dinner guest!
The last episode I watched was from 2011. Selfies and narcisstic traits are now prewailing and it's a bit sad. I like Elaine and I think she's wonderful. She's got depht which is rare these days. And, she's not a bad person at all!
Well I liked Elaine, she seems like a lot of fun, her art work is vibrant Just like her personality, she is rocking out her sixties in her own way and more power to her.
Ooh Peter Bee Keeper is in a huff cos he knows everyone loves a good curry!!! 😂 Also, having lots of Indian friends their home cooking is NOTHING like the takeaway curries we’re used to so don’t expect it when you dine in their home!
The distaste each of them had for one another was so palpable. All the insults and critiques being said aloud at the table was absolutely wild. This group HATED one another 💀
It really baffles me how someone who's vegetarian or vegan decides to make meat on their night. Just to "impress"? the others? I'm sure the other contestants would much rather get a glimpse into the host's lifestyle by some amazing non-meat dishes, rather than being served something the host doesn't like.
I understand your sentiments, however the usual reaction from the meat-eaters on this show is that they go the extra mile to prepare a veg dish for the non meat-eater therefore the non meat-eater should return the gesture for them. People that enjoy meat don't usually appreciate veggie dishes no matter how well they are prepared.
Hello from Malaysia! I love this show..been binge-watching it. I actually feel that while Elaine may grate..she seems like a really kind person. Wouldn't hurt a fly and without a malicious bone in her body. Just direct. Props to her for cooking a chicken. Peter and Isca were fun and seemed really nice. I would be fine with someone dropping lead balloon jokes at my dinner party..it just adds to the fun I feel. Lakhan is a pompous ass who is absolutely unfit to grace anyone's home with his douchey attitude. As a fellow Indian, I can safely say his food was basic at best for all the fuss he made of it. And really..who serves chapati without any kind of gravy??? Dave Lamb and whoever edits and chooses the music are AMAZING. Thanks for uploading! Now off to my next CDWM!
I recognize Peter from somewhere and I can't put my finger on it quite yet, or at least he resembles someone that I just can't recall. Elaine is like no one I've ever met, seen, or heard; truly one of a kind. Lakhan seemed nice until he opened his mouth divulging his narcissistic attitude. Last but not least is the Latin lady that was very vivacious, warm and very welcome along with Peter at my dinner table. BTW, are hedgehogs an endangered species? I don't think they are, because they are a blight on farmers's crops.
Hi Sheri Stewart, I dont believe weve met. Im based in the uk. Hedgehogs are endangered in the UK, what crops are they a blight on?! They arent herbivores you know?!
@@beemanbenefer I'm in the USA, and I don't believe we've met either. I saw a crime show here on YT wherein this lady moved from London and was feeding hedgehogs from her back door that upset the local farmers in the village to the point they were threatening her and avoiding her in the village. True, a hedgehog conservation group came to her aid. I can't recall why the farmers objected to hedgehogs, and I can't recall the title of the show, other than it was a crime, mystery, reality type show.
Haha. Well I had isca with me when I watched the episode! I thought Lakhan was a total douche, but felt that about him when I met him before the screening. Yes I'm single, wanna meet?! X
@@beemanbenefer Wow ! Hello. I just saw your response. So sorry. I hadn't activated my notifications. That's crazy. I always thought they should do catch up episodes or rewatch episodes with participants. Would have been interesting to watch your reactions live..."Gogglebox" style. Haha I totally would have met but I got married during COVID. Hope you're well 🙏😊💜
watching this in 2023 and ALice seems like the most genuine - others seem like "nice" people bit totally fake. Prob why the world is in such a state these days, sadly.
I don’t understand why people want a boring dinner party ? Like u need people like Elaine to make it memorable. Bee keepers food was fine I don’t know why the other bloke kept whining
You would think brittish folk would have better manners? Good grief.... I'm super thankful to my parents for atleast teaching me basic table etiquette and manners
Please have someone check the food and of the contestant cleaning of the kitchen. Finding hairs,nails and flies in restaurant food can course them to be closed by the board of health🌮🍯🍤🍽
@@beemanbenefer I can totally believe that! She doesn't seem mean.. just very odd! Now let's be honest who poached your eggs?! 🤣🤣 seeing you punch open a egg yet somehow everyone has perfectly poached eggs when they cut into it !??
I do quite like and understand Elaine maybe its because I'm an aquarius and i could be quite witty and eccentric ...aaaww she's her own person and she embraces it with no apologies that's just her😊😊
I love our narrator! his humour! His wit! His Sarcasm!! I am rollin on the floor
Atlegang Mmeti I lovvvvvve him
David Lamb the best voice over man in the business...
This narrator is EVERYTHING!
Shevaun Morvan true story!
He really is. He's part of the reason why I love this show so much.
sameeeeeeee
Shevaun Morvan i
DJ is the icing on the narrator's cake :D
The British passive aggressiveness is what makes this show.
😂😂😂😂💯
Dave Lamb just makes this show the best.... he is awesome!
The editor of this is a genius. That narrator ia ridiculously funny
definately agree! and the music choices are classic too
Elaine is 100% an older Alice Tinker (Vicar of Dibley) also of the insane aunt/cousin in so many classic English novels that get locked in the attic when guests come.
They need to lose the key.
@@Victoria-gq8gt Savage 😂😂😂
Don't be so mean to Alice Tinker!
Elaine is like the kid in class that the teacher lets sit right in front by the desk so they can keep an eye on...she’s flipping everywhere lol
Did anyone else find the ending credits song after Elaines singing very fitting.. or is it just me? 😂😂😂
Sapphire Galaxy shit your mouth, shut your mouth! Haha! Hilarious ending! Xx
For me it was when she was arriving at the first house😂
Poor Peter was so horrified at the hedgehog song and I don’t blame him
Isca is quite lovely, reminds me of Minnie Driver.
gabnsab she is indeed!
The tip toe playing while Elaine was walking in , too fuuny , idk why 😂
Wow ! So much nastiness. BUT I am addicted to Dave Lamb’s priceless comments.
I couldn't do this show. Dealing with someone like Elaine is way past my endurance level. And I don't think I could muster up the courage to even go to her house. No!
Nicole Williams your loss, the world is full of people who probably don't live life exactly like you,.
I would struggle with Elaine. The reference to poo did it for me...
Amiria Simeon she has a heart of gold deep down...think a lot of it was for show. Lakhan was the worst...none of us speak to him...I'm good mates with Isca!
Tilly Divine Cheers babe xx
I love curry night ! This group needed a to spice up their night & week.
I’m wondering if anyone is getting long blackout screen intervals during this upload? 🤗
Edit ✍️ Thanx for clearing it up for me everyone. 💗
Yes, I am!
Its a direct copy from an actual video Tape... you see back in the day before CD's... usb... UA-cam.... we watched video on a device called a "Video Tape"... came in all shapes and sizes.
Yes, I suspect it's from the ad breaks that would be there if it were on cable 🤗 hugz!

