Candice Modiselle, Christall Kay, Gert
Johan Coetzee, and Lucky Du Plessis
will all take each other on to be crowned best dinner party host and win ten
thousand rand for their chosen charity in this celebrity special.
There is no doubt that Come Dine With Me
South Africa is one of the best reality shows on our television screens. Be it
you are you are a foodie, or you just love Dave's commentary, you are bound to
forever be glued on BBC BRIT and mostly share your own commentary on social
media using #ComeDineWithMeSA
Now, take one reality TV star, one
soapie star, a drive time radio DJ star and a fashion designer to the stars –
they have two things in common: they’re all celebrities and they’re all on the
premiere episode of Come Dine With Me South Africa season five.
The SAFTA award winning reality dining
show Come Dine With Me South Africa will return for a fifth
season on BBC BRIT, DStv channel 120, from Monday 11th March
at 8pm CAT with the celebrity special to kick things off. The new series is
bigger than ever with a further 12 episodes showcasing the bold, the brave, the
beautiful and sometime the most bolshie of South Africans from across
Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and Port Elizabeth, so expect
anything.
Candice Modiselle, actress
and presenter, said “Come Dine With Me South Africa was
arguably one of the most challenging but equally rewarding experiences. I’ve
always been a fan of the show and was humbled to be invited to take part
alongside my fellow celebrities. It also surprisingly revealed my capabilities
in the kitchen - a territory I very seldom explore. Throwing my first dinner
party for somewhat experienced hosts (and competitors), was definitely
daunting, but I’d absolutely relive the experience all over again."
Christall Kay, reality
TV star from the Real Housewives of Johannesburg said “I
really love Nigella Lawson and want to become more of a domestic goddess, so
thought that coming on the celebrity special of Come Dine With Me South
Africa would be a great chance to show the audience a new side of me. I
had a really good time at everyone’s evenings and am confident that people will
be impressed with my night in particular as I eat out a lot and know what makes
a good dinner party – beautiful setting, beautiful food and beautiful company.”
Gert Johan Coetzee, fashion
designer and mentor on Project Runway SA said “I am
someone who loves a new challenge. I have always liked cooking, but am much
more confident at baking, so thought this would be a good, new fun thing to try
out. I planned my evening to perfection and cannot wait to see what people
think of my couture evening as it was, in my opinion, cooked and styled to
perfection and all in aid of a good cause.”
Lucky Du Plessis, radio
DJ on 947’s Greg and Lucky show said
“I was really excited when I got asked to take part in the new season of Come
Dine With Me South Africa as I am a big fan of the show. It really is a
great way, quite literally, to see if people can stand the heat in the kitchen.
It was a fantastic four days taking part and it was a good laugh meeting my
fellow dinner party contestants, now I just can’t wait to see what everyone
thinks of the episode.”
The series that gets everyone talking,
will once again be produced by Rapid Blue and feature the hilarious and sometime
savage commentary of voiceover legend Dave Lamb. The commission of a
fifth series of Come Dine With Me South Africa is part of BBC
Studios in Africa’s on-going commitment to providing high quality local
productions for its audiences in South Africa alongside the very best in hit
global shows.
Come Dine With Me, which is distributed internationally by ITV Studios
Global Entertainment has
been produced in over 40 countries including Germany, France and Australia,
having established itself as one of the world’s most successful television
format exports, with over 14,000 episodes in many languages across the globe. Come
Dine With Me South Africa was the first local commission from BBC
Worldwide for its channels in the EMEA region, and debuted in South Africa in
2011. The first three series have been huge ratings hits and in 2013 the
programme won a Best International Format Show Award at the 7th Annual South
African Film and Television Awards 2013 (SAFTAs).
