06:09Here we go.
06:10It's a long time since I've done this.
06:11I've never had a blind date.
06:13Never.
06:13And I haven't had a date in ten years.
06:14I can't remember one.
06:15In ten years?
06:16Okay.
06:17Born again version, eh?
06:20Don't be saying those things to me.
06:22What?
06:23I wouldn't really have a type, to be honest.
06:25I try not to.
06:26And go a person.
06:27I didn't talk to everybody, you know.
06:29Because look, I haven't been out with anybody a long time later, so.
06:32I love the earring.
06:33I know, I love the earring.
06:34He's a cool dude.
06:37You still got it.
06:38Still vague.
06:39You're the same age as me.
06:40I don't know.
06:41Hey.
06:4165?
06:42I'm 67 in October.
06:44Oh, are you a labourer?
06:45Yeah.
06:46Oh, for fuck's sake.
06:47Are you?
06:47No, I'm Scorpio.
06:48My dad is a...
06:49I used to think it was a Scorpio,
06:50and he brought up with me straight on that one.
06:52What date?
06:53What date?
06:53What date, didn't he?
06:54Because he knows the dates, you know.
06:55Oh, yeah, yeah.
06:55What date in October?
06:56It was the 16th, though, yeah.
06:5816th of October?
06:58Yeah.
06:59St. Gerard's Day.
07:01Yeah.
07:01Oh, for God's sake.
07:03St. John.
07:07Of prostitutes.
07:0716th of October?
07:09Where are you mothers?
07:14Sorry to...
07:20Meet siblings Harry and Ava.
07:23They're about to try a little tenderness...
07:25for a change.
07:29There used to be a lot of, like, fighting and, like, tickles and stuff like that.
07:33Oh, yeah.
07:33I used to hate it.
07:34I used to get kicked in the face.
07:35I learned.
07:36This is number one rule.
07:38Whenever your older brother is trying to attack you with whatever...
07:42Tickle.
07:43Tickle, yeah.
07:44But you get down on your back so you can kick with the legs, because that's the strongest
07:47part of your body.
07:48It was the cockroach approach, and you actually look like one as well, so...
07:52The cockroach.
07:53The smell of you in every single dream.
07:56Number one word would be charmer.
07:58I think that's what he likes to describe himself as.
08:00But no, I think Harry's actually very kind.
08:02She's such a lovely person.
08:04I couldn't say much bad about Ava, which is a pity, but...
08:07We've arrived.
08:08Mateo.
08:08Mateo.
08:09Harry.
08:10Nice to meet you.
08:10Ava, what's the connection?
08:12Brother and sister.
08:13Ah, cool.
08:14Mama's gonna get a shot.
08:15I hope.
08:17I wouldn't, like, avoid talking to somebody if Harry was there.
08:19I'd let her know that I know what's happening.
08:21You have to as the older brother.
08:23Yeah.
08:23It'd be rude if you didn't.
08:24It's gonna be a...
08:25You watch my sister.
08:26Oh, well.
08:27We'll have to see.
08:28I'll have a little look.
08:28I'll have a little look if I...
08:30I think I'm a bit of a goody-two-shoes.
08:32You make yourself out to be, yeah.
08:33Yeah.
08:33Those are new stories that we know.
08:35I think I like...
08:35Yeah, that's true.
08:36It makes it easy on Ava when I'm around, because of my actions and what I've done before.
08:40100%, yeah.
08:40I get away with a lot more when he's around.
08:42What is the last time we got a...
08:44Brother and a sister.
08:45What did we?
08:45I had one last night.
08:49Oh, this is the way we start.
08:52That's a good start.
08:54I know what the standard is like now.
08:55I definitely think I don't know the full story of, you know, his history of dating and obviously
09:00I don't know how he is with girls, so maybe, maybe he is the problem.
09:03You both have really, really nice smiles and very similar.
09:06Same orthodontist.
09:08Oh, really?
09:08The one unnatural part of ourselves that is the best part of ourselves.
09:11Who is your orthodontist?
09:12I want to go there.
09:13Myself and my sister have had our own work done, so when you've had your own work done,
09:17maybe you just look at others and compare yourself.
09:19I'm straight teeth.
09:19It's just something I always saw was nice and attracted me.
09:23We'll bring his card next time.
09:24Do.
09:24There is a next time.
09:25I hope there's not a next time.
09:27That means this one won't go well.
09:29I don't think you put yourself out there enough.
09:30No, I don't think I do either.
09:31I think you're probably at a stage in your life now where you're actually ready to do that
09:35and I think you really do deserve to find the right person now.
09:38We're feeling well.
09:39I actually feel relaxed, yeah.
09:40We look great.
09:41First blind date ever.
09:42It's my first blind date ever, yeah.
09:44Could be our last date ever, Harry.
09:47I go out with this group to gigs and stuff like that, so I'm going out with a few people
09:53from there.
09:54Oh, right.
09:55But we'll be going to concerts and stuff like that.
09:58Gotcha.
09:58The relationship was I was married for 25 years and two little children and we kind
10:04of grew apart, I suppose, over the years.
10:06We were together very young, so.
10:08No, but I have a friend called Gerry and we go out often for a pint.
10:11Oh, yeah.
10:11And then we might go, there might be a show on in the Burgos and he'll ring me and say,
10:15do you fancy going?
10:16Yeah.
10:16As a young girl, I was always out and about and meeting fellas and I even had a, you know,
10:22a lesbian relationship in my very early twenties.
10:25She was a friend and all of a sudden, she wasn't.
10:27She was more.
10:28And that lasted for two years.
10:30But I, I mean, she knew I wasn't gay.
10:32I didn't know what the hell I was doing, but we had a good time and we've travelled the world.
10:36I met a fella that I, I met down in Tribalga and I was with him for a bit.
10:40Probably about the same yourself to be honest.
10:42It was just a friendship really, but you know.
10:43Yeah.
10:44Things happened.
10:45Good.
10:47Okay, so.
10:48Then I met my daughter's father who I fell head over heels with.
10:53That didn't work out.
10:54After that, every other relationship I'd walk away from.
10:57Before it got any further.
10:58Because I wasn't getting hurt again.
11:00So I built a wall.
11:01A plumber.
11:02A plumber.
11:02Yes.
11:03Very nice.
11:04Would you be a plumber?
