00:01Oh, no, I've done it again!
00:04On today's show, Coco and Nono!
00:07That's for the bin.
00:08It's open!
00:09Granny Garnishes!
00:11The rub, that's my nan's secret recipe.
00:14Like a little backstreet deal, just on the street.
00:17And Cockshaw Companions.
00:20I was in Spain at the time and I went to this German dentist.
00:23His foot was on my shoulder.
00:26It very much felt like the Danny show tonight.
00:28As five pan-toting hobslingers skirmish for a stash of sterling.
00:33Woo-hoo!
00:35I love teeth!
00:42It's the third day in Manchester,
00:45home to the oldest surviving passenger railway in the world.
00:53And hoping her knight will stay on track
00:56is dental nurse Amy.
00:58And she has lofty ambitions.
01:00I think I'm probably going to try and make it more about me tonight
01:04just because it is my night.
01:06The standard has definitely been set high, but it can only go up.
01:10Or indeed down.
01:12That standard was set on night one by palliative care nurse Paulie.
01:17Cheers!
01:19Who treated her guests to some tried and tested classics.
01:23I think a lot of people were very impressed.
01:25Hopefully I'm still in with a chance.
01:27And hopefully £1,000 may be coming my way, but we will see.
01:31Not if night two host Richard has his way.
01:35Did somebody order a crack?
01:36As he pulled out all the stops to impress.
01:40I probably have raised the bar.
01:41I put in so much effort into every single piece that I cooked.
01:46There you go.
01:47So yeah, I think the bar's set quite high now.
01:50There you go.
01:51That may well be the case, but cabaret guru Vanessa
01:53was vying for more vivacity from Richard's grub.
01:58I tried the brownies, but I think for me it was just like the chocolate overload.
02:03Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:04I would be bouncing off the walls.
02:05Richard's food was very, it's very wholesome,
02:08but I was expecting a little bit more flair and pizzazz
02:13because Richard is such a big personality.
02:16Here you go, my love.
02:17Final host of the week, Danny also detected some defects in Dickie's Dindins.
02:21I still think I can win.
02:23I don't think Richard's night was perfect.
02:25I think there's a little bit of room for improvement,
02:28but I'm also acutely aware that my night has to be spot on.
02:32That it does as Richard has taken a commanding lead with 33,
02:37leaving Amy with her work cut out today.
02:40Amy is going to be the dark horse.
02:43I can imagine she's going to pull out some amazing trick,
02:48that she'll have like some amazing gadgets.
02:51And that gadget would seem to be a small angry cowgirl.
02:55Oh, no, I've done it again!
02:57Eh-ha!
02:58Back on Bering gifts!
03:00There you go, hon.
03:02I bought the rub.
03:03It's a little bit hot.
03:04It's not going to be too hot for my guests, is it, Nana?
03:06Only if they're a little bit weak-minded, they could be.
03:09Good luck for tonight, darling.
03:10I'm sure you'll have a great time.
03:12You'll absolutely kill it.
03:13Thanks, Nana.
03:14See you soon.
03:15All right, see you, darling.
03:16Bye-bye.
03:16With my nan's secret rub, I'm definitely going to be bringing the taste of Arkansas to Manchester.
03:23The first course to be blessed by the southern state is the starter, Grandma's Homemade Nachos.
03:29I wouldn't necessarily choose nachos as a starter in a restaurant.
03:34Give me the high-end fancy ones with pulled brisket and pulled pork and all that stuff.
03:38Give me some cheap, dirty nachos with melted cheddar cheese and a couple of jalapenos.
03:44Superb.
03:45The whole joy of it is getting your hands in, so maybe that's going to be the whole vibe of
03:49the night,
03:49of just being really messy and sticky.
03:54Amy kicks off by frying beef mince, then adding the secret import.
04:00So, I'm just going to add rub now to the mince, make it really flavoursome.
04:04Not just any old rub, Nana's famous rub.
04:07Definitely say it's a smoky kind of flavour.
04:10It just goes really well on anything, honestly.
04:13Like, when people come round, they ask to take some home.
