Channel 4 fans confused over his sudden exit!"},"content":{"rendered":"

Come Dine with Me<\/a><\/span> never fails to charm with its quirky contestants and delicious recipes.<\/p>\n

The competitive Channel 4 series premiered back in 2005 and has continued to entertain viewers at home ever since.<\/p>\n

Those who take part are not necessarily skilled cooks as the show always welcomes a range of contestants. People just need to have the ambition and hustle to create a showstopper menu and impress their guests when they are the host.<\/p>\n

This week, however, one contestant suddenly disappeared from the series without any explanation.<\/p>\n

What happened to Russell? Why did he leave Come Dine with Me?<\/p>\n

Who is Russell?<\/h3>\n

Russell is a builder, aka the “harbour playboy”, as he referred to himself in Come Dine with Me’s first episode<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

He made quite the appearance on the Channel 4 series, sipping on a cocktail in a bar in a stylish and elegant outfit. In the series, he didn’t shy away from sharing his own taste about food and different flavours.<\/p>\n

He explained:\u00a0“I am very fussy with food. Food has to be flavoursome. I like flavours, I like cutlery, I like nice restaurants.<\/p>\n

Apart from his taste for food and fashion, Russell also became memorable for his puns and hilarious rapping. In the second episode, he (sort of) rapped:<\/p>\n

My name is Russell<\/p>\n

I have got big muscle<\/p>\n

I came to eat<\/p>\n

And they served me no meat<\/p>\n
