00:00Tonight, James gets grilled, Gabby gets a mosh, and David gets stuck. Plus, it's the first mixer of the series.
00:43Welcome to Celebs Go Dating, the only place dedicated to helping romantically
00:49challenge celebrities cop off with members of the public.
00:53Ah, yes, they have come through, the photographs.
00:57It's a new day at the agency where Tom snuck onto Anna's laptop to access some pretty X-ray
01:02material by the sounds of things.
01:04Oh, yes, the top view. That's majestic.
01:09Sounds like he's logged on to P-Dog's OnlyFans page.
01:12Wait till you see the bottom view, Tommy boy. Cavernous.
01:15And we can always add candles, can't we?
01:17You'd have to ask him first, you kinky sod.
01:19Speaking of which, here comes our resident sexpert, Dr Tara.
01:23And what happens is that everybody's so chummy by the middle of the evening that you feel
01:28like you've known them for eons.
01:30Well, that sounds lovely, sort of flappery.
01:33Oh, hi, babe.
01:34Flappery's fine. No, I think that sounds sublime.
01:37Tom, you can't just ignore her. She's a doctor.
01:41Luckily, these two have arrived.
01:42Oh, it's brass monkeys.
01:45Brass monkeys?
01:46It's slang. It's cold enough out there to freeze the bollocks off a brass monkey.
01:51Pretty weird, I'll give you that.
01:52No, no, it'll be absolutely lovely.
01:54Right, shall we?
01:57Weird knocking to go into your own office.
01:59Easy peasy. And then the same way home.
02:00Oh!
02:01Hello, hello.
02:02Hi. Double trouble.
02:03Oh, that's a surprise.
02:05All right. Bye, bye.
02:06He's busy.
02:07He's so busy.
02:08I've just been firming up with them all.
02:10And the mixer.
02:11Yes.
02:11That's right. It's nearly first mixer time, baby.
02:14I'd better get down because we've got James, David and Gabby in today.
02:18T, you're working too hard. Too hard.
02:21Work hard, let's face it. He does naffle.
02:23Bit of cleaning and then a chat.
02:25See you soon. But it's nearly there.
02:27Very, very, very nearly there.
02:29Exciting.
02:31Grazy.
02:32Jesus, he got down, says quickly.
02:34I reckon trousers down, slide down a banister.
02:36And it's a good job too, because the first celeb of the day is on his way.
02:41Looking like a sexy Battenberg, it's David Potts.
02:44And just like Battenberg, he's very sweet, but always goes down well.
02:48Gobble, gobble.
02:49Hello, celebrity dating agency.
02:51Hi, Tom, it's David.
02:52David. David Cummendu.
02:56Who's David Cummendu?
02:57No bro board, no new friends.
02:59I'm that bitch, you can see my test.
03:01Ain't no laugh, ain't no shade.
03:03No laugh, no laugh, no laugh.
03:04Oh, hello, my darling boy.
03:08Oh, look.
03:10Hello.
03:12You smell gorgeous.
03:14Oh, thank you.
03:15It's something me and very old ladies wear.
03:17Lavender and the look of fear that death is just round the corner.
03:20Oh, it's gorgeous.
03:21It's a lost scent, actually.
03:23You have to go down the sort of perfume equivalent of the black web to get it.
03:27Ah, oh, OK.
03:28It's called Amazon, Tom.
03:30It's so dramatic.
03:31Oh, you're here.
03:32My entreaties to the gods have been answered.
03:35Was you requesting me back?
03:37Oh, I was.
03:38Was I at the top of the list?
03:39Yep, just after Joey Essex, Pete Wick, Charlotte Dawson, Sam Thompson, Chloe Sims and Kerry Katona.
03:44Yep, top of the list.
03:45You know, I can tell a lot has happened to you in the interim.
03:48Yeah.
03:49In the interim, the outer rim, whichever rim, really.
03:52Are you excited about having your first consultation?
03:55Yes, I am.
03:56And obviously, I've never had advice from Dr Tara.
03:59Would you like to finger her volume to get flavour?
04:02I don't think he's into her genre, to be honest, Tom.
04:05Oh, OK, your book.
04:07Yes.
