Season 7
Come Dine With Me South Africa returns, featuring 48 extrovert and eccentric contestants from Johannesburg and Cape Town.
The show, featuring "the good, the bad and the hungry" will continue to be narrated by the voiceover legend Dave Lamb.
The format follows four amateur chefs as they each host a three-course dinner party for the other contestants at their own home.
Competitors then rate the host's food and hosting skills at the end of each evening, with the highest-scoring chef winning R10,000 cash.
This season look forward to meeting new bold and brilliant personalities, such as self-proclaimed pug-aholic Judd, Russia-obsessed Tamlyn and erotica writer Gina.
In the Season 7 premiere: In week one the knives (and forks) are out in Johannesburg.
We travel to the urban jungle of Randburg and meet four bold and brilliant personalities: gentle self-proclaimed pug-aholic Judd, life of the party and fun-loving Caley, lover of all things 'boujee' Kholofelo, and the off-beat wine-loving family man Shamalan.
Come Dine With Me South Africa is executive produced by Kee-Leen Irvine and Duncan Irvine.
The series is an ITV Studios format licensed by ITV Studios Global Entertainment and produced by Rapid Blue for BBC Lifestyle.