11:05Yeah, well, I couldn't.
11:06I could do one myself.
11:07Jesus.
11:08When you get home, I know.
11:09Tell me about it.
11:10When you're younger, it's different.
11:12It's a little bit hot and sweaty.
11:13And you know, you're meeting people all the time, really.
11:15And that's how you get to know people.
11:16And you can start going out on dates and stuff like that.
11:18So when I met my missus and that.
11:20We were quite young, you know, then.
11:22So then when you, when you come back into, onto the scene, as they say.
11:25Or you know, you're available again.
11:26You don't know who you are even in the comics.
11:28So it's all brand new.
11:33What kind of person is it that you're looking to meet?
11:36Definitely a dancer.
11:37We can dance if we want to.
11:39We can leave your friends behind.
11:42Not like a good dancer or a bad dancer.
11:44At my last family wedding, I got shin splints the next morning from the height of dancing.
11:49So I need someone on a bad level.
11:50I'm ready to do that.
11:51Oh my God.
11:52Are you ready for it?
11:54I am a dancer.
11:55Now whether I'm good or not, I don't know.
11:57But especially after a few drinks and a night out, I'm the first person to go up to the front.
12:00And I do these kind of crazy dance moves like the lawnmower and playing tennis.
12:05I don't know if they're actually real ones.
12:06Let me realise like why we're single.
12:08Yeah.
12:09Yeah.
12:10Michelle's date should choose their next move very carefully.
12:14Less freestyle, more quick step.
12:16I'm a bit wild.
12:18So I need someone who will match my energy.
12:21Nice to meet you.
12:21Michelle.
12:22Nice to meet you, Michelle.
12:23Mateo, nice to meet you.
12:24You look lowly.
12:26Mom, I'd say I'd be happy enough for anyone who's just nice.
12:30My sister will probably, if they're good with her kids, then she'll be happy.
12:35My brother will probably be hard to impress as well.
12:37Your date is at the bar.
12:39Okay.
12:39With another girl, but we can get rid of her.
12:42Yeah.
12:42So we do this, yeah.
12:43Oh great this year.
12:44Alright, Michelle, let's do this.
12:45Like I can be a bit awkward, but when they go in for a hug, then I'm like, okay, that's
12:48fine.
12:49We're gonna get on great.
12:49How are you doing?
12:51How are you?
12:52Nice to meet you.
12:52What's your name?
12:53Michelle.
12:54How are you doing?
12:55Harry.
12:55Hi.
12:56Nice to meet you.
12:58It might be a little bit confusing.
13:01We can explain everything.
13:02His siblings?
13:03Yes.
13:04I think for a split second I was like, oh my god, what's happening?
13:08And then, like their faces are the same.
13:12So who's older?
13:14You have a bit of a baby face.
13:15Absolutely, yeah, I get that.
13:18Oh, I actually don't know.
13:20Okay.
13:21So I'm 24.
13:22Okay.
13:22I'm 21.
13:23Oh, lovely.
13:24What are you?
13:2524.
13:25Very good, very good.
13:27So yeah, I do the baby face stuff.
13:29Yeah, you do.
13:30He keeps telling me that it's gonna be good when he's older.
13:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:33Michelle, longevity of it.
13:35Exactly.
13:35Trust me, it's the future plan.
13:38Guys, I might just save you instead.
13:39Yeah, that's better.
13:40Why not?
13:41This is better, but maybe not.
13:42Maybe you're like, actually, no.
13:47I've worked in Tesco's for years.
13:48It's true, yeah.
13:49And I'm one of those people just presenting the apps to everyone.
13:52There you go.
13:52Can't get you out of the shop.
13:55I'd like to have a little bit of a connection.
13:58It doesn't mean I have to be instantly attracted to him.
14:01Just that little bit of, I like him.
14:03You know, he makes me laugh.
14:04Well, you see, that's what I'm trying to do.
14:06I mean, I was, I was 21 stone.
14:08Oh.
14:09And I've gone down, I've gone down about six stone at the moment.
14:13Right.
14:13And I'm still going.
14:14Yeah, yeah, yeah.
14:15We are all broken in a certain way.
14:17Something small in some people, something big in others.
14:20But we all have to try and get the sticky glue and stick the bits back so that they start
14:25to shine again.
14:28I don't care if they're posh or if they're from Cork and they have an accent.
14:32Like, it doesn't, not that Cork isn't posh.
14:34Maybe don't put that in the show.
14:36Too late.
14:38That said, how could anyone take exception to a lovely fella like John?
14:45I'm honest.
14:46I think I'm kind.
14:49And, yeah, I'm really handsome as well.
14:53Missed that.
14:53How's it going?
14:54How are you?
14:55Your name?
14:55John.
14:56Mighty John, huh?
14:57Matteo?
14:58Yeah, that's what you want.
14:58Yeah, let's go.
14:59I think firm handshake or like soft handshake.
15:01Oh, no, Asi, firm.
15:02I set the standard.
15:03Yeah, all right.
15:04There's nothing worse than a limp hand.
15:06No.
15:07No, yeah, yeah, yeah.
15:08I'm the older brother.
15:09Yeah, yeah.
15:10This is, this is getting too real.
15:13Why is it cool?
15:14When you make contact with someone that you're like, flirting with, it's like, pretty cool.
15:19Hi, how's it going?
15:20How are you?
15:21John.
15:22What's your name?
15:23Ava.
15:23Nice to meet you, Ava.
15:24You look gorgeous, by the way.
15:25Thank you very much.
15:25What are your intentions with my sister?
15:27John.
15:27How are you?
15:28Brother and sister.
15:30What the hell?
15:31I'm sorry, what's your name?
15:33Nice to meet you, Ava.
15:34This is a bit, a bit of a different thing.
15:36Yeah, it's a bit weird.
15:37I'll offer you the chair because he got lost.
15:39Oh, yeah.
15:41John, isn't it?
15:42Wait, wait, how about, how about we just do one day and then?
15:44Oh, yeah.
15:45Thank you, thank you.
15:46Yeah, that makes sense, well.
15:47They might be young, but they're not lost, you know?
15:50Not young.
15:54Would you like a drink?
15:55Yeah, I would love a drink.
15:57Can I get a Jermison and ginger please?
15:59Oh, nice.
