00:01You
00:08I'm placing the future of my life in this man's hands. I fell in love with how you make me
00:14feel
00:16However
00:26Modern day dating is a shambles good luck boys. It's scary. I've just not found anything a real substance
00:33You just look at picture swipe picture swipe. There's no romance honey. I'm home
00:38We've got to get cracking straight to it. Got babies two's ideal three maximum. I don't want an ugly car
00:46I have this thing where I follow my spleen. Oh, that's hot. They're just me slipping off each other and
00:51they're slipping and sliding
00:52Eat sleep date repeat all day. I really am falling in love with you. I just met my husband
01:01There isn't really an easy way to say this I'd have another connection
01:07It's all part of the game basically this is our triangles form being someone's second best
01:12That's not me suddenly to get this mic off me. This is a piece of shit
01:19You are about to enter the most intense part of the experiment
01:25You're a liar. You're a liar. You're a liar. You're a liar
01:31But no, no, it's bullshit if you want to fear and deny it I don't care
01:34I don't want to be a villain
01:36Do I think the relationship's gonna last? I don't know
01:41Will you say I do to the person you chose to get engaged to sight unseen you're more happily ever
01:47after or will you decide to walk away forever?
01:54You change your mind overnight. I got started
02:07In season one we wanted to find out if the UK could fall in love blind guess what they did
02:12now
02:13We're back with 30 new single hopefuls all with the same thing in common
02:17They want to make a lifelong commitment here
02:20They'll date each other without ever seeing each other and if they like it and want to see it then
02:25they got put a ring on it
02:26Only then will they get the chance to meet each other for the very first time
02:30So shall we find out if love is truly blind? I think we shall let's go meet our singles
02:44I'm obsessed
02:46I'm obsessed
02:47I was like wifey in here mate
02:49I'm a potential wifey
02:50Cheers to us for calling in love and finding our husband
02:54Yay!
03:00Hi ladies!
03:02Hi!
03:02Hi!
03:03Hi!
03:04Hello boys
03:04Hey!
03:10Hey!
03:11Hey!
03:11This is so exciting!
03:13How you all feeling? You alright?
03:15Yes!
03:16Ready and raring to go?
03:17Ready and raring to go?
03:17Ready to go
03:18Welcome to the experiment that seeks to answer one very simple question
03:23Is love blind?
03:24This is the place where you will choose someone to marry without actually ever seeing them
03:32So we know what you're here for but fill us in on what's got you to this point
03:37We just live in a generation where everything is so visual
03:41You might meet somebody and they think oh my gosh yeah you're beautiful but can I get better?
03:47Katisha now this experiment is about way more than looks right?
03:50Yes
03:51Why is that important to you?
03:52It's hard being judged by your looks like something I've been judged on in the past
03:56So taking that out of the picture you'll be able to gain a deeper connection and not be judged like
04:01from face value
04:02Demola what kind of woman are you hoping to leave this experiment with?
04:05I'm hoping to find my potential soul mate
04:07Someone that is family orientated that is just willing to have a laugh with me because I just want to
04:13be able to laugh for the rest of my life with my forever person
04:16It's just like you're right
04:20So who's ready to find out if love is truly blind?
04:27Go on boys
04:29Perfect that's the reaction we want because the pods are now open
04:37I'm trying to meet my right or die bro
04:39Let's get it
04:41Let's go find our husband
04:43I'm going to find your missus mate
04:44I'm going to find a wife boy
04:45Yay!
04:45Good luck
04:46Let's go
04:48Keeping everything crossed
04:49Enjoy
04:50Boys, boys, them and us
04:51We'd be too damn marvelous
04:53I'm a girls, boys, them and us
04:55We'd be too damn marvelous
04:58I am so excited
05:00I just really hope there's some good eggs behind that wall
05:03I absolutely feel ready to meet my husband
05:06Is it mate?
05:07Might be talking to my future wife right now
05:08Could be
05:15Knock knock
05:17Well hey
05:18You're meant to say who's there
05:20Ah, I've ruined it, haven't I?
05:22I give 200% to my work, my family, my friends
05:26I probably haven't give 200% to the love life
05:30What do you do Ashley?
05:31Er, I am cabin crew
05:33Cabin crew?
05:34Yeah
05:34Nice
05:35Does that mean I'll get discounted flights now, yeah?
05:38It does
05:39Why is that the first thing that people say though?
05:42That, Charlie, isn't it?
05:43You're gonna get that today, isn't you?
05:47My job actually does inhibit my relationships and being able to build a connection
05:53I've been single for about four and a half years
05:55And I just want someone who sees me for more than just cabin crew and not just 17 coffee
06:02I'm walking down the aisle of the aircraft doing my safety demo and my friends are like
06:06Well I'm walking down the aisle with my dad about to say my vows and live happily ever after
06:11So that needs to change right now
06:14Well you know the emergency exits from here if this goes tits up
06:19I feel like I'm quite lucky in life but I've been very unlucky in love
06:24Oh that's amazing, oh hello
06:26Hi
06:27What an interesting bunch that was
06:33Good luck boys, let's do it, good luck
06:35It's always been my sisters or my friends, always people have said to me
06:40Just believe in yourself more
06:42Hello
06:44Hello, how are you?
06:46Hi
06:48Go with your gut and trust yourself and you can do it
06:54And that's what I've told myself
07:00Well first off, what is your name?
07:02I'm Ashley
07:03Ashley, I'm Billy, nice to meet you Ashley
07:05Billy, where are you from?
07:06I'm from a place called Bangor in Northern Ireland
07:09Cool, amazing
07:10What about you?
07:10So near Surrey
07:12Surrey, oh nice
07:12If you know of it
07:13I'm actually in the army so I'm still used to travelling around
07:16I was in the army cadets
07:17You were in the army cadets?
07:19Yeah
07:19I love it
07:20Yeah seriously, I actually volunteered as an adult till I was about, well as long as I could really
07:24And then work got in the way, I had to quit
07:26But Compact Barbie was my nickname for a while in the cadets
07:30I like it, it sounds dead cute
07:31Because I was in the army cadets as well
07:33Oh my god, and so you've been in the military all your life?
07:36Yeah, so I've been in 16 years now
07:39Wow
07:39And I'm in the physical training corps
07:41Do you know what? I really respect the forces and I always go to Remembrance Sunday
07:45Wow
07:45For me, I take annual leave for it, it's such an important day for me
07:49That is massive to me
07:51Oh
07:51What do you do for work?
07:52So I am cabin crew
07:55Oh yeah
07:55Worked for a long haul airline for 11 years
07:57Love what I do, do get to travel a lot
08:00It's a really lonely job at times
08:02So yeah, ready to, if I met the right guy then yeah, who knows where life would take me
08:08I love your laugh by the way, you're making me laugh every time you laugh
08:12I've got a real cackle, I'm sorry
08:14Oh no, it's cute, I like it
08:16Have you got, are you close to your family?
08:18I love my family a bit, so my dad's over in England
08:20But when I need a dog sitter, he's first call
08:23Have you got a dog?
08:24Yeah, I've got a wee Cocker Spaniel called Ollie
08:26Ollie, oh I've got a Springer Pooh called Jet
08:29Have you?
08:30Yeah
08:30Oh, they get on like a house on fire then
08:32I love going for dog walks
08:34Yeah, me too
08:36So with past relationships, what's the longest and most recent you've had?