04:08The internet's resident sexpert.
04:12Yes, that's what she is.
04:13How do you like it?
04:15Available at all good bookshops and some shit porn shops.
04:17There's nothing she doesn't know.
04:20She can be endlessly pumped and the well never runneth dry.
04:24My kind of lady.
04:28Now, here's someone else who's used to endlessly pumping.
04:31Endlessly pumping out some serious tunes, that is.
04:34It's Professor Green, a.k.a. Stephen, with a PH,
04:38on his way to his first ever meet-up.
04:40Definitely not a date.
04:41To be honest, I don't know if I'm even ready to date,
04:44but there's more pressure than needs to be on it by saying it's a date.
04:47Meet-up? What works for you?
04:49Meet-up? A drink?
04:51I don't know.
04:52How about meet-up?
04:53But does that feel more comfortable for you?
04:55Yeah.
04:55Perfect, cos that really is all it is.
04:58Is it a silly question?
05:00Is this a nerve-wracking prospect?
05:03Erm, yeah, this is the first time I've ever met anyone
05:09or had a situation like this.
05:11You've got this, big guy. Stop talking like a virgin.
05:13You're a rapper.
05:14Having the gift of the gab's part of the job.
05:16I was like, what do people say when they do this stuff?
05:18Oh, God.
05:19I know very little about Viv apart from she promised incredible conversation.
05:26I gather she likes music, given she's a DJ.
05:29I want to know what her guilty pleasures are.
05:31I often think guilty pleasures shouldn't even be called guilty pleasures.
05:34You've clearly never been to one of my hide-the-grapefruit parties.
05:43Back at HQ, agency's second-timer DP is heading in to see Dr. T and PCB.
05:49Watch out for the angle on that mirror, David.
05:51In those shorts, you might see a celeb todger before 12pm.
05:55David Potts.
05:56Potts and pans.
05:58Yes, yes.
05:59Classic Dr. T.
06:01At the dinner party, the agents revealed David's first date would be with Mark.
06:05Oh, my God!
06:07He has jacked me!
06:10Get in!
06:11Oh, my God, I need to chill out, but what the fuck?
06:14Oh, my God, this is love!
06:17I mean, he has a big personality.
06:20No shit.
06:21I feel like he had a bigger personality the last time he was at the agency.
06:26Really?
06:26Yeah.
06:26I can't help.
06:27What I'm most curious about is what has changed to allow him to be a little bit more reserved.
06:35Hello!
06:37Yeah, much more reserved.
06:40Are you not wearing any bottoms?
06:42I've got nothing on!
06:44Oh, wow.
06:45You're back, you're back.
06:46I'm back, baby.
06:47I wish that it was in the memo that we're not wearing pants today.
06:52You know what, David?
06:53I've never seen you in pants before.
06:55Well, I hope he's wearing pants now because he's sitting on a crane couch.
06:58I had him on at the dinner party.
07:01Oh, I didn't look below the table.
07:02I should have just done that.
07:03I had pants on.
07:06David, are you going to show up differently this time than you were previously at the agency?
07:11Wear some trousers for a start.
07:13I mean, I definitely took it semi-serious last time.
07:18Semi.
07:19Babes, if anything I know about a semi is it doesn't work.
07:24In my experience, whack an elastic band on the bass, act confident, you'll be all right.
07:28I think this time around in the agency is very different for me.
07:32Last time I was here, my guard was very much up.
07:35Whereas this time, I'm so open because I really want to make a go of this.
07:40You had not had, though, a relationship prior to your time last at the agency.
07:46So have you had one since?
07:48Nope.
07:49For the last seven years.
07:51For the last 32, love.
07:54What do you think it is that you're missing by not being in a relationship?
07:58Trousers.
07:59Like, watching my mum and dad, my grandma and then when my grandad was alive, like, them
08:04together.
08:06Like, I want that.
08:07Mm-hmm.
08:09Like, I'm very happy with my life.
08:28Mm-hmm.
08:29But I 100% want it more than anything.
08:33Aw, David, I want you to have it too.
08:35To me, you do still seem impulsive.
08:40Mm-hmm.
08:41Yeah.
08:41I think I'm an impulsive person.
08:44Yes.