Thank you ... please add more. I love my CDWM
Mumma Bear this was the only episode I featured in I'm afraid
ELAINE is a NIGHTMARE!!!
She owns you cuck
They need to stop criticizing the food in front of everyone at the table. They have time alone with the cameras in the cab ride home.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say, I bet Elaine lives alone.
prsgirl What was your first clue?
OMG that ending song! Lol it's perfect!
Hahahahahahhahaha Eline singing to the deaf hedgehog ahhahaahhahaa
Where did you find some of these people ? Craigslist ?
Bel Lita This was an odd group. I don't think any of them liked anyone or could cook. The Latin lady said "at least I didn't come in last" taking one last jab at the older lady. Why would anyone cut their hair at the table?
Bel Lita thinking the same lol 😂
LMHO
😂😂😂
The singing.. jesus!
Elaine would do good in India. We love our chatty aunties here.
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine! What a character! I wonder if she has any friends?
Elaine is crazy ...where do they find these people?
The narrator just kills me and I found peter to be funny too....elaine u r too much lol
rizzy May why thank you m'lady! They cut all of my funny jokes!
Peter Benefer the part u said spices will get u into a coma😂😂😂😂😂killed me
Peter was the most polite and civilised.
Elaine reminds me of Tobias as mrs. Featherbottom.
who'd like a banger in the mouth?!?!?!?
TheGooglyminotaur i love arrested development. new series now
Little Haiku was really traumatised 😂😂😂😂
Sing along time 25:27 whatever shes on i'll take some ;). Also, If that was Sonic the hedgehog ..Then he would be way outta the room by now.
Peter's EYES are sooooooo LOVELY:):) ...
Thanks Barbara!!! X

