Dinner for Duncan
Having worked at Raymond Blanc's Michelin-starred restaurant since 2009, The Restaurant contestants James Knight Pacheco and Alasdair Hooper now test their skills as event caterers. Their first client couldn't be a bigger challenge: Duncan Bannatyne wants a dinner party for eight friends and neighbours, and he wants it at his villa in the south of France. Without language skills or local knowledge, can chef James and front-of-house Ali deliver Duncan a night to remember?
The Shooting Party
The pair have spent nine months training under Raymond Blanc - now they are ready to step out of the professional kitchen into the real world. This time they are joining the country set, catering for a family throwing a shooting party for friends on their country estate. Chef James is keen to put his modern spin on a six-course game banquet, while Front of House Ali needs to learn to be a butler, fast. Can James and Ali deliver the family a night to remember?
Sandhurst
Here, James and Ali are called up to Sandhurst to cater the prestigious Commissioning Dinner for nearly 300 officers and cadets.

Can they deliver a regimental dinner to remember?
The Boat
James and Ali join the corporate world, catering for design company clients with an ambitious brief. Six courses for 75 guests is tough enough, but James and Ali need to serve it in just two hours, on a luxury yacht, sailing down the Thames. Have they bitten off more than they can chew?

Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
Cops
COPS follows police officers, constables, and sheriff's deputies during patrols and various police activities by embedding camera crews with their units.
