00:00This week on Comdine with me, we're celebrating 25 years of Hollyoaks,
00:05a show which has seen a gruesome 96 murders.
00:08I killed you.
00:10Oof!
00:11Through a window on your wedding day.
00:13Oh, Duncan from Blue and the Drink.
00:18Oh, not the ice creams! No!
00:20Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby!
00:22And hoping to be this week's biggest storyline is Ruby O'Donnell,
00:26who plays Perry Lomax, and she's hosting at her family home...
00:30Well, I'm only 19, so why would I ever have hosted a dinner party before?
00:33But this is my first one, and I'm going to make it amazing.
00:38Also popping his dinner party cherry was Hollyoaks in-house heartthrob Gary Lucy.
00:44Enjoy your filthy burgers, all right?
00:46Who hosted an American diner-themed night.
00:49I think I got the week off to a good start.
00:51This is so good. It's a really good burger, isn't it?
00:54The pressure was on me, but I think I'll deliver it.
00:57A sentiment shared by the star of the soap's first ever seen, Jeremy Edwards.
01:02Who else are you going to have to kick something off than Gary Lucy?
01:06It was carnage, but it was a lot of fun.
01:09It wasn't until you chirped up.
01:10Just because you guys know nothing, it makes me look impressive.
01:14Charming.
01:15Cheers!
01:16Yay, to Georgie!
01:18Night two saw an R&B extravaganza.
01:21I feel like a solution, I feel like touching you, eh!
01:25Hosted by blinged-up Georgie Porter.
01:27Best dessert ever!
01:30Last night was surprisingly amazing.
01:34It actually went really well.
01:36I think we should give her a round of applause.
01:38And Rishi Nair, who plays suave solicitor Sami Malik, was loving every minute.
01:43Georgie's just fine.
01:44She's always got a smile on her face.
01:45She's got such a great bubbly personality.
01:47Of course.
01:48Ah!
01:49Stop it!
01:50This is a tricky one as to who will be in the lead at this stage.
01:53I'm going to go with Georgie, but never underestimate the charm of Gary Lucy.
01:57Well, he's not charming enough because Georgie's way ahead of him on 32 points.
02:03So, what's everyone expecting tonight?
02:05I think Ruby's a bit more sophisticated than I was at 19, 20.
02:09I think she's, er... I think she'll surprise us.
02:11I think she knows that entertainment works, so I think she's going to try and push that.
02:17Also, I don't know whether she can cook or not.
02:20So, I'm actually half Irish, so I thought it was only right to do an Irish pub theme.
02:25I've actually got the pub set up next door, and it'll be really fun.
02:30Ruby wets a whistle with the starter. Soup of the day with homemade bread.
02:34What soup is it? What day is it?
02:37Wednesday.
02:38Wednesday soup? What? Tell me what it is.
02:40If it's a plain tomato soup, then she ain't going to win with that.
02:45I'm not overly keen on tomato soups. Let's hope it's not tomato soup.
02:48It's just like ketchup that's been heated up, isn't it?
02:50Ruby?
02:51What's the soup again?
02:52It's your soup of the day. You tell us.
02:55Butternut squash. Yes. Coconut. Yes. And chilli.
02:58You sure? Yeah. Good.
03:01We're going to call it an Irish soup because it's going to be orange,
03:04and a lot of people from Ireland are ginger.
03:07It's a proper traditional Irish soup, we should say.
03:11Yes. Well, I think that's a bit of a stretch.
03:13Butternut squash goes in with the colourful carrots, coconut milk and chilli powder.
03:18I just feel like when I'm hungry, I feel like I need to bite into something.
03:22Soup, I feel like I'm just having a drink.
03:24That'll be the liquid element of it, Rishi. Stock is added to the pot.
03:29He's on.
03:31Now I'm going to make some homemade, underline the homemade, bread.
03:35Homemade bread?
03:36I mean, surely that just means put the butter on it, don't it?
03:38No, Gary.
03:39Ruby combines a bread mix with water.
03:42It stinks.
03:44Like, like really bad feet.
03:46The smelly mix goes into a bread maker.
