00:00Hello there, how you doing man?
00:01Hey y'all!
00:03On today's show...
00:04Quack quack.
00:05Karmic clanging.
00:06I just want to cleanse the room with my tingshaws.
00:10Om mini yoho yoho shaw.
00:12Why did Joe do that?
00:14Lady Di Doppelgangers.
00:16She looked like Lady...
00:18Di?
00:18Yeah.
00:19She looked very different, she had all her teeth.
00:23And bygone Beatles.
00:24I get John Lennon appear to me a lot, it's because I play Imagine at the piano.
00:28Honestly, I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
00:32As five gallant gastronomes grapple for a grand.
00:36Veramente disgustoso.
00:38No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:45This week we're in the West Country, home to the superstitious Royal York Crescent.
00:51Good luck trying to find number 13.
00:56And hoping for a supernatural evening is actor and spiritualist, Joe.
01:01I feel very confident.
01:03I think save the best for last, for sure.
01:05I'm not saying I'm gonna win, but I am saying I'm aiming to win.
01:10Yum us!
01:11Yum us!
01:12Well, you've had your aim focused on the food this week.
01:15Beginning on Monday at holiday lover Kirsteen's Greek night.
01:19I thought it looked like dog food, I'm really sorry.
01:22I think with her comment about the dog food, I think she upset more people than it did upset me.
01:29We'll see what tonight brings.
01:31Yay!
01:32Cheers!
01:33On Tuesday at care manager Pepe's Italian party.
01:37Bellissimo.
01:38The food impressed.
01:39This is a winning dessert.
01:42But Pepe didn't escape Joe's opinions either.
01:44Didn't expect that texture, and I can't taste the garlic.
01:49Joe has been very criticism over the week about Ada's food, so she might get something back tonight.
01:55Who knows?
01:56Indeed!
01:57Wow!
01:58And things came to a head on Wednesday at Barber Lady Natalia's 90s party.
02:04I'm honest, I'm up front, I just stated that was rude.
02:06I only said once.
02:08You didn't.
02:08All right.
02:09Guys, that's at the point I leave, because I've had enough of that, all right?
02:12My relationship with Joe has been like a rollercoaster this week.
02:16She still drives me insane, she still talks too much.
02:19Cheers!
02:21But at account manager Richard's night...
02:23If they're not impressed with these, they're going to be nuts, aren't they?
02:25It was a different story!
02:27I'm impressed, Joe!
02:28I've seen a different cycler!
02:29I've also been a professional dancer, sorry, it's not a post.
02:32And it was thumbs up to the food!
02:35Absolutely delicious.
02:37Mmm.
02:37I might just be pipping everyone else to the post, hopefully.
02:41Although I'm actually not that bothered.
02:43Although I secretly am.
02:44Well, you haven't quite pipped Pepe, as you're currently level pegging with 27 points.
02:49But all focus is on the night ahead.
02:52Joe's definitely been waiting for this, like, her whole life.
02:56Just, you know, that limelight, yeah.
02:58She's, yeah, she's going to milk that.
03:00I'm expecting some mystical vibes, some channelling of some animals and mythical creatures.
03:06I'm very interested to see what she cooks.
03:10And God help her if it looks anything like a bone or a dog or anything, because I will be
03:15woofing.
03:16My menu tonight has got a little bit of international flavour.
03:19And I really hope my guests feel as though they've been on a round-the-world tour.
03:25First stop on the tour, duck and mango phyllo parcels.
03:29I didn't see that coming, actually.
03:32And that actually sounds delicious.
03:34It is a bit of an Asian vibe to that, actually.
03:36Yeah, I think that's maybe some of her travel influence in there.
03:39This isn't something I've had on my travels, though.
03:41I imagine, like, when I travel Far East, this would be the type of thing you'd get.
03:45Joe begins by scoring and seasoning the duck legs before popping them into the oven.
03:50Next, it's on to the mangoes.
