00:00Let's have some fun
00:02on today's show
00:05Far Eastern foul I'm using chicken thighs for my curry because it's from Thailand a
00:13Pop performance
00:15My first job was to take that and Westlife tribute and it's like flying without me
00:23It's got beautiful singing voice. He hasn't got the best talking voice and job japery
00:30You know daddy, I had you down honestly as a librarian. Okay
00:35To me it made perfect logic as five gallant guzzlers grapple for a grand
00:43It doesn't look like a lot but a little dribble goes a long way
00:53It's the final day in Manchester where in
00:551917 a method of splitting the atom was first discovered not by this guy
01:02And hoping their night doesn't bomb is this evening's host professional singer Danny. I'm gonna make some dinner
01:10And I'm gonna be the winner
01:13I've got a good menu if I can put it all together execute every item
01:18The way I know I can easier said than done
01:21I still think I still think we've got a chance of uh
01:24Being top of the leaderboard
01:27Top after her night was our first host palliative care nurse paulie
01:31They look lovely
01:32I mean i need that off a flip-flop like that
01:36Whose dinner party know-how saw her hitting all the right notes
01:41It'll be lovely to win yeah be really over the moon if I won it's hoping
01:47Second up was plumber and adult merchandise designer richard
01:52Who's homemade food how easy is that homemade pasta
01:56Chef's kisses meant his evening didn't drag
02:02Whatever position I come in this week I'll be happy with because I don't think I could have done anymore
02:06Well all your efforts left you the one to beat with 33
02:14Midweek saw cowgirl and dental nurse amy take the reins
02:18I love teeth
02:20But the lacklustre packet food wasn't the ride her guests wanted
02:24I'm feeling quite confident just because of how the night seems to go
02:28I still feel like I've produced a winning night and I've got a chance of winning
02:35Last night cabaret artiste vanessa put on a speakeasy show
02:45But it was more speak over than speakeasy when it came to chatterbox danny
02:50What do you make gluten-free bread with tapioca flowers potato flowers I was asking vanessa
02:58With danny I'm like felt like my eyes were rolling into the back of my head the bulk of last
03:02night
03:02And I just had to say something and the jives kept coming one of my jobs
03:07And is I'm a special voice-over artist can't imagine danny it's anyone wanting to grow over
03:15Very rude I think I pulled out a winning night because it was a bit unusual and everyone really seemed
03:21to enjoy it
03:22It wasn't quite enough to trap top spot though with a score of 32
03:27So danny's got it all to do tonight i'm going to be well behaved
03:34Richard might try pushing my buttons but he won't get anywhere i'm too uh no i know what he's like
03:39i think danny's gonna go absolutely posh i'm definitely expecting from danny's menu chips and gravy
03:46danny so yeah it's loosely based on uh me and my travels and my life and places that mean a
03:52lot to me
03:54and first on danny's world tour is the starter a tapas of meatballs chorizo croquettes garlic and chili
04:00prawns and padron peppers i think i had danny down as a bit of a beige buffet kind of guy
04:07which you know spice it up turn turn the notch up on it a little bit and that's what we've
04:12got as a
04:12starter we've had chorizo already this week but yeah i like that lucky for you danny's starting with
04:19his chorizo i mean it is chorizo but you sound a bit of an idiot if you say that how
04:25rotty dare you
04:28slightly well done but it'll be absolutely fine and i'm going to save this lovely fat to make my
04:33bechamel sauce which he makes by adding flour and milk look at that nice and smooth now
04:41in goes the chorizo and manchego cheese and the mixture's shaped into small sausages
04:48before being dipped in flour egg and bread crumbs what do you call a uh a female crocodile what croquette
04:55oh rubbish you said it elton john's actually a big fan of tapas his favorites the the croquette man
05:05oh all right that's quite enough of that the croc's ticking they'll be deep fried before serving
05:11the meatballs and prawns are really easy to do like i'll do them midweek like for tea
05:16well tonight it's the end of the week but you're still having them for tea in with the beef no
05:22yes and graces for this you've just got to get your arms in and get it get it all mixed
05:26together
05:27the mince onion herbs and spices get a mix along with breadcrumbs before being sphered a beautiful board of
05:34baby bowls they're browned along with the tomato sauce before some prawn poop plucking no one wants
05:41a poop fruit in the prawn do they well quite he'll fry his prawns and peppers fresh tonight
05:47the next flight to catch is to the far east for thai green curry with egg fried rice i've had
