00:00In the world of modern dating where romance has been reduced to a swipe of
00:06the screen there is one man who still believes in finding love the old
00:13fashioned way. I met my wife fruitcake in the street she had this incredible smile
00:19beautiful eyes and there was the energy and I couldn't control myself I was drawn
00:25to her but on the dating apps like it doesn't seem real it's like almost like a card game
00:34it's like you're just collecting people I've been ghosted catfished where do I start I've
00:40just been swiping and nothing there's just nothing. In the heart of Britain's most romantic
00:47city Fred and his team are matching hopeful singletons in a place where love is all
00:55always on the menu. Mine will always get stuck on my boob shelf. These daters are searching for the one
01:07Oh my god in the real world. I grazed my needles this morning. I'm calling for you. Oh my god.
01:16For some stepping into the unknown. How are you with the technology? Rubbish. I'm a dinosaur. Oh thank goodness
01:28If I want to get in contact with you I have to whatsapp me here. Don't get too ahead of yourself.
01:32Can lead to surprising sparks. I don't know what's going on. But finding a connection. What's the dynamic here?
01:43Epic is yours. Isn't always easy. Help me. In the end. Hey hey hey. It comes down to one. Hello. Hello.
01:54Big. This isn't awkward. Question. I'll open it. Do you guys want to see each other again?
02:02This is the First Dates Restaurant.
02:04Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. How are you feeling? We are back. Ready. Yeah.
02:25So we have two new member of staff. We have Gerald who comes from New York, right? New York City.
02:30And we've got Kyle. Hello. I'm from Wales. South Wales. And yeah I've just come to see people fall in love.
02:37What we do here is unique. And we have delivered now for how long Merlin?
02:4112 years. 12 years. 12 years!
02:44You didn't have any grey hair when we started. Nor did you. No.
02:48No. And I wasn't married. That's amazing.
02:55My wife. She's coming down for a drink later on.
02:58So. Okay let's go. Let's do this. Let's go.
03:06Cocktail a new one.
03:07Tired of waiting in the bath. 26 year old Connor just wants to be taken seriously.
03:18I would say that I'm a serial dater to be completely honest. But I probably think the
03:23biggest misconception is that I'm like a massive cheater and this and that. Because I've got the
03:28turkey teeth. I've got the tattoos. I'm quite tall. I'm almost like a walking red flag. But like I'm
03:34actually a nice guy. Oh. Oh. Oh. Hello. Oh. Oh. That's a very self assured confident walk.
03:43Yeah. I hope this is my last first date for a while. Come with me. Let's see what we can do.
03:48You're so smiling. That's so large. And it's taller than Fred. Well congratulations as well.
03:53Thank you really much. Yeah yeah. Hopefully it'll be me one day. Well for sure. Well you are here.
03:58I'm sort of at the stage now where I'm a bit too old for stuff that's just casual. I'm at
04:04last show on the saloon. Let me get your drink. Can I get a Long Island iced tea? Long Island coming up?
04:10That's the strongest one. So I feel that will ease my nerves. So what kind of girls do you like man?
04:15I usually go for someone that's a bit like a Barbie to me. So that kind of vibe.
04:19My other woman I'll say just someone that's quite fun loving and like easy to get on with. But do
04:25like a blonde not gonna lie. Hey Barbie. I like your style.
04:31I've heard you've described yourself as sexy and goofy.
04:37Yeah I think when I said that I'd probably had something to drink.
04:41But I probably had a glass of wine.
04:43A glass of wine. Tech consultant Charlie is putting the numbers aside
04:50to discover the true formula for love. I love like analytical stuff.
04:57So yes I am quite geeky.
04:58You are like a ray of sunshine. Do you want mini dates?
05:05No. No not really. I don't like to.
05:08You don't? I'm fed up with the dating scene. I don't want to be on dating apps. I would rather
05:13just talk to one person and get to know them. I'm not a serial dater.
05:17Do you know what you're looking for?
05:19Someone that's kind, confident but not a show off.
05:23Teeth is quite a big one for me because I do stare at people's mouths quite a lot.
05:27Not in like a horrible way but it's just nice that someone has like a nice warm smile.
05:34Hi. Nice to meet you. I'm Charlie.
05:37I'm Connor. Nice to meet you Connor.
05:38So what was the community like from heaven?
05:42That was very good. Can I get a margarita please?
05:45Yes. Thank you so much.
05:46So where does that actually come from?
05:48Uh, London. Okay.
05:49Where do you come from? I live in Guildford, sorry.
05:51Oh, I know Guildford, yeah. So we're fairly close.
05:54Yes, we are. What do you actually do for work then?
05:56I work for a tech consultancy. Oh, okay, okay.
06:00Thank you so much. It's been a pleasure.
06:02You have lots of tattoos as well. Yes, I've got my leg.
06:05I've got one on my chest. Oh my gosh.
06:07And I've got one on my back as well. Nice.
06:09We'll save that for the second date. Yeah, fine.
06:12Um, what do you do for work? You've got really nice eyes as well, by the way.
06:15My eyes? Yeah, you've got really nice eyes.
06:17Thanks. Yours are nice as well.
06:19Uh, I'm a carpenter. Are you? Nice.
06:23Yeah, I like someone that's got hands on.
06:25Yeah. Yeah.
06:29You couldn't have picked anyone better.
06:31Yes, she's off to a good start, isn't it?
06:33Come with me. Thank you. Let's go.
06:3629-year-old business owner Sophie is hoping to add romance to her agenda.
06:42I definitely did not used to look like this.