03:49I'm hoping it tastes better than it smells.
03:51Stinky feet bread.
03:53Sounds delicious.
03:55Time for the main, burger and chips for the second time this week.
03:59She's made a rod for her own back here, because that's going to, basically,
04:02that's a, you've got to beat a Gary Lucy burger.
04:05We've had burger and chips.
04:07It's already been done.
04:08Ooh.
04:09Oh, yeah, okay.
04:11Well, she's got a tough act to follow there.
04:13Gary Lucy, watch and learn.
04:16Red onions, mincemeat and garlic powder are mixed.
04:19They smell better than Gary's burgers already.
04:22Mustard, Worcestershire sauce and an egg are added.
04:25And Ruby gets her mincing mitts on.
04:27Ooh, this is so satisfying.
04:29Squishing it between my hands.
04:31I love it.
04:32In the battle of the burgers between Ruby and Gary,
04:34I think Ruby's going to have to pull out all the stops.
04:37Gary Lucy, that is how you make a real banging Irish burger.
04:42Will I be open and honest if I think they're better?
04:45No, I'll probably just let her think that they're better,
04:48and then give her a rubbish score.
04:49Sneaky.
04:51Time for dessert, chocolate brownie.
04:53Also for the second time this week.
04:56Is this a deja vu?
04:58Is this a dessert vu?
05:02OK, so basically she's just nicked my idea then, yeah?
05:05OK, I get it.
05:06Right, OK.
05:07Mum!
05:08Here's an idea you didn't have.
05:09Ruby's roped in her on-screen mum, Kirsty Lee Porter.
05:12It's my mum!
05:13I don't know why you've asked me to help.
05:15I know.
05:16I have no idea what I'm doing.
05:17Which she proved, actually, when featuring in our 20-year Hollyoak special.
05:21It's mine, not yours!
05:23Why are you waiting?
05:25Strangely, she didn't win.
05:28The brownie begins with butter and cocoa powder.
05:31Right, this is a challenge.
05:32You have got to put a whole spoonful of this cocoa powder in your mouth.
05:39That'd be nice, won't it?
05:40You're not going to fall for this, are you?
05:42Go.
05:43Oh, you are.
05:47Please don't try this at home!
05:51Come on, did you not?
05:53Smile!
05:54You're so pretty!
05:56Some help you are.
05:58Oh, my God!
05:59After cleaning off the cocoa, they whisk eggs and sugar.
06:03This looks disgusting.
06:04This is so lazy.
06:07Shall we take a selfie?
06:09Send it to Georgie.
06:10Oh, my God, yes.
06:12Keep this skin.
06:13I've got to keep this skin.
06:14No, cheeky.
06:16Smiley.
06:17Sad.
06:18Top work.
06:18Right, let's send it to her then.
06:20I got a threatening message from Ruby today.
06:23Be afraid.
06:25Afraid of what?
06:26Is she going to poison me?
06:28I'll send one back.
06:30Whatever.
06:31That's dope then.
06:33Back to the cooking and Ruby's folding chocolate into her mix.
06:37Right, that's done.
06:38And it's ready to bake.
06:40As a participant of the 20th anniversary Come Dine With Me...
06:45Hollyoaks.
06:45I am now passing the baton on to you in the 25th anniversary of Come Dine With Me.
06:51Hollyoaks.
06:51I'm wishing you luck.
06:53Love.
06:54Laughter.
06:54Success.
06:55I'm going to go because I've got a train to go.
06:57I love you.
06:59Yeah, you've been a great help.
07:01Ruby will serve her brownie with ice cream later for the 25th anniversary of Hollyoaks.
07:05We're only 15.
07:07Right.
07:07I need to go get ready.
07:08See you in a bit.
07:13Dress code is night in O'Donnell's Irish pub.
07:18Okay.
07:19Well, yeah.
07:21That sounds like it'll be a good crack, as they say in Ireland.
07:24Steady on, Jeremy.
07:27She's not really going to river dance her way to victory at this point.
07:31The menu's not too dissimilar to mine, to be honest.
07:34So, yeah, I think, you know, unfortunately, she's going head to head with me.