16:01Honestly, somebody could ask me for dinner and I would just be like, yeah, just as friends,
16:04rather than me being, you know, unless they say like, oh, I actually kind of like you,
16:08would you like to have a date?
16:09Then it's a completely different story.
16:10I went over to Matteo and I was like, he was like, your date's over there and I was like,
16:14all right, why is there like three people over there?
16:17You get to choose, it's like, it's like straight away, who do you want?
16:20You can choose harmony if you want, like you.
16:22Yeah, maybe, no, I don't really say it that way, so it'll be great.
16:25Yeah, I do like a little bit of my tea, maybe not on the first date though.
16:29I only just got a job on Monday.
16:32Okay, tell me about it.
16:32Up in Dublin.
16:33Okay.
16:34Yeah, doing like kind of consulting kind of stuff.
16:36Okay, that's weird.
16:36Yeah, in Deloitte.
16:38Deloitte.
16:39Oh, big four.
16:40Yeah, yeah, I know.
16:41I prefer just meeting somebody in person.
16:43I think that's kind of where I strive the best and especially somebody that doesn't have
16:46any kind of pre-judgments of me or pre-ideas.
16:49What are you studying in college?
16:51Commerce in Spanish.
16:52Oh.
16:52Spanish?
16:53Yeah.
16:53Okay.
16:54A bit of Espanol.
16:55Okay, alright.
16:57I'm a personal trainer.
16:58One time personal trainer.
16:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:00I'd be busy, so if they want to see me, they're going to have to do a lot with me.
17:04That's the most amount of people I've seen at this bar.
17:15Yeah.
17:16I'm a single.
17:16It's going to holiday kind of stuff like where you can go.
17:18Loads.
17:18Loads of them over there.
17:19Now, I'd go with a bunch of girls, but I would kind of go just off on me own.
17:23Well, go away with the lads in the book club and stuff like that.
17:25Yeah.
17:26Are you a motorbiker?
17:27Yeah.
17:27Oh, God bless you.
17:28That's why you have the earring.
17:29Yeah.
17:30Badass rock, are you?
17:31I don't know.
17:32Shit.
17:33Yeah, it would be good if they were into music, yeah.
17:35You know, not necessarily playing instruments or anything like that, but just, you know,
17:37just to be, you know, open to go to concerts and what have you, you know.
17:41That's...
17:42What gigs do you go to?
17:43Yeah, yeah.
17:44Go to Wales.
17:45They'd have stuff on there in front of blues music and stuff like that.
17:47Do a bit of...
17:48Make a bit of blues now.
17:49It's quite nice.
17:50Do a bit of blues dancing then, as well.
17:52What's blues dancing?
17:53Dancing to the blues music, man.
17:54Oh, just...
17:55Yeah, look it up.
17:56It's really good.
17:57Like, is it holding with somebody else or...?
17:58Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:59It's like a social kind of thing.
18:00Oh, that sounds good.
18:02Yeah.
18:02So you keep yourself occupied.
18:03Yeah.
18:04How do you get there, as well?
18:06For a couple of people, a couple of days a week if I can, you know.
18:08Very nice.
18:09Yeah.
18:09I never know if the person wants to be with me or because of who I am.
18:14And that scares me.
18:15And that kind of puts me off being with others, as well.
18:18Yeah, I do a bit of singing myself, so...
18:19Yeah, yeah.
18:20Yeah.
18:20Good.
18:21Where'd you go?
18:22Uncle.
18:23Down the pub.
18:25Cardioca, isn't it?
18:25Yeah, I do.
18:26I do that, as well, yeah.
18:27Do you ever go to the Kennedys up on Thomas Street?
18:29Yes.
18:30With, er...
18:31With McKellie and all them.
18:32Yeah, yeah.
18:32Good crack.
18:34You don't recognise me, do you?
18:36No.
18:37Do I know you?
18:37I love it.
18:38I love it.
18:39Do I know you?
18:40No.
18:41No?
18:41No kidding.
18:42Yes, I do.
18:44Do you ever watch The X back there?
18:46No.
18:47Good.
18:47That's even better again.
18:48Well, I'm already bored, are you?
18:50Fuck off.
18:51Sorry.
18:52You do do a bit of singing, don't you?
18:55Right?
18:56Do you know what I like?
18:57Do you know what I like?
18:57I never thought of it.
18:58Do you know what I like?
18:59Do you know what I like?
19:00We got to know each other a little bit better without even knowing who the hell I was.
19:04Yeah.
19:04You know, that's brilliant.
19:06It makes you laugh, isn't it?
19:07That's exactly what I want.
19:08Oh, that is what I asked for.
19:09You did ask the question, didn't you?
19:11Oh, you never said it.
19:12Because at that time, you never got it.
19:12I only asked it because I was trying to tell you what I did.
19:15When you said, do you sing in the local pubs?
19:17Okay.
19:18I kind of panicked.
19:21When I came over at first, it was like a blur.
19:23I couldn't.
19:24Because you're in a bubble.
19:25And you come over, and I was scared.
19:27And they wanted me to stay in the UK.
19:29And I didn't want to stay in the UK.
19:31I didn't mind going back and forth and doing gigs.
19:34But in order to do what they wanted me to do, I would have had to stay there for another
19:37six months.
19:37I got my album.
19:39I was doing the tour.
19:40I was as happy as anything.
19:42And then I got the call to say I was opening for Neil Diamond.
19:44So, I mean, I was 50 odd years of age.
19:4651 I was at that stage.
19:48And it was a fabulous opportunity.
19:50And I was happy enough with that.
19:51I mean, I had a one-moment show that told my whole life story.
19:54Are you serious?
19:55And music.
19:56It was very good.
19:56It was only last year.
19:58It's hopefully coming back next year to do smaller places around the country that haven't seen it.
20:03For me, the scariest thing I've ever done, standing on the stage on my own, telling a story.
20:07And singing.
20:08Singing it didn't bother me.
20:09Telling a story.
20:11It was the biggest success than I ever thought.
20:14Oh, if it comes back, definitely if we're still kind of talking to each other, or even if we're not,
20:18just give me your number and I'll send it out to you.
20:21Give me a ticket.
20:22You just don't know what that person's agenda is until you get to know them.
20:26And then sometimes it'd be too late.
20:27You know, you're falling for them and then you realise they're only there for one thing and wanting only.