06:46Yeah, with bright coloured hair.
06:49I used to work in the law so tattoos weren't really kind of encouraged.
06:52I changed my career and started getting covered in tattoos.
07:01Nice to meet you, Sophie.
07:02I do. It's nice to meet you, Fred.
07:03What an incredible look you have here with all your tattoos.
07:08My children are my entire world, but I think I've got more love to give,
07:12and it would be nice to be able to find another person to be able to share that with.
07:17Can I get you a drink?
07:18Yes, please. Can I have a porn star?
07:20Yes, you can. Thank you.
07:22How are you feeling about things?
07:24Yeah, I'm good. Good.
07:25I'm nervous.
07:27Natural. Totally natural, yeah.
07:28Talk to me about the sort of person you want to meet today.
07:31So, I'm actually looking for somebody that is an alternative woman.
07:36I'm a bisexual woman, so I'm looking for a romantic relationship with a woman.
07:43I have female friends, but, you know, I think I'm looking for something that's a bit of a stronger
07:48connection than that. I quite like tattoos. I like coloured hair. I like it's people that embrace
07:53some individuality. Something a bit different outside the norm. My ideal woman is like Megan Fox.
08:04Sophie's date is Emily, a massage therapist who's a pro at releasing stress.
08:11Growing up, I was always like the weird kid, and to be honest, my mum's quite like punk,
08:17so she raised me on like the sex pistols. I was always taught to express myself and
08:25just be whoever I wanted to be.
08:31You're dressed to kill.
08:33I am. I'm given fox, leopard.
08:36Yeah, I was thinking Betty Boo, you know?
08:38Oh, yeah, I love that.
08:39Yeah, yeah, I love that.
08:42I identify as bisexual, which to me means I'm attracted to all women and a very specific
08:49type of man.
08:53Your date is at the bar.
08:54Amazing.
08:55Look behind me, have a look. Can you see behind the bar there?
08:58I like alternative women, obviously, tattoos, just because we'd look cute together, to be honest.
09:04I love that for us.
09:05Enjoy. Thank you.
09:06Have fun.
09:08Hello.
09:08Hi.
09:09Wow, I love you to see you.
09:11I'm Breeze and I'm so sorry.
09:12Nice to meet you.
09:15I'm Emily.
09:16Nice to meet you, Emily.
09:17You look stunning.
09:18So do you.
09:20I wasn't sure if this was a bit OTT, but you know.
09:23No, I love it.
09:24I've honestly been so nervous.
09:26Have you?
09:27Now.
09:27I'm kind of chilled.
09:28You're feeling chilled?
09:29Yeah.
09:29That's good.
09:30That's good.
09:30No need to be nervous.
09:31No.
09:32No.
09:33No.
09:38Is it just me, or do you think that since he's been married, he is happier and a better mood?
09:45He just seems really happy.
09:46He certainly seems more settled, more grounded.
09:48Yeah, maybe that's what it is.
09:55Do you have any funny, like, stories?
09:58Like, have you embarrassed yourself recently?
10:00Last year, I was seeing a girl and she's put me on, like, a Facebook group saying, like,
10:04don't date this guy.
10:08Yeah.
10:08Oh, gosh.
10:09Why is that?
10:10I think she was just bitter, to be completely honest.
10:12I was, like, pretty sure out of her.
10:14I think she was a bit older than me.
10:15She was, like, eight years older than me.
10:17Then went on another date, maybe three weeks later.
10:21Like, the day after, she screenshotted this and sent it to me.
10:23So, like, can I do better?
10:25I was like, you don't even know me.
10:27Wait, what?
10:28Yeah.
10:28Oh, my gosh.
10:29Yeah.
10:31So, my dating life, it was a little bit cowluck, I'm not going to lie.
10:36I would say that I probably have commitment issues just because, like, when my first girlfriend,
10:42she didn't cheat on me, but it was a bit like, you know, the Ross and Rachel situation.
10:44Like, we were on a break.
10:45It was the same sort of thing.
10:47And, like, it's not really a nice thing to have happen to you.
10:51So, I just feel as if since then, I'm, like, I'm scared of getting hurt, to be honest.
11:00I've taken a bit of a step back.
11:01Like, I've deleted dating apps.
11:03I just feel as if now I've got the clear headspace to give someone my all.
11:09To be honest, when I saw you coming, I was like, Jesus Christ.
11:12I was like, I was like, shaking.
11:20How does Wade feel?
11:21Better nerves, right?
11:24But, yeah, it's, um, it's different.
11:28It is definitely different.
11:30Isn't his date coming?
11:31Well, I hope so.
11:36What's your date in, like, history?
11:38So, I'm actually really not practised in dating at all.
11:44OK.
11:46This is my first date with a woman.
11:49Really?
11:50Yeah, so...
11:51Well, you're doing great.
11:53I would not think this was your first date with a woman ever.
11:56Like, I'm not getting that vibe at all, so...
11:58I've always kind of thought I was bisexual, but never explored it.
12:03And too afraid to kind of come out about it.
12:06Yeah, of course.
12:06But it's nerve-wracking.
12:08And I'm glad they chose you.
12:10Yeah, I'm glad they chose me.
12:12And it's like, yeah, it's such an honour to, like, be your first date.
12:18But you're stunning.
12:19So are you.
12:21Yeah, you are very my type, for sure.
12:23You very much are.
12:26So, erm...
12:29I'm married.
12:31Really?
12:34Yeah.
12:39So, erm...
12:41I have a question for you.
12:44OK?
12:44My husband is at the bar.