07:37So, unfortunately for her, she's going down.
07:41So, I am ready and I can't wait for my guests to arrive to my Irish pub.
07:46Let's have some fun.
07:48First up, making no effort whatsoever with the dress code, it's Gary Lucy.
07:54Hi!
07:55Oh, my gosh, you're first!
07:57Wow, this is a change.
07:58I'm up early.
07:59Where's your Irish?
08:00It's in my blood.
08:02I'm not a fan of that.
08:04We will change that.
08:06Gary, welcome to my pub.
08:08This is lovely.
08:09And the bar?
08:11Yes.
08:11This is dangerous.
08:12Everyone loves an Irish pub, right?
08:14Perfect.
08:15Literally, pools, darts, drinks, these friends, done.
08:18And you said I didn't bring any Irish in me, but I am.
08:19It's literally running through my veins.
08:20Gary Lucy, zero out of ten.
08:23You came nothing in like Irish.
08:25Absolutely nothing.
08:28At least Jeremy's made the effort.
08:32Ooh!
08:33What a lovely host.
08:37What a lovely host.
08:39Wow!
08:40Very Irish.
08:41I love it.
08:42Welcome to my Irish pub.
08:44Whoa!
08:45Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
08:48I was not expecting that.
08:50The pub is really well kitted out.
08:52Wow!
08:53What a start to the night.
08:56Next to the Irish affair, here's Rishi Nair with lovely hair.
09:00I think I'll stop there.
09:01Yay!
09:02You all right, Ruth?
09:03Hi!
09:04Oh, you're sick.
09:04Amazing.
09:06A present.
09:07Wow!
09:08How'd I deserve this?
09:09Hey!
09:11How are you doing, mate?
09:12You all right?
09:12I'm good, man.
09:13Top of the evening to you.
09:15Top of the evening to you.
09:16Look at this.
09:16We've got a proper boy.
09:18Last but certainly not least, here's Georgie.
09:22What are you doing?
09:25Hi!
09:26Oh!
09:27My days!
09:29I took a while to get here.
09:30She's only got little legs.
09:31What's the crap?
09:33Oh, my God, you look amazing.
09:34Come on in.
09:34You look gorgeous.
09:36Oh!
09:37Whoa!
09:38Whoa!
09:39Whoa!
09:40Hey!
09:41Hi, guys.
09:42That is brilliant.
09:44Oh, she's amazing.
09:45Look at her.
09:46Oh, she's amazing.
09:46I think everybody loved my outfit.
09:47What's not to like?
09:48If I drink all this, I think I'll wee the bed.
09:52Welcome to the O'Donnell Irish Bar.
09:55You all look amazing.
09:56Let's have some fun.
09:57Whee!
09:59Yeah, yeah.
10:01Coming up.
10:02Da-da-da-da!
10:04Dubious dough.
10:05What should you actually put in the bread-making machine?
10:08The bread stuff.
10:09She didn't even know what the ingredients were, so I'm sorry I wasn't buying that on the bread.
10:13And barroom bar stops.
10:16Rishi wins because he did it first!
10:19I was like, whoa, like, chill out, it's just a pub.
10:22Cheers!
10:24And Ruby O'Donnell is hosting an Irish pub night in a bid to win a grand for charity.
10:28The night's got off to an amazing start.
10:30The pub theme has gone down an absolute treat, and I'm just excited now.
10:33I hope the food's all right.
10:34While her guests and their little friends settle in, Ruby gets on with the starter.
10:39Da-da-da!
10:41Look at that!
10:43Homemade bread.
10:44I think they're going to love it.
10:46And how's your soup turned out?
10:47It's a good colour, isn't it?
10:49Very Irish.
10:50I'm so proud of myself with the starter.
10:51Here it is, soup of the day with a wedge of bread.
10:54Amazing.
10:55There you go!
10:58Thank you so much.
11:01The little mmm of chilli really sets it off.
11:03You're smashing it out of the park.
11:05This is amazing.
11:05Really well done.
11:06That is amazing.
11:07Honestly.
11:07Yeah, it's really good.
11:08Very, very impressed.
