Ex-Royal marine Ray is used to high pressure situations but when it’s his turn to host, he is literally dripping in sweat. Dream weaver Joan is horrified saying “You can’t have a dinner party with someone with the sweats.” He gets such a ‘dab on’ he has to change his shirt. Adding to his guests’ nausea, his all-British menu features scallops and black pudding towers as an entree. There’s table tension when Paula and Helen laugh at a cockroach climbing the wall and Joan mistakenly thinks they are laughing at her and calls them ‘bimbos.’ The fact that Ray bought the meringues for his dessert doesn’t earn him extra points but will his outpouring of effort be worth it?