12:53Would you like to meet him?
13:08So, this is a first.
13:09Yeah.
13:10It is.
13:12So, yeah.
13:14We found each other on Tinder.
13:16What was the first thing he said to me?
13:18Yeah.
13:18Do you know the muffin man?
13:20And my response was, who lives on Tory Lane?
13:23So, we bonded over Shrek, didn't we?
13:24Mm-hm.
13:25Typical parents.
13:27That's exactly what it was.
13:30Ricky.
13:31Are you ready?
13:32Yeah.
13:33Ready as I'll ever be.
13:34Come on, man.
13:35Take your drink.
13:35Let's go.
13:38They call it a thruple, don't they?
13:40We are looking for love.
13:41Yeah.
13:42We're looking for something that's long-term.
13:43We've got a lot of love to give, so...
13:45We definitely have.
13:47It'd be nice to sort of share it around.
13:49Hello.
13:50Hello.
13:51How are you, OK?
13:52Hi, I'm good.
13:53Going good?
13:54Going good, yeah.
13:55This is Ricky.
13:56Hi, Ricky.
13:57Let me give you a hug.
13:58I'm Emily.
13:59Nice to meet you.
14:00Nice to meet you.
14:01Should I get another chair?
14:02Yes, please.
14:03You can have mine.
14:05It'd be nice to share the moments with another person.
14:08To find somebody that likes to cuddle up on the couch and just to kind of fit in.
14:12It's like a missing piece to a jigsaw.
14:16How are you?
14:17I'm good.
14:18How are you?
14:18Good.
14:18How are you feeling?
14:20A bit more nervous.
14:21Well, actually, no, not as nervous as I was.
14:24Yeah.
14:25It's really good.
14:26I think I was very nervous.
14:29I think I might get another drink in a minute.
14:31Yeah, nice.
14:33I don't think it would work if the other person didn't fancy both of us.
14:38Mm-hm.
14:38Because obviously that would be upsetting for one of us, wouldn't it?
14:42A lot of it's communication.
14:44Yeah.
14:44It has to be there.
14:45It's really important.
14:46It has to be paramount.
14:47Mm-hm.
14:47Otherwise, there's just no point.
14:49Mm-hm.
14:50There's no point.
14:51Good girl, we've been having a nice time.
14:53Yeah.
14:53We're, like, settled into the date now and you're just, like, fresh.
14:57Hi, girl.
14:58Hey.
14:59We're like, yeah, yeah.
15:00We both sort of tend to sort of like the same women.
15:05Yeah.
15:06I think you'd be able to tell if we liked them.
15:08Mm-hm.
15:08Definitely look at each other and smile, wouldn't we?
15:10Mm-hm.
15:15You both get on like a house on fire, it seems.
15:18Yeah.
15:18It's amazing.
15:19You were very nervous to tell me about your situation.
15:23Yeah, so I said, so, I have a husband.
15:25And I was just, like, slay.
15:28Do you know what I mean?
15:29Like, so easy, like, proper, like, couple goals, energy.
15:33You two.
15:35I have to say, since I got married, I'm on cloud nine.
15:39Oh, I love hearing that.
15:40You know, it was such a, such an amazing day.
15:43We were in Jamaica and it's the most idyllic location in the world.
15:48It's so beautiful.
15:48Oh, my God, look at these.
15:51These are so amazing.
15:56Ghost cheese salad.
15:56Yes, thank you.
15:57Good morning.
15:59Nourish bowl for gentlemen.
16:01Mayonnaise.
16:01Thank you so much.
16:02You're very welcome.
16:03Enjoy.
16:05Goodbye.
16:06You are a bit of a pretty boy.
16:12Last year, I did a bit of Naked Butler.
16:18What are you looking for?
16:19Are you looking for, like, a long-term relationship or are you...
16:21100%.
16:22I hate being single.
16:23I just don't enjoy it.
16:24So, what about you?
16:25I had a seven-year relationship.
16:26Seven-year-old.
16:27Mm.
16:28So, how long ago was that?
16:29Two and a half years ago.
16:30I feel like I'd outgrown the relationship and the town I was living in with him and I just
16:39needed to try something new, so I'd moved to London two years ago.
16:44Kind of wanted to put myself in an uncomfortable position so I could grow as a person, which I
16:50feel like I have massively.
16:51Like, I wouldn't be doing this if I hadn't grown as a person.
16:54So, you're sort of, like, ready for something.
16:58Yeah, I guess I hit, like, 28 and I was like, it would be nice to, you know, meet someone now.
17:02Yeah.
17:03I have had enough alone time, but it would be nice to have a relationship that is the one that I stay in forever.
17:11This is lovely.
17:16Nice one.
17:17I mean, the drink is really good, but you're good.
17:20You are as well.
17:22Oh, thanks.
17:22You're, like, the fittest girl I've ever gone back with.
17:26Shut up.
17:26No, you actually are.
17:27No, I'm not.
17:28You 100% are.
17:29Thank you, that's very sweet.
17:31And you're also very good-looking.
17:37Are you excited for your first table of the day?
17:40Yeah, I'm confident I'm ready, yeah.
17:43And so it seems that we have talked before and laughed before, but who knows where or when.
18:00I think it might be appropriate, that song, because meeting somebody for the first time.
18:06Meet Derek.
18:0889 years young and ready to serenade his way into one lucky lady's heart.
18:14I like to sing when I go on cruises.
18:17Oh, and I won the singing contest at the end of the cruise.
18:25I don't feel my age, that's at 89.
18:28I feel 65.
18:29Or less.