04:16Got a queue of people wanting it.
04:18Chopped peppers and onions are added.
04:20I would not know where to start home-making a nacho.
04:25And it doesn't look like you'll find out tonight, either, fella.
04:28I haven't made my own nachos, but that's just...
04:30Obviously, I had to get gluten-free ones, so I've bought these ones.
04:33Oh!
04:35Oh, my God!
04:36I'll spill everything!
04:37So, that's the nachos done.
04:38I'll just need to load them with the mince and the toppings later,
04:42put them under the grill, and they'll be ready.
04:44That's it done!
04:46On to the main!
04:48Slow-cooked brisket with Grandma's rubbed potatoes.
04:53So, Grandma's out again.
04:55Erm...
04:56OK.
04:57You need to send a brisket for six, eight hours minimum.
05:01I want it to be, like, a spoon falling apart.
05:07And Grandma's doing a lot of work tonight, isn't she?
05:10Yeah, and she's still got to fix that coat hook as well.
05:13Oh, that's a big bit of me.
05:15Isn't it just?
05:16The monstrous meat is slathered in mustard before another rub is applied.
05:20This isn't the famous rub.
05:22This is just brisket rub.
05:23I won't tell Granny if you don't.
05:26Let's them into the slow cooker for a very long warm.
05:32On to the spuds.
05:34Rub potatoes sound like they've got, like, some spices on them.
05:39Erm...
05:40They might be like potato wedges, maybe.
05:42Nope.
05:43They're boiled, drained, buttered, then granied.
05:47It smells like Arkansas.
05:50Which is a good thing, I hope.
05:52Thank you, Nana.
05:53Chopped red onions are then added.
05:55She'll reheat before serving with the brisket and some mac and cheese.
06:00Dessert is cowboy cake.
06:02Yee and indeed ha.
06:05Perhaps it's like a...
06:06Maybe like a mud chocolate cake.
06:08A cowboy cake sounds like something you'd serve at a kid's birthday party.
06:14Yes!
06:15And the first present opened is some cake mix.
06:17I'm using cake mix because it's just easier and it saves time.
06:22Buying a cake would be quicker.
06:24Amy summons up the effort to break and add eggs, water and oil.
06:29Easy peasy.
06:29All it needs is just a bit of a mix.
06:32Oh, don't put yourself out too much.
06:34Yee-haw!
06:36It's so hard trying to get all the lumps out.
06:38It's like an arm workout.
06:40That's cooking for you.
06:41Yep.
06:41The mix goes into a greased bowl, then the oven.
06:45While that bakes, Amy turns her attention to the decorations.
06:49So, on top of my cake, I've got haystacks
06:51and then little cowboy hats as well that I'm going to make.
06:54Amy melts chocolate in a pan.
06:56Is that wise?
06:57Chocolate straight in the pan is the best technique
06:59and it's the quickest.
07:00I don't like using melting chocolate in the microwave.
07:03But what about a bain-marie?
07:05I don't even know what a bain-marie is.
07:07I'm not sure it would help anyway.
07:09For the haystacks,
07:10breakfast cereal is broken up to be dunked in the chocolate.
07:13Ah, now what's happened here?
07:15Oh, my God.
07:17It's gone into a lot of cement.
07:18I've got no more chocolate that I can melt.
07:20I put it all in.
07:21It's all a bain!
07:23I'll give you the number of my bain-marie, man.
07:26Yeah, that's for the bin.
07:29I'm not sure the pan needs to go as well.
07:32The haystacks are scrapped.
07:33I'll just have to think what I can do later,
07:35but I can always rely on my chocolate-covered crisp
07:38with a little chocolate on top
07:39and a little cowboy hat.
07:41Cake baked.
07:42It's sliced in half, then covered in shop-bought buttercream.
07:46Accoutrements to be added before service.
07:48So, dress code, Wild West.
07:52OK.
07:54Bella's a theme.
07:55I don't really...
07:56I'm not sure if I've got anything for,
07:59but I do love a good charity shop bargain.
08:01I'm just going to have to dig something out of my dress-up box.