20:31I know people who have met later, their age.
20:33Yeah.
20:34Go to them and gone on to have very happy life, moved in together.
20:41I said to my friend, I said, if I come back pregnant from this, it's not my fault.
20:45It's a miracle.
20:47It's a miracle.
20:48It's a miracle.
20:49I'll just snipped 20 odd years ago.
20:50You'll be doing well.
20:52That's good.
20:52That's good.
20:58I'll be honest and say, I'm warm mains desserts.
21:01I am safe.
21:02Are you?
21:03Michelle, let's go.
21:05This is going great.
21:06That's a good start.
21:07If I had that, that's starters.
21:09I know, yeah.
21:10Why would you even pick me?
21:12I'd love the wings.
21:13Imagine the struggle.
21:14If I'm dripping wings, the wing juice.
21:16I know.
21:16But it's ballsy.
21:17It is ballsy.
21:18It does take balls.
21:19It does take balls.
21:20It might intimidate your man John over there.
21:22I know, yeah.
21:23He sees it all over my mouth.
21:24Oh my gosh.
21:25It must be such a mad thing for you seeing that we're here.
21:27I'm assuming you and your sister must be good friends.
21:29We get on quite well.
21:30Really well, yeah.
21:31I'd always put myself out there more than her.
21:34You're still going to be without the banter.
21:35Yeah.
21:36Don't realize it should crack.
21:38Which I'm not.
21:40They have to make me laugh a lot on the first date.
21:42And then, like, a little bit of flirtiness.
21:45When I was younger, I was like, I love makeup and beauty and stuff.
21:48So I did beauty therapy.
21:49Cool.
21:49Then I somehow got into a job doing dental nursing.
21:54Oh.
21:55Yeah, I was an orthodontic dental nurse.
21:56I swatted your braces.
21:57Oh.
21:58I was good.
21:59It's a beautiful smile.
22:02I appreciate that.
22:03No, listen.
22:03I even asked.
22:04I was like, dark hair, small, nice teeth.
22:07Were like three features that I am mad about.
22:10Oh, my God.
22:11Yeah, no.
22:12Smile is everything, right?
22:13No way.
22:14Oh, my God.
22:14So I've done okay, then.
22:16Yeah.
22:16Because it's probably the only compliment I get, Michelle.
22:19But you probably get it a lot, though.
22:21Look.
22:22It is.
22:22It's the only thing I get, really.
22:23It feels like a lot.
22:25It feels like a lot.
22:26Oh, my God.
22:26No.
22:26Oh.
22:27I would be quite confident in my appearance.
22:29I suppose.
22:30I don't think I'm Brad Pitt, but at the same time, I've accepted who I am.
22:33I was already mad into cars as well.
22:35I was applying for everything.
22:36Got the car dealership.
22:37Good job.
22:38That is it.
22:39Sales psychology.
22:40Oh, my God.
22:41So interesting.
22:42Oh, I'd say so.
22:42I do a lot of social media and stuff like that on the TikTok account for the dealership,
22:47which is really fun.
22:47I used to love making videos and stuff like that when I was younger.
22:50I always want everything.
22:51I want to, like, try a bit of everything.
22:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:53How about you pick something?
22:54Okay.
22:56And if you're going between something, I'll get the other thing.
22:58Because Ardie and...
22:59Okay.
23:00Interesting.
23:01Ardie and...
23:02That's a good one.
23:03I like that.
23:03Yeah.
23:05I really want someone I can look after, you know, I can bring out and spoil and stuff
23:09like that, like.
23:10Harry and I are so close in age that, like, at home, like, all my friends are all his
23:13friends and all his friends are all my friends, so...
23:16Yeah.
23:16We can't really be dating each other's friends either, so...
23:18I definitely had crushes on his friends growing up, 100%.
23:22I remember all his friends would come over for sleepovers and I'd be so excited.
23:26But they'd be hanging out with Harry.
23:27They wouldn't be hanging out with me.
23:28I'd just be the annoying little sister, you know?
23:30I should have brought my sisters on the show.
23:32Yeah, dear sisters.
23:33I've got three sisters, yeah.
23:34Would you be close with them, would you say?
23:36Yeah.
23:36Yeah, I'm really close with them.
23:37Okay.
23:37Like, yeah.
23:38Do you live at home with them now?
23:39Yeah.
23:40Yeah.
23:40It's a community college, so it's not the best.
23:42Yeah, which college are you in?
23:43Trini.
23:44Oh, very nice.
23:44Hey.
23:45Yeah, so...
23:46I don't feel like I'm maybe going to find the love of my life, you know, in a nightclub.
23:50It's very rare that that would happen.
23:52It would be nice to just meet somebody that I'm aware that we're both looking for something.
23:56I want to do something, like, finance-y, like...
23:59Yeah.
23:59Yeah, like, big four, Deloitte.
24:01Yeah.
24:01Yeah, no, I...
24:02You want to be me, is that what you're saying?
24:03Yeah, I know, yeah.
24:04I'll get a job with Deloitte there.
24:05I'll be ready for it.
24:06He's putting the word for me.
24:07I'm ambitious in relationships, but I'm also ambitious in what I want to do in my own
24:11life.
24:11Not to make it deep or anything, but I want to have a family.
24:14Yeah, yeah.
24:15Not too old, but not too young.
24:17Yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:17My parents always say that they kind of grew up with us.
24:20Okay, that's kind of fun, yeah.
24:22And I kind of want that.
24:23If I met the love of my life tomorrow, it wouldn't bother me that I haven't, like,
24:26dated loads of people.
24:27You know, I don't think there's any need to kind of say, oh, like, explore loads of different
24:32things, or...
24:33I think once you know, you know.
24:34I don't think I've left Europe before.
24:35Really?
24:36No.
24:36Wow.
24:37Gosh.
24:37It says you've been to America twice now.
24:40Yeah, it's like my personality trait.
24:41I actually was just in New York this weekend.
24:43This weekend?
24:44I came back on Tuesday, yeah.
24:45What?
24:46Yeah, so I spent the two of my last summers in, like, a camp in America.
24:50I was supposed to do that last year.
24:52No way.
24:52I paid my deposit and then I cancelled it.
24:54No way.
24:54It's like the best thing ever.
24:55Like, genuinely the highlight of, like, my life.