18:37Nice to meet you.
18:39You're so young at heart.
18:40You're 29 or 90.
18:41You're 90?
18:42In May.
18:43Wow.
18:45You look incredible.
18:46Shall I take your jacket?
18:49Oh, please do.
18:52You dress very well.
18:53Do you travel a lot?
18:54I did a cruise in November.
18:56I go by myself now.
18:58Did you not make any approaches to any of the ladies there?
19:01Oh, yes.
19:01Yeah, yeah.
19:02So, did it work?
19:03I had a nice lady from Honolulu and she's only 70 years of age.
19:07You are the king with the ladies.
19:09Yeah, I don't know about that.
19:10Come with me, I'll take you to your table.
19:11You're the first to arrive.
19:12I'm old school, open doors, lift the chair away, take a ladies coat.
19:20There's guys, he knows how to play the ladies.
19:22Yeah, so I'm romantic.
19:25And I love to sing romantic songs.
19:28So what are you looking for?
19:29Somebody that's bubbly.
19:30Yeah.
19:31Outgoing.
19:32Yeah.
19:32I'd like to sing.
19:33You like to sing?
19:34I sing.
19:34Cool, yeah.
19:36What I'm looking for, I think she's got to be friendly,
19:39as nicely dressed as I hope I would be for her,
19:43and can laugh, because I've got some silly jokes.
19:47And if she's interested in music, that's half the battle.
19:51What song could your dream date sing to really win your heart?
19:56Lady.
19:58Lady.
20:00That's a nice song, isn't it?
20:02Could music be the food of love for 77-year-old June?
20:09I can even tolerate Dolly Parton.
20:17Looking so elegant.
20:18Oh, thank you very much.
20:19Perfect.
20:20Shall I take your coat, maybe?
20:22Yes, that would be lovely.
20:23I prefer an older man.
20:25If somebody's got a nice build and they've looked after themselves
20:29and they've got groomed hair.
20:31But at the end of the day, isn't it the person themselves?
20:35Hello.
20:37I'm June.
20:38Okay, June.
20:39I'm Derek.
20:39Derek.
20:40Hello, Derek.
20:41Hello, June.
20:42Hello.
20:43This is a rather super restaurant, isn't it?
20:45Lovely.
20:46Yeah.
20:47I've only been to Bath a couple of times.
20:49It was only just...
20:50It's the most romantic city in Britain.
20:52Isn't it wonderful?
20:54When you meet in Bath, that's it.
20:57You look very nice, let me tell you.
20:58Beautiful top.
20:59You look rather lovely yourself.
21:02Okay.
21:08Cheers.
21:09Nice to meet you.
21:10It was bad luck otherwise.
21:11I don't know what I thought.
21:12Mm-mm.
21:14Wow, that is strong.
21:15It's like the connection.
21:21I'm really scared about my hair setting on fire.
21:23Although we already are on fire because our date is so there.
21:26Yeah.
21:26Don't try to kiss me.
21:28Okay.
21:31We only met like two hours ago.
21:33Yeah, fair enough.
21:36I actually like fancied the pants off her.
21:38When she'd come in, I was like, I'm done.
21:40Absolute rocket, to be honest.
21:43I am a little bit nervous to what the outcome's gonna be.
21:46I've never met someone that I just sort of click with quite like,
21:50just quite easy to get on with.
21:54Hi.
21:55Are you all right?
21:58So, do you want to see each other again?
22:03Like, I definitely would like to see you again.
22:06Would you?
22:08Yeah.
22:08Really?
22:09Yeah.
22:10Okay.
22:10I know obviously I hid it quite well, but...
22:12Yeah, you really hid it really well, yeah.
22:15The attempt kisses was, you know...
22:19Yeah, I'd like to see you again.
22:20Yeah?
22:21Yeah, we can see each other again if.
22:23Nice one.
22:23If we can plan something even better than that.
22:26Yeah, yeah.
22:26I have the bill.
22:28Are you splitting it, or...?
22:29I'll get it, I'll get it.
22:30You bring out like a side to me that I, like, could just have fun in, like...
22:36Good.
22:38This is nice.
22:39I know.
22:40I don't feel as if I've got to try and be anything different around you.
22:45I just feel as if I could be myself.
22:47I mean, you can give me a kiss and cheek.
22:51I've never watched in this cheek.
22:57You know who to hold me hand?
22:59Oh my God, are we holding hands?
23:01It's so sweet.
23:02I was watching television and they said they aggotised.
23:11Oh, I don't know if you've ever seen this naked attraction.
23:15Oh, yeah.
23:16I watched it and I was gobsmacked.
23:18I mean, I was like...
23:18Yeah.
23:20And I was tempted to say to my children,
23:24I'm going on a television programme,
23:26and I was waiting for them to say what programme,
23:28and I was going to say naked attraction.
23:30Oh, brilliant.
23:33Well, I am just going to pop to the toilet,
23:35so I'll be back in a moment, OK?
23:36Of course.
23:40So...
23:43I have a date in who is in a polyamorous relationship.
23:48Right, OK.
23:49What's that mean? Sorry.
23:50It means that they are happy to date more than one person.
23:55That is nuts.
23:56You know what?
23:57I take my hats off to them, fair play.
23:58What's your experience with dating so far, like, together?
24:05We've tried dating apps.
24:07Mm-hm.
24:08They all seem to be wanting one thing.
24:10Mm-hm.
24:11That's not really what we're after.
24:12Yeah, so you're looking for more, like, an emotional connection.
24:16I'd definitely say emotional connection rather than physical.
