Come Dine with Me want Liverpool contestants to apply for new series with a twist

The makers of Come Dine With Me are appealing for contestants from Liverpool to apply for the new series following the coronavirus pandemic.

The hit Channel 4 show was forced to stop filming last year because of covid-19, but now producers are ready to start filming again.

Usually contestants throw a dinner party at their own home in their bid to win £1,000 and be voted winner of the competition.

But because of the pandemic episodes will initially be filmed in a "Covid-secure venue" rather than contestants' own homes, according to a statement from MultiStory Media.

Filming will then revert to taking place inside their houses once Government guidelines allow.

The makers of the programme are calling for members of the public to apply to be on the show from locations across the country, including Liverpool.

People from Basingstoke, Belfast, Birmingham, Brighton and Hove, Bristol, Bath, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Essex, Glasgow, Gloucester, Cheltenham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newport, Oxford, south London, Sunderland, Swansea and Yorkshire are being encouraged to apply.

In order to apply you must be aged 18 or over and must not be a trained chef.

You must also be a legal resident in the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man and be currently living in the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man.

For any questions about Come Dine With Me or your application, contact cdwm@multistory.tv or find out more at the website here.

The closing date for entries is September 10.

*Come Dine with Me is available to watch on catchup on All4
