00:17Wow, this is the really hard bit.
00:20You need a spark, you need to fancy each other.
00:23The ideal relationship is where we can just have a laugh together,
00:27have a few dates and then the jiggy-jiggy comes after.

04:09yet I don't know I shouldn't have to compromise I don't think or is it the fact that you just
04:21haven't met anyone who's driving a portion what makes you think I'm looking for someone who's driving a
04:36Porsche first dates don't let me go to second dates because we normally have too much to drink and

13:18you know right from the you know her checklist to her business to her holiday destinations
13:26so i'll be intrigued to know how i turned out with the on the dating front
13:37you put whatever you feel comfortable putting in

14:47Oh, not too bad, thank you.
14:49It's Mr Davis.
14:55Pleased to meet you. Are you OK? And you? Yes.
14:58My grandson said the magic words to me,
15:01Nanny, you know, I think you need someone to look after you.
15:04And I thought, oh, bless his heart, you know.
15:07And I thought, well, yes, it would be fun, you know,
15:10just to see if there is somebody out there.
15:12I see it's got the aged Lancashire trees tart.
15:16Have you noticed that?
15:17Yes.
15:24Do you like travelling?
15:26Yes, I do.
15:27You do?
15:28Yeah, I travelled quite a bit.
15:30I didn't go to India this January, but I was going to go.
15:33But I had nobody to go with.
15:34There's nothing in my mind that puts me off meeting a new partner.
15:40I might be lucky and I might live another 20 years,
15:44but I'd hate to think that I'm going to be on my own for the next 20 years,
15:48so I would much prefer to have a partner.
15:51I lost my wife three years ago, and are you widowed or divorced?
15:58I've divorced a long, long time ago.
16:00Yes.
16:01Yes, my husband decided to be with his best friend's wife many, many years ago,
16:09about 32 years ago now.
16:1132 years ago.
16:11So, you know, I've had...
16:13You must have had some men friends in that time.
16:16One of two.
16:17Um, just two actually possibly serious relationships, but nothing very long.
16:21Yeah?
16:21I've had a dog, you see, for 16 years, bless his heart, who was, um, great...
16:27Great company.
16:28Yeah.
16:29Yeah.
16:29Yeah.
16:36I know this is quite a lot to take in, really, but when I married my wife,
16:42she had a daughter, Michelle, who was 14, and Michelle got cancer in 2007.
16:50She had lung cancer, and then my wife got cancer, same as my daughter, lung cancer,
16:59then brain cancer, and they both died.
17:02My wife died on the 24th of February, and my daughter died on the 13th of March.
17:06Oh, heaven.
17:07So, you know, I didn't know where I was at first year.
17:11No, you wouldn't.
17:12Oh, did not know.
17:13I mean, the years that you had together.
17:16Yeah.
17:16Oh, the wonderful times and the photographs and...
17:20But there, and they've made you you.
17:22Mm.
17:22You know, they really have.
17:26Yeah.
17:27So, yeah, golf is an interest of mine.
17:29That's probably my number one.
17:30Yeah.
17:30Football.
17:31Mm.
17:31I mean, I have quite, I'm afraid to say, I have quite manly interests.
17:35Well, actually, on one side, I have quite manly interests.
17:38Of course.
17:38Otherwise, you will be gay.
17:49I know I'm punching above my weight, but you never know.
17:52Shut off.
17:52A few more wines.
17:53Shut off.
17:54You never know.
17:55You never know why.
17:56An hour later, and DJ Terry's using all his best lines on mental health work at Kimberley.
18:02You've got a very, sort of, petite figure, so you've got to make sure you get something that...
18:06Petite.
18:08Pretty skinny girl, aren't you?
18:10Is that all right?
18:11Yeah.
18:13That's the worst thing you can say.
18:14Yeah.
18:15You've got some nice shapes.
18:17I want to show it up.
18:18Can it?
18:19Oh, thank you.