11:09Oh, my God, did you guys actually like it?
11:11I was actually really shocked about the soup and what the ingredients were.
11:15Butternut, coconut and chilli.
11:17Who knew?
11:18If I was someone that liked soups, that was a good one, if that makes sense.
11:23It'll have to do.
11:24Yeah.
11:25They all said they loved it.
11:26It tastes really good, so I'm super happy with that.
11:28Super happy!
11:29Super happy with that.
11:30Super happy!
11:32So...
11:32Finally!
11:33Oh, my God, I am super happy with that.
11:37How did you make your bread?
11:39I...
11:39It was in a...
11:40A bread maker.
11:41What did you actually put in the bread making machine?
11:44The bread stuff.
11:46Which is?
11:47I put stuff...
11:48I put ingredients.
11:49I put stuff in the bread maker.
11:51I will bring you the bread maker if you wanted to.
11:55Nobody here is doubting that you have a bread making machine.
11:58That is not a question.
11:59I want a bread maker for Christmas.
12:00It's just...
12:01We're...
12:01Could you're a little bit sketchy on what you put into the machine?
12:04No!
12:06No!
12:06She's getting flustered.
12:07Distraction technique.
12:08See that?
12:09Very good.
12:10I believe that Ruby put ingredients into a bread machine and pressed a button,
12:17but she didn't even know what the ingredients were.
12:19So, I'm sorry, I wasn't buying that on the bread.
12:23I mean, I did literally just put the mixture and water together,
12:27but it's still classed as homemade because it's my house
12:29and I made it in my house.
12:31So, I'm classing that as homemade.
12:32Can't argue with that logic.
12:34Do you know a funny thing, actually?
12:36Irish.
12:37Finger out.
12:37Irish.
12:38If you take the I and put it at the end...
12:42Rishi.
12:42Whee!
12:43So it is, so it is.
12:45You guys actually blow my mind.
12:46You are meant to be Irish.
12:48The Irish, Rishi, Rishi Irish.
12:51Obviously, Irish, take the I.
12:53Put it at the end.
12:54Yeah, we do get it.
12:55Rishi.
12:56Unbelievable.
12:57Unbelievable.
12:58Yeah, mind blown.
12:59I want one of them words for my name.
13:01It's cool.
13:03I be Edav Blam.
13:04Beat that.
13:06Uber.
13:07Uber.
13:08That's nowhere near as cool.
13:10That's just your name backwards.
13:11Anyway, time for a bun fight.
13:14The burger battle actually does have me a bit nervous because Gary's burger was so good.
13:18I just hope mine's good too.
13:20They look so good if I do say so myself.
13:22Gary, Lucy, you are going down because these burgers are banging.
13:26Let the burger battle commence.
13:29Oh!
13:31Yay!
13:32Yay!
13:32That looked great.
13:33OK.
13:35OK.
13:36Sorry.
13:38And then the sauce is down here.
13:39So we have, I think that's barbecue, ketchup, mustard.
13:42I'll have some mustard, please.
13:45Good shout.
13:45It's French mustard.
13:46Do you want English mustard?
13:47French is just as good.
13:49I don't know what's the difference.
13:50Why do they call it French mustard and English mustard?
13:52Like, is it different?
13:53Maybe it's English cows and French cows.
13:55What?
13:58It's the cows!
13:59Georgie, where do you think mustard comes from?
14:01Cows.
14:05There's like a face of a cow on the front of a mustard thing.
14:07I know what you're talking about.
14:08That particular brand is a bull.
14:10I thought he was just wearing a pretty nose ring.
14:13Funny cows if you're, like, milking the mustard out of it.
14:17Where is it from?
14:17Mustard seeds?
14:19So it's just, like, grounded seeds.
14:22Like almond milk.
14:23No, not really.
14:25Why can't you drink mustard milk?
14:27Because there's no such thing.
14:29Yet.
14:30Mustard cow's never gonna happen.
14:33Oh, God, this sauce so hard.
14:35Oh.
14:36These burgers, the meat is, like, beautiful.
14:40It is beautiful.
14:41Oh, is it better than Gary's?