03:51It's quite normal to cook duck with a fruit.
03:54We have duck a la plum, duck a la range, so now we're having duck a la mango.
03:59The Italians don't do that.
04:00We don't mix meat with fruit.
04:04It's not something that we like.
04:06Oh, well.
04:06This mango is mixed with spring onions, parsley and ginger.
04:10That looks so healthy.
04:12I suppose duck is quite posh, but you can ruin duck by drying it out.
04:17You better check them, Joe.
04:19Very nice.
04:20The duck's looking perfect, actually.
04:22It's moist.
04:23It's not overcooked.
04:24Quack, quack.
04:25With everything mixed together, in goes mango chutney.
04:28Oh, that's beautiful.
04:30And it's on to the filo pastry.
04:32So, you need to get it nice and sexy.
04:35You need the butter to just slip over the filo pastry.
04:39You just give it a light little brush and a nice little touch.
04:45Is it hot in here or is it me?
04:47Homage to Nigella Lawson.
04:49It needs a little bit of a flutter of the eyes as well.
04:52That is uncanny.
04:53Just wrap the duck up, please.
04:55I absolutely love duck.
04:58I hope the duck is not in the parcels, but I'll just dig them out.
05:02Think the clue's in the name?
05:06Voila.
05:08Blimey.
05:08Joe will finish cooking the parcels tonight.
05:12And it's on to the main.
05:14Lamb fourshanks with English vegetables.
05:16I hate Joe.
05:17That's my favourite food.
05:20I love lamb.
05:21It's one of my favourite meats.
05:23It reminds me of my mum, because my mum in Easter, she was cooking the lamb for our family.
05:27A bit of lamb on a plate with some vegetables.
05:30If they all go really mushy and it all sort of falls together in a brown sauce,
05:34it's going to look a bit like a dog's dinner, isn't it?
05:36Richard.
05:37Joe begins with her meat.
05:38Ooh.
05:40Have you ever seen such big lamb fourshanks?
05:43Can't say I have.
05:44I have no idea what a fourshank is.
05:46I know what a shank is.
05:48Natalia.
05:49Sorry.
05:50So fourshank is a different cut.
05:52The lamb rather didn't use the leg shank, which is really big.
05:55I've gone for slightly more the fore of the body around the shoulder area.
06:01You learn something new every day.
06:03I want you golden brown.
06:05Texture like sun lays me down with my monkey runs.
06:10They just need to be done lightly, so I'd like them a nice golden brown colour.
06:14Obviously, the bone isn't going to go golden brown.
06:16That's going to be a bit red.
06:18Oh, no.
06:19What is it?
06:20It's got a bone in it.
06:23Give the dog a bone.
06:25Oh, dear.
06:26Next, Joanne's stock two onions and pours red wine.
06:30One for the pot, one for me.
06:33In goes flour.
06:35After mixing, the whole thing's transferred to the lamb.
06:39That, to me, looks like a proper family meal.
06:42Rosemary, red currant jelly and a sprinkling of pepper are next to join the party.
06:47I think they're seasoned to perfection.
06:48But with all that red wine, let's face it, who worries about salt and pepper?
06:52Confident.
06:53It would have been nice if it come with salad.
06:56Because I love salad with gravy. I'm weird.
06:59Tough.
06:59It's coming with veg that Jo will add before serving.
07:03OK, let's get this delicious casserole in the oven.
07:06With the lamb left to do its thing, it's on to dessert.
07:10Chocolate amaretti delight.
07:12Like chocolate, like amaretto.
07:14It's a delight.
07:15Jo combines coffee with chocolate before whisking mascarpone, cream and icing sugar.
07:20You know when clouds go really fluffy in the sky?
07:23It's got that sort of context to it, those beautiful, light, fluffy clouds.
07:28If you say so.
07:30Amaretti sounds like a cake?
07:32It isn't.
07:33Pepe!
07:34Amaretti is an Italian biscuit, no?
