Tonight | Off the Grid with Colin and Manu on Channel 7: a Poor Knights catch and cook – Off the Grid with Colin and Manu on Channel 7 airs tonight, Tuesday 3 November 2026, at 9.15pm. The episode is also available on 7plus.
Colin Fassnidge and Manu Feildel head north for a catch and cook at the Poor Knights Islands. Their journey then continues to the Bay of Islands, where a swim is followed by an evening at Paroa Winery.
The episode moves between two distinctive coastal stops. First comes the hands-on search for ingredients and a meal made close to where they are found. Later, the pair swap that outdoor pace for a more luxurious evening.
A catch and cook at the Poor Knights Islands
Season two follows the chefs as they travel the length of Aotearoa with a small caravan. They meet local people, learn about regional food and cook wherever the road takes them.
That is a different setting for the two My Kitchen Rules judges. Instead of assessing another team’s menu, they are the ones sourcing ingredients and making the food. The series places local connections alongside the cooking.
The road leads to the Bay of Islands
The Poor Knights Islands stop is the episode’s catch-and-cook centrepiece. The Bay of Islands leg adds a swim and a winery visit, giving the night a change of pace without leaving the journey north.
The episode synopsis does not specify the catch or the dishes they prepare, so those details remain to be seen when the programme airs.
Off the Grid with Colin and Manu airs on Tuesday 3 November 2026 at 9.15pm on Channel 7. It is also available on 7plus.