08:40I've been single for over four years now
08:43So I just had a relationship that really knocked me
08:47And totally knocked who I was
08:49Like, was really low in confidence and I just had to rebuild myself
08:54Yeah
08:54I really lost trust in men
08:55It takes time, doesn't it?
08:57I've probably looked for the wrong values in people to be honest
08:59Billy in the past and I kind of know who I want now
09:03And I want someone that's honest and respectful
09:07That sounds perfect
09:08Tell me about your relationships
09:11Yeah, I obviously go into more detail
09:13Yeah
09:14I was actually married once upon a time five years ago
09:16Oh, wow
09:18Like what happened?
09:19Was it just like
09:19We just fell out of love
09:21Yeah, we were both in the army, you see
09:23And it's kind of, you're like passing ships sometimes
09:26Does divorce scare you now that you've been there?
09:29Just, I just don't like the thought of it
09:30So I want to marry someone and I did marry at the time for the rest of my life
09:34Yeah
09:34I never, divorce never crossed my mind
09:37Right
09:37So when I do it again, that's going to be the last time
09:41I want us to light each other's worlds up
09:44That sounds perfect
09:45And I'm sitting here already smiling
09:48Nice to talk to you, Vinny
09:50Yeah, you too
09:50I look forward to our next date, hopefully, Ashley
09:52Will you listen to my heart
09:55I'll be your mind
09:56Wow
09:57We're apart
09:59When you're looking for us
10:00Wow
10:00Yeah, bro
10:01Wow
10:02No, this is a crazy place, crazy place with you
10:04Yeah, crazy days
10:05I'm definitely an old-fashioned romantic
10:07I was probably born in the wrong generation
10:09Or single in the wrong generation anyway
10:11I just want to find the love of my life
10:14Smile's all right, lads, smile's all right
10:16I married someone to spend the rest of my life with
10:20And the force was never on the cards
10:22I was so in love and it's what I want to find again
10:30Should I have my fringe like this or over?
10:32Whatever feels good to you
10:34But I'm asking your opinion
10:35I hate when people do that
10:37When people first meet me, it either goes one or two ways
10:41They ever think I'm like this little sweetheart but I wouldn't mouth
10:44Hello
10:44Hello, hello, hello, how are you?
10:46I'm so well, how are you?
10:48Or they think I'm a bit of a cow, like there's no in-between
10:53This is my first date, hopefully it's my last, no pressure
10:56I think I'm still single because I treat first dates like an interview
11:01Dogs or cats?
11:03Um, I've got a cat
11:05Do you not like cats?
11:07Like a cat, you have to really work for its love
11:09And I'm just really not here for that
11:12I would say that my type probably is somebody who can make me laugh
11:16Give me some dad jokes because I'm obsessed with dad jokes
11:19I was in a bank earlier and an old woman asked me to check her balance
11:22So I pushed her over
11:26Why did the skeleton cross the road?
11:28To get to the body shop
11:32I need somebody that's got his own home
11:34Do you live on your own?
11:35Yeah I do
11:36I just live at home with me and my mum
11:39I don't want to date someone who lives with their mum
11:41Be like, alright Sandra, can I just go to your son's bedroom?
11:44That's not a bit of me
11:47Why is this so hard?
11:50I'm very aware that I'm single because of myself
11:53I'm a very guarded person
11:55Because I'm petrified of giving myself to somebody
11:58And not being enough
12:00Let's go boys, let's go boys
12:02I'm a hopeless romantic
12:03So my story's already written
12:05And I hope it's in love is blind
12:07God that sounded so professional, didn't it?
12:09I was like, woo!
12:11Hello
12:11Hi
12:13What's your name?
12:14My name's Sophie
12:15Sophie, it is wonderful to meet you
12:17What's your name?
12:18My name's Kieran
12:19What do you do, Kieran?
12:21I am an entrepreneur in the gaming world
12:24So I'm actually a massive nerd under the surface
12:27What do you do?
12:28I am a commercial manager for a global renewables company
12:32Wow! Sustainability and all that
12:34I'd love to say that's why I do it
12:36But it actually pays really well
12:39So what about family?
12:41I'm one of five
12:42Wow
12:43Yeah
12:44One of five?
12:45And I'm the only girl
12:46I've got four brothers
12:47Four bros?
12:49Yeah
12:49Jesus, they're all going to beat me up
12:51If you break my heart, they'll be after you
12:53So just don't break my heart, babe
12:54You're all good
12:55I'll do my best
12:55You've got to give me the heart to break first
12:57Come on
12:58Yeah, first, first
13:00Have you ever been in love?
13:01No
13:02Have you?
13:03I was in a seven year relationship
13:04Which ended a year ago
13:06And I would say I was in love
13:07I don't think I've ever had
13:09Like a deep emotional connection though
13:12I feel like we're in a similar boat
13:14I had a five year relationship
13:15I outgrew him
13:17Like, he felt like my best friend and not my husband
13:21I want to be obsessed with someone
13:22Yeah, this is what I want
13:23I want to be like, I cannot wait to see that person
13:28Exactly
13:28Instead of, ugh, like I've got to go home to you
13:31Yeah, exactly
13:32I want someone who actually chose me because of my soul
13:34And not the way I look
13:35I like that
13:36What's your view, like, kids wise?
13:39You want kids?
13:39Yeah, I want kids
13:41Do you?
13:42Yeah
13:42Sweet
13:43Yeah, I want two
13:44Although I'm open to negotiation
13:46Two's ideal
13:47Three, maximum I don't want an ugly car
13:50Yeah
13:51What are your red flags?
13:52I feel like you're hiding something from me
13:54What is it?
13:55Can I throw that question back?
13:56I actually think I'm a well-rounded individual
13:58Like
13:59You sound it to be fair
14:00I'm not going to blow my own trumpet
14:01However
14:03I don't let people in so easily
14:05Okay
14:06Which is like the biggest factor why I'm doing this
14:08Because I have to
14:09Like
14:10You have to get vulnerable in order for this to work
14:13And
14:14Probably why I've never truly been in love
14:16I've never really shown everyone everything
14:19And been like, this is me
14:20Yeah
14:22Kieran, what else do you want to know?
14:23I want to know
14:24Can I see you again, please?
14:27I want to know
14:27Can I marry this girl?
14:29Get on one knee, Kieran
14:29We've done the experiment
14:30Right, I'm there
14:31I'm there
14:31I'm on one knee
14:32First date, I'm there
14:35You are amazing actually
14:37Thanks
14:38Tell me again
14:39I'm joking
14:40Sophie, you're amazing
14:43Hopefully see you very soon
14:44Yeah, hope
14:45Maybe tomorrow, Kieran
14:47Maybe tomorrow
14:50I think I just dated my husband
14:52Aww
14:54Good
14:55Yeah
14:55Lots to think about
14:57There's just something about Kieran
14:59Feels very easy with him
15:00I just met my husband
15:03I also think that my dad would like him
15:06I think my dad would look at him and be like
15:07Yeah, I see why you would have a connection with this guy
15:10I hope they have pretty engagement rings
15:14What am I now?
15:15I need some time to think
15:17I ain't got any time to think
15:17I've just got to fly into the next one
15:19I've been single for the past year
15:21And I've been quite active on dating apps
15:23And I've just not found anything of real substance
15:25There's no depth
15:26Good luck
15:29Oh
15:31Oh my gosh, I'm not ready
15:33Oh my gosh
15:34What are you not ready for?