08:04What's that?
08:05That cowboy Wild West double denim.
08:08All the prep went really well,
08:11apart from the hay bagels situation,
08:13but, yeah, I'm quite happy.
08:14I think it'll be really nice, tasty food.
08:18It's heavy, isn't it?
08:20It's...
08:21There's no greens, there's no salad,
08:23there's no...
08:25lightness.
08:26I think if Amy wants to win with this menu tonight,
08:28she's just going to need to make sure that those flavours
08:30and presentation is spot-on
08:32and just give us one yeehaw of an evening.
08:35Paddle-a-doodily.
08:37Said no-one in the Wild West ever.
08:39First off, the stagecoach.
08:41Ooh, nice bag.
08:42It's Danny.
08:46Hi!
08:47Howdy, ma'am!
08:48Yeehaw!
08:49Danny looks really good on his shirt.
08:51It looks like a little children's tie.
08:53Oh, look at this!
08:54Yeehaw!
08:55Mate, I love it.
08:56I absolutely love it.
08:58Cheers.
08:58Here's to the Wild West night.
09:01Next up, it's the coral cowgirl, Pauline.
09:08Howdy, partner!
09:09Oh, I got matching!
09:10Amazing!
09:11How are you?
09:12Yeah, good, come on in.
09:14Oh, look at you two in matching pink.
09:16Ooh!
09:16Hi, Daddy!
09:17Howdy, Mum.
09:17Oh, I should have said howdy.
09:18How are we?
09:19I'm feeling a bit left out, ladies.
09:21Aww.
09:22I should have...
09:22I know, I should have got a pink...
09:24I didn't have a pink cowboy hat, surprisingly.
09:27Straight out of the salon, I mean saloon, Richard.
09:36Hi!
09:36Hi!
09:36Oh, my God, you look amazing!
09:38Thank you, so do you.
09:39Come on to me.
09:40Thanks very much.
09:41Hi!
09:42There he is!
09:42You OK?
09:43Yeah.
09:43You really the kid?
09:44How are you?
09:45You really good?
09:46Yeah, thank you.
09:47Look at your shoes as well, they're fabulous.
09:49Thank you so much.
09:52And finally, the bargain bucket buckaroo herself, Vanessa.
10:00Hello!
10:01Oh, my God!
10:02You look so good!
10:03You look so great!
10:06Hello!
10:07Hello!
10:07Oh, my God!
10:08So good to see you.
10:09You look great.
10:11Oh, so do you.
10:12Oh, my goodness.
10:13Yee-haw.
10:15I'd say we're about ready to do a Steps music video.
10:17We're about six, six, six, eight.
10:20Steps, eight, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten, ten.
10:25I don't know about dinner, but I just think we should all go line dancing instead.
10:28Well, hang on.
10:29Let's not do that.
10:30Coming up, digit dilemmas.
10:33I found myself just, like, stroking the placemat because, like, my fingers are so sticky.
10:38And beanbag buffoonery!
10:40I definitely think Pauline got into corn hauling the most.
10:44Can we say an honourable draw?
10:45No.
10:47I'm very cheeky, yeah.
10:56It's the third night in Manchester.
10:58Here's mud in your eye!
10:59Yeah!
11:01And the turn of dental nurse Amy to try and lasso the £1,000 prize by treating her guests to
11:08a cowboy-themed dinner party.
11:09I'm ready to go, and I really hope my guests are ready for a Wild West evening.
11:13Darn tootin' they are!
11:15Amy reheats her rub-laced mince, then spills all over her gluten-free shop-bought chips.
11:21Nacho effort starter!
11:23You can ruddy say that again.
11:25Free grated cheese is generously dispersed all over the mincy crisps, then sent home, home to the range.
11:31That's a cowboy joke.
11:33Never mind.
11:34Get those grits grillin'.
11:36As the oven does its business, Amy doles out the homemade guacamole.
11:41Mmm, green goo.
11:42Then out comes the tray.
11:44Ah, it looks amazing.
11:46Yes, and it will look even better when doused in mustard and Tommy sauce.