24:58Really?
24:58I would say.
25:02Well, you're not nervous at all.
25:04Weird, no.
25:05No.
25:05No.
25:06I thought you'd be nervous, like.
25:07Poor floor.
25:08Poor shaking.
25:09Before I go on stage, I am pacing the floors.
25:13Left, right and centre.
25:14I am shaking.
25:15I am praying.
25:16I am asking my mummy and daddy to walk out on stage with me.
25:20Then I go out on the stage.
25:21I believe that's not unusual.
25:22It's not unusual.
25:23Tom Jones said that as well.
25:26I am quite insecure in my looks, in me, and even in my singing.
25:33I'm very insecure in.
25:34I dread rejection because I've been rejected so many times.
25:38So I try to not get involved too close to someone because I know I'm going to be rejected at
25:44some stage.
25:44Because I become very needy.
25:46Because I'm scared.
25:48So would you drive down the country on it and all that?
25:50Yeah, yeah.
25:51Up around the mountains.
25:52Around health and places.
25:54Up the coast.
25:54We're going up that way.
25:56Wait for an hour or two.
25:57That's lovely.
25:57That's great for the head.
25:59That's it.
26:00Get out and just forget about everything that's there.
26:03Something you can get on with.
26:04Everybody wants that, don't they?
26:06It's all gold dust if you find it.
26:07As you can see, I haven't found that yet.
26:10Look at that lamb bloody time, I'll tell you that.
26:14I've called me out with women since I was 14.
26:17Come here, from the time you walked in there.
26:19Really?
26:19Walked in, we slagged each other straight away.
26:21Yeah, okay.
26:22There you go.
26:23That's nice.
26:24Yeah, yeah, yeah.
26:24That's a good connection.
26:26That's a dumb thing as well.
26:27Yeah, it is a dumb thing.
26:28And the fact that we're not taking each other too serious.
26:37As far as Jose is concerned, love is a five letter word.
26:42That starts with an S.
26:44I wanted to find the spark, you know?
26:47I wanted someone who's smart.
26:49I wanted someone who's positive.
26:50Someone who's aligned in terms of our values.
26:52Someone who's are reliable and someone who's kind.
26:55So S-P-A-R-K.
26:57But I think that's too much to ask.
26:59So I think I'm just looking for someone who's hot.
27:05Mister!
27:06Hey, how are you?
27:08Pleasure.
27:08Nice to meet you.
27:09Your name?
27:10Joseph, Joseph.
27:11Yeah, sweet Mary and Joseph.
27:12Nice to meet you.
27:13I feel like I'm meeting an old friend.
27:18Thank you, thank you.
27:18Hopefully I make it feel homey for you.
27:20Thank you, thank you.
27:21If you give me the right energy, I'll give it back to you.
27:24And so I think it's always important for a date.
27:27Oh, I'm the first one.
27:29Sit over here.
27:30You're first.
27:31Don't I stay there?
27:32Well, somebody's gonna get there.
27:33Somebody's gonna get there.
27:34Relax and enjoy.
27:35I'm quite cheeky.
27:37You know, I like to strike a balance between intelligent conversation and, you know, silly conversation.
27:44Nervous.
27:45Nervous?
27:46Ah, come on.
27:48I think I prefer to be first.
27:49Get my bearings first.
27:51Exactly.
27:52I'm getting positive vibes today.
27:54I'm rooting for you.
27:56Oh, my God.
27:57This is huge for me.
27:58This is a really big question.
28:00Oh, God.
28:00Because I did, like, an assignment and everything on this.
28:02Oh, no.
28:03Oh, now I'm worried.
28:05Okay.
28:05Yeah, you should be.
28:06Lions or Barry's.
28:07Barry's.
28:09Okay.
28:09Oh, no.
28:10Are you finished?
28:11Oh, no.
28:11Oh, no.
28:12That's it.
28:12Like, that's...
28:13No, like, we'll continue it.
28:14Just to be civil.
28:15But, like, it's just...
28:17Wow.
28:17No, I'm actually not that bad into it.
28:19It's just funny, like...
28:20Oh, lions.
28:21Lions.
28:22Yeah.
28:22Oh.
28:23Yeah.
28:24Now, can I give my reason?
28:25Okay.
28:26Can I explain...
28:27Oh, God.
28:28It seems like it would fit into you more than...
28:30I'm the one that was like, this is important, and now you're actually like...
28:33Oh, yeah.
28:33No, I'm big Barry.
28:34This is a curveball.
28:35Is this...
28:36I wasn't expecting it.
28:37Okay.
28:38We can move faster.
28:39My explanation is, that's what was at home, family person, comfortable memories,
28:45Lions tea.
28:46Okay.
28:46Taste, I haven't really drank Barry's tea, so when it comes to flavour, taste...
28:50I could say, put my hands up and say Barry's potentially could be better.
28:54That's why I'm a salesperson.
28:55I managed to work my...
28:56Yeah.
28:56Okay, yeah.
28:57I know your comments in there.
28:58Yeah.
28:59Okay.
29:03Hiya.
29:07James.
29:08Back for seconds.
29:10After working up an appetite, first time round.
29:14Yeah, it was really, really good.
29:16It was nice to see you.
29:17It all happens to go on a blind date.
29:19How are you, Mateo?
29:20Oh, I recognise you.
29:21Yes.
29:22What are you?
29:23Just call me Boomerang.
29:24I always come back.
29:26We got on really well.
29:28I don't know if there was a spark there.
29:31Oh, sorry.
29:32I've taken over.
29:33This is the homoflexibility.
29:34The homoflexibility.
29:35That's what happened last.
29:36They go for two minutes.
29:38So we'll share the seat now.
29:40Great.
29:40Oh my god, that's what we're doing tonight.
29:43I'd like to say, the first time was the starter.
29:46This is the main course.
29:47Ooh.
29:47The main course.
29:48Are you one of those who waits for dessert or no?
29:50Yeah, yeah.
29:51Hopefully, let's see what happens.
29:54I kind of go for a darker look at men.
29:56Dark features.
29:57Dark hair.
29:57Brown eyes.
29:58That kind of look.
29:59What I get at this stage.
30:02Alrighty.
30:02Hello.
30:03Hi.
30:03Nice to meet you.
30:04Hello.
30:06Nice to meet you.
30:06Joseph.