24:19Yeah.
24:19I prefer being able to sort of cuddle on the sofa, watch a film.
24:25I think a lot of the time, like, even for me,
24:27it's very much just like, hey, like, dip in.
24:30Thanks for that.
24:31See you later.
24:32And now that couple is going to go and spoon on the couch
24:35and watch true crime.
24:36And it's like, I want to spoon and watch true crime.
24:39Do you know what I mean?
24:39It's like, you do sort of miss that emotional bit, I guess.
24:44When I was in my late 20s, I discovered this thing,
24:49polyamory, non-monogamy, and I was like, oh, this is actually a thing?
24:54Like, so I started exploring it from there, really.
24:56And now, yeah, I think that's just how I identify,
25:00and I probably wouldn't look back.
25:01You seem like a really strong couple.
25:07I'd like to think so.
25:08You have to be a strong couple if you are going to sort of dip your toes in.
25:14I would like to be swept off my feet, to be honest.
25:18I think that's another misconception about non-monogamy as well,
25:21is that we're not really into the big dream of, like, being swept off our feet and stuff.
25:26We definitely are. Like, I'm such a romantic. I love all that.
25:30Part of it for me is, like, witnessing that love and that connection between the primary couple.
25:36People will be like, are you not threatened that that couple will never love you the same way
25:42that they love each other? And it's like, no, like, it's connection is connection.
25:47I think it's a process.
25:48Yeah, it's so true.
25:50I really need a weeb. I will venture to the loo.
26:03How are you getting on?
26:04Good, I think.
26:05Are you OK?
26:06Yeah, she's just nipped to the loo.
26:07What do you think?
26:10Yeah.
26:10Do you think she's, like, into you?
26:14Erm...
26:20What's this one here?
26:26This is, erm, this is the infinity sign. Erm, I was...
26:30I was on holidays and I was really drunk and I thought that was a good idea,
26:33so that's not a grade.
26:35You've got some really random tattoos. They're wicked.
26:37These are all women from films that I'm obsessed with.
26:41So you've got Regina George. You know Regina George, right?
26:43Oh, yes, I do. I love that.
26:44And then this is, like, Penny Lane from Almost Famous.
26:48Just strong, independent women, babes.
26:50Do you know what I mean?
26:51I love that.
26:51Like...
26:53I'm well-strong then.
26:54I'm well-strong then.
26:59What is this little badge I can see?
27:02I bought this jacket in my lane with my wife.
27:04And, erm, it's got a little bit of character to it.
27:06It's double-breasted, you know.
27:08Erm, so, erm, I used to go on cruises with my wife.
27:12Yeah.
27:12And, erm, of course, she passed away, so I didn't go cruising.
27:16How long ago did you lose your wife?
27:18Er, er, three years ago this month.
27:22Yeah.
27:24I sent my wife vanitise cards.
27:27Every year we were married for 65 years.
27:31So I miss her terribly.
27:33Still think of her every day.
27:34Still say goodnight to her, say good morning to her.
27:37Her teacher's there.
27:40All in all, she may be a better person.
27:41But as my friends and family say, you've got to move on, Derek.
27:58You've got to live your life.
27:59You know, after losing my wife, and my kids said, Dad, you know, at an age now, where you've got to,
28:07you've looked after my mum, the last five years, you've got to start to live your own life.
28:11I know my wife would love me to be with somebody.
28:14And, and my daughter says to me, there's a nice lady out there, Dad, looking for you,
28:19as well as you're looking for her.
28:21And I think that was wonderful.
28:22A little prezzi fruit.
28:25Oh, really?
28:28I couldn't find any chocolate.
28:29No, thank you very much.
28:31It's lucky that they got this far.
28:32I might have eaten them if I hadn't have had a full English this morning.
28:35Yes.
28:41My train is at 6.14.
28:44What's the time now?
28:45I'm caught on six.
28:47I ain't making that.
28:48No, you're not.
28:48And it's the last one.
28:50Yeah, because I went back for another night, guys, so I might as well get comfy.
28:56Is she, like, your type?
28:58She's definitely...
28:59You did well, she is definitely our type.
29:01Yeah, she's definitely my type.
29:01Our type, yeah, yeah.
29:05So, what happens if she comes in now and says that she wants to see you and not me?
29:13Yeah, erm...
29:14Right, you ready?
29:15That's good.
29:16Let's give it a go.
29:17It's not coming out.
29:20What's that, man?
29:27How are you feeling?
29:27I'm good.
29:28Good.
29:29You guys okay?
29:29Yeah, good.
29:30Yeah.
29:33So, would you like to see each other again?
29:37Absolutely.
29:39Love to see you again.
29:40I think you're lovely.
29:40And I think, kind of, we had a really good connection, I thought.
29:44So, I'd love to.
29:45Yeah, I agree.
29:46I would love to see you guys again.
29:48I'm very good.
29:49The relief.
29:50No, yeah, I agree.
29:52Like, I think we had, like, such a good vibe, like, us.
29:55And then, obviously, when you joined us, it's obviously that, oh, God, is this going to derail the whole day?
30:00Yeah, yeah.
30:01But it didn't at all.
30:02Like, we all had a great vibe together.
30:05I'm glad you joined us.
30:06Yeah.
30:07That was a nice little plot twist.
30:09Yeah, just a bit.
30:11So, our Fridays are probably going to look a little bit different from now on.
30:15Yeah.
30:15What do you reckon?
30:16Yeah, we've just got a new couch, haven't we?
30:18It's big enough.
30:18Is it big enough?