08:44For sure.
08:45I can relate with you because I used to be, like, super impulsive as well.
08:51Yeah.
08:51And I think now what I have is controlled impulse.
08:55That's what I need.
08:56When you think about your upcoming date with Mark, we could begin to work on this already.
09:02Mm-hmm.
09:02Okay.
09:03So, for example, you see him.
09:06He doesn't look like the photo.
09:07Okay.
09:08Now, what's a controlled decision?
09:10What would that be?
09:12Scream inside.
09:14Yes.
09:15Then let it breathe.
09:16Then let it breathe.
09:17Then just have a ball and see what happens.
09:20He's learning.
09:21But the thing is, then, if he looks better than the picture, I don't, I'll be like a fizzing
09:26bottle ready to explode.
09:28Maybe not.
09:29But then you don't make a quick decision like, you know what?
09:32This is my partner for life.
09:33Right.
09:34Get to a place where you are regulated.
09:36Still water.
09:37Still water.
09:38Mm-hmm.
09:39That's good.
09:39Let's go with that.
09:40Okay.
09:41Because I'm always sparkling.
09:42Yes.
09:43Yes.
09:43Still water.
09:44Still water.
09:45That's the only time you make a decision.
09:46Mm-hmm.
09:47Okay.
09:48Control your impulse.
09:49Okay.
09:50Good start.
09:51Well, then, on that note, then, then, David, thank you for coming.
09:54No, thank you.
09:55Thank you, guys.
09:56Bye.
09:57Come here.
09:58Have fun.
09:59Mwah.
10:00Mwah.
10:00Oh.
10:01Come on in.
10:01Come on in.
10:02Gorgeous as always.
10:03Always.
10:03I'll see you soon.
10:04Always.
10:04All right.
10:05We'll see you.
10:05Bye.
10:06Bye-bye.
10:06Bye-bye.
10:08That was so lovely.
10:10I believe he really can find love this time.
10:13I strongly believe that, actually.
10:15And, you know, some people are drains.
10:18Some people are fountains.
10:19He's a fountain.
10:21Yep.
10:22A fountain full of moisturiser and fake tan.
10:24But a great guy with it.
10:27I'm ready.
10:29Okay.
10:30It's date o'clock.
10:30Or as Stephen with a PH would put it, daytime meet-up o'clock.
10:34And bang on time, here comes Viv with a V-I and a V.
10:38I look so good and I don't need your validation.
10:42I'm hoping to learn more about Stephen as a person,
10:46the man behind the music and what he's passionate about
10:51and just the real, just the real him, I guess.
10:54The real Slim Shady?
10:56Oh, no, that's the other one.
10:58Anyway, we've got our Miss Scarlet.
11:00Now all we need is our Professor Green,
11:02who I suspect might be bringing his lead pipe in when he sees Viv.
11:06Hi, Viv.
11:07Hello.
11:08How are you?
11:08I'm good.
11:09You all right?
11:09Nice to meet you.
11:11Nice to meet you.
11:11Yeah, I'm good.
11:15How's life?
11:16Oh, God, he looks like a nervy dog at Battersea.
11:19My first impression is Viv.
11:20She's gorgeous, but I do struggle making small talk.
11:24How do you sit across from someone you've never met
11:26and make conversation?
11:28Come on, Stevie boy, you got this.
11:32Okay.
11:33Where about she from?
11:34And he's off.
11:35So I'm originally from Newsonstove.
11:37Okay.
11:38East London girl.
11:39E17?
11:39E17.
11:40Like the band?
11:41Loved the band.
11:42I loved the band.
11:43Loved the band.
11:43What was your favourite E17 song?
11:45Stay.
11:46Good girl to go.
11:47Oh, my word.
11:48Big tune.
11:50Brian Harvey, man.
11:51Yeah?
11:51Yeah.
11:52B you?
11:52Yeah.
11:53B you?
11:53B you?
11:54I don't know.
11:54His voice was a bit of B, yeah.
11:56And him, it's you, he's demon.
11:58Only because we couldn't book Brian Harvey.
12:00By the way, there's literally a path behind you
12:02and my eyes have got a habit of wanting to process
12:04every bit of information that there is.
