Come Dine with Me - Season 30 Episode 1 Southend, Julie-Ann Rayner
Overview: Dog-mad executive PA Julie-Ann Rayner is a dinner party veteran and has high hopes that her 'Taste of the Sea' menu - with two fish courses - will have her guests hooked, assuming that they all like fish, that is. The strangers she has to impress with her surf-themed evening are 31-year-old science teacher and proud geek Damian Loneragan, 37-year-old international DJ Scott Langley, 20-year-old barmaid and self-confessed airhead Steph Barrett and 60-year-old glamorous granny Carol Dolman. And if her fishy feast doesn't go down a treat, Julie-Ann has some musical mayhem up her sleeve.