30:07How are you?
30:08James.
30:08Nice to meet you.
30:09Pleasure, pleasure.
30:10Nice to meet you, Joseph.
30:11I'm good.
30:12I'm good, yeah.
30:15This is just a ploy to get sympathy from my date.
30:19Oh, okay.
30:19Well, let's say yes then.
30:21This is an SRI.
30:25Oh, what is an SRI?
30:26A spaghetti-related incident.
30:27Oh, okay.
30:28Oh, wow.
30:29I was cooking and I flipped.
30:30Oh, okay.
30:31Yeah, yeah.
30:31Sorry.
30:33Yeah, nice to meet you.
30:33It was very nice to meet you too.
30:35Yeah.
30:35I'm pleasantly surprised.
30:39Happily.
30:39Did you expect someone else?
30:40I've been on more first dates than Mateo.
30:44You know?
30:45So I'm pleasantly surprised to be greeted by you.
30:49It never changes like you're always going to be nervous.
30:51But again, I project confidence, but it's like I'm dying inside.
30:55This guy is in the north.
30:56Is it?
30:56Do I sound like I'm in the north?
30:58No, you're from the west.
31:01You know.
31:02You actually know.
31:03Well done, you.
31:03I do have a soft spot for, you know, boy-next-door Irish types.
31:09You know, those who are not overly suave, not overly chiseled, but you know, good-looking,
31:15but they don't quite know it.
31:17Thanks for dropping by over in Dublin.
31:19I feel like you're really like, I came especially to see you.
31:23Oh, I feel so honored now.
31:24How far did you come?
31:25Um, half an hour.
31:27I'm joking.
31:28I'm only joking with you, by the way.
31:29You know, if I'm laughing and joking, then I'll make proper eye contact with them,
31:33because I just really want to be, like, looking at them.
31:36You're from the Philippines, you can tell from the accent.
31:37Really?
31:38Yeah.
31:39I honestly was going to say, I thought you were, like, from Tella.
31:42Oh, really?
31:42Yeah.
31:43Like, straight away.
31:45The worst of all I thought was, like, yeah, Tella.
31:47The Philippines, wow.
31:48I'm not sure if you're like, you know.
31:51Taking the fist with a bitch.
31:55Were you going to do, like, a camp counselor kind of thing?
31:57I think I was going to do something.
31:59I play music.
32:00Okay.
32:00Oh, very nice.
32:00So I was going to teach kids music.
32:02I think that's what it was.
32:03I think they wanted me to, like, send videos of me, like, playing the guitar and shit.
32:07And you were like, that's too crazy.
32:09I'll just go on a first date on TV instead.
32:17Do you play in, like, a band or is it just, like, yourself?
32:19I just play with myself, like, that sounds really weird.
32:27It's a bit dark room.
32:29Whole room.
32:29No one's ever seen you.
32:31No, I play music by myself, but I have a couple of mates that play,
32:35and every then I play with them.
32:36Growing up, always did dancing, singing, shows.
32:40And I think it's something that really, like, formed me as a person.
32:43But then I, like, ruined my vocal cords.
32:45You can even probably hear, like, my voice is usually gone.
32:48So today you're actually lucky it didn't go.
32:50I came back from America.
32:52Thank you so much.
32:53No worries.
32:53No worries.
32:54My problem is that sometimes it's kind of you're in the friend zone
32:56or I friend zoned people and that's kind of then they're going for me
32:59and it gets a bit complicated.
33:01Would your usual type be, what would it be?
33:04Would it be me?
33:05My type be?
33:08Girls that come on dates with their brothers.
33:11And you know what?
33:12I actually respect them because I've already met their brother now.
33:15Yeah.
33:16Yeah, what is your type gingers?
33:19I have dated gingers in the past.
33:21Have you, yeah?
33:21Yeah, yeah.
33:22Make sure they have three sisters and that's really important.
33:25Actually, you know what I did say?
33:27I did say I like pretty eyes and...
33:29Oh, wow.
33:31That's the first thing I know, in fairness, yeah, yeah.
33:33Oh, wow.
33:34They've done well, so...
33:35Yeah.
33:35Good.
33:36I'm glad.
33:37Do you date around them?
33:39I don't date around a lot.
33:40No.
33:40Do you go on dates often?
33:41No?
33:43I've been on a few in the last few months.
33:45I kind of get them in for you with the first date
33:47so I can get a kind of idea of what's going on.
33:49No way.
33:50You've been practicing together.
33:52No, not properly, not properly.
33:53I hate to be any of the girls you want on the table.
33:55He's actually been training to meet me.
34:00How's it going?
34:01It's going nice.
34:02He's a lovely man.
34:02Yeah, but just the way...
34:03He's a lovely man.
34:04Yeah, just the way you smiled already.
34:05Cool.
34:06Yeah, cool.
34:07Go, Mary.
34:07He makes me laugh.
34:08That was a Hail Mary, yeah?
34:12He's such a sweet guy.
34:13He's funny.
34:14He loves music.
34:15He loves the blues.
34:16I've always wanted to do a blues song.
34:18Never had the courage.
34:19He said he plays guitar, but he plays three chords.
34:22He said he would sing to me sometime.
34:23I don't know how he feels about me, but I like him.
34:25Yeah, he wouldn't be smiling if he doesn't like you.
34:28Everybody needs a bit of Mary in their life, yeah.
34:30Oh, I don't know.
34:30I don't know about that one.
34:31Let's hope they do.
34:32I don't know.
34:33I don't know about that one.
34:34I think, you know, so it was a good crack.
34:36I really enjoyed it, yeah.
34:38Nice male.
34:39Nice lady.
34:41Good heart, you can tell that, you know?
34:42He didn't recognize, you know?
34:43No, he didn't.
34:44And I actually told him.
34:45I had to tell him.
34:46No, but okay.
34:47But the reason I had to tell him was because he asked me what I did.
34:49Yeah, yeah.
34:49I said I do a bit of singing.
34:50Yeah.
34:51And he said, in the local pubs and bars.
34:53And I said...
34:54Karaoke!
34:57I didn't know what to say that.
34:59And then I was raised and I said, maybe I said it too early,
35:01because he literally went purple in the face.
35:04It's different where somebody really, really likes you.
35:06Yeah.
35:07From the TV, and then he wants that Mary from the TV.