18:22I'm not trying to get in your knickers, either.
18:32I think I could have a really good night out with him.
18:34He seems really fun and really outgoing, like myself.
18:38So, I think we could have a good night out, and I would see him again.
18:46It's like, there's a blonde girl, nice body, she's wearing a flesh-coloured dress.
18:50It looks like she's naked, you know?
18:52My eyes were like that.
18:53Boop, boop.
18:55But...
18:56And then, at the same time, I know the sort of girl that I want long-term.
19:00So, I'm thinking, do we go out and have a couple of cheeky drinks, maybe end up in bed,
19:05and then I'm back to square one.
19:06What do you do?
19:09What do you do?
19:16Oh, shit.
19:25You all right, sweetheart?
19:28Have you been easy on me?
19:29Oh, my God.
19:30I have.
19:30I've been nice.
19:31You've best have been nice.
19:32My bad.
19:36Thanks very much, thank you.
19:37She's got my pyjamas in here.
19:39Goodnight, mate.
19:40Cheers.
19:43But, yeah, we'll probably have a couple of drinks, and, um, because we're like mates already,
19:47aren't we?
19:47And then we just see how it goes from there.
19:49Yeah.
19:49The mates touch each other there.
19:53No.
19:55No.
19:56No.
19:57No.
19:58No.
20:24No.
20:28No.
20:28No.

21:09No.
21:10No.
21:12This London restaurant is full of singles on a first date with a stranger
21:25What's your sort of dating do you do a lot of the dates probably my first proper date date?
21:36Boys don't really in Swindon don't particularly ask out on dates
21:40They go to pull
21:43So I actually walked up to me in a club and was like and poured a drink down my tarp
21:48and said oh
21:49Your wrap look like it needed cooling off
21:53Thank you, but no what you do in your spare time
21:56Talk disabled kids in China
21:59It's working at a school there and then part of the time they gave me like a day off a
22:03week on a Wednesday
22:05To go to the sunshine school where I teach these not teach us don't like help these kids like do
22:11swimming
22:12We play a bit of football. That's really lovely
22:16Do you are anywhere else when you're got here was it just trying I work mainly in China
22:20That's why I've got the money to then go to Australia
22:23Where did what about did you go I've worked on a crocodile farm
22:26My god and a dog like brewing like rearing sort of where this woman that trained dogs for like dog
22:34shows
22:34Wow, I wanted to take this dog home
22:37Right
22:38Well, then I forgot Justine to my favorite blonde Labrador
22:43I should always come up to me and we'd go and walk. Oh, I love Justine. I'll take her home
22:48Okay
23:01I've enjoyed it. I enjoy it. Definitely. I've enjoyed it. Yeah, I enjoyed it as well
23:08Would you do something like this again? Yeah
23:12Definitely
23:13Even though if you had to come in from Swindon. Yeah
23:17I like to think that's quite good chemistry, but I don't know I don't want to say there is in
23:21case he's like
23:22Oh, no, there wasn't any at all. It'd be like
23:25awkward. I fancied him
23:27So, yeah
23:31It's quite good. I enjoyed it
23:33What do you want to do you want to stay here joining to the bar? Do you want to go?
23:37I think go to the bar. Yeah, I'll grab us one drink each and then we'll go
23:59I think I'd love to see Tom again whether that's at the rugby with his friends or on his own
24:13Either way, I'd like to see him again
24:16I didn't realise how tall you are until you stood out
24:18Just naturally good looking and tall
24:23Why should you go out with me well?
24:26Wow, this is the really hard bit. Oh, I'm just totally
24:33Loopy, you know at times
24:35I've become very interested in clocks
24:41I have got a small collection of clocks although all my friends say I've got too many
24:48That's probably a bit personal
24:52Few hours
24:55And I'm slowly learning how to repair the clocks
25:00I go along to this
25:03Knitting group believe it or not
25:06Yeah, and he just really got onto what you'd call proper knitting. I'm halfway through a baby's jumper at the
25:12moment
25:14Is sex on the agenda when I'm 68?
