Competitive food show. The Karim family from west London go up against the Dawes family from Hampshire. Will the Karims, with their Indian recipes, curry favour with the judges?

Presented by Zoe Ball and Nadiya Hussain, this competitive food show celebrates the families who make ordinary food extraordinary. Over the next few months, 16 multigenerational family teams of passionate cooks battle it out for the chance to be crowned the nation's best family of home cooks. Judging their efforts every step of the way are top Michelin-starred chef Giorgio Locatelli and renowned cookery teacher Rosemary Shrager. In each episode, two families face a series of challenges based on the realities of everyday meals, cooking up their favourite dishes both in the studio and in their own homes. At the end of each show, the judges decide which family make it through to the semi-finals.

In this episode, the Karim family from west London go up against the Dawes family from Hampshire. Will the Karims, with their simple Indian recipes, curry favour with Rosemary and Giorgio, or will the Daweses and their ambitious flavour combinations earn them a place in the semi-finals?

Aunt Zakila is queen of the kitchen in the Karims' household, but will her spice mix leave the judges wanting more when they visit the family at home? Ellie Dawes and her scientist boyfriend Sam share a passion for food, but will their bold use of ingredients be a step too far for the judges?
