You read it first on Food Passion - if you think you have what it takes to host the perfect dinner party - read on!

ITV are looking for new contestants in the Swansea area to take part in the new, daytime series, ‘Be Our Guest’. We are looking for couples to entertain together. They could be married, related, workmates, friends, or any other combination!

Over five days, each couple will take turns to host the perfect dinner party for their guests. The winning hosts will then go through to a finals round, and will have the opportunity to win a prize and the title of ‘Britain’s Best Host’.

We will soon be filming in your area and are looking for people with a passion for good food or who like entertaining to take part in the show.

If anyone springs to mind (even yourself!) then please do not hesitate to get in touch either by phone on 0207 261 3903 or by email. It would also be much appreciated if you could spread the word amongst your family, friends and colleagues - please feel free to forward on this email – in case any of them may like to participate.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give us and please do not hesitate to get in contact if you have any further queries.