07:38It's time to give a little bit of piĆØce de rĆ©sistance.
07:41Make these beauties come to life.
07:43In go the amaretto-soaked amaretti biscuits, followed by the cloudy, creamy, cheesy mixture.
07:49White Feather, did you do much cooking?
07:51Not been called that before.
07:53OK.
07:54All right.
07:54Well, he tended to cook around the fire because, of course, he's a Native American Indian.
07:58Oh, you're talking to your spirit guide.
08:00My spirit guide is always with me, and if he goes off to do another job,
08:05I just think of him and his energy comes straight to me.
08:08Versatile.
08:09Jo mixes the chocolate coffee with the rest of the cream before topping the puds
08:13and finishes with a dusting of cocoa powder.
08:17One little more of piĆØce de rĆ©sistance, but we'll save that for later.
08:21Look forward to it.
08:23That's the prep done.
08:24With just one final thing left.
08:27Will my guests enjoy the evening?
08:30And?
08:32Oh, thank God for that.
08:33I thought it was going to go anti-clockwise then for now.
08:36Yeah, we're all right.
08:37They're going to enjoy the evening.
08:38Phew!
08:39Well, Jo nips off for a change.
08:41The guests are having a ponder.
08:43Do you know what?
08:43I think that could be a winning menu.
08:45If she gets that right and pulls it off, that could be some competition.
08:47I don't think this is a winning menu.
08:50I think this will be probably the third place in the podium.
08:55Right.
08:56I'm ready to get this show on the road.
09:00First to the door, it's Kirsteen.
09:03Oh, darling!
09:05Lovely to see you again.
09:08Hello, darling.
09:09Come in, come in, come in.
09:12Before we start, I just want to cleanse the room with my tingshaws.
09:16Are you okay with that?
09:17Yeah, absolutely fine.
09:18Brilliant.
09:18Brilliant.
09:19Interesting.
09:21A cleansed space of any negative aura.
09:24Anyone in mind?
09:26A cleansed space of stress and I ask to bring in love and light.
09:31On mini-o-ho-yo-ho-shoe, on mini-o-ho-ho-shoe.
09:41So that feels really chilled.
09:44Pretty strange.
09:45And why did Joe do that?
09:48I've got a vague idea.
09:51Next to the cleansed room, Lady Natalia.
09:54I know, Natalia!
09:56Oh, my God!
09:58Natalia, we're on a cider night.
10:00That's perfect.
10:01Oh, wicked.
10:01Yep, do you, love?
10:02I do like a cider.
10:04And donning a novelty hat for reasons best known to himself,
10:07it's Pepe.
10:08Hello there, how are you doing?
10:10I'm having a theatre at the winter, eh?
10:13Come on!
10:14Don't you worry, Pepe.
10:15I didn't understand a word either.
10:17We're having cider tonight,
10:19unless you might not be a West Country cider kind.
10:21I don't like cider.
10:22You don't like cider?
10:23Now, where is?
10:23For me, it tastes like...
10:25I don't know if I can say that, but it's just like wee.
10:28Like...
10:29Like I thought.
10:30You drink a lot of wee, do you?
10:32Don't ask me, ask the morning man.
10:35Finally, here's Richard.
10:37Well, hello there, how are you doing?
10:39Good evening.
10:40Oh, Richard, you're an absolute star, I love it.
10:43You?
10:43Come in, darling.
10:44Glad you come as yourself.
10:46What's going on with these accents?
10:47Let's have a little toast to the final night and a darn good night for all.
10:52Here, here.
10:53Here, here.
10:53Up yours.
10:54Up yours.
10:56Coming up.
10:58Famous faces.
10:59I met Charlton Heston.
11:01I was coming out the toilet.
11:03He said, there's toilet paper coming out your necker.
11:06I've never heard of Charles Heston.
11:07And the cash is claimed.
11:10In fifth place is...
11:20It's the final night in the West Country.
11:23Up yours.
