London: Lesley Turner

Lesley's menu was inspired by a meal she enjoyed in Australia. She reveals: "I had the main course in North Bondi when I was visiting my son. I enjoyed it so much I've recreated it."

The host says the worst part of being on the show was: "not letting my poor husband home, he suffers with a bad hip and he did not have his pain killers with him," but she's glad she met a "great bunch of people" with her pal Jill. And she couldn't stop smiling.

Lesley was happy to have hard to please Karen stay over after the dinner party: "Well apart from not enough sleep she was a really great guest."

Karen says: Lesley's meal and hosting abilities were great! There was nothing negative about my stay at Lesley's. She and Jill were very kind. I should have scored them higher