05:54obviously thai green curry many times even in thailand um so yeah um i know what to be looking for
06:02so we've gone from spain to thailand it's like a trip around the world for the curry paste a plethora
06:10of thai aromatics including galangal and lemongrass get a good old bash
06:19i do love um a curry in all of its forms i'd like a different kind of cover like i'm
06:27more like
06:28like just a regular chicken curry with onions and peas in it a really mank version of a thai curry
06:35might green chili be a little too exotic then i'm not going mega spicy because i don't want to take
06:42people's faces off how very hospitable it's blended in despite having a nice little sun tan i'm still
06:48feeling uh still feeling a bit pasty better get it on the heat then oh yeah nice sizzle smells good
06:55already in go red onions smells of thailand or as the locals might say lovely jabley yes i'd brush up
07:05on your thai he adds coconut milk which the chicken will poach in later tonight i'm using chicken thighs
07:11for my curry because it's from thailand that one was actually quite good that's all he can do now
07:18so it's on to dessert golden syrup sponge with custard where's that from so we've gone from spain
07:24to thailand are back again to the uk ah the uk of course oh that's so adorable that's so
07:32wholesome i did a sponge so it's going to be battle of the sponges
07:37who's got the better sponge well he's not getting his out of a packet for a start it's
07:42an old recipe it's always been in the family my mum makes it excellent my grandma used to make it
07:46excellent and it's one of the few desserts that i really showed it up i can't mess this up i've
07:50really got to focus and so he does firstly on butter and sugar before adding vanilla extract it
07:59doesn't look like a lot but a little dribble goes a long way yes he cracks in eggs along with
08:04ginger and
08:05flour this is where i could mess it up and it's becoming a bit heavy you want it to be
08:10really
08:11light mixture lightly folded now for the golden syrup easy squeezy the sponge batter plops on top
08:19i presume he's made his own golden syrup sponge that's yeah that's not exactly dead straightforward
08:26if he has to steam it and things not quite so i'll leave those there for now so i'll microwave
08:32those
08:33before serving and hopefully after four minutes they'll be light and fluffy and delicious right
08:37let's rock and roll indeed off your pop feeling the competition danny's menu is potentially a winning
08:44menu i would say yes right we're all set let's have some fun first into the fun house is richard

10:42level that everyone's attained this week which has been pretty high with his prawns cooking yes

10:52some bits and pieces oh wait wait no way this is brilliant oh no oh my goodness that is danny
11:04leading tribute to the boy band take that he is in a take that tribute
11:10i thought he was an estate agent back in the kitchen it's tapas time just gonna warm things
11:19through plate them up bosh on the table bosh meatballs heated padron peppers fried
11:27and the prawns are well and truly cooked mate i'm not being funny that's really tasty

11:45oh wow wow wow well there we go tuck in please have yourselves thank you so much
11:56it's delicious it's very um authentic thank you feel like i'm on holiday just out of interest did you
12:05cook the prawns from raw or were they cooked from raw yeah from raw yeah the prawns were overcooked to
12:13the point where they were like bullets i think it was a really good starter definitely impressed that
12:19he managed to smash it out of the park with so many different things going on at once so what
12:23made you decide to do a spanish starter well so you used to uh do a bit of work in
12:28spain but when
12:29we did get a night off we'd we'd go out and and just sit and have a long languid evening
12:33i just
12:34want to bring it back to work work yeah yeah talk to me about take that i'm a singer that's
12:42what i do
12:43is my job but my first job was yeah was a was a take that and westlife tribute yeah we
12:50did a bit of
12:50oh did you have to sit on the chairs and stand up at the at the bridge and then it's
12:55like flying
12:56without me yes we did oh mate it was it was it was really cringy it was it was really
13:03cringy
13:04he's got a beautiful singing voice he hasn't got the best talking voice it's a bit harsh
13:10you know daddy i had you down honestly seriously as a librarian okay i did you did because you see
13:18i can clarify why you seem to know a lot of thing information about different sort of things yeah
13:26i'm also outstandingly loud pauline and that's the real really a real issue
13:34i thought that was because you had to be quiet at work to me it made perfect logic
13:40to everybody else probably not i thought you were an estate agent
13:46well that's a bit rude librarian and estate agent you're not a librarian estate agents have a bit