35:11That's exactly what I wanted.
35:14And that's cool.
35:15Yes.
35:15It must be difficult for work to do, you know?
35:18Oh, boy.
35:19Man.
35:19Let me show you the real Mary.
35:22Say no more.
35:24It's been 10 years since this hair was messy, innit?
35:28It has to.
35:29It's been 10 years since I hit a headboard anyway.
35:32He made me smile.
35:33He made me feel comfortable.
35:36Not a lot of people can do that for me.
35:38He did.
35:39And I'm really grateful for that.
35:41I thought I was getting kicked out when he was bringing her to this place.
35:44Is that okay?
35:44Yeah, of course it's okay.
35:46Okay, thank you.
35:47What do we do?
35:49We can have a pint outside.
35:50We will, yeah.
35:51So we're going to see each other again anyway.
35:56That was a great day.
35:57I enjoyed it.
35:58Press that button there, baby.
36:00So you were all happy to see each other again?
36:01Yeah.
36:02Definitely.
36:04Yeah, he made me feel very comfortable and he made me laugh.
36:07And when you make someone laugh and genuinely make them laugh and know that they're on the same page as
36:13you are, you couldn't help but go out and have a drink with them again.
36:16Yeah, I wouldn't.
36:16Definitely.
36:16Definitely.
36:17Definitely.
36:18Nice guy.
36:19Same crack.
36:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.
36:21Same ordinary.
36:22Good lady.
36:22No, it's a lady.
36:23You're a good lady.
36:24Good lady.
36:25Good girl.
36:25All right, that's enough.
36:26Good lady.
36:26Good lady.
36:28There's something fucking wrong with you.
36:31I told you.
36:32When you get to know me, that's when the people run away.
36:34You just can't run away, can you?
36:35I will.
36:36I will eventually.
36:39Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door.
36:45Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door.
37:05Oh, I'm going to stay for a moment, be part of this chat and then I'm going to go.
37:08How are you getting on?
37:09Good.
37:09How are you getting on?
37:10Good.
37:10You're so chatting.
37:11You're so lovely.
37:11You didn't know that they were going to siblings, obviously, no?
37:13Oh, no.
37:14I had no clue.
37:14So, I'm going to go and leave you keep chatting.
37:17Or, quick fire, yes, no?
37:19I think so.
37:20Or, you think, potential.
37:22Maybe.
37:23Yes.
37:25I think she's lovely, yeah.
37:26Oh, I love it.
37:27That's what you want to hear.
37:28I'll leave you keep chatting.
37:29Nice one.
37:31She did orthodontist work and she was like, eat their class.
37:34No way.
37:34No way.
37:36She has nice things as well.
37:38It seems to be proper close as well.
37:40It's always a good sign when it comes to siblings, yeah.
37:43Be gentlemanly.
37:43Offer her some of your dessert.
37:46Be gentlemanly.
37:47No.
37:47I mean, stay gentlemanly.
37:49I would say the four of us go away after this.
37:51I think so.
37:52I think we'd go back.
37:53This is our biggest fear.
37:56I'll let you sit the page out.
37:58I am a pretty good questionnaire.
38:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
38:01The previews are interviewing me.
38:02It's kind of intimidating.
38:02Yeah.
38:03It's really intimidating.
38:05Yeah.
38:05I'm just kind of nervous that it didn't seem intimidating to you.
38:10I work as a data scientist, data analyst, so I'm like a geeky like that.
38:14Oh, you're intelligent.
38:15Look at you.
38:17I try, you know.
38:17Sometimes you have to do with the gifts that you're given, you know.
38:20Yeah.
38:22You're so modest about it as well.
38:24It's great.
38:26I'm turning 40 next year.
38:28I think I just want like a life partner almost, you know.
38:31AI is kind of taking over with it.
38:33Correct.
38:33And I think all of the big companies have, you know, have done like their flattening
38:38and like reorganization.
38:39Yeah.
38:39All the reorgs after reorgs.
38:41And this is the last one.
38:42Yeah.
38:43Here's another reorg.
38:44Last one for now.
38:45Yeah, yeah, yeah.
38:46Like my dating night.
38:50There's a story there.
38:51There's a story there.
38:52There's a story there.
38:53I think I've had about four relationships so far.
38:56The most recent one in Ireland, we were together with an Irish fella.
39:01We were together for 10 months.
39:02It was also nice.
39:03He was a lovely, lovely guy.
39:04But I felt that, I guess, we just weren't in the same frequency.
39:09And before that, I had some relationships back in the Philippines.
39:12But I feel like I was much younger and maybe in a very different headspace.
39:16Can I ask, are you out?
39:17Yeah.
39:18Are you out to people at home from here?
39:21Finally, yes.
39:22When I first arrived in 2019, it was just a big sigh of relief.
39:25When I first arrived, it was in July.
39:27And there were still some pride flags.
39:29You had your gay Taoiseach.
39:30I was like, nobody thought it was a big deal.
39:33And I was working for a tech company.
39:34And everyone was like, bring your whole self to work.
39:37Yeah, yeah, yeah.
39:38Is it something that resonates with you strongly?
39:41I work in it.
39:42Oh, really?
39:42You do?
39:43I work in tech as well.
39:44Oh, okay, fantastic.
39:45I work in a software company.
39:46So I have a day job, which is kind of like a customer success manager.
39:50Oh, that's very cool.
39:51But I have a gay job.
39:52Oh, wow.
39:53Which is a voluntary role, which is...
39:55Oh, you're drag queen?
39:56Yes, yeah.
39:57Who do you know that?
39:57You are?
39:58Yeah.
39:59Oh, my God.
40:00I'm not a fucking drag queen.
40:02I'm not sure.
40:02I can't tell.
40:03No, no, I'm not.
40:04My voluntary role in the work is diversity and inclusion.
40:07Oh, okay.
40:08It's an employee network group.
40:10Oh, okay.
40:10Which your company will have as well.
40:11I've had people come up and just say that something that we did resonated with them and
40:16helped them kind of move forward.
40:17And to me, that's fantastic to be able to do something like that for people.
40:21So the waiter came over and she was like, so quickfire, yes or no.
40:26He instantly went, yes.
40:27Oh, wow.
40:29So what did you say?
40:31We'll save it, we'll save it for later.
40:33I can't let that out now.