14:44I think Ruby's just edges it.
14:47I'm not gonna say which one I prefer.
14:49Because I have loved Gary's meat for years.
14:52But no, it's cracking.
14:53Well done.
14:54Well done.
14:54This is a good burger.
14:57She definitely beat me in the burger battle.
14:58The burger was fantastic.
15:00Do you know what?
15:01I do actually think they were better than his.
15:03Sorry, Gary.
15:05My finger is dripping with burger juice right now.
15:07Your finger is dripping with what?
15:09Look, it's just dripping with burger juice.
15:11You could be, like, the new Nigella in cooking,
15:13where you described cooking.
15:15Amazing, right?
15:17Mmm.
15:18Mmm.
15:19Mmm.
15:20Georgie can't help herself.
15:21She should be presenting her cookery show,
15:23because that woman can make anything sound naughty.
15:26Imagine me presenting a cooking show.
15:28I don't think so.
15:29I don't think I could possibly know what I'm talking about.
15:31But if mustard comes from a cow,
15:33what on earth would we all be eating?
15:35As we are in a pub,
15:37I've decided to have some pub games.
15:40And the first round is a pub quiz.
15:42Yay!
15:43I thought, oh, here we go.
15:45I don't like pub quizzes at the best of times.
15:47Which male cast member takes the longest in hair and makeup?
15:52Oh...
15:53Me.
15:53Sorry.
15:54Wrong.
15:55Rishi.
15:57It's me.
15:57Duncan from Blue.
15:59He's not in it anymore.
16:00He's not in it anymore.
16:01Rishi.
16:03Correct!
16:04It is Rishi!
16:05That is such a set-up.
16:08I am not having it.
16:09It's officially a Hollyoaks knowledge.
16:11It's from the show.
16:12Do you know what?
16:13The sad thing is, I'm actually not surprised.
16:15I've actually seen you go into make-up,
16:17come out and then go back in again.
16:18What's going on?
16:20Come on, come on!
16:21The make-up girls have stitched me up there.
16:23Don't take that long in make-up.
16:24Really?
16:25OK.
16:25I might take a little bit, though.
16:27But not...
16:28The quiz was, like, only after 2002.
16:32Well, I wasn't...
16:33You know, I'd moved on.
16:34I was in the West End by then, darling.
16:36Oh, I know, darling.
16:39After a lightning-quick quiz,
16:40Gary and Georgie are tied on one point each.
16:43So, round two, basically,
16:45first person to get the black ball,
16:47the eight ball in, wins.
16:49Whoever does it first.
16:50What?
16:50Whoever does it first?
16:51I'll go first.
16:52Attention.
16:54Oh!
16:54He wins!
16:56That's it!
16:57Rishi did it.
16:59Done.
16:59We should have ended it there.
17:00No, hold on, there's more to do.
17:02Oh, so everyone gets a go now.
17:04It went in!
17:06It went in!
17:07It went in!
17:07I think if you got a ball in on your first shot,
17:09that should be a point.
17:11My pub.
17:11My rules, guys.
17:13Step back.
17:14Oh, Gary gets a point.
17:15What for fouling?
17:16As the elder statesman,
17:18I do not agree,
17:20you can't go changing the rules.
17:22I was like, whoa, like, chill out.
17:24It's just a pub game, Jeremy,
17:26and he took it so seriously.
17:27Bless him.
17:28Rishi wins!
17:29Because he did it fast!
17:31Just like it was said,
17:32it's not hard to hit the flipping ball in the hole.
17:35Jezza kicks off.
17:36What is going on?
17:38It was epic.
17:39Those are the rules.
17:40I'm changing the rules
17:41because I'm quiz master
17:42and this is my night,
17:43so I ruin what's going on.
17:43You are losing so many points right now.
17:45I don't think anyone should have got any points.
17:46I think Rishi was the deserved winner.
17:49Well, it's not up to you.
17:51Go on, George.
17:52With more twists and turns than a Hollyoaks storyline,
17:55everyone's completely lost.
17:57So how many points was up?
17:58But at the end of Ruby's pub games,
18:00it's somehow a tie between Gary and Rishi.
