on Sunday, January 03, 2010 - 04:15 PM |
This January, W Network ushers in the new year with a schedule full of brand-new series including How to Look Good Naked Canada and the popular UK reality series, Come Dine With Me. Also, every Saturday night this month, W Double Flix is airing back-to-back Hugh Grant-themed movies including Love Actually and the premiere of About a Boy.
COME DINE WITH ME – SERIES PREMIERE
This January, the hit UK series Come Dine With Me is coming to W Network. In this half-hour, culinary-challenge series, five strangers take turns hosting what they hope will be a perfect evening of entertainment in their homes. In each episode a different competitor hosts a dinner party at their house, providing a snapshot into their life and passions, as they outline the thinking behind that evening’s menu and their choice of ingredients. As the night ends, their fellow contestants judge them on their menu, hospitality and presentation. At the end of the week, the person with the highest rating takes home the cash prize and title of the ultimate dinner party host. Viewers can step into the homes of amateur chefs as they clash over culinary choices, make unexpected friendships and rummage through each other’s closets when Come Dine With Me airs Mondays to Fridays at 8 p.m. starting Monday, January 4.
In addition to the weekly episodes, a one-hour episode of the series will air Saturday’s at 1 p.m., and Sunday’s at 8 p.m. beginning Saturday, January 9, featuring four amateur chefs as they host their dinner parties. At the end of the episode, one host will win bragging rights and the cash prize.

How to Look Good Naked Canada, along with host Zain Meghji and a team of fashion and lifestyle experts are on a mission to restore body confidence in women everywhere – no surgery required. Produced by Insight Productions in association with W Network, and based on the hugely successful British version hosted by Gok Wan, How To Look Good Naked Canada is set to help Canadian women of all shapes and sizes discover a whole new appreciation for the way they look. Each week, Zain will work with a different woman who can’t face herself in the mirror without seeing her flaws and will try to turn her from her own worst critic into her biggest fan, as she uses her new-found confidence to muster the courage to walk a runway in nothing but lingerie with hundreds watching. Combining his strong sense of style, love of fashion and compassion for others, Zain will help self-conscious women find their true beauty using styling, beauty tips and surprising stunts when How to Look Good Naked Canada premieres on Tuesday, January 5 at 10 p.m.
