Four strangers from in and around Bury St Edmunds attempt to host their way to a thousand pound prize. Forty-five-year-old wedding DJ Phil hopes his evening of West Indian food will secure him the prize, not knowing one of his guests is Trinidadian born Paula, who proves difficult to satisfy. However, Paula is immediately taken with upper-class estate agent James. Final guest is American housewife Julie from Oklahoma, who has ambitions to be the next president of the USA. Night two sees James putting on an evening of fine dining, and on the third night Paula's lacklustre hosting, average food and no fun and games underwhelm her guests. The week finishes with Julie's 'All American Hoedown' featuring devilled eggs, barbecue chicken and her Grandma's pecan pie. Which of the group will scoop the prize?