25:17Definitely on the agenda
25:19You know where you're knitting a jumper or something and you cast off for the sleeves
25:24For some reason that's the point I get stuck
25:26Yeah, it's a trial and error thing I think at 68
25:30I mean, I've been on my own now for three years
25:33So I don't really know how I would react
25:37Um if circumstances
25:39Allowed that in the near future
25:42What you want is a pattern like I've started on for this baby jumper
25:47Where you knit the rib and then you knit the body
25:50And then it increases for the arms and the neck opening you drop stitches for and then you carry on
25:55and it's exactly the same
25:57I think sometimes older men actually couldn't be frightened that women can be too demanding. They're worried that perhaps
26:04You know you might be expecting to perform something they can't do
26:08Have you read 50 shapes of grey?
26:10No, I haven't
26:11Oh, you've heard of it?
26:12Yeah, I've heard of it
26:13I know in the library it was one of the books of the month wasn't it?
26:17Yeah, it was
26:17Yeah, I know a couple of the ladies
26:19Thank you
26:20The knitting of
26:21Have they read all three?
26:22I don't know
26:25Yeah, definitely a little spark there but
26:29You would have to meet somebody I think a few more times to be sure but there was definitely a
26:35spark there. Yeah
26:37I mean the friendship can go on then you can have the spark or sometimes there's a spark and there's
26:40a friendship
26:41Yeah, but you know, I think you need the two together you do
26:46And that's when it works
26:48Yeah, it does
26:51With Richard, you know, I said it's like a fire, you know
26:54A fire can glow, can't it?
26:56And then
26:57Later on it can just suddenly flare up so
27:00Who knows?
27:02Take care and thank you very much
27:04It's been a pleasure meeting you
27:06We're keeping contact and you never know because
27:09See where it goes from there
27:10We both like travelling and I'm looking for a partner for India next year
27:16Well, yes, they are
27:18I did say to you
27:19Well, that's an offer
27:21Yeah, that's an offer
27:23So
27:24So, yeah, we'll see how it goes
27:28Thank you
27:29Take care
27:30Anne and Richard have no plans to travel to India together
27:34But they have been emailing each other about clocks
27:39Hello, I'm Edmund, you're out there, I know you're out there

28:05Well, how are you?
28:06Sarah Jane
28:10Fantastic, would you actually leave your jackets in the closet?
28:12No, I'm too cold
28:16Hello
28:16Hi
28:17I'm Sarah, pleased to meet you
28:19Sarah Jane
28:19How's life?
28:20Sarah Jane
28:21It's freezing
28:22It's just a bit chilly out there, isn't it?
28:23Proper freezing
28:25Hi
28:25Hotel menu here
28:26I'll have a glass of wine, but could you put it in the microwave first?
28:31The last time I had a relationship was quite a few years ago
28:34You get that all the time of people saying to you, well, isn't it about time you met somebody?
28:40Okay, I'm trying
28:43Entrepreneur, do you work on a market?
28:45I do actually, yeah
28:46I sell fruit and veg and I've got watches
28:49Do you want to buy a watch?
28:50No, I've got a very nice watch
28:51It is very nice, isn't it?
28:54Come on, tell, spill
28:56Um, I don't, yeah
29:01Okay, take a breath
29:02I'll take a drink as well, I think
29:06I'm shy, I think I've just, you know, got apprehensive maybe about getting hurt
29:12It makes us all quite apprehensive about forming that union
29:21Guys, can I offer you some oysters maybe to start?
29:23You can just one each if you want to try it
29:24We don't want to have an aphrodisiac, it's the first date
29:28Wow, you're a feisty one, aren't you?
29:30You've got to have a giggle
29:31You have
29:32Life will be very boring if you can't have a giggle
29:34Indeed you do
29:40So what's grabbing your fancy?