18:03So, guys, as this is a dead-on tie,
18:05we need to do one last game
18:07to decide who the winner of the pub championships is,
18:10and we're going to do that with an arm wrestle.
18:13Ooh!
18:14Oh, I love this!
18:15I love it!
18:16And then we had a physical arm wrestle
18:18and it was the biggest event we've had so far.
18:21Go!
18:23Go!
18:24Go!
18:25Go!
18:26Go!
18:27Go!
18:30Go!
18:30Go!
18:32Go!
18:33Go!
18:34Go!
18:36Go!
18:38To be honest, it was harder than I thought.
18:40I thought I beat him a bit easier than that.
18:43So, Rishi, as you did win the pub championships
18:46for the 25th Hollyoaks anniversary,
18:48you do win a prize.
18:50Do you want to know what it is?
18:52What is it?
18:52It is...
18:55a beer glass from the pub!
18:57Go!
18:59Go!
19:03Go!
19:04Go!
19:05You're fabulous!
19:07Do you know what?
19:08I'd like to thank my family and my friends,
19:11and especially Gary Lucy with that weak wrist of his.
19:17I'm jealous of the fact that he had an award, yeah,
19:20because, you know, I'd like an award.
19:22I mean, I wouldn't make my mantelpiece
19:24because I've got too many on there,
19:25but, you know, I'm happy for him to start his collection
19:28on his mantelpiece.
19:29That's Ruby's mum's mantelpiece, not yours.
19:31I'm going to say fully confidently now, yes.
19:34After the entertainment and the food reviews,
19:36I actually think I actually could win.
19:38Well, let's get your pudding out, then.
19:41Right, it's melting.
19:42It's melting!
19:43We need to serve it now.
19:44Quick, quick!
19:45Let's go.
19:47Here's dessert, chocolate brownie,
19:49but is it better than Gary's?
19:56This brownie is bloody beautiful.
19:59This is great.
20:00So, Gary, I'm going to ask you a question.
20:02Not only has Ruby stolen your menu,
20:05but is she basically embarrassing you?
20:08Oh!
20:09Oh!
20:10And younger.
20:11Oh!
20:12Whoa!
20:13Listen, tonight has not been a good night for me.
20:15I'm not going to lie.
20:16You know, the arm wrestling thing didn't go down very well,
20:18but he cheated.
20:21And the brownie, well, the brownie tastes really good.
20:24Yeah.
20:24I'm going to give you that.
20:25Very gracious.
20:27Taxi!
20:27Dessert was amazing.
20:28Do you know what?
20:29It was probably the best course out of the three.
20:31Even though I don't like ice cream, and I don't like ice cream,
20:34the brownie was delicious.
20:35Good brownie, good ice cream.
20:37Bit like the rest of the night, really.
20:38All good.
20:39After the rave reviews of that dessert, I genuinely think I can win.
20:43It's a bit exciting, isn't it?
20:44It's a bit exciting, isn't it?
20:45Her starter was not the greatest.
20:46Her meme was not the greatest.
20:48Her hospitality was exceptional, and her dessert was sublime.
20:53And therefore, I give Ruby an eight.
20:57Ruby may have ripped off my menu, but she did it so well.
21:00I'm giving her eight.
21:02Good food, good hosting skills.
21:04More importantly, I beat Gary Lucy in an arm wrestle.
21:08And for that reason alone, Ruby O'Donnell, a big nine.
21:11I've had a great time in Ruby's pub.
21:15I want to come back.
21:16I've scored in her eight.
21:18Time for bed, I think, Georgie.
21:21Meaning Ruby is ringing the bell from the top of the leaderboard
21:25with a score of 33.
21:27Next time.
21:28Rishi!
21:30Bottle dropping.
21:31Oh!
21:32That was really cold.
21:33I don't think Rishi was as cold as that.
21:34And prison plotting.
21:36Get me a cake with one of those files in.
21:39But you're in prison.
21:40Yeah.
21:40No, you have to get like this.
21:42Not for my nails.
21:43If she ever comes back to Hollyoaks, that could be the opening story.