15:35Oh my god, I'm so scared
15:36I hope to find love
15:38And I hope to find a wife
15:39By the end of this experiment
15:40You know, I'm dating to marry at the moment
15:41And I'm throwing myself head first into this experiment
15:44To see if I can find that
15:46Can I start with, who are you please?
15:49My name's Megan
15:49Megan, so lovely to meet you
15:51My name's Kieran
15:52Nice to meet you, Kieran
15:53What do you do?
15:54I am a professional dancer
15:56And a fitness instructor
15:57Are you?
15:58Yeah
15:58I worked on cruise ships for quite a few years
16:01So I was travelling all over the world doing that
16:03What sort of dance?
16:04Jazz is my forte, I would say
16:05But when I was younger
16:06I did freestyle disco dancing
16:08I love dancing
16:10Like...
16:10Do you?
16:11I've got hips that just don't lie
16:13Honestly
16:14Like...
16:15Liquid hips
16:16Liquid
16:17Oh, liquid
16:18Yeah
16:18Well, I'm ready for the dance off
16:20Any time
16:21That'll definitely happen
16:22Tell me about your family
16:24My...
16:24So I've got one older brother
16:26Absolute best friends
16:27Love them to pieces
16:28We stay in contact quite a lot
16:29To be honest, we stay in contact
16:30Because we play video games together
16:31If I'm perfectly honest
16:33Oh, gamer
16:41Yeah
17:03Um...
17:04It's not easy to keep a relationship
17:06I'm not gonna lie
17:07Yeah, it's just never really worked
17:09But yeah, I just want to meet someone
17:10I feel like so good on my own
17:12But I just know it'd be ten times better
17:14Yeah
17:15Like sharing those memories with someone else
17:16How about you?
17:18Um...
17:18So I've been single for a year
17:19I did the whole single thing
17:21You know, got out of my system
17:22And...
17:23Yeah, I just want to, like, share loads of experiences
17:25With my partner
17:26I totally agree with you
17:29What's, um...
17:30What's your, like, long-term family goals, Megan?
17:34Do you wanna...
17:35Do you wanna build a family?
17:36Like...
17:36Yeah, definitely one day I would love to have kids
17:40Yeah
17:40I think I would love to just have one
17:43And I'd also love to adopt
17:45Oh, wow
17:46It's just always something I'd love to do
17:48I'm open to the adoption thing
17:50I've not really put much thought into it, to be fair
17:51I rate that
17:52Well, it's nice to know that you're open to it, you know?
17:56Kieran is super lovely
17:58I think he's got, like, that little something about him
18:00See you
18:00See you later
18:03Oh, my gosh
18:04Oh, God, I'm sweating
18:05He had a little spark
18:06That instant click was there
18:09So, yeah, I'm excited about Kieran
18:11Love and feeling
18:13What just happened?
18:15I've been single for a year and a half now
18:17And I'm ready to get married
18:19I don't want any more boyfriends
18:20I want to be with someone for the rest of my life now
18:24Whew! How's it going?
18:26Too well
18:26Too well
18:27Love that
18:30How did it go?
18:31My last one, I, like, we were just chatting
18:34You know when you're just like, I forget where you are?
18:36Like, we were just chatting
18:37Oh, that's nice
18:38Yeah, like, he lives in London
18:39Like, we're the same age
18:40Yeah, do you think he's your vibe, though?
18:42Yeah, very
18:42Because you're both London
18:43I already know who he is
18:44Who do you think he is?
18:46Do you know who he is?
18:50So, are you still going to be very open, though?
18:51Or do you feel like you're quite like, he's my top guy?
18:53No, I do really like him
18:55Like, he's very, very similar to me
18:57Oh, my gosh! Where have you found your husband?
19:02It's just a weird feeling to know that someone that you potentially like is dating other people
19:08I don't want to share
19:09That's not me
19:12I never used to take astrology or spirituality that seriously
19:15And it changed my life, so I'm such an advocate for it now
19:18There's a billion people living on this earth
19:20Every time you piss on a tree, you become part of that tree
19:23I love that point of view
19:25We're all energy
19:27I'm doing Love is Blind because I want to find my life partner
19:30I want to find that, you know, my soulmate, my twin flame
19:33I want to have the best experience with her
19:35What's your name?
19:36My name is Patrick
19:37Patrick with the deep voice
19:39I would say I'm very unconventional
19:40I'm not the typical London boy
19:42I'm very spiritual and, yeah, just following my spiritual journey and my energy
19:46I'm so into, like, alignment and just spur of the moment
19:48Like, I've had this thing where I follow my spleen
19:51Oh, how interesting
19:53Okay
19:55It might sound a bit weird, but it's even more, like, potent than your gut
19:58And you follow it literally to the second
20:00As soon as you feel that feeling of something's gonna be good or bad, you just trust it
20:04Listening to my spleen is the best way for me to find the love of my life
20:08I just follow my spleen
20:09Have you ever heard of that before?
20:11No
20:11What about following your gut?
20:12Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah
20:13Well, I feel like I have a good, strong gut feeling
20:15I'm not sure about my spleen
20:16What's your gut feeling telling you now?
20:18I couldn't tell you that now
20:20Put me in your ocean
20:22Give me sweat
20:23Go away
20:24Being accepting and understanding is such a critical human trait
20:28I just hope to find that lovely lady on the other side and be able to understand me
20:34Good luck
20:37Have a good one, lads
20:38Have a good one
20:43Hello, hello
20:44Hello, hello

20:55What is you, Patrick?
20:57I'm a human design coach
20:59Oh
21:00What does that mean?
21:01So basically, I'm like a life coach but I use a spiritual system called human design
21:06Okay, this is a lot to write
21:09So sorry if I'm being quiet
21:10No, no, go for it
21:11Take your time
21:12Why marriage now?
21:13I want to get married now just because basically I've done everything I've wanted to do in life
21:17And I would love that someone to just, you know, blow my mind and make me feel something that I've
21:22never felt before
21:22And it's really hard to put it in language
21:25I would say it's more of a feeling
21:26Like it's, we call it a splenic awareness, like an intuition thing
21:30What's that?
21:31So basically, I trust my instinct in the moment
21:33And in the moment
21:35Splenic, I'm writing this one, splenic awareness
21:37I'm learning new words here
21:39Love that
21:39So what, you're trusting your gut instinct?
21:41Yeah, trusting my splenic instincts right in the moment
21:44And I think when it comes to it, it's something that I can't switch on or switch off
21:49I won't question it and I'll always follow it because it's never led me astray
21:52So, okay, I am a Christian
21:53Yeah, right, right
21:54Like, I do pray
21:55Yes
21:56I do fast
21:57Yeah
21:57I do read my Bible
21:58Right
21:59So how does that fit in, like, with your lifestyle?
22:03Because I get up in the morning, I, like, wanna pray
22:05Right
22:05I call my family, we pray together
22:07Right
22:08That's so beautiful when you say with your family you pray together
22:10That's amazing
22:11I was raised Christian, Catholic actually
22:13Okay
22:14Done, like, Holy Communion and Confirmation
22:16So, yeah, like, Christianity was actually a massive part of my life growing up
22:20I was always praying and, you know, just affirmations
22:24And really, like, talking to God in my head and things like that
22:27So, that's beautiful, I love that so much
22:30Aw, thank you, Patrick, you're so kind
22:32So are you, honestly, I really love your voice as well, you know, it's very
22:35Aw, come on!