29:42The dressed cock sounds quite nice
29:44The dressed what?
29:49Dress painting cock
29:51Oh, sorry, crab, apple and radish salad
29:56What would an undressed cock crab look like?
29:59I think I'm going to give that a miss
30:02Oh my goodness
30:09I'm sorry, I have to just, I'll be back in a minute
30:12Okay, do what you need to do
30:13Let me excuse myself
30:14No, don't worry, you don't need to excuse, go for it
30:18Oh my god
30:23Hi sweet, how are you?
30:25Good, how are you?
30:25Is it going well?
30:26Yes, yours?
30:27Totally not
30:28Not
30:29Where are you sitting?
30:30Nice guy
30:30Yeah
30:31Right by the door
30:32Nice guy
30:33Really nice
30:33Right, Rana
30:34Really nice guy but complete opposite
30:37Like
30:38I'm the girl in the middle of the dance world dancing
30:40Oh, he's the man in the corner
30:42Oh, nice
30:52Hello
30:53You all right, sorry
30:54Not too bad
30:55It's a bit of a queue
30:56Ah, it's always a way for you poor women, isn't it?
31:00You always have a queue in the toilet
31:06I think with hindsight I could have maybe been a bit more
31:10A bit more animated, a bit more lively
31:12But I think because I haven't really been dating
31:16I'm quite nervous and that comes across
31:19So how are you feeling now? A little bit more
31:22It's all good, it's all good
31:24Sure, a little bit more chilled now
31:26Scared and running for the hills quite yet
31:30Yes, that was an involuntary nod then
31:34Just like a nodding dog, I'm just like
31:36I kind of sat back and gave him the chance to be not quiet
31:40He didn't really take it
31:42The boat was good though
31:43For the most part
31:44And it was like one of those
31:46Oh, aeroplane going past
31:50Flowers
31:51You know, kind of moments where you're like
31:53Okay, really awkward now
31:54I'm going to talk because we can't sit here in complete silence for 10 minutes
31:57It's embarrassing
32:02I'm not really dating
32:03I'm not sort of going out on this first date
32:05So this is all a bit like
32:07That's my excuse
32:08It's my excuse
32:09Cheers, here's the good excuses
32:11Yeah
32:11We got on quite well as people
32:14And we had quite a connection as friends
32:18But I don't think there's any romantic connection between us is there
32:22Thank you, that was lovely
32:24I really enjoyed that
32:25Thank you
32:25Pleasure
32:27What?
32:27Hello
32:29You all right?
32:30There was no spark between Edmund and Sarah
32:33So they're both still searching for that special someone
32:48Hello
32:49Are we ready?
32:51Three, two, one action and all that
32:53I'm Will
32:54I'm 26
32:55I live in Hertfordshire
32:56My name is Faye
32:58And I am from Rosendale in Lancashire
33:01And I'm a cheerleading coach
33:03About a year ago I left the army
33:05I was in the army for six years
33:06You know, big time hero
33:08I like a man
33:10I like a man
33:12Yeah, a proper man
33:14So now I'm looking for a lady
33:15To kind of settle me down
33:17One that can tame the beast
33:21Yeah, a lot of people
33:23Ex-soldier Will has been single for three years
33:26I think the reason why I want to share my life with someone is because
33:30There's a lot of people in my life at the moment that are with people
33:34Even though I kind of like on first look I'm not envious of their relationship
33:38I don't kind of I don't wish to be in their situation at all because a lot of their girlfriends
33:42are pretty fat
33:43I'm joking again, I hope that doesn't go in
33:46I'm not envious of their relationships at all
33:48But I envy having someone to kind of share your life with
34:00And I'm absolutely nervous as anything
34:04Will's first date is cheerleading coach Faye from Lancashire
34:08Will
34:09Hi
34:10Hi, nice to meet you
34:11How are you?
34:11Give us a cuddle
34:12How are you?
