Come Dine with Me New Zealand was a New Zealand television reality programme based on the UK's Come Dine with Me. Narrated by comedian Guy Williams,[1] it premiered on TV3 on 15 June 2015, with the final episode airing on 7 August 2015. Originally planned to air in the late afternoon,[2] it aired at each weeknight, from two weeks after the discontinuation of 3 News' former current affairs show, Campbell Live, until the launch of Story, its new current affairs show.[3] [4] In November 2015, MediaWorks decided not to renew the series.[5]
Throughout five episodes, aired Monday–Friday, contestants took turns to host a dinner party and marked the other contestants out of 10. The winner of each week won $2000;[6] where there is a tie for first place (as happened in the fifth week), the two winners got $1000 each.
Contestants are organised from left to right in the order they hosted their dinner parties. The winner or winners of each week are highlighted in green.