22:37No, seriously, it's, like, it gives me such a safe space, I feel so comfortable
22:41Aw, I'd give you a hug if anybody was near me
22:44Hug through the screen
22:44I just hugged you
22:47Thank you so much, I appreciate that
22:49Patrick is sweet, Patrick is deep
22:52Wow
22:53Aw, he was nice
22:55You come in here with a set of qualities that you're looking for in a man
22:59And then in these short snippet of dates, you feel like, oh, this guy has these qualities
23:03However, though, is he interested about me?
23:06I feel like with Patrick, we're speaking like we're best friends already
23:08I can't wait to see what happens
23:16Do you feel like you're flirting?
23:18Not really
23:19And that's important to me?
23:20It is important
23:21Very important to me
23:22So, give me, like, a flirty line
23:24No, I can't
23:24You can't
23:25No, you can't
23:26Ideal blend is, like, a bit of flirting at the start
23:29And then get down to business for five, ten minutes
23:31Hi, are you okay?
23:32I'm good, Meg, how are you?
23:37My friends would say, I am a sweet person, but also really quirky and no common sense sometimes
23:43Well, Tom, what are you saying?
23:45Er, I don't know, Meg, what are you saying?
23:46Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
23:49You've got something about ya, something I can't forget
23:53Growing up, as an Indian girl, there was a lot of pressure
23:57So, I've only actually dated Indian boys
24:01I always wanted an Indian Zac Efron.
24:04Pretty boy, the wispy hair.
24:06That was like my crush growing up.
24:08Yes, yes.
24:09Hello.
24:10I think maybe that's why I'm still single today
24:12because it hasn't worked.
24:14So me embracing the experiment is me being open now.
24:17Where are you from?
24:18I'm from Buckinghamshire.
24:20Buckinghamshire.
24:20It's nothing to do with Buckingham Palace.
24:23I knew you were posh.
24:25I think everyone's posh for me, to be honest.
24:28I'm dating guys.
24:30I don't think I may have dated on the outside world.
24:32My name's Chris.
24:33What's yours?
24:34I'm Surveyor.
24:35I've never heard that name before in my life.
24:37I've actually Googled my name before.
24:39I do think I'm one of the only ones.
24:40I didn't Google myself in a weird way.
24:42I just wanted to see, like...
24:44It's fine.
24:44You've said it now.
24:45It's too late.
24:46Who's going to be that forever partner?
24:48And it could be somebody completely different
24:49who I've never gone for.
24:50Let's say you're bringing all the finances to the table.
24:53What do you think your future wife would bring?
24:55If I'm at work, you're doing everything else,
24:58making sure dinner's ready.
24:59I don't get home till, like, half nine.
25:02I go to bed at half nine.
25:07That's not my husband.
25:14Good luck, boys.
25:16I do feel my husband's here.
25:18I have this gut feeling,
25:19and I have those little butterflies.
25:22All right, love.
25:22I definitely didn't trip over the threshold then.
25:25Did you actually just trip over?
25:26I kicked it a little bit, yeah.
25:28How are you?
25:29I'm good, thank you.
25:30I'm good.
25:30What's your name?
25:31My name's Cal.
25:32What's your name?
25:33Cal.
25:33My name is Sarova.
25:35Sarova.
25:35Nice to meet you, Sarova.
25:36That's a lovely name, Matt.
25:39Whereabouts do you live?
25:40I'm from Wigan.
25:41Where are you from?
25:42I'm from just outside of London.
25:43Should have guessed with the accent to this.
25:45Love a little posh accent, that, you know.
25:47Oh, thank you.
25:48How old are you, Sarova?
25:49Oh, I haven't even told you.
25:51I'm 29.
25:52I'm just chatting away, aren't we?
25:53Literally.
25:53How old are you, Cal?
25:55I'm 32.
25:5632.
25:56Okay, awesome.
25:57Is that all right?
25:58Is that in the bracket, that?
25:59Is that all right?
26:00Has that made the cut?
26:01Have I made the cut, though?
26:03Yeah, yeah.
26:04You've definitely made the cut.
26:05Good, good.
26:06Is that a little tick?
26:06Yeah, yeah.
26:07That's not a deal-breaker, the age.
26:09Don't worry.
26:09What would you do for a living?
26:10So I'm co-owner of a medical company.
26:13That's class.
26:14Thanks.
26:14What do you do?
26:15I'm a co-owner of a gym.
26:16Oh, awesome.
26:18That's honestly so cool, because I'm a gym person,
26:21so my morning routine is hit class at the gym, sauna and steam.
26:25I'm going to put a big tick in my book on that.
26:27Yeah.
26:27In terms of, like, past relationships, do you mind if we touch upon that?
26:32Not at all.
26:32I've been single for a year and a few months.
26:35Yep.
26:35A date with a girl in Dubai was, like, amazing.
26:38Like, I thought, like, this could be the one kind of thing.
26:40A few months, then I asked her to be with my girlfriend.
26:42And then, like, after that, it shortly fell apart.
26:44Okay.
26:44And then since then, I've just learned, like, if something ain't right,
26:47like, just don't waste any time.
26:49Yeah.
26:49Like, life's too short.
26:52The other thing I learned from that relationship was,
26:53the next time I get with someone, I want it to be my wife.
26:55Like, I'm not messing about anymore.
26:57Yeah.
26:57So, like, this is, like, the perfect opportunity for me to just find that person.
27:01Dating with intention.
27:02Yeah.
27:03And do you have any siblings?
27:05Two older brothers, two younger sisters.
27:07They're married with kids, and it doesn't make me rush or anything,
27:09but just seeing how happy it makes them, like, I want that for myself.
27:13That's literally the boat I'm in.
27:15Yeah.
27:16What kind of wife do you envision you would be?
27:19Like, what's, like, have you thought about that?
27:21I have thought about that.
27:22So, obviously, I work hard, I've studied hard, et cetera.
27:26I'd want to do it where I can still be present for my children.
27:29Yeah.
27:30I am quite old school and want to be the protective provider,
27:32but I also see the appeal of having someone like you
27:35who almost should be, like, a force to be reckoned with,
27:38like, together, me and you, if you're like...
27:39Yes.
27:40That is just goals, 100%.
27:42That is a couple goals right there.
27:44Yeah.
27:44Well, I've got a question for you.
27:45Would you want to see me again after this?
27:47I've had a great chat, and I think we're so similar
27:49in terms of our outlook on life and how we actually live at the moment.
27:53I think we're very similar, you know.
27:55Oh, well, this might be exciting for our next day.
27:57We'll have more to talk about.
27:58I've got a next day already, have I?
27:59Oh, if you want the next day.
28:02Definitely.
28:02Of course I do.
28:03I'm not daft, am I?
28:06Absolute pleasure, darling.
28:07Enjoy the rest of your day.
28:08Bye-bye.
28:08Good night.
28:09Good night and goodbye.
28:10It will be good night soon.
28:13Oh, dear.
28:15How was it?
28:16That's a 10, that one.
28:1710?
28:17I wrote 10 in the book, though, mate.
28:19Jesus.
28:20It's a good one, that.
28:21Oh, my God, that was amazing.