11:51Go on, go, get it all out.
11:53See, told you.
11:54There it is, Granny's nachos.
11:56It's how the West was won, you know.
11:59OK, so everyone dig in.
12:02This is the cowboy theme.
12:04My Nana's recipe.
12:05The secret rub is in here.
12:11I am going in with fingers.
12:13I'll do a finger and a knife.
12:15I'm quite glad actually everyone just likes digging in, because obviously it's a worry some people would want their own
12:19little dish.
12:20But yeah, it got stuck right in.
12:21I knew it was going to be quite messy.
12:23So I was hoping that there might be some kind of napkins or something.
12:27I found myself just, like, stroking the placemat because, like, my fingers are so sticky.
12:33I think that the presentation could have done with a bit of amping up, especially as it was served on
12:38a baking tray with foil.
12:39I think I actually may have eaten some foil.
12:42A couple of jalapenos on there, for me, would have sealed the deal.
12:46Grandma's nachos.
12:48Your grandma made nachos?
12:49Because my grandma wouldn't even know what a nacho was, I don't think.
12:51But this is her recipe.
12:53So, the rub, that's my Nan's secret recipe.
12:57She's not giving it to anyone.
12:58She's given you the spice mix for the grandma's rub, but didn't tell you what was in it.
13:02Yeah, yeah.
13:03Just like, what, like a little back street deal, just on the street corner.
13:06There you go.
13:06Don't tell anybody.
13:07Her Nan's not Pablo Escobar.
13:10She's from Arkansas.
13:11How did Arkansas become Little Hutton?
13:14So, my granddad used to fly massive cargo planes in the armour, and then they were just based in Arkansas
13:20for most of the life.
13:21The whole American connection did not expect that at all.
13:25I thought that was really nice of her to share that part of her family history with us. It was
13:30really lovely.
13:31Back at the table, Amy has a question.
13:34If I had to eat one meal for the rest of my life, it would be nachos. What would yours
13:38be?
13:38I mean, you're all thinking he's going to say chips and gravy here.
13:41Nope, not me.
13:42All rude.
13:43You took the words straight out of my mouth.
13:45You're all waiting.
13:45You're all pigeonholing me.
13:47I'm going to choose chips, cheese and gravy.
13:50No, no, no.
13:51I like Thai food.
13:52They do, like, a hot beef salad.
13:54A hot beef salad?
13:56Yeah.
13:56Yeah, it's really nice.
13:57That sounds like it's a juxtaposition.
13:59No, no, but it is warm.
14:01It is warm.
14:01The salad's warm.
14:02But it doesn't wilt the salad.
14:03No.
14:04And you could change it to chicken if you got fed up of it.
14:06That's not one meal, Pauline.
14:07I know, but I never had one of anything.
14:09How does your husband feel about that, Pauline?
14:11He doesn't know.
14:12Pauline's got a bit on the side.
14:14No, I haven't.
14:17Danny seems to not have an off button.
14:20I try my best to have social cues to say,
14:23I'm not going to dominate this conversation.
14:25I'm not going to jump in over this person.
14:27But that doesn't seem to happen with Danny.
14:29If we're all finished, I'll just take your plate.
14:31Yeah, that was lovely.
14:32Thank you very much.
14:33I think the nachos went down really, really well.
14:36Looked like everyone really enjoyed it,
14:37and there was only a little bit left.
14:39So happy with how the starter's gone.
14:41Just need to try and keep it up for the main,
14:43and then I could be in with a chance.
14:45Amy hoicks out her brisket,
14:47heats through her special rubspuds,
14:49and then hacks into the beef.
14:51It's quite tough.
14:52I think it probably needed a little bit longer,
14:55but what I need is a nice, hunky cowboy to do this job for me.
14:58You could send him down to the shops
15:00to get your barbecue sauce as well.
15:02I've never made my own brisket sauce before,
15:05so I thought it was a bit risky to do,
15:07so I just thought it was safe to just buy one.
15:09She hoses down her beef with the sauce,
15:12then out comes the mac and cheese.