30:19Yeah.
30:19Yeah.
30:29I'm so lucky.
30:31That's a new one.
30:34Let's go and have a drink.
30:35Come on, let's do it.
30:36Let's do it.
30:37I owe you guys a few drinks.
30:38So, let's do that.
30:40What should we do?
30:40Shots.
30:41Shots.
30:41Shots.
30:46Oh, hello.
30:46I have a little, er, wedding gift.
30:49Oh, look at that.
30:50For Federica and fruitcake.
30:51That's wonderful.
30:52I don't want them to see it yet.
30:53Look at that.
30:53I get first signature.
30:54You get first signature, because you're the main man.
30:57All right, oh.
31:03Married, first.
31:08Are you a hot dad?
31:09My daughter sees a few of her friends think I'm a dill.
31:12Probably more guilt these days, I'm kicking on.
31:15Wanting to prove there's more to him than meets the eye,
31:17a single dad of three, Mike.
31:19Everyone thinks I'm a real lad, like, people just see tattoos
31:23and probably just think you're a bit of a rogue and a bit of a player and stuff.
31:27I'm a massive softie, like, I'll find a joke in anything.
31:33Life's for living and laughing, and that's what I'm here to do.
31:37How are you?
31:38My man crush, that is, right there.
31:40Nice to meet you, Mike.
31:41Are you all right?
31:42I am.
31:42So, what's your type?
31:43What are you looking for?
31:44I ain't really got a type.
31:45You can't even explain what it is.
31:46It's like, I never liked small people.
31:48That was my biggest turn off, with small people.
31:50And I married a woman who was five foot tall, do you know what I mean?
31:52So.
31:53Well, in bed, we're all the same size.
31:55I wouldn't know.
31:56That's been that long, Fred.
31:57I forgot, but apparently so.
31:59I just hope I'm not too much sometimes.
32:01You can take us home if you want, Fred.
32:03I've both said you want my man crush.
32:05Come on, let's go.
32:06If I'm in a situation where people don't know, it's going to be quite awkward,
32:09because I won't shut up.
32:10A beer, like Guinness.
32:11I'll try a cocktail, Fred.
32:13Are you paying, Fred?
32:14I'll say stupid things, because I don't have to cope in a particular situation,
32:19and then that can make us come across as a little bit of a twat.
32:22If I can get on and have a laugh, what more, do you know what I mean?
32:25I do.
32:25I never go out these days, so as long as I, like, have a laugh in that, do you know what I mean?
32:29But if I can meet somebody who can make us smile, take us some of that loneliness away.
32:34That's the nice thing about it, because you don't know who it is, do you know what I mean?
32:37It's like exciting in it, do you know what I mean?
32:38I love a fit, best mate.
32:40That's what I'd love, do you know what I mean?
32:42But whether that can happen or not, I don't know.
32:45Hopefully it's worth it.
32:46Only it was worth the wait.
32:50Oh, is my hair okay?
32:52Hi!
32:54Hoping to cut out dating bad boys is hairdresser Carly.
33:00Start seeing a guy last year.
33:01It was going great.
33:02And then I found out he was actually going to prison.
33:06I know I need to stay away from them.
33:08So I'm looking for someone that's family orientated.
33:11I'm just somebody settled in life.
33:14I laugh a lot.
33:16So somebody's got to make me laugh.
33:19And that's a big, big thing for me.
33:23How are you?
33:24I'm fine, thank you.
33:25You're looking amazing.
33:27What kind of man are you looking for?
33:29Tall, dark, handsome would be nice.
33:31Any other particularity that you like?
33:33A bit of facial hair is nice.
33:35Yes.
33:35Tattoos, because I've got quite a few tattoos with Al.
33:38So are you ready to meet him?
33:39I'm ready.
33:40Come with me.
33:40I'm ready.
33:42Hi, how are you Fred?
33:44Hi, how are you?
33:46Yeah, I'm very well, you?
33:47Yeah, you look lovely.
33:49Oh, you're cold, isn't you?
33:51It's freezing.
33:55Here you go.
33:55Thank you very much, Fred.
33:56You've done very well there.
33:57First time I've been punching in a long time, this is Fred.
34:01Oh, my goodness.
34:04What's your poison?
34:06Cocktail-wise, I love a porn star martini.
34:09How much is it?
34:10I'm just checking the price before I order it.
34:12Fuck that.
34:13I'm a single dad.
34:14I call a porn porn star.
34:15Get a heart beside her.
34:18You'll get used to me.
34:18I'll just slap my damn care with you.
34:20Give it up.
34:20I like someone that can make laugh.
34:23Well, you're in for a treat tonight, then.
34:25Not much to look at, but I'm funny as fuck.
34:30How are you with your technology?
34:32Rubbish.
34:33I'm a dinosaur.
34:33Oh, thank goodness.
34:35And this is what I'm finding.
34:37How do you meet somebody?
34:39Very difficult.
34:41And my children thought, if I go on to one of these websites,
34:46well, that was an awful nightmare.
34:48I mean, I feel like a dinosaur to people, honestly.
34:51Totally, I am.
34:54When I go around and I'm going to the ballet or I'm going somewhere, I seem to be the only one on my own.
35:01Everybody's there with their partners, their family, whatever.
35:06And I prefer to be with somebody.
35:11That's what I'm missing, somebody to do these things with.
35:15I would enjoy a nice cuddle and just holding hands with somebody and somebody to be there genuinely for me.
35:29Yeah.
35:31I mean, I've been known to take videos of my own feet, for goodness sake.
35:35Have I?