28:23I think with me, like, I've got the gym, the nice things.
28:26People might misjudge that and think he's arrogant gym head
28:29or maybe he doesn't read, he's not intelligent,
28:30but it couldn't be further from the truth.
28:32I like reading.
28:33I like playing chess.
28:34I can cook.
28:34I can clean.
28:35I can iron.
28:36Very close to my mum.
28:37And because my mum lives next door to my grandma,
28:40I'm very close to my grandma as well.
28:41So you would say I'm a bit of a mummy's boy,
28:43but that's fine by me.
28:44It's some more good dates, mate.
28:46Yeah, I know.
28:46I've had quite a few short-term relationships.
28:48And to be honest, I'm not sure whether I've fully,
28:50truly been in love yet.
28:52I feel like if I was to fall in love,
28:53I feel like I would know it.
28:54I feel like true love would hit you like a train.
28:56You're almost like under some sort of spell.
28:58And that's what I'm looking for.
29:02All right, lads.
29:03Day one in the books.
29:04Let's go.
29:23Oh, strawberries.
29:25Oh, this is nice.
29:28Oh, a little mimosa, is it?
29:30Shall we cheers to you for more good dates?
29:32Yeah.
29:33Yeah.
29:38If a date goes well,
29:39I'm going to handstand walk out of there
29:41and up that red carpet.
29:44Billy is a charming Irishman.
29:48Hello, it's Billy.
29:50Hi, Billy.
29:51It's Ashley.
29:51Ash, how are you?
29:54There's common ground with Billy
29:56and something feels special.
29:58Billy, I love that you call me Ash.
30:00Oh, I'm glad it's gone down well then.
30:02Geez, I don't know.
30:03I got excited to hear your cheery voice.
30:05I was like, I'm buzzing now.
30:06Oh.
30:08But there's still things I want to get to know.
30:09Then we can, yeah, really move forward.
30:14I was thinking about you in bed last night.
30:16I was thinking I just want to know a bit more about...
30:18I just want to try and picture you.
30:19Yeah, I like it.
30:20So, have you got tattoos?
30:22So, on the inside of my arm,
30:24it's a wee bit cheesy, but I like it.
30:26Oh, go on.
30:26I've got sheet music
30:28and it's to the line of the Michael Buble song
30:30I Just Haven't Met You Yet.
30:33Oh, my God!
30:34So, underneath it says,
30:35when words fail, music speaks.
30:37So, the idea is whenever I do eventually meet her,
30:40her name will hopefully go underneath.
30:42Really?
30:43Yeah, so then I have met her yet.
30:45That's why I'm here.
30:45I want to kind of have that permanent feature on me
30:49because whenever I do have it on, it's not changing.
30:51I don't want it to come off.
30:53I don't want it to come off.
30:55Oh, I had a question.
30:57How important is intimacy?
30:59So, for me, it's probably one of the most important things
31:03that needs to kind of be there.
31:05Like, for me, it's like, I want to be with you
31:07and want to rip your clothes off all the time.
31:11Whenever I tuck in the bed,
31:13I like being an old spoon.
31:14Yeah.
31:15In the morning, I like waking up and turning into you
31:18and having you as the little spoon then.
31:20And then you can pull me in close?
31:22I can pull you in close and then, yeah,
31:24possibly on a date night.
31:26Possibly on Saturday date night?
31:27Yeah.
31:30I may have got a little outfit ready.
31:32I was going to ask you,
31:33would you come to a country concert with me?
31:34So, I'd love to do that with you.
31:35We get our cowboy boots on.
31:36I've not got a pair of cowboy boots.
31:38Have you?
31:40Yes, I do.
31:41So, I had a sergeant's mess do last month.
31:44Okay.
31:44And it was cowboy-themed.
31:45Oh.
31:46I'm usually the only single one there.
31:47I would love to have you by my side in a sexy dress
31:51be a cowboy-girl boots on.
31:52Are you going to lasso me into the dance floor with you?
31:54Oh, 100%.
31:54Would you come up with me?
31:55I'd want to be there to be like,
31:57that's my guy.
31:58That's my husband.
31:59Like, look at him and what he's achieved
32:02and where we are.
32:03Like, yes.
32:04And the fact that I love the military as well,
32:06it's just a win-win.
32:07I want to help polish your boot.
32:15I feel we've got chemistry from the off,
32:18and I'm just falling for day by day.
32:21Ooh, ooh, ooh.
32:23You lay into the rhythm of my soul.
32:27But I don't want to jump the gun too quickly
32:29because I need to make sure this is 100% right.
32:32I want my next marriage to last forever.
32:35I do want to be 100% sure
32:36before I actually make any kind of leap.
32:43How was it?
32:44Oh, God.
32:46Oh, my head's just everywhere, isn't it?
32:48But I can't believe I've got chemistry
32:50with someone sexually for a wall.
32:52What is that?
32:55I'm glad I've seen who I've seen today.
32:57I'm glad it's mutual.
32:58Yeah.
32:58You know, you don't ever know.
32:59You never know.
33:00You?
33:01Like, I've got very good vibes from Kieran.
33:04But more to see, more to hear.
33:05More to see, more to hear, more to learn.
33:09Big one for me, this.
33:11Come on.
33:13Navigating the connections is very stressful
33:16because I'm having to think about things
33:18that I've probably never thought about
33:20and it's mind-boggling.
33:22That's what it is.
33:23It's mind-boggling.
33:28In the first date with Sophie,
33:30she was the standout, just ticks all the boxes.
33:34With Megan, I think we're still figuring each other out
33:37a little bit, but everything I've got so far
33:40has been amazing.
33:42Hello.
33:43Hi, Kieran.
33:44Which is why I'm just trying to stay open-minded,
33:48trust the process, and, you know, see where I end up.
33:52How could I give you butterflies?
33:55Like, what would make you go,
33:56oh, my God, bloody love him.
33:58Gives me butterflies.
34:00For me, love an ear kiss.
34:02Yeah, I'm the same.
34:02Like, I feel like anywhere in, like, that region,
34:04like, neck, ear, area.
34:07It just gets you going.
34:08It's like, oh, like, it goes through your body.
34:10Yeah.
34:10I feel like really good eye contact.
34:12Yeah, like, oh.
34:13That is up there for me.
34:14Is it?
34:14It's, like, biggest turn on.
34:17Like, before and during, like, for sure,
34:19like, that's, that's 100%.
34:22No words need to be exchanged.
34:24I'm giving you them now.
34:25Yes, I'm not giving you them now.
34:29I'm hoping you're getting the message.
34:31I am.
34:31I'm feeling, I'm feeling a little bit hot here, actually.
34:33Are you?
34:34I might, yeah, I might have to have a little walk around
34:36and shake this off.
34:36Yeah, have a little stroll.
34:37Walk it off.
34:39Are you a cuddler?
34:41Yes, I do love cuddling.
34:42I'm a very hot person.
34:44Okay.
34:44So, if it's summer and we're warm,
34:47we're going to be sticking to each other.
34:48I can get over it.
34:49Like, I can't lie, I'm quite a sweaty person.
34:51Yeah, so am I.
34:52This is great.
34:53So, we'll just be slipping off each other
34:56and we're sweating everywhere.
34:58Because that's us.
35:00Because that's us.
35:00Slipping all over each other.
35:01Right, stop it.
35:02Slipping and sliding.