11:23Up yours.
11:25And the turn of actor and spiritualist Jo.
11:28She's hoping her international menu will impress and help back her the bucks.
11:33I feel the vibe is very positive, it's very strong.
11:35I just want to get this dished up.
11:38As Jo gets her starter going...
11:40Yeah, let's be nosy.
11:42Kirsteen and Pepe have spotted something.
11:45That's her.
11:45It could be maybe in 95 when she was a very famous actress in London.
11:50Yeah, I think so.
11:51She looked like Lady...
11:54That?
11:55Yeah, no.
11:56No.
11:56No?
11:57She actually looks a bit like me when I was young.
12:00She looked very different.
12:02She had...
12:05It's nice to say.
12:06I was thinking like she had all her teeth.
12:08Pepe!
12:10Back with Jo and the parcels are ready.
12:12They're looking superb.
12:15On goes the mango chutney.
12:17Excuse your fingers.
12:18This chutney is a little bit spicy.
12:20I've got some sweet, I've got some spicy, so it's all the luck of the draw.
12:24It's like spice roulette.
12:26I am totally happy with these.
12:28I hope they enjoy them.
12:30Here they are, duck and mango filo parcels.
12:34Hey guys.
12:35There we go.
12:38Oh, tug in.
12:41So guys, what they like?
12:43The duck is beautiful.
12:45Is it?
12:45I wish there was more duck.
12:47Why the mango with the duck?
12:49Duck is always in England paired with the fruit.
12:52Often plum, often orange.
12:53I like being different, so I went with mango.
12:57The mango chutney on the side was the kind of highlight for me.
13:00If I'm honest, I couldn't taste a huge amount of duck in there,
13:03but it was generally quite crispy and quite enjoyable.
13:08The filo pastry was just...
13:10It just got me in the throat.
13:12It spiked me in the throat.
13:14So that's why I didn't finish it.
13:17I have a problem with savory and fruit.
13:20It's not your fault.
13:21I love pineapple on pizza.
13:23I think it's delicious.
13:24Out!
13:25I mean, we're going to have a problem now.
13:27Yeah, we've got a problem.
13:29We're going to have a big problem.
13:32Veramente disgustoso.
13:33No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
13:35An Italian cannot eat that.
13:37What's wrong?
13:38Nothing.
13:40The mango tasted horrible.
13:42I did not like it.
13:43No major negative comments apart from Giuseppe, of course,
13:47who just doesn't quite like the mixture of sweet and spice.
13:51But he would like to know about the photo they came across earlier.
13:55Joe, I want to ask you something.
13:57Me and Christine, we saw that picture.
13:59We want to ask you, what was that picture?
14:02It was when you were an actress?
14:04Oh, God.
14:04Are you talking about my Annie Lennox Featherboa picture?
14:07But that was you.
14:09That was you.
14:09That was you.
14:10It's you.
14:10Yeah, a lot of people don't believe that in me.
14:12In my younger days, when I was photographed next to Lady Di in London,
14:15I had short, blonde, spiky hair.
14:17Much similar to yours, but shorter, more skinner.
14:19I told you.
14:19I told you.
14:21No, I said it first.
14:21I told you.
14:23I said that I wasn't looking like Lady Di.
14:26Whoa, whoa, whoa.
14:26It's like an Italian restaurant in here.
14:27Calm down.
14:28Did you just say you met Lady Diana?
14:30I was photographed next to her.
14:32I didn't actually know she was stood there.
14:35Now, that's interesting, they think it looks like Lady Di,
14:38because on my spiritual side, she is a lady that's come through to me many times,
14:42and she said she will always help me whenever I need help.
14:46And the stars keep coming.
14:47Obviously, in the theatre industry, who I met was phenomenal.
14:51I met Charlton Heston.
14:52I was coming out the toilet at Bath Theatre Royal,
14:55just, you know, coming out the loo, as you do,
14:57and Charlton Heston just came up to me in a small conversation.