12:08Just to let you know, I'm not at all being elsewhere.
12:11No, not at all.
12:12Absolutely not.
12:13Yeah, it's cool, as long as you don't let it distract you too much.
12:17There was literally a dog doing a wee up a tree behind you, sorry.
12:20Oh, dear, Stephen, with a PH.
12:23Okay.
12:24Yeah.
12:26Nice.
12:27Okay.
12:28And now another one, sorry.
12:30Bad, Stephen, no, no, naughty boy.
12:32Bad boy, bad boy.
12:33That tree must stink a piss.
12:44Welcome back to Celebs Go Dating,
12:46where we are just a few hours away from tonight's first mixer.
12:49But back with pro green who saw a dog stopping by a tree.
12:53P-I-S-S-I-N-G.
12:56Where's my record deal?
12:58So, aside from DJing, what'd you do?
13:00I write comedy for television.
13:02Wicked.
13:03Yeah, so, yeah, got some funnies on a few shows,
13:07making other comedians look funnier than they are.
13:10Oh, really?
13:10How much do you charge asking for a friend?
13:12What are you excited about at the minute?
13:14What am I excited about at the minute?
13:18Erm...
13:18Horses?
13:19Do you know what?
13:20Music, again.
13:21Nice.
13:22Yeah, very much music.
13:24Because music's the one thing that I'll come up with a lyric
13:26and I'll shake my hands.
13:29Do you know what I mean?
13:30Absolutely not, no.
13:30Do you mean by, like, shake your hands?
13:32Like, I'll literally shake my hands when I get a lyric.
13:34Like, when I find that piece of the puzzle,
13:36it gives me an excitement...
13:38Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
13:38...that I don't really get from anything else.
13:40What gives you that excitement?
13:41What are you excited about?
13:42I love creating things.
13:43When I create something, I'm like, yeah,
13:46I feel alive, as cliche as it sounds.
13:49All right, well, she likes creating something
13:51and he likes shaking his own hands.
13:52We've all learnt something,
13:53and weirdly, there might be hope on this meet-up after all.
13:56Am I swimming in a fish?
13:58Oh, am I in the deep end?
14:01Talking of hands, Gabby's got hers full of the wet,
14:04slippery little Johnny she was given on her first date
14:06through the agency.
14:07Oh, am I in the deep end?
14:10Oh, there's no way out.
14:12Hello, celebrity dating agency.
14:14Hello, I'm here for the agency.
14:17Oh, Gabby.
14:18Come in, come in, come in.
14:21It's not that easy, it's not that easy.
14:25These days can't find a man to please me.
14:30Come in, come in.
14:34Hello.
14:35Hello, Tom.
14:36Oh, you have a little friend.
14:39This is little Johnny.
14:40Where did you get him?
14:41My date bought him.
14:43Your date?
14:44Oh, I see.
14:45He was big Johnny, and this is little Johnny,
14:47and I think I would love it if you guys could just take him off me.
14:50Leave it out, Gabs.
14:51If we were given a fish every time our clients had a shit date,
14:54Tom's office would look like Billingsgate
14:56and not just smell like it.
15:00Speaking of shit dates or shit meet-ups, whatever, back with Stephen with a PH.
15:07Have you seen these boats?
15:13Oh, it's called the ship, isn't it?
15:15Yeah.
15:15Yeah.
15:16That'll do it.
15:16Maritime Museum, over there in Greenwich.
15:21Yes.
15:22Yes.
15:23In Greenwich Mean Time.
15:25Yes.
15:26Yeah.
15:27GMT.
15:28Yep.
15:28There you go.
15:29Jesus Christ.
15:31Apparently, if you were to buy a boat back in the day,
15:33they had to make you a model to some sort of scale,
15:36so some of these boats were actually...
15:38Oh, models for...
15:39For people who bought the boats.
15:41Oh, that's an interesting story.
15:43Is it an interesting story?
15:45Is it?
15:47I don't think it is.
15:49Sorry to this term.
15:51You're not, mate.
15:51You're doing us a favour.
15:52Grab a chair, will you?
15:53I think we offended the chef by sending...
15:55I mean, we could have shared one, couldn't we?