13:53of a bad rep don't they well richard it's been nice having you um here we go down we go
13:59have a nice
14:00evening see you later thank you yeah he's got a two bed down the road to check out just come
14:04on the
14:04market dan he's got everything it needs to be an estate agent
14:11we're gonna have to come back to you really pleased with the starters that was quite laborious in
14:15terms of five six different elements
14:20danny could be a really good estate
14:24let's just crack on shall we danny main's a little bit more simple there's only a couple of
14:29things to do so she'll be playing sailing chicken on danny adds veg yeah there's gonna
14:34poach and the cocoa jumbo milk before frying rice with spring onion sesame oil soy sauce
14:41and eggs spill some on the top if you want you know that's what the pros do
14:46it's all spooned on garnished with coriander if voila in a hurry tie green curry indeed don't worry
14:55there it is dry green curry there we go wow wow i've made it like medium spice okay yeah
15:10is that coriander okay i think coriander tastes like bleach
15:17hmm i'll take off i just ate an entire piece i really love coriander i like anything with like
15:23really bold flavors um so this is really fun i love it i don't like thai green cover sorry to
15:31be
15:31like that one person but yeah the rice is really really nice thank you no problem i thought it was
15:36very authentic i've been to thailand quite a lot you said yeah he made a good job of it my
15:41main was
15:42all right a little bit unfortunate that two of the guests don't like thai green curry i mean i
15:47couldn't have foreseen that can i ask you do when you were in the group did you ever have any
15:53groupies
15:54following you um yeah you probably did a little bit yeah you know i mean i was i was i
15:58was i was
15:59younger and fitter and slimmer no way pauline never means any harm it was just the way she comes across
16:10like it just makes you laugh because you just know that it's just harmless seeing her like totally go
16:16into forearm party mode i need a drink has been absolutely fantastic to see with pauline making a
16:25name for herself it's time for professional crooner danny to headline what will he sing a bit of buble a
16:31whiff of west live this little rascal well i didn't see a kazoo lesson coming so yeah so if you
16:39try
16:39do do do do perfect so you've been in a tribute band and i'm sitting there chuffing on a kazoo
16:52i think
16:53you're doing it wrong i was hoping he would sing for us yeah because that would have been a nice
17:08ending to everything well he is kind of singing i just sort of stripped it back down to just having
17:15a little bit of silly fun and everyone embraced it which is great i was expecting more if i'm being
17:21honest how about a microwave dessert fingers crossed oh it's nice and spongy moment of spongy truth
17:32then okay okay i'm pleased with that i'm pleased with that mum will be proud it's joined by some
17:39microwaved custard and it's micro done golden golden syrup sponge and custard hey here we go here we go
17:50thank you wow this is my mom's uh syrup sponge that came from her mom so it's grandma's recipe it's
17:58an
17:58old recipe it's so so good good yeah yeah oh good i'm really pleased yeah it's microwaved it's a bit
18:06weird that you think normally sorry you microwave it's microwave from raw to hear that a dessert had been
18:13made in a microwave with a shop bought custard wasn't the best of things to have heard i'm not a
18:21big fan
18:22of things cooked in a microwave i did wonder when he said it was his grandma's did she have a
18:27microwave
18:28back in the day i don't know well now it was invented in 1945 so it's possible yeah i definitely
18:34think i've ended on a high i think the dessert was i thought it was delicious maybe we'll we'll be
18:38knocking on the door we'll see not long but there's just time to find out what people thought of
18:44their nights pauline champagne oh read out loud i'm gonna cry oh pauline was horrible oh quite in a
18:55good way that's good i thought she was absolutely fine pauline is the equivalent of a big warm hug
19:01oh yeah that was me by the way do you want pain now or later genuinely do you feel that
19:08you are
19:09very kind of you the equivalent in personality of a big warm hug i was very fortunate to have a
19:15very
19:15nice comment how lovely and that was from richard which was very kind of him yeah it was nice the
19:21fact
19:21that i now know what a plumber looks like it's totally changed my perception of like plumbers and
19:28handymen i'll take that tell me who it was that's a great comment it's really empowering it was
19:47really really nice to hear overall i think i did pretty well for my night let's see you need 33

20:12really really let it down so tonight i'm going to give danny a six i've had a fabulous night tonight