35:03Stop it.
35:03Stop it.
35:04Stop it.
35:07Okay, that's enough, I think, for today.
35:09That's enough, that's enough for today.
35:10That's enough for today.
35:11I'm, I'm very satisfied.
35:13Okay, that's good.
35:14Very satisfied.
35:17I was going to write slippery next to your name.
35:23The date with Megan was amazing.
35:25I'm very pleasantly surprised.
35:28Physical intimacy is, like, a huge part of a relationship,
35:31in my opinion.
35:32And with Megan, I really could feel
35:35a lot of sexual tension through, through the wall,
35:38which is, which is weird.
35:44But I have a strong connection with Sophie.
35:47Hello?
35:47Hello?
35:48Sophie!
35:49Kevin!
35:51There is, uh, just a real attraction.
35:54One question I wanted to ask you was,
35:55how would I give you butterflies?
35:58Passion, I'd say.
35:59You're going to have to go more than that.
36:01I'm sorry, I'm not accepting that.
36:02Why?
36:03I need more.
36:04Why do you need more?
36:05Like, how am I showing that?
36:07Um, well, you can start with kissing me,
36:10and then everything else will lead to where it's supposed to.
36:15You do not want to give detail, do you?
36:18I just feel like if you get in one knee,
36:21I don't think you'll be disappointed, babe.
36:23Like, you're good on, like, this aspect.
36:26Yeah.
36:27It's a big one for me.
36:28I feel like we're sorted, then.
36:31We're fine, aren't we?
36:31What more do you need to know, Kieran?
36:34Sorted.
36:35Shall we shake hands?
36:37Um, shaking hands is very formal.
36:40Right, that felt like quite a business deal, that one.
36:45Shut up, Kieran, you'll be fine.
36:48Shake my hand and just be happy.
36:51Yeah, pretty much.
36:53Deal.
36:54Business done.
36:57One of my biggest fears is falling in love,
37:01letting someone see every element of you
37:04and ultimately deciding that that's not enough.
37:06See you later.
37:07Bye.
37:08I don't deal with rejection very well.
37:10I also don't put myself in positions to be rejected.
37:14And I don't know if there's anyone truly in my life
37:16apart from my dad.
37:17I've ever let see all of me.
37:19I've always held something back
37:20because I'm so scared of being heartbroken
37:23that I self-sabotage.
37:25So, if I don't show them all of me,
37:28then it's OK if I'm not enough for them
37:29because joke's on them.
37:31They didn't see this side of me.
37:33I've had Megan, Sophie, like...
37:36Back and forth, back and forth.
37:37But you've got to start making...
37:39You've got to...
37:39I can't...
37:40Do you know what I mean?
37:41I've got to start doing something.
37:50Oh, good luck, babe.
37:51Thank you so much.
37:55With Sarova, it's definitely bubbling.
37:57Thinking about her a lot.
37:58Can't wait to see her.
37:58And I feel like when you've got that exciting feeling
38:00in your stomach about seeing someone,
38:01it is a good sign that you do like them.
38:03There is possibly something more, though.
38:05Hello, hello.
38:05Oh, hi, how are you today?
38:08She just seems like a really nice, kind, sweet person,
38:11and that's, like, top traits that I look for in a girl.
38:14Are you good with change?
38:16Change does make me uncomfortable.
38:18Mm-hmm.
38:18And I've always actually struggled a bit with change.
38:21Yeah.
38:21I'm quite routine, so I would say I used to be the same,
38:26but I feel like I'm good with stress anyway,
38:27so, like, if unexpected situations come up,
38:29I'm okay with handling them.
38:31That's good, whereas I get a bit heightened
38:33during stressful situations.
38:34I'll calm you down, don't worry.
38:37That may be needed.
38:39Of course.
38:40Like, at points in my life,
38:41I've nearly lost, like, both my brothers.
38:43Oh, my God.
38:44My oldest brother, he was in the Royal Marines.
38:46He served in Afghanistan.
38:47Wow.
38:48And I think I was, like, 14 at the time.
38:50One day, we just got a phone call saying he'd been shot.
38:53Obviously, when you first hear that,
38:54you think the worst and think something, like,
38:57thinking, how bad is it?
38:58Is he dead?
38:59But luckily, he was okay.
39:02Took a bullet.
39:03So lucky, like, a few inches either way.
39:05Could have probably killed him.
39:06And then my other brother, he's been to rehab.
39:09Okay.
39:10And he had a drinking substance addiction
39:12for, like, most of his adult life.
39:15That's awful to hear.
39:16And could never hold a job down.
39:18It was when I was in Dubai,
39:20but somehow, someway, checked himself into rehab,
39:22got himself clean, and, like,
39:24within, like, 12 months of coming out of there,
39:27he phoned his wife and got married,
39:29and has completely turned his life around,
39:30and now he's, like, two years sober.
39:32Wow.
39:33Good.
39:33Honestly, that's amazing on him.
39:35I know.
39:36It's just...
39:36That's incredible.
39:37It's honest.
39:38I genuinely didn't think it would ever happen,
39:40just because of the things he was doing.
39:41It's like...
39:42Yeah, because the track he was on,
39:43the journey, the path he was on.
39:45Is it, like, a two-far gone?
39:46Would have never listened to reason?
39:48And, like, I've never had anything like that.
39:49I feel like I'm lucky, like...
39:51Yeah.
39:51Because seeing the things they've gone through
39:52and then come out the other side,
39:54and they're still, like...
39:55They're still themselves.
39:56They've still got through it.
39:57They're still very much themselves.
39:58It's not changed them at all.
40:00They're still the same people.
40:00Oh, that's amazing.
40:02Thank you for sharing, Dave.
40:03No, it's all right.
40:03I wanted to.
40:04Just being open, talking so much,
40:07I realise how much I'm resonating
40:09and being drawn into certain things you're saying
40:11and building on what we're building here is amazing.
40:15Yeah, good and glad that it's the same for both of us.
40:18I've been praying for a risk worth taking.
40:24Cal is a super sweet, emotional person.
40:27I feel that's very rare to find in a guy.
40:33There's no sort of topics that have been off-limits.
40:36He's been vulnerable as well, which is really sweet.
40:38And to hear a guy actually get emotional about his family,
40:42that was beautiful.
40:46It's almost like you just wanted to go through the wall
40:48and give him a hug.
40:49So it's really, he's a really sweet guy.
40:51On the other side, you'll be mine.
41:04Do you guys want a hot drink?
41:05Ashley's making some.
41:06I'm brewing teas.
41:08Oh, do you know what?
41:09Chocolate.
41:09Such an air hostess.
41:10Such an air hostess.
41:12Tea or coffee.
41:12Hot honey lemon.
41:15Anything from the bar.
41:17I really want to see Ashley.
41:19I like Ashley.
41:19It's good girls.
41:20Yeah.
41:20No, it's definitely, I'm so confident as well.
41:22Ashley has been one of my strongest connections.
41:25But there's a few things going around in my head
41:26and there's a few things I still need to consider.
41:29I want to kind of dig a wee bit deeper with her
41:31and see how that goes.
41:35Things are going really well with Billy and I.
41:38You're never, never alone.
41:40When I'm with Billy on dates, I can picture us together.
41:45Hello.
41:45Hi, Billy.
41:47Ashley, how are you?
41:49Oh, glad to be talking to you again.