34:13I'm not so bad
34:14How are you?
34:15Good, I like the accent
34:16You like it?
34:17Yeah, where are you from?
34:17Oh my gosh
34:18Up north
34:19Near Manchester
34:21Near Manchester
34:22So where are you from?
34:23I'm from Kent originally
34:24But I live around here
34:25You sound like you're from Essex
34:27No, not from Essex
34:28You sound like you are
34:29It's all the same
34:31It's all the same
34:31It's all the same
34:32Damn fair
34:33Can't really do accent
34:34Yeah, that was awful
34:35Was it?
34:36I don't want to put
34:37I thought that one was quite good
34:41I'm kind of the typical little girl who's watched all the Disney films and things
34:47I would like one day to
34:49I'm not saying like tomorrow
34:50But one day I would like to get married and have children, you know
34:55How are you mate?
34:57How's your drink so far?
34:58Brilliant, thank you
34:59Ready to go?
35:00Yes
35:02You have to next time soon because I want to get pissed out my face
35:04Oh great stuff
35:06Great stuff
35:10I think that you have to have a drink on a date because it's a mixture between kind of nerves
35:14and you get to know someone better
35:18Do you want to get some water?
35:19You might need some water
35:21Yeah, right
35:22Go have some water
35:23Still as well
35:24Still
35:25So what are you going to eat?
35:27Do you know yet?
35:28Not into fish
35:29Do you like fish?
35:30There's not
35:30There's not a meal that I don't eat
35:32Really?
35:33Not one thing
35:34Semolina
35:35Have you ever had semolina?
35:36Yeah
35:36It's like it's the most hideous pudding in the world
35:39It fools you because it looks like rice pudding
35:41So it fools you to think you know look lovely rice pudding
35:43It tastes similar to you know how
35:46Shit smells
35:47That's how it tastes
35:48So it tastes like if you take a big whiff of shit
35:52It's like eating that
35:53That's what semolina is
35:54Yeah
35:55Lesson one
35:56Right
35:56I don't think I'll be having the semolina then
36:07Hello
36:07You're all right
36:08How are you?
36:09You're all right
36:09Thank you
36:21How are you?
36:28I'm fine
36:29I've already eaten
36:29But I'm not that hungry
36:31I think it might be nerves
36:32Do you think I'm intimidating?
36:35You're joking
36:38I thought you was going to hit me
36:40Stab me or something
36:42Stab you?
36:44It's a bit harsh
36:45No I think the whole situation is quite nerve-breaking isn't it?
36:48I have applied to be in the you know um be like a special constable in the police
36:55And I did my exams the other day for the first time and I passed
36:59I would like to be a policewoman one day
37:06Do you know what Corrie?
37:07I have done before once
37:08Biggie's dead there
37:10There's loads of paedophiles on there aren't there now
37:14Do you believe it?
37:16I don't know I think like
37:18To be honest I know this sounds really bad
37:20If they are innocent then I feel a bit sorry for him
37:23Over the last year so many people have come out the woodwork
37:26And you wonder why now?
37:28Yeah
37:28It's like Savile what someone should have done
37:30It said just look at that guy's face
37:32He's definitely a paedophile
37:33But I don't think they're allowed to convict someone just by the look of their face
37:36Oh great
37:37Oh that was well thank you
37:40Thank you
37:40I'm going to need to the toilet
37:49How's it going?
37:51He's such a good little boy
37:53Oh really?
37:54Yeah like I'm here and he's like here
37:57Oh no
37:58So
37:59For my day he's talking about paedophiles and stuff so yeah
38:05He's only like
38:06I think he's nervous like we're having a bit of banter but he's talking about paedophiles
38:12And he's talking about oh I don't know makes me laugh
38:17Yeah, no you go
38:26You've been waiting long hours it seems
38:29Oh I'm so sorry
38:31Thank you very much
38:32I phoned my brother in there he goes to me
38:35He goes
38:36He goes is it good?