15:15And there it is!
15:16Cow and carbs.
15:18Oh, here we go.
15:19Wow, thank you.
15:21Thank you, darling.
15:22You're welcome.
15:22Here we've got barbecue slow-cooked beef brisket
15:26with baby potatoes with Nana's rub on.
15:31So is everything made from scratch?
15:34Everything's made from scratch by the barbecue sauce.
15:38Richard, what do you think of the brisket?
15:39I think it's nice.
15:40It's just falling apart.
15:42Is it OK to get some more water?
15:43Yeah, of course you can.
15:44Could I grab a water as well?
15:45Yeah.
15:46I like the flavours, but I just...
15:49I need more sauce.
15:51I think that Amy's mane could have been improved quite a bit
15:54with something fresh and green.
15:56I think that everyone's being really, really polite.
15:59I think that we'd all find it really difficult to say something
16:01that's negative or even in the slightest bit constructive.
16:05For me, I think I totally filled up on those nachos.
16:08They were so boorish.
16:09I personally feel like the beef was a little bit dry.
16:12I feel that this week we still don't know that much about you,
16:15so could you tell us what you do for a living?
16:18Yeah, does anyone want to guess?
16:20Do you do something with children?
16:22No.
16:22Like a state agent, something like that?
16:25Really?
16:25Yeah.
16:26No.
16:27You've basically just called her a liar.
16:28A liar and a cheat.
16:30Someone's been gazumped recently.
16:32I'm a dental nurse, but in a dental hospital.
16:35I knew it.
16:36You said literally on one of the first things about his nachos.
16:39I love your teeth!
16:40That's where the teeth thing came from.
16:42I love teeth!
16:45Yeah, I work in a dental hospital,
16:47so we, like, specialise in, like, placing implants.
16:49I am absolutely terrified of the dentist.
16:53Honestly, I really, really am.
16:55It's that noise in your...
16:57The vibration.
16:59Oh, no, I don't like it.
17:00Even talking about what you're like.
17:02With the territory that you work in,
17:04have you got to be, like, ultra, like, brushing, flossing?
17:07I feel like it just kind of gets drilled into you anyway,
17:10because you hear it all day every day.
17:11Pardon the pan!
17:12Oh, no!
17:15You're not supposed to fuck everyone jokes, are you?
17:17But I do consistently make myself laugh.
17:20Nobody else laughs, but, hey.
17:22I had a wisdom tooth out.
17:23I was in Spain at the time and I went to this German dentist.
17:28Honestly, his, like, his foot was on my shoulder and he was, like...
17:32Sorry, was that a reputable person
17:34or just someone in a back alley with a pair of pliers?
17:36No, we met him at a bar, we were having a couple of beers.
17:38He mentioned he could do a bit of dentistry for me.
17:41I think Danny was trying to dominate the conversation
17:43a little bit at times,
17:45but I think that's just the kind of person he is.
17:47It very much felt like the Danny show tonight.
17:50With the brisket dispensed,
17:51Amy has a little treat for her guests.
17:54So, this is a game that my nanny usually plays in Arkansas.
17:58You've got to throw the beanbag in the hole.
18:00It's called Cornhole.
18:01Well, let's get us cornholing, then!
18:04Yee-haw!
18:06I'm terribly sorry.
18:07Oh!
18:10Yeah!
18:11I think we need to have a Danny-Pauline spin-off!
18:15Oh, yeah!
18:17Oh!
18:19Yeah!
18:21Can we say an honourable draw?
18:22No.
18:22I definitely think Pauline got into cornholing the most
18:26when we was drawn to end it on a draw,
18:28and she was like,
18:29er, definitely not.
18:30I need to win!
18:31This is the shot!
18:33Oh!
18:36CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
18:37Right, your prize to go with the theme is a blow-up cactus!
18:40Oh, I love anything blow-up! Thank you!
18:42Cheeky!
18:43I'm very cheeky, yeah.
18:46I didn't really enjoy the entertainment tonight.
18:48Number one, because I lost.
18:51And number two, I felt it was all a bit sort of basic.
