Laskill Country House

The competition kicks off in Helmsley North Yorkshire at Laskill Country House, where straight-talking farmer's daughter Mandy Sowray and friend Anny Harrison run a tight ship. On arrival Chris Witton and Saroop Ram aka 'Rammy' from The Swan Hotel, Peterborough, feel right at home but techno savvy Colin and Ben Warburg from Scalford Hall Hotel, Leicestershire, fail to connect from the start. During the afternoon's hay bale race, youngsters Charlie Thompson and Lauren Tucker from The Abbey Hotel in East Sussex fail to stack up to the challenge. At dinner, host Mandy bigs up her banger qualifications but it's at breakfast where she fails to crack Chris's order. Come feedback Colin signals a no return leaving the host 'hanging' as to the reason why.