15:00Now, for those of you that don't know Charlton Heston,
15:03he is one of your American A-listers.
15:06Ben-Hur, Moses...
15:08OK.
15:09Can I ask what he said?
15:11He said there's toilet paper coming out your knickers.
15:14LAUGHTER
15:17Never heard of Charles Heston.
15:19Charlton.
15:19So I wasn't actually entirely sure who she was talking about.
15:22But if she says he's an A-lister, then I'll take her word for it.
15:25Kirsteen?
15:25Being honest, I haven't got a clue who he is.
15:28Never mind.
15:30Time for the main.
15:31Oh, my God.
15:33That's heavy.
15:35Perfecto.
15:37Right, it's obviously falling off the bone,
15:38that's how I wanted it to be.
15:40Splendid!
15:41And how are the spuds?
15:42Proper rustic, but they'll have potato left in them.
15:45Good.
15:45Lamb four shanks with English vegetables.
15:49There we go, my darling.
15:53I love lamb, so...
15:56Tuck in.
16:00It's very good, it's very soft.
16:03It's falling apart, no need a knife.
16:05I actually really do not like lamb.
16:09But this, I'm going to say it, is banging.
16:12Genuinely surprised, the lamb fell off the bone.
16:14I love lamb as well, by the way, so, yeah, really tasty.
16:16And the vegetables were cooked really well.
16:19The potato, I'd be hard.
16:22Tough as old boots.
16:23I nearly didn't serve them.
16:24Oh, my God, the potatoes were like rocks.
16:27If I went through to reach, I'd probably hit reach and very bad.
16:31I knew the roasters were bad, that's not a problem.
16:34Shouldn't have served them, but, yeah, come on, we're human.
16:37I have to mention, it's the end of the week.
16:41You said my food looked like dog food.
16:44So, how's that medium?
16:46Well, now I got a dog bone.
16:48Good.
16:48I'm glad you concluded the joke of the week with a dog bone.
16:52And if you'd like some cat biscuits to go with it, that's also possible.
16:58Saucer of milk.
16:59Her face said everything.
17:03Her face looked at me as if, say,
17:04did you really have to say that?
17:07Yeah, she wasn't very happy, I know.
17:10I think Kirsteen was trying it on a little bit.
17:12I think she definitely wanted a rise out of Joe.
17:13But she didn't get one, so...
17:15I'm an egg, I can give it, I can take it.
17:18Not a problem.
17:19How is that like an egg?
17:21Natalia's got a question about Joe's musical talents.
17:23Do any, like, spirits or whatever help with your music?
17:28OK, so what spirits say is that everything is done to inspiration.
17:31Whether it be writing music, whether it be singing,
17:34there is inspiration from their side of life to ours for everything.
17:38A lot of known people are wanting to come back.
17:42Elvis is one of them.
17:43He's not dead.
17:44George Michael is another one.
17:46I get John Lennon appear to me a lot.
17:48It's because I play Imagine at the piano.
17:53Honestly, I feel like I'm in a twilight zone.
17:55I call on spirit daily.
17:57If they do that in their lives, perhaps in five, ten years' time,
18:00they'll be seeing Scylla Black.
18:04That'd be a surprise surprise.
18:05I'm so sorry.
18:07On with porn!
18:08If you can't polish a turd, you can spray it with glitter.
18:12I must try that sometime.
18:14Here it is! Chocolate Amaretti Delight with a little bottle-shaped candle.
18:18Ooh, nice!
18:23Yay!
18:29This is flipping amazing, if I'm honest.
18:33No, hands down, this is really good.
18:35OK.
18:36Really good.
18:36I'm not going to lie, the bottom bit is like, wow!
18:40That's where the liqueur is.
18:42Wow.
18:42It tasted nice, but it was very rich.
18:45Very, very rich.
18:47Absolutely delicious. Fantastic, Jo, thank you.
18:49As good as your dessert, right?