This was hilarious..I laughed so hard the whole episode...that women singing to the hedgehog lmaoooo
So So happy the Indian guy didnt win. He was rude and had to find fault in everything. Elaine .. :O ... So glad the money is going to the Hedgehogs :D
Tharaa S Watters thanks!!!! Me and the hedgehogs salute you...nobody is in touch with Lakhan since the screening of this by the way x
Peter Benefer just curious, what is so awful about lakhan? He comes off relatively alright on the show but there's something off about him I just can't place

@@beemanbenefer what is it like behind the scenes? Anything that would surprise us?
@@MrsMary101 hi Mary, I dated Isca for a while. Don't know if that counts as surprising or not?! X

I like Elaine and I think she's wonderful. She's got depht which is rare these days. And, she's not a bad person at all!
Truth! I loved her
Well I liked Elaine, she seems like a lot of fun, her art work is vibrant
Just like her personality, she is rocking out her sixties in her own way and more power to her.
Bullshit she's an obnoxious twit!
Isca is glamorous.
Ooh Peter Bee Keeper is in a huff cos he knows everyone loves a good curry!!! 😂
Also, having lots of Indian friends their home cooking is NOTHING like the takeaway curries we’re used to so don’t expect it when you dine in their home!
Ty for the ul, glad I was not at these dinners ;))))
oh no i just started watching .......
Katzy Baby I know how you feel!
Yes. It was, thanks!
Watching this in 2024, Elaine is neuro divergent ❤😂
Elaine's teeth are making my stomach turn
Her teeth literally look like she's never brushed them
a day in her life
At least at 62 she still has all her teeth
When she smiles i think of a piano i dont know why.
Thank you❤️

Roux Harbour i would rather have a primo vegan or veg dinner. yum and different to your norm
Elle Dix yup. they would have complained because this group didn't like each other at all.
That was...a lot of information.

elaine is making me viscerally angry
She's got a good heart in real life though. Honestly!
Good for the hedge hogs they need our protection......
janswed09 andersson Thanks! Every little helps eh?
All of the animals need our protection. They are all entirely at our mercy and rely on our empathy and kindness. Please, be vegan :)

After 16 years in Canada, I realize I really miss true British eccentricity.
I would have been scared to go to Elaine's home 😂
I'm very surprised that Peter didn't say that Lakhan's night was okay but his food was lackin...!!
Genius! I wish I had thought of that!!!
Say what you will about Elaine, I know I did..BUT at least she tried to make meat for them, most vegies wouldn't.
Peter is petty asf, Elaine is still on a acid trip and the Indian guy Rude. I like the other girl she’s cool
Jason Long fuck you Jason! Haaa. I won!!
Peter is perfectly balanced and draws attention to bad behaviour. Nothing petty about that. I think you don't understand the meaning of the word.
The song during the credits was perfect!

the money went to HERBY (Hedgehog Emergency Rescue Bingley Yorkshire)!
Pete is a cross between Jamie Oliver and my nephew! I can’t help but stare at his face in awe 🫢
Hahaha. I always get compared to Jamie Oliver!!! X
Peter was a real knob.
Wondering if Elaine may perhaps be on the autism spectrum…..
Wow...no words for this one...
This group sure liked to put each other down....
i have nice floaters lol
Sadly, something just doesn't seem right with Elaine. Oh dear.:/
Margot Slaughter. she has been disturbed by something great. and that smile is covering it all
This elaine woman... jeezzzzz
Amanda A she is doing her own thing her own way, and I say good for Elaine.
The video stops

Elaine is so sweet...I am going to get a photographer like her for my wedding day pictures
No offense but all the indian cuisine on this programme is always the same...presented the same....sigh
I agree...that's why I gave the bitch a 6!
I’d ask Elaine to leave my house
Please have someone check the food and of the contestant cleaning of the kitchen. Finding hairs,nails and flies in restaurant food can course them to be closed by the board of health🌮🍯🍤🍽

How did Elaine grab a spot on this show? What a disaster! Worst show ever.
Lakhan could cook for me any night.
Don’t bring animals to the dinner table, please!
Lakhan is super hot