35:37I'm glad.
35:38Yeah.
35:39Many times.
35:40Filming out the back.
35:40How on earth did I do that?
35:43Both is better than each other.
35:44Cheers, it's nice to meet somebody.
35:46Good health.
35:46Oh, I'm so happy about that.
35:50Let's go, let's do it, let's do it, let's do it.
35:51Right, whatever you want.
35:58Beautiful.
35:59We do look very sun-kissed.
36:04First compliment I've had, you look sun-kissed, don't you?
36:08Yeah, you're not one for the compliments, I've noticed.
36:10Fucking hell, fishing and fishing, you know, good compliment.
36:14Being the saddest of times, I've managed to get through them all through the power of laughter
36:18and it's been massive, like, and especially through recent situations in my life.
36:22So, you've got kids then?
36:23Oh, yeah, I've got three kids, all at the same time.
36:26Really?
36:27Yeah.
36:27Oh, my goodness.
36:28It's like, mate, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I tell you or whatever,
36:31but my wife's dead, like.
36:33Oh, OK, oh, sorry to hear that.
36:36Yeah, but I've been with her nearly 22 years.
36:37Yeah, oh, my gosh.
36:38It was, yeah, yeah, yeah.
36:40Jodie had cancer of the oesophagus.
36:44I gave her a prognosis of three to six months to live, like.
36:49She was the purest and nicest person.
36:52The best, you know, the best man in the world, like.
36:56Like, she didn't deserve it, man.
36:59Really didn't deserve it.
37:00Yeah.
37:02As soon as my wife died, like, I was so lonely.
37:05I just didn't know what to do with myself.
37:06Like, I'd just be sitting in the dark every night.
37:08The kids would come down and say, Dad, what are you doing?
37:09I'd say, oh, just chilling.
37:11Yeah.
37:12And life had to go on, and I couldn't crumble.
37:15Like, my children needed this more than ever.
37:17She passed in then.
37:19Yeah.
37:20So now I'm a single dad with three kids, like.
37:22I bet that's really hard.
37:23Being a parent anyway is hard, but doing it on your own.
37:26It's hard.
37:27I've raised them 24-7, like.
37:30I'm not after a new mum for my children.
37:32I'm never, ever going to meet another Julie, never.
37:34If I get 1% of what I had with her again,
37:36in the future, I'll be a happy man.
37:41You've got very nice arties.
37:42Oh, thank you.
37:43Yeah, I've got very nice arties.
37:45Very blue.
37:45I'm glad you noticed, like, you know what I mean?
37:47See, there's a compliment.
37:48It is a very nice compliment.
37:49You've got very nice tattoos.
37:54And very nice teeth.
37:56Everything I've listed aren't yours, though.
37:58It's a little while.
38:00Talk about it.
38:01I am a bellend, you know what I mean?
38:03Proper bellend.
38:04No, but I like that.
38:05But if I'm laughing and flirting, it means I like it, you know what I mean?
38:08No, I'm winning then at the moment.
38:09Oh, 100%, yeah.
38:10100%.
38:11That's all I like.
38:17I've not been going to the gym recently because of injury,
38:20but, yeah, I do the roll machine.
38:23Yeah, and how much can you press?
38:24Ski.
38:26240 pounds, your own weight.
38:29I do what they call the sumo squats,
38:31because it's supposed to be good for you.
38:32Where you have your legs wide and your feet open.
38:35Oh.
38:36And you come down.
38:36Oh.
38:37The sumo squats.
38:38Oh, why?
38:38You don't have to be fat and 23 stones to do that.
38:41Is it?
38:43It's supposed to give you a magnificent bottom.
38:45I've always wanted a bottom.
38:46Can you get up and walk over there, don't you?
38:48You're not going to throw your bottom to me.
38:52So, thank you.
39:01I really didn't know what to wear today.
39:03I thought, shall I wear bright?
39:04Shall I wear something with a low cleavage?
39:08Oh, you're too cool.
39:10Yeah, you should have done.
39:11No, I'm kidding.
39:13Thank you, my dear.
39:17Merci beaucoup.
39:18D'a rien, mademoiselle.
39:24How old are you?
39:2543.
39:2643.
39:26You went and go, what?
39:2743?
39:29You're winding me up.
39:30Because I'm like 36 this year, so I'm going to be closer.
39:3218.
39:34See, I was better, I'm more enthusiastic.
39:36How long were you with your ex for, like?
39:4012 years.
39:41What happened?
39:42He was seeing someone behind my back and it's one of them and it happens.
39:45Yeah, it does, but...
39:47Because 12 years is a long time.
39:49It fucking is, yeah, yeah.
39:52I didn't realise what a heartbreak was until we broke up.
39:56When somebody has broken your trust, it is really hard to put your trust into somebody else again.
40:02But I'm really happy with how my life is right now.
40:05I'm just missing that certain someone to share it with.
40:11Are you a good cook?
40:11No.
40:12No.
40:13At least you're honest.
40:14I never had to do it.
40:15Like, my wife was old school.
40:17Like, I'm not saying you should do that and I'm not saying that's the right way you know what I mean,
40:20but my wife was, like, literally like a 1920s housewife.
40:23She used to do them all like that.
40:24I think that's the way it should be.
40:25Just because...
40:26Are you old school?
40:27Yeah, 100%.
40:28Like, when me and my ex were together, every night he would be, like, waiting.
40:32Do you know what I mean?
40:32But that's the way...
40:33Would you cut the loans?
40:34Oh, I love cutting the loans.
40:36Fred, we're for a marriage.