15:56Probably could, huh?
15:58I mean, that would have been a bit...
15:59Next time, will you?
15:59That would have been...
16:00Hey-wee!
16:01Hold up.
16:02Is the big bad rapper blushing?
16:05Oh, it's lost four words.
16:07Sorry, I can't even blast it now.
16:08I don't know how, but Stevie's ship chat must have floated Viv's boat.
16:12I'm not just saying it.
16:13I actually have had a really nice time.
16:15Likewise.
16:17Shall we do splitsies?
16:18No, I'll get this one.
16:19Thank you, I appreciate it.
16:20That's all right.
16:21When you're ready.
16:23Thank you so much.
16:26Shall we make a move?
16:27Yeah, let's do it.
16:28I've had a really nice time.
16:30Have you?
16:31Thank you for...
16:32Okay.
16:33...coming on a date with me.
16:34It was lovely hanging out.
16:35Well, it wasn't all plain sailing for the prof.
16:38But he navigated some choppy waters and set Selva home.
16:42And I've run out of sea bass metaphors.
16:44Where's little Johnny when you need him?
16:45Stephen was really, like, easy to talk to.
16:48I would see Stephen again.
16:50Date two would be great.
16:51I feel good about how it went.
16:53Lots to process.
16:54Viv's wicked.
16:55She's got a great vibe.
16:57But beyond that, I don't know yet.
16:59You can see why he's a professor.
17:01See you back at the lab.
17:05From pro green to pro glow now.
17:08And it's David who's on his way to his first date with Mark.
17:12Pucker up, big boy.
17:14There is that slight little bit of nerves.
17:16But it's like, you know, just like a little bit of a belly twinge.
17:20That could just be your nuts tied up in your three-inch running shorts.
17:23I just need to think controlled impulsivity or something like that.
17:28So basically, control my impulsions.
17:33Fucking word, Ez.
17:36Yeah.
17:37Let's hope it's not a short king.
17:39If he is, you'll have to bend down to kiss his ring.
17:45You OK?
17:46Hi.
17:47Hi.
17:47Hi, nice to meet you.
17:48You OK?
17:48Right, it's the moment of truth, Tom, to find out how tall Mark is.
17:52Hi.
17:53Hello.
17:53Hi, nice to meet you.
17:54You too.
17:55I'm David.
17:56Mark.
17:56Oh, this is over.
17:57Mark, you OK?
17:58Yeah.
18:03Oh, what are you going to drink?
18:05I am a little boring.
18:08Little and boring.
18:09What a catch.
18:10So I'm going to do like a gin and tonic.
18:12I feel like that's...
18:12That's not boring.
18:13It is boring.
18:13A bit classic.
18:14Yeah, no, it's classic.
18:16Classically boring.
18:17What are you getting...
18:17Do you know what?
18:18I might get an Aperol spritz.
18:19OK.
18:20I think I'm going to go with that, maybe.
18:21But I will have a little nosy at the other things.
18:23Nosy.
18:24I'm still getting used to a lot of, like, the English side.
18:26Oh, God, yeah.
18:27And the accents, for sure.
18:28Like, I bet my accent's very different to everyone around here,
18:31isn't it?
18:31Mm-hmm.
18:32Mm-hmm.
18:32I absolutely did an inside scream when Mark stood up.
18:37But I'm not going to let my impulsions take over.
18:40I'm going to enjoy the day and see what happens.
18:43You never know.
18:44It could be the love of my life.
18:45I think, right, I don't want to big myself up.
18:47But I think I can do quite a good Australian accent.
18:49Please.
18:50Yeah.
18:50And then you can try and do mine.
18:52Ooh.
18:53Right, what do you want me to say?
18:56Do you want me to just go for it?
18:57Just go for it.
18:57OK.
19:00OK.
19:00I want me to be there myself.
19:02Yeah.
19:03Get in character.
19:03No, no, no, no, no, no.
19:06You all right, Dave?
19:07Right, OK.
19:08Mm-hmm.
19:10Good day there.
19:11I'm David.
19:12I've come all the way from Bolton up north.
19:15It's been bloody lovely to be here with you today.
19:18I think I prefer that to his normal accent.
19:20How was that?