38:37I said yeah
38:38He goes what's she like?
38:39I said she seems nice
38:41He goes what kind of hair she got?
38:42I said she's a blonde
38:44He goes
38:45He's blonde?
38:46Yeah
38:46He goes
38:48If you're fingering
38:52I said it's not like that mate
38:54I said I don't think there's going to be much fingering
38:58I just done too much I think I just think
39:01Without wanting I'm not willingly this outrageous person
39:04Yeah, we're three two-year relationships and then the last one she was in the army
39:08I was in the army for a brief time. We was engaged when we did split up. I was heartbroken
39:13I was heartbroken, but I forget that and I forget that I've got the capability or the ability to be
39:18heartbroken
39:18So that's why I think I'm so kind of
39:21Out there
39:23Is that what you normally do on a first date?
39:27It's usually just straight bread job
39:32You must go on some good first dates
39:34You must go on some good first dates
39:49Fantastic ones
39:51I like milk and I like cheese
39:53It's like you do yourself
39:55I love raspberries as well
39:58Raspberries, blueberries, strawberries
39:59I always find raspberries too tart though
40:01They're always quite sharp, yeah
40:04If a date was going horrible, I would probably be quite British about it and smile and go
40:11Yeah, that's very nice. Yeah, I love curry. Yeah, but I would probably endure it
40:18I love lemons. I went through a phase of like really wanting like really lemony stuff
40:25And like all the lemon flavored or lemon stuff that you could get in shops just wasn't cutting it, so
40:29I made a lemon cake
40:35Oh, I don't even know
40:37Hmm
40:44It was
40:47Different
40:49Favorite drink
40:51I have a really big desire to say milk something milk
40:57Chocolate milkshake
40:59Oh, um, it would probably be something at the moment like Fanta or like lemon Fanta
41:05I'm not gonna lie there wasn't like an immediate spark
41:08But I think it's one of those things that it's it's a bit like mold it's a grower so
41:12I don't know
41:16No spark no
41:19Not even not even
41:20I was basically in a tunnel with a gate with a with it wasn't even a gate it was a
41:25like a
41:26a boulder at the end of it
41:29There was no light
41:38It's been nice
41:39I'm enjoying yourself
41:40Yeah, it's been really really enjoyable
41:42It's been really good fun
41:52I think it went really well. Yeah, I think it
41:55Um, was really good to sort of meet someone new and have a conversation with someone that you've never had
42:01before
42:02Um, and I think meeting people from sort of different parts of the country and different cultures and different backgrounds
42:08and
42:09Just different everything someone that you wouldn't normally meet in sort of day-to-day life back home
42:13So I think it's really nice. Yeah
42:17Yeah, no, I do. It's nice. No, it is. It's nice to meet someone new and you know, it um
42:24It was enjoyable. I had a nice night. Yeah, it was really really good fun
42:36Oh
42:37Excuse me, can we get a bill please?
42:39You did that lovely then well done
42:42You said it nicely your mum would be proud of you no swearing no nothing
42:48Excuse me, can we get the fucking bill please?
42:51We can't
42:53I say it just to show people I'm not scared of saying it
42:57I'm scared
42:58Let's go
42:59I'd have rather do it run on from the off really
43:02Thank you very much
43:03Oh my god
43:07Hiya
43:08Oh my god
43:11I just thought what are you saying don't say this I don't want to I don't want to know that
43:16oh
43:17Bless him. I think you I don't even because you were nervous
43:20He might have been talking a bit of word vomit, but I was just like oh, no, please don't
43:26I hope it just made me feel really awkward. Thank you. See you later
43:32At the end of the night I gave him a number, but I didn't feel like she wanted it much
43:38Oh, well, thank you very much. It's been lovely to meet you
43:41I've really enjoyed tonight. Thank you me as well. It was lovely
43:45Honestly, though, did you feel like this far? No, I didn't feel this well