18:50Oh, yeah, better.
18:51Better.
18:52Oh, bless you, thank you.
18:53Seriously.
18:53Better than mine.
18:55Thank God they appreciated the dessert.
18:57I put a lot of effort, I put a lot of thought into my menu.
19:00I did say to Jo that it was better than my dessert,
19:02but in secret, I was actually thinking to myself,
19:05it's not actually, is it?
19:07Crafty!
19:08OK, so would anyone like to know something from their night?
19:12Hi, girl!
19:14Go on, then.
19:16It's exciting.
19:18I love the host.
19:19He's my new bestie.
19:21I actually love him.
19:23Oh, who wrote that?
19:25Natalia.
19:27Oh!
19:27That might be me.
19:30That's me, thank you.
19:30Oh, what, now you're nice to me, are you?
19:32Yeah, she loved me from the first moment, and I like her.
19:36I really like that message.
19:38I did see when Pepe opened his, and he had a little tear in his eye,
19:42and I thought that was really sweet, because I did mean it.
19:45Shall I have a go?
19:45Yeah, Rich, go for it.
19:47I was a bit disappointed with Rich's garlic bread,
19:49but it wasn't very garlicky, wasn't very cheesy,
19:52bit stale, but it was still better than Pepe's.
19:55Oh!
19:56Wow!
19:57Who wrote that?
19:58Got a feeling I know who it is.
20:01Is it all you?
20:02Is it all you?
20:04These are all your comments.
20:04Why are they all mine?
20:05They're all your comments, aren't they?
20:06I really enjoyed that little twist at the end, actually.
20:09Interesting to hear about somebody's view of my garlic bread.
20:12I'll be taking that away and taking it to heart.
20:14Why is it all mine?
20:15Can you see a theme of this game?
20:17I know.
20:18Yeah, I like that idea.
20:19I take that, the narcissism in me,
20:22I quite like that, to be honest.
20:24Right, time to find out who's won the grand.
20:27To win, Joe needs to score 28 or more.
20:30Joe Knight was OK, but that starter was horrible.
20:34In fact, I don't think I'm gonna eat a duck never again.
20:38So, for that reason, I'm scoring her six.
20:41Really good start to the evening.
20:43A little bit disappointed with the finish and the dessert there.
20:45Maybe Joe should have channelled a little bit more Fanny Craddock.
20:48So, tonight, I'm gonna give Joe a seven.
20:50Joe was a really good host.
20:52It was a lot better than I thought it was gonna be.
20:54So, I'm gonna give her a seven.
20:58Tonight, I'm quite disappointed
21:00and I'm gonna give Joe a generous...
21:02Hold it right there!
21:04To win, Joe needs an eight from her soul sister, Kirstein.
21:13So, in fifth place is Natalia.
21:19In joint third is Joe and Kirstein.
21:23Kirstein scored Joe five, which means they share third spot.
21:27It's between the boys.
21:31In joint first is Richard and Pepe!
21:36Pepe!
21:38Pepe and Richard!
21:40Good luck!
21:40I'm not gonna lie.
21:42I knew I wouldn't win if I'm a big gutted that was last.
21:46Oh!
21:48I'm really gutted joint with Joe, but never mind.
21:51It is what it is.
21:52Definitely soul sister.
21:54I'm happy to share it with Kirstein.
21:56Though I do feel my cooking has a slightly better standard, if I'm honest.
22:02I think my garlic bread was a little bit better than Pepe's.
22:05Maybe this is daylight rubbery, actually.
22:07Hey!
22:08Yay!
22:09I won.
22:10I cannot believe that.
22:11So, the Italian king came to conquer England.
22:14You shouldn't have done frozen yours this time.
22:25I was robbed.
22:27Going off to the spirit in the sky.
22:31It's where I'm gonna go when I die.
22:35When I die and your name is your best, I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.
22:57I'm really down before I walk into poses.
22:57Do not align with this.