41:50Yeah, and you too.
41:51I have developed a deep connection,
41:54something I've not experienced before in my life.
41:58You kind of touched on, like,
41:59are you a big Irish family?
42:01What's the set-up look like at home?
42:02Are you on your own?
42:03My family mean everything to me.
42:05My dad was my first role model I've ever looked up to
42:08and he will forever be my...
42:12Why do you get emotional with the silliest little things?
42:15Oh, Billy.
42:16It's OK.
42:17You, like, let it out.
42:19You know when you say stuff out loud,
42:21but then whenever it comes out,
42:22it's, oh, man.
42:26Over the last couple of years,
42:27he's had, like, a few injuries and stuff
42:28and he was in a real bad way.
42:31It's been difficult for him, that man,
42:33the whole family, but he's on the mend now.
42:35But I don't know, whenever you're a kid, he's Superman.
42:38Oh.
42:41Yeah.
42:41I'm giving you a big hug, Billy, right now.
42:43Oh, thank you.
42:43I'm passing you a tissue, giving you a big hug and a kiss.
42:46My family mean everything to me.
42:48Oh.
42:48Right, I want to know more about you
42:50before I start sobbing even more.
42:51Oh, my God, no, I love it.
42:53Back on track.
42:54Tell me about your family.
42:56Mum and Dad, yeah, sort of split up
42:58when I was sort of 16-ish
43:00and I really, yeah,
43:03saw their relationship break down.
43:06Yeah.
43:06Really quickly, I felt, like, as the eldest child,
43:10that I had to become the provider.
43:13Yeah.
43:14I kind of took on the leader role,
43:16like, the supporter role for my mum and sisters
43:18and I've kind of got on the bills really quickly
43:21at a young age of 16, like, starting to pay for rent.
43:25Yeah, it was a lot.
43:26So I really want someone who brings and looks after me
43:30because I've always looked after others.
43:33All I want is to be loved for who I am
43:36and to find real happiness in this relationship.
43:40I found it in myself and I found it in my career,
43:43but I've not found happiness, real happiness, Billy,
43:46if I'm being honest, in an intimate partner.
43:48I could relate on every level.
43:51I haven't really asked you much about your job ever, really.
43:53What led you to become in Cabin Crew?
43:56So I've done it for nine, ten, about 11 years,
44:00worked for two different companies.
44:01Would you ever, like, have you ever considered any of our jobs
44:04or would you consider?
44:06Yeah, I have, yeah.
44:07I think at the moment, Crew is right for me
44:09because I'm single and I haven't got any family to worry about
44:12and I can gel.
44:15Ashley is amazing.
44:17When I go into a room with her,
44:19we connect on multiple levels.
44:21Bye, Billy. See you soon.
44:24And then when we're talking about the future,
44:26it just keeps lingering in my mind that she's Cabin Crew.
44:31It does make me a little bit nervous.
44:33I have dated Cabin Crew in the past
44:35and it's not worked out.
44:38Our jobs just don't align.
44:40She's going to be away for long periods of time.
44:43I don't want a marriage where we live in separate lives.
44:46It's been fun today.
44:47Good. It's been fun, fun, fun.
44:49I'm glad.
44:50Go on, Billy.
44:57We've had, like, a lot of nice chats
45:02and you're having some really nice ones
45:03and there's some, like, you don't want it to end.
45:05Right, yeah.
45:05That's the difference between, like,
45:07it's nice or I'm staying in here for another three hours.
45:09That is a good sign.
45:11That's what you want.
45:11That's the spleen right there.
45:13Yeah.
45:16Patrick is mad cool.
45:18Yeah.
45:19Patrick is a vibe.
45:20That's good.
45:21Patrick is a vibe.
45:26My mum thinks my love life is terrible.
45:29That's why I'm here.
45:31Constantly performing at weddings is a fun experience.
45:34However, when I do sing at the ceremonies,
45:37it is a little bit bittersweet.
45:39Good luck.
45:41You're watching these brides walk down the aisle
45:43and then you're watching the grooms look at their bride
45:45with so much love
45:45and it's like, oh, my gosh, when is that going to be me?
45:48And I'm singing, like, what is it going to be?
45:52Hi.
45:53Hello.
45:55At the back of my head, when is it going to be me?
45:57You know, but hopefully soon.
45:59Patrick.
46:00Yes, Patrick.
46:01Wait, is this Anu?
46:01Yeah, it better be.
46:04How are you?
46:05I'm good.
46:05How are you?
46:07Not too bad, thank you.
46:08Shall we get into the nitty-gritty?
46:09Paint me a picture of your childhood.
46:11Let me take you way back to little old Patrick,
46:16my Jamaican mum, my Nigerian dad.
46:18Wow, that's mad because Nigerians are strict
46:21and, like, I think Jamaicans are a bit more freer.
46:24Wow.
46:25You've literally...
46:26You've painted my entire childhood together.
46:29Are you joking?
46:30You've done it.
46:30There's no point.
46:30That's a joke.
46:31No, but obviously, because I'm obviously Nigerian.
46:34Yeah, yeah.
46:34Oh, did I tell you that?
46:35Actually, you didn't, but I kind of gathered, actually.
46:38Oh, how?
46:39West African.
46:40How did you gather?
46:41Your name, but I didn't know which country.
46:43You give me that vibe, that flair, that flavour.
46:45That's not, like...
46:46That Nigerian flavour.
46:47Come on, come on.
46:49You know how it is.
46:52Anyway, so come on.
46:53Childhood, childhood.
46:53Yeah, paint me a picture of your childhood.
46:54So, basically, my dad, as you know,
46:57Nigerians are very strict.
46:59Was he Christian, then?
47:00Yeah, he was Christian.
47:01He was Christian.
47:01And what was your mum?
47:03I mean, she's Christian as well,
47:04but, like you mentioned,
47:06she's completely open to anything.
47:07She's not strict whatsoever.
47:09So, are you happy that you had that upbringing,
47:11or not really?
47:12Absolutely.
47:12I wouldn't change it, you know?
47:13I would not change a thing,
47:14because this basically led me to where I am right now,
47:17you know?
47:18I don't know if I've told you...
47:19Yeah, my mum was an immigrant.
47:20Yeah.
47:20And she came from Nigeria with nothing.
47:23Uh, and then now she, like, owns a house
47:25and works for the government.
47:27Incredible.
47:27So beautiful.
47:28Do you know what I mean?
47:28And, like, um...
47:29And she's got three daughters that are educated
47:31and have businesses earning really well.
47:33Oh, what a blessing.
47:34And have kids.
47:35Do you get what I mean?
47:36Fun fact for you, though.
47:37I did a year in Nigeria, so...
47:39What age?
47:40I think I was 12, so year seven.
47:43My mum obviously went to school in Nigeria.
47:44She said, oh, it was hard.
47:46Yeah.
47:46They had to make their own beds,
47:47they had to fetch their own water.
47:48100%, you know how it is?
47:49I did that.
47:50Yeah, but they had to fetch their own, like, shower water
47:52from, like, the village and stuff.
47:53I did that, too.
47:54Oh, is it?
47:58Honestly, you're so much fun.
47:59You've given me so much energy.
48:00You are someone who is very special.
48:02Indeed, 100%, I can tell.
48:03Oh, that's Patrick.
48:05Are you getting on one knee?
48:07I might do, you know?
