As viewers know, Come Dine With Me features five amateur cooks hosting dinner parties among themselves across a week - hoping to win a £1,000 cash prize.

Speaking to Jane Garvey and Fi Glover on their podcast Off Air with Jane and Fi, Dave shared details about the programme's beginnings.

As it turns out, the show initially didn't have the comedic element that fans know today.

Dave said: “I think they did a pilot and it was quite a straight show at that point.

"Channel 4 took the decision to audition comedy writer-performers as a narrator, so that they could add a little something to it at that point, coming in from the voiceover.

“Once we actually got into the studio to record, we all stepped back from that a little bit.

"'This is a bit too much, we can’t shout like that at people while they’re trying to cook.'

"Over the years, it’s grown organically into the shout-fest that it currently is.”