18:54Speaking of which, time for Pud!
18:56But fear not!
18:57She gon' fancy it up some.
18:59Here's my cake.
19:00It's not quite a cowboy cake yet.
19:02I just need to western it up a little bit.
19:04And she does that by adding her choccy crisp combo
19:07and half a wheat biscuit.
19:10That's breakfast and dessert all in one.
19:13You lucky people!
19:15Ladies and gentlemen, I give you cowboy cake!
19:18So, here we have my confetti cowboy cake
19:21with a little cowboy hat
19:23and a little cereal just for decoration
19:25just because it looks like a little hay bale.
19:30It's absolutely delicious!
19:33It's like the best birthday cake I've ever had!
19:37It's got that...
19:38It's really tasty, man.
19:40It's really delicious.
19:42Yeah, it definitely has that birthday cake vibe to it.
19:44Yeah, it does, doesn't it?
19:45I just thought it was just so adorable.
19:47It kept with the energy of the night.
19:50It felt like birthday cake.
19:51I like your attention to detail with the store bale and the hat.
19:55I think the cake was pretty much in line with the rest of the food.
20:00It was all just a bit boring.
20:02But at least it followed a theme, I guess.
20:04Having revealed her scary job, Amy wants to know what else puts the willies up her guests.
20:11Spiders.
20:11Yeah, same.
20:12But I'm getting better with them.
20:13Like, I have a jam jar, like, by the front door.
20:16With spiders?
20:16No!
20:17To get the spiders!
20:19So, I had to move my room around slightly yesterday.
20:22And as I was moving my coffee tables out of the way and pushing us over against the wall,
20:25a spider about that big ran out and underneath a bookcase.
20:30I had visions of this spider potentially making an appearance during the evening.
20:34Oh, no!
20:34Did you leave it?
20:35I just left it there.
20:36Oh, my God!
20:37So, it was sat with us the entire night.
20:39How big was it?
20:40I think it was about that big.
20:41Oh, God!
20:42Oh, God!
20:42I would be...no!
20:43No!
20:44I would have been out of that door.
20:45Phobias.
20:46I don't think I've got anything particular that springs to mind.
20:52Maybe commitment?
20:53Oh, my God!
20:56Ah!
20:56He's the Lone Ranger!
20:58Hopefully, I've done enough to win tonight.
21:00I feel like everyone had a nice time.
21:02They really enjoyed my food and really got into the entertainment.
21:05So, hopefully, you know, I'll get good points tonight.
21:08Tonight, the food wasn't to my taste or standard.
21:11The hosting just simply wasn't there.
21:14The night didn't flow and the conversation was boring.
21:17I really am sorry, Amy, but it's a five.
21:21So, it's been really nice finding out more about Amy.
21:23I think the food let her down a little bit
21:25and perhaps her hosting skills a little bit as well.
21:28But I have had a really nice time.
21:30I've enjoyed myself and it's been good fun.
21:33And that's why I'm scoring Amy a six tonight.
21:37So, tonight, I'm scoring Amy a six.
21:41So, Amy's definitely not a magnificent seven.
21:44She's gone one better.
21:46Magnificent eight.
21:49Which, unfortunately, gives her 25,
21:52putting Amy in a less than magnificent last place.
21:56For now.
21:59Next time, a dinner ding-dong.
22:03What do you make gluten-free bread bread?
22:05Different flowers.
22:06Tapioca flowers, potato flowers.
22:09I was asking Vanessa.
22:10Vanessa was very good at balancing both points of view.
22:15And flexible features.
22:17I want you to imagine you've got, like, the biggest toffee in your mouth.
22:22I was a bit sceptical, to be honest.
22:24It was a bit like, how much bending can you do in your face?
22:27All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth.
22:30My two front teeth.
22:32My two front teeth.
22:34Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth.
22:38Then I could wish you Merry Christmas.
22:41It seems so long since I could say
22:46Sister Susie sitting on a thistle.
22:49Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be
22:53Eve is our queen.
22:54If I could only have you
22:54to survive.
22:54It wasn't so long since I knew,
