Alex Scott
Jumping in the Big Eats Bimmer to join Zuu and the boys at the manor this week, is sports presenter and former footballer Alex Scott.
Zuu knows Alex loves Asian flavours and often eats on the go, so he's delighting her with - The Scott Noodle: Chicken Kat-Zuu. To help keep an eye on proceedings, Zuu is calling on the knowledge of Youtuber, Asian food reviewer and champion of MSG, Uncle Roger.
For the Guest Cook, Alex serves up possibly the healthiest and quickest meal in Big Eats history - salmon, pre-prepared mediterranean veg, and a bag of microwave rice.
Alex has taken on some of the biggest names in football history, but today she's taking on the mandem. Once the full-time whistle is blown, the boys get their cook on and make plans for the Big Eat. How will Alex feel about her pitch side pundit afternoon tea and will a whole pie in a bagel be a step too far for the East Londoner?
Sarah Kendall
Joining Big Zuu today is Australian comedian, writer and actor Sarah Kendall. Zuu and the boys learn that Sarah once ate tinned cat food while stranded in a forest. So as a nod to that experience, Zuu wants to create a cat food inspired dish and calls in the king of canned cooking, chef Theo Michaels.
Sarah serves up her infamous 'Salad of Shame' for the guest cook. Zuu cooks up a trio of starters that tap into Sarah's diverse palette. He's serving it all up on the manor's roof as a nod to Sarah's greatest ever food moment from a holiday in Croatia. Let's just hope the rain holds off until the plates are clean!
Nabil Abdulrashid
Big Zuu and the boys welcome comedian Nabil Abdulrashid to the manor. Nabil is a cultured foodie who has sampled dishes from around the world. Zuu has heard he's a particular lover of Malaysian food, so with the help of guest chef royalty, The Roti King, the boys serve up a Roti Canai and Chicken Kari.
Time for Nabil to show off his chef skills, and after being snubbed by Greg Wallace on MasterChef he wants to redeem himself and brings a taste of Nigeria to the guest cook. A whole tilapia fish with jollof bulgur.
After a spot of fishing on the mandem's very own lake it's time to create Nabil's menu. After learning Nabil was banned from eating sweets by his parents, Zuu has an idea which will unleash his sweet tooth and tap into his love of different cultures. Since series one, Hyder has wanted to cook his family's Kurdish Dolma and today his dream is coming true.
Such a special occasion requires a special setting and Zuu takes Nabil to Kurdistan for the Big Eat, transforming the Manor's sunroom into a Hyder-approved Kurdish living room. Once the Dolma is devoured it's time for the dessert - 'Around the World with Three Doughnuts'. Can they make up for Nabil's dessert-free childhood?

When Max comes into contact with Oskar Rheinhardt, a Detective Inspector struggling with a strange case, he agrees to help him investigate a series of unusual and disturbing murders.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
