Episode 1
Competitive food show. Grandmother Toren's age-old family recipe for Swedish meatballs goes up against Betty's risotto.
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.
Tonight, the Marks family from west London go up against the Charles family from Yorkshire. Will the Marks family impress the judges with their Scandinavian-inspired dishes or will the Charles' food, influenced by far-flung holidays, wow them?
86-year-old grandmother and former model Toren has a lust for life and rules the roost in the Marks' kitchen, but will her age-old family recipe for Swedish meatballs hit the mark? Betty is the boss in the Charles family, but will her decision to serve up a risotto to a Michelin-starred Italian chef pay off?