40:38Come on.
40:39Would you take the bins out and I'm in the morning?
40:41Oh, yeah.
40:41I've always done it.
40:42Two seconds, I'm just going to ring the kids.
40:45She cuts the loans and takes the bins out.
40:47Yeah, someone I'll bring her home.
40:49Oh, my goodness.
40:50Oh, my goodness.
40:52You do make me laugh.
40:58You go away.
40:58I can't go away.
41:00You're two headsmen too tall.
41:02I wanted to speak to you, Mr. and Mrs. Flirt.
41:05I was wondering, do you fancy a little dance?
41:09I don't dance at school.
41:11She doesn't dance.
41:12I am.
41:13But she sings.
41:13You make me feel so young.
41:21You make me feel that spring has spun.
41:25And every time I see you, you're such a happy individual.
41:34I want to go and bounce the moon, just like a toy balloon.
41:40You and I are just like a couple of tots, running across the meadow, picking up lots of forget-me-nots.
41:58You make me feel so young.
42:02It's certainly Gerald, and I think she's a winner as far as I'm concerned.
42:06I certainly fancied the lady, yeah.
42:11Cos you make me feel so young.
42:17Is that good enough?
42:18Wow.
42:22Oh, that's super cute.
42:24Wow, wow, wow.
42:25How are you?
42:30How are you?
42:31How are you?
42:31Thanks for making me feel so young.
42:37Would you like to see each other again?
42:39On the count of three.
42:41One.
42:41I can't count.
42:44One.
42:45Two.
42:45Three.
42:46Yes.
42:46Yes.
42:47Everything about this lady is amazing.
42:54I'm very lucky to have met you.
42:56You make me feel so young.
42:57Cheers.
43:01But we laughed as we're laughing now and talked, didn't it?
43:04No.
43:04Brilliant, yeah.
43:07Right, let's go and have a nice coffee.
43:09A nice, pretty.
43:10Yeah, just lovely.
43:11And how about you teaching me to do a little boogie?
43:18Why not?
43:24Well, that drink's lovely, man.
43:27Oh, that is good.
43:28Really?
43:28I prefer that mine to yours.
43:30Yeah, I prefer yours to mine as well.
43:33I make...
43:34Oh, you bastard.
43:37Whoopsie.
43:37Just to turn you on to a run inside me thighs.
43:42It was a strategic move, honestly.
43:44It was the plan.
43:44It wasn't me being in sweat.
43:46All part of the plan.
43:48I thought she was beautiful, eh?
43:49Lovely girl.
43:50I would definitely give her a swipe, right?
43:51Yeah.
43:52Yeah.
43:53I'm not going to give too much away, like,
43:54in case you mugged me off next month.
43:58No, no, honestly, no, like, splits.
44:00Oh, stop being noble, I'll get it.
44:02I got me family allowance today, it's all right.
44:08Hello, yo.
44:15Would you like to see each other again?
44:17Yeah, yeah.
44:18Definitely.
44:18Oh, bloody hell, definitely.
44:20Well, Keen, yeah.
44:22Yeah, yeah, definitely.
44:23Yeah, she's mega-self nice.
44:24Really friendly, really nice, and she ain't too bad on the iris.
44:30I'll be a gentleman and get the door, don't you?
44:32Definitely a bit of me.
44:33Oh, bloody hell.
44:34Definitely, yeah.
44:35I've always said if someone can make me laugh, then.
44:38That's it.
44:39Ugly fucker.
44:41You can't have that in.
44:42Ugly man.
44:43What would it make us laugh?
44:45Nice.
44:46Nice, isn't it?
44:46Ooh.
44:50Maybe your one-liners are good.
44:53Jokes are good.
44:54Yeah.
44:55That's it.
44:55You keep laughing.
44:56I think it's a successful first day.
44:57What?
44:57Oh, oh, oh, oh.
45:00Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
45:02Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
45:09Hey!
45:10Hey!
45:10Hey!
45:11Hey!
45:11How are you?
45:12Oh, no.
45:12How are you, Mrs. Cyriac?
45:14I'm good, thank you.
45:15Lovely to see you.
45:16Lovely to see you, too.
45:18This will be an everlasting love.
45:21I think that's a successful first day.
45:23I would say yes.
45:25Yes.
45:26Agreed.
45:27It's the first time anyone has loved me.
45:33I'm so glad you did it, really, really time.
45:37And I'm so glad that you get to find my mind.
45:41Guys, we got you a little wedding gift.
45:47Thank you, man.
45:50This is brilliant.
45:52Wow.
45:53And we've all signed the back as well, so you've got a little love.
45:57Oh, brilliant.
46:02Derek, you have a wonderful voice.
46:05But I'm sure you've been told that many times.
46:07I don't know about this, but it's nice to hear you say so.
46:09You've brought a lot of sunshine into my life.
46:19It's something worth having as I never knew.
46:22Thanks, cheers.
46:23Oh, thank you.
46:24Thank you, guys.
46:26And no one, no one can take the place that you will.
46:30You just make me laugh.
46:31And I love that.
46:33What does that?
46:33I laugh the whole way through.
46:35Yeah, we thought we'd been kicked out of the restaurant for laughing, didn't we?
46:38I'm squeezing and kissing and pleasing together forever through freedom, whatever.
46:41Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
46:43You and me.
46:44So long as I'm living true love, I'll be giving to you.
46:47I'll be serving because you're so deserving.
46:49Hey, you're so deserving.
46:52I might be a bit late tomorrow morning.
47:22For now, from now out, from now out, from now out.
