Supermarket Stakeout 6

Supermarket Stakeout is back with a new season that includes an all-star four-part Judges' Tournament.

In each episode hosted by Alex Guarnaschelli, chefs square off in three themed cooking rounds outside a real-life supermarket in a parking lot pop-up kitchen that has everything but a pantry.

To secure ingredients, competitors must be strategic and persuasive with a $500 budget to negotiate items out of exiting customers' carts.

Each week a rotating panel of judges determine which chef made the most successful dishes and is awarded enough cash for a year's worth of groceries.

As part of the new season, Supermarket Stakeout judges become competitors in a four-episode tournament for a chance to win $25,000 cash and $25,000 to be donated to No Kid Hungry.

All-star chefs battling it out in the parking lot are Antonia Lofaso, Eric Greenspan, Aarti Sequeira, Joe Sasto, Gabriele Bertaccini, Damaris Phillips, Viet Pham, Karen Akunowicz and Zac Young.

In the Season 6 premiere, "Judges Takeover Heat No. 1: Welcome to the Asphalt Jungle": The tables are turned as Alex asks judges Eric Greenspan, Antonia Lofaso and Aarti Sequeira to step away from the judges' table and cook their way to a spot in the Judges Takeover Tournament finale.

It's time to take a trip, and the first stakeout starts in Chinatown.

Then, they must create a plate that transports judges Rocco DiSpirito and Lesley Suter to the tropics before Alex challenges the chefs to turn the parking lot into a Parisian patisserie.
 

Inside Dubai

Channel: BBC UKTV (DStv 134)
TX Time: 18h05
Genre: Documentary Series

Inside Dubai

Drenched in sun, luxury and excess, what is it really like to live in the desert paradise of Dubai, an ultra-modern tax haven for the super-rich?

In this series we meet the millionaires and billionaires of Dubai, as well as the people who serve them.

We explore how the ex-pats adapt to the rules and laws of this sun-drenched city, and how they cope with the frenetic change that living in Dubai brings.

Episode 1

Meet Sonia, whose wardrobe is worth £4 million; Abu, whose car number plate alone is worth £7 million; Money Kicks, a teenage billionaire who loves wrapping supercars; and the people who serve them.

Episode 2

The property market is booming in Dubai, and so is a British property tycoon's real estate business, with his employees earning several hundred thousand pounds on a single sale.

Episode 3

As the UAE celebrates its 50th birthday and looks to the future, can Dubai keep up the frenetic pace of change?

The sheikh plans to more than double the number of tourists who visit Dubai over the next 20 years, from 20-million to 50-million, but how is the city gearing up for this influx?

Liverpudlian nightclub entrepreneur Chris Wright spent 12 years running events in Ibiza, but now he is targeting Dubai as the next party capital of the world, opening a bar in a new complex of beach clubs.

He is also benefiting from a relaxation in the rules around alcohol.

A former Miss Great Britain, Amy Kitchingman, came to Dubai for New Year's Eve in 2010 and never left.

She remembers being given a red card in the shopping mall for wearing a skirt that was too short, but she too has noticed a relaxation in the rules more recently.

And in one of Dubai's toughest challenges yet, staff at a major art exhibition are hoping to convince the world that Dubai belongs on the global stage for art alongside the likes of London and Paris.

Millionaire art lover and investor Charles is hoping to find a painting to hang alongside his original Picasso on the walls of his villa.
