Come Dine With Me narrator Dave Lamb came under fire from Geordie viewers who tuned into a North East based episode of the show on Monday.
As reported by ChronicleLive last month, three well known local restaurants battled it out in a new instalment of Come Dine With Me: The Professionals. Competing against each other were Namaste from Sunniside, North Shields’ Pigalo’s and Prudhoe based chippy Balls. And it was Dave’s pronunciation of Prudhoe which causes a stir online as locals watched at home.
Dave exaggerated the ‘u’ as ‘ooo,’calling it 'Proo-doh,' in stark contrast to how residents say it. Reacting on Twitter, one viewer posted: "Guy on Come dine with me. Never heard such an odd way of saying Prudhoe. And believe me I've heard some belters.”
