Birmingham 3/5

Flexing his culinary credentials on the third night in Birmingham is 46-year-old Mark, and his menu of classic comfort food. After a spot of flirting earlier in the week, our smitten host is desperate to impress the apple of his eye, fellow diner Martha. Will his food hit the spot and win the vegan's vote and more importantly her heart? During the drinks reception Mark's attempt at wooing Martha falls at the first hurdle, and things go from bad to worse when he forgets a key ingredient. Later Mark's rendition of a Robbie Williams classic hits a bum note and as the evening draws to a close, Mark's choice of who to throw out of a sinking hot air balloon creates a bit of a stink with one diner in particular.