40:34My face goes really red.
40:36I do not have a poker face whatsoever.
40:38I told him I needed a dancer.
40:42Oh, no.
40:43I specifically said, no, as in like, a bad dancer, like, the worse the better.
40:48Like, I need bad dancing.
40:49Well, I can show you the dance moves.
40:51Fantastic.
40:51They're horrific.
40:52Brilliant.
40:53It's one of those ones where it's like choreographed to the point where it's like,
40:56uh, driving, shopping, trolley job.
40:59Light bulb.
41:00Bit of those.
41:01Oh, yeah.
41:02Oh, yeah.
41:03Chains, yeah.
41:03Yeah, there's a lot of that.
41:05But what is a dance move?
41:06Oh, it's like the knees are going, the hands are going crazy.
41:10Yeah.
41:11Oh, you piqued my interest.
41:15Where do you work remotely?
41:17Two days a week in the office is the mandate.
41:19Oh, so you're here in Dublin every two to three days a week?
41:22In Galway.
41:22In Galway?
41:23Yeah.
41:23Oh, okay.
41:24Cubby Dublin.
41:25Huh?
41:27It was so bad.
41:28I'm so sorry.
41:30Did you come to Dublin?
41:31Just go to Dublin.
41:32It's where everything happens.
41:33Yeah, me and AI.
41:35Oh, my God.
41:36Did I just go now?
41:39I think love is a bit of magic.
41:42In music terms, maybe it's when you, like, have a chord that locks so nicely.
41:45So I was in the choir and it was like, plung, plung, plung.
41:49You know, that extra sparkle there.
41:52Have you family here with you?
41:53No, it's just me.
41:55Oh.
41:55So, yeah, it's okay.
41:56Are you lonely?
41:57No, I'm okay.
41:58I do have a dog.
41:59So, yeah.
42:00Yeah.
42:01I have a beagle.
42:02She's great.
42:02Bailey.
42:04What's the beagle's name?
42:06Huh?
42:06Bailey.
42:07I can show you.
42:07I'm not really into hookups in general.
42:09I kind of turned off, you know.
42:12And true enough, you know, sometimes they just say, oh, Joe, so after this pint, you know,
42:16um, shall I see your, shall I see your dog tonight?
42:19You know, I mean, my dog Bailey.
42:22Clearly.
42:23Clearly.
42:24Yeah.
42:25But, but, and then after.
42:28Please have some of these chips.
42:29By the way, I'm probably not going to eat them.
42:30You're probably not going to eat them.
42:31No way.
42:32Why not?
42:33The company is just filling.
42:35You're a smooth docker, aren't you?
42:37I'm not.
42:37Do you write these things?
42:39Totally, I.
42:44You kind of sound like you're from Dublin.
42:45Do I?
42:46Yeah.
42:47I'm getting a lot of views for this recently.
42:48Are you selling you from Dublin?
42:49Yeah.
42:50Why do people call me, like, Yopro at all recently?
42:53I'm not.
42:53You are giving a little bit of Yopro.
42:55What?
42:58A little bit.
42:59Fuck's sake.
43:01Do you not think?
43:02No.
43:04Just, okay, fair enough.
43:06Okay.
43:06I'll take it as a compliment.
43:07Yeah.
43:08That's what I meant.
43:09Yeah, yeah, that's fair.
43:10I don't really believe it, like, love at first sight.
43:12I definitely believe in connection at first sight and appreciation and, you know, knowing
43:17that you want to explore something with somebody 100%.
43:21Nice watch us all.
43:23We weren't watching gold.
43:24Oh, you wear gold.
43:25Mm-hmm.
43:25Very important.
43:26I have, like, this gold chain I should have worn.
43:29A chain?
43:29I know, yeah.
43:30I'm really mashing the Yopro there.
43:33Gorillz is all.
43:33Is it like a gold Gorillz YouTube?
43:35We're gonna knuckle this.
43:41It's great when you meet someone that's cute.
43:43Mm.
43:44Actually fucking intelligent and can hold a conversation with you.
43:48But it doesn't happen that often.
43:50Mm.
43:50Do you know?
43:50Is it because you're in Roscommon or, in general?
43:53It's not.
43:54Genuine question.
43:56Straight away, the smiley face.
43:58Put me at ease.
44:00So am I going to Roscommon?
44:01You come to Roscommon.
44:02You don't mind me.
44:02She fucking love you.
44:04She'd be, like, cooking.
44:05She'd be like, put it on.
44:06Like, cabbage and bacon.
44:08Maybe not my usual type, to be honest.
44:11Maybe the more the evening progressed, I was like, yeah.
44:14This is actually, it's turning into my type.
44:17Where are you staying here in Dublin?
44:18I booked my hotel, and I got a response saying,
44:22they have a nightclub underneath.
44:25Copperface Jacks.
44:26Have you ever heard of Copperface Jacks?
44:27Oh, my God.
44:29Would you like to see each other again, romantically?
44:33The AI answer is just...
44:35Just plug everything into the AI.
44:37The answer is yes.
44:38From my AI, anyway.
44:40Yeah, my AI says yes as well.
44:44You mind the beer is after.
44:45Aw, look, that is the best way to do it, believe me.
44:48It's a smart, serious, tender soul.
44:53Yeah, and I think that...
44:54I think we're looking for the same things.
44:56Fantastic.
44:57Thank you very much.
45:00Gotta cook all spaghetti.
45:07I have never been to Copperface.
45:10Yeah.
45:11Well, you better tonight.
45:18Aw.
45:19Aw.
45:19Aw, yeah.
45:19She's too.
45:23Oh, so we have the gentleman here.
45:30Yes, we do.
45:31Lovely.

45:37and I've really found her attractive, so yeah.
45:38Good luck to see you guys. Nice to meet you. Have a good day. You too. Bye bye.
45:42Yeah, I think that we like got on really really well, and there was definitely like no awkward really moments.
45:48Jonathan, take a seat.
45:52Wait, you didn't get brought out for desserts though.
45:55Yeah, because we were actually, we were so...
45:56We were actually showing everyone inside. They were all like...
45:58We were so interested. They couldn't even break it up.
46:00They couldn't even break it up. Yeah.
46:01Oh no, see we were distracting everybody else inside.
46:03So they were like, oh no, we need to let them have their dinner.