48:10Listen, no matter what, for me,
48:11I'm going to definitely go on my feeling
48:13for any situation, so...
48:15Aw.
48:15I will always trust my spleen, you know,
48:17I'm going to go with my feeling.
48:17Yeah, your splendid, what was it?
48:19Splendic awareness, yeah.
48:20You're the only one that seems to be, like,
48:22quite spiritual.
48:23I believe in a lot of things, honestly.
48:25I believe in love.
48:26How about that?
48:27Okay, yeah.
48:28Well, I hope so.
48:30That's why we're here, show.
48:33Anu, wow.
48:34She's very abundant.
48:35She is actually super open-minded
48:37and she's super spiritual.
48:39Aw, that was really nice.
48:41Anu, you're amazing.
48:43Aw.
48:44She gives me such fiery energy.
48:47There's definitely an emotional connection there, for sure.
48:51That is definitely something that is new to me
48:54and I definitely want to explore
48:55how that makes me feel long-term.
48:57Yeah, this girl's great.
48:58Yeah?
48:59Yeah, she's great.
49:15She's getting her man dance.
49:16She's getting her man dance.
49:18She's getting her man dance.
49:19All right, let's find our husband.
49:24Let's get it, boys.
49:25Let's do this.
49:29I like the way Cal makes me feel.
49:31I like the way that Cal makes me laugh.
49:33Good morning.
49:34Hello.
49:35I feel like I can get super open and vulnerable.
49:38Very much looking forward to this day.
49:40I'm glad.
49:41Honestly, that Wigan accent just gets me.
49:44I'd love to tell you about mine after hearing about yours.
49:48I had a very happy childhood, very loving.
49:52It's just the sad aspect of it is my parents divorced about eight years ago
49:57and Christmas is one of my biggest things
49:59and we always have such an intimate family Christmas.
50:02It would just be the five of us at home
50:04and now it's like, you know, you split it between your parents
50:07and I miss that.
50:09And I think to have that was beautiful, but then to not have that.
50:13It's like Christmas, your favourite childhood memories
50:16being around the dinner table and stuff.
50:17Yeah.
50:18It's me, my mum, my dad, my sisters.
50:21We're playing our board game.
50:23Just us all being together, like that family unit.
50:27We've never like, oh God.
50:30We haven't had that obviously after they divorced.
50:35So like, yeah, so like, that for me was so special
50:44because we didn't like get that again afterwards,
50:47if that makes sense.
50:48Yeah.
50:50Yeah.
50:51Yeah.
50:51I want my kids to have that.
50:53But on the plus side, you've got your own future family Christmas
50:57things to look forward to.
50:58This is what makes me so excited to have a family unit going forward
51:02is that we can create that again.
51:04Yeah.
51:05I feel like, yeah, 10 out of 10 on family values and all
51:06from what I'm hearing so far.
51:08I feel like I've had maybe a somewhat similar childhood to you
51:11because grew up happy, didn't have much,
51:13but we didn't want for anything.
51:14And then my mum and dad divorced when I was around 18.
51:17I think it was my first year at uni.
51:19Exactly the same time as me.
51:20Yeah, that's mad.
51:23Everything's fine.
51:24Like we stayed with my mum and my dad moved away.
51:26And do you get to see your dad much or is it a bit more that?
51:29Well, he lives in Dubai now.
51:31So when I was living there, I got to see him more
51:33and we did connect a bit more.
51:34But since I've been back,
51:36it'll be like a message every few weeks or something or a voice note.
51:40Yeah, were your parents born here?
51:42My mum's English and then my dad, he's from Pakistan.
51:45They've got the Muslim side of their family.
51:46They've got the Christian side of their family.
51:48Oh, wow.
51:49My background heritage is Indian.
51:53I didn't know that, but I was going to ask.
51:54Oh, did you not?
51:56Hey, this could be a conflict, you know.
51:58Well, I'm half Pakistani, will your family definitely accept me?
52:01That's the thing, because I know it's true, Indians and...
52:04Yeah, but listen, we can bridge the gap.
52:06We can mend the peace.
52:08Are we just going to sort of solve history?
52:11Yeah.
52:12I've come here to find love definitely
52:13and I wouldn't have expected to find it in Sarova.
52:18She's got Indian heritage, I've got Pakistani heritage
52:20and, like, historically, like, there's been conflict
52:22and a massive divide between India and Pakistan.
52:2510, 15 years ago, me and her probably wouldn't even be
52:27in having a conversation.
52:31Especially with the older generation,
52:32I know from experience,
52:34a parent with an Indian daughter
52:35would not want them dating a half-Pakistani or Pakistani guy.
52:39Like, they just did not get on.
52:42Where is Cal from, though?
52:44He's in Wigan.
52:45But someone told me that he's half,
52:46he might be Pakistani.
52:47He's half-Pakistani.
52:49And half what?
52:49He's half-Pakistani, half-English
52:51and in terms of history,
52:53basically, India-Pakistan, it's a massive...
52:54No!
52:55Yeah.
52:56No go.
52:58Did you speak about that?
52:59Yeah.
53:00How did you?
53:00Because he goes,
53:01are we okay to be sat here talking together?
53:04Oh, yeah, yeah.
53:05So, yeah.
53:14Oh, look at someone I'm looking forward to seeing,
53:16particularly, I don't know why.
53:18I think yesterday,
53:18they just left a little imprint on me.
53:20Oh, what, you went to bed thinking about them?
53:22I went to bed thinking about them.
53:24Amazing.
53:24And here we are today.
53:25I feel a little bit red.
53:28I do feel really strongly for Billie.
53:32I've never felt like this before.
53:34I'm all jittery.
53:35I'm all like, ah!
53:36Like, trying to put my hands on my feet today.
53:39I feel a little bit looser today.
53:40I've let a bit more out.
53:41Yay!
53:42I just really like Billie.
53:45Really like Billie.
53:51Ah, she was like a clear winner.
53:53Yeah, and now...
53:54And now, she's still up there,
53:56but it's just a hell of a lot harder.
53:58Yeah.
53:59With Ashley being cabin crew,
54:01I think I've been very much on the fence back and forth.
54:03I've been undecided,
54:04but I do have my reservations.
54:07Oi!
54:09It's hard, man.
54:10I've come from a failed marriage.
54:12I want my next marriage to last forever.
54:14I don't want to hurt her, either.
54:15I don't know if that's what is driving me nuts.
54:18My head's all messed up.
54:26It is still on my mind,
54:28and it is something that could impact my decision.
54:35Oh, dear.
54:48Hello.
54:48Hi, Billie.
54:53How are you today?
54:54I'm really excited.
54:56I've dressed up for you.
54:58I have thought about you a lot.
55:04So...
55:06I loved our first dates.
55:07Totally.
55:09But...
55:11I think there comes a time
55:12where you have to kind of be honest to people.
55:14Oh, oh, oh.
55:17We trumbled on our own.
55:22Um...
55:30We're just tumble till we break.
55:35All our photos hit the floor.
55:41Heart is broken, feel the quake.
55:45We're too late.
55:46Oh, oh, oh, oh...
55:52Oh, oh, oh.
55:53Go, go, go, go, go, go.
55:57Baby, don't you know?
56:01Oh, oh.
56:04Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
56:39Oh, oh, oh.
57:09Oh, oh, oh.
57:34Oh, oh, oh.
