UPDATE: Watch Niki’s appearance online here

Niki O’Leary, along with her sister Jane run the ScouseVeg social group, mailing list and this website. A few months back Niki participated in a Channel 4 television show called “Come Dine With Me“. In the show 1 person each day prepares and cooks a menu at their own house for the other 4 contestants. (It is a competition, the winner recieves £1000 in cash). Then the next day another person does the same at their house and so on. Finally at the end of the week each contestant votes on who was the best.

Just got word from Brian on the air dates for Niki’s appearance on the series. It is a daily show with the Scouse Vegan herself hosting on August 2nd »

“The TV schedules for the week after next have been published, including
Channel 4’s “Come Dine With Me”. Wednesday evening’s programme may be of interest!…”