19:21That was pretty good.
19:22I just got it in.
19:23I think I'd be able to do, like...
19:25The justice.
19:26I think give it a go, though.
19:28This could be interesting.
19:30Ooh, I don't even know what to say.
19:32Hi, my name's...
19:33Oh, see?
19:34I can't...
19:35Anyway.
19:36Yeah.
19:37I tried.
19:38I tried.
19:40Well, aside from laughing in his date's face,
19:42Davey's doing well at being less impulsive so far.
19:44I'm impressed.
19:48On the other side of town,
19:49Gabby and her goldfish are off to meet the agents.
19:53Come on in.
19:57Hello.
19:57Oh, hello.
19:58What on earth?
20:00What did you bring with you?
20:01This is little Johnny.
20:03At her first date,
20:04fisherman Johnny brought along a water-based wingman.
20:07Nobody's ever fetched you a goldfish.
20:09He also brought along some chat that truly sucked.
20:11I'd suck a fart out of your arse.
20:14Fit, haven't you?
20:14Which meant Gabs wasn't too keen to let her catch nearer.
20:18You get the idea.
20:20Little Johnny.
20:20Yes.
20:22And he's a gift from me to you,
20:24seeing as you sent me on a date with Big Johnny.
20:27What?
20:28You and Johnny have had a baby?
20:30Look, she's a dating expert, not a biologist, all right?
20:33Big Johnny brought this with him.
20:34Never in the history of the agency
20:37has this ever happened.
20:39And I've watched Gary Lucy be sick on a yacht.
20:41I was really kind of apprehensive about my date,
20:44and I think I had every reason to be.
20:46He said some of the most outrageous things to me.
20:49Such as?
20:49Like what?
20:50I can't say it.
20:51Say it.
20:51I can't say it.
20:52Go on, say it.
20:53You two are ladies.
20:55Was it that bad?
20:57What was it about?
20:57He told me he wants to suck a fart out of my arse.
21:01Don't knock it till you've tried it.
21:07Agency first.
21:08That is an agency first.
21:09Two agency first.
21:10A fish.
21:10Fish and someone's chat up line being they want to suck a fart out of your butthole.
21:14I mean...
21:14I really have come into this with high hopes.
21:19I want to try and meet somebody,
21:21because otherwise I'm just like, what's it, wasting my time?
21:25So, were you expecting, like, a husband right away?
21:29I mean, I wanted a husband years ago, hon.
21:32It's just not looking good.
21:34Like, you know, you're going on, like, a long journey here with the agency.
21:38Spot on.
21:38I think managing expectations is going to be really key for you.
21:42You are a boss bitch, and we couldn't be more for that.
21:46Yes.
21:46Freaking love it.
21:47Love it, admire it.
21:48But I think there is perhaps a lot of work we can do around why.
21:52And I think that is often very indicative of possibly what you've gone through in your life.
21:57It's defence.
21:58To move on, we need to know the past.
22:01Oh, God.
22:02I start from the top.
22:04I had a boyfriend.
22:06And then he cheated on me in the end.
22:09And then I had a boyfriend.
22:12Who also cheated on me.
22:15What?
22:16So then I went on Love Island.
22:17And then I was with Marcel for a year.
22:23He cheated on me.
22:24Oh.
22:25And then...
22:27Oh, my God, it's actually a running theme.
22:30And then the boy, the guy after him, cheated on me.
22:36Sorry, I'm getting upset.
22:43Woman to woman, that's the worst fucking thing ever.
22:46Yeah.
22:47It's kind of embarrassing when I just said it out loud.
22:50Because I'm just like, oh, my God.
22:54It wasn't your fault.
23:08Welcome back to Celebsco Dating, where after Gabby's date with fisherman Johnny floundered,
23:13it's all got a bit emotional for the Love Island ledge, who's been opening up about her two-timing exes.
23:19Oh, bless her.
23:20You are so resilient.
23:23You've got to hand it to Dr T and A, doves.
23:25Even when emotions run high, they're always there with expert insight.
23:31That's really shit.
23:33Thanks, Hannah.
23:34Gabby has shown real courage in opening up about her previous relationship trauma.
23:39It can be very painful to show that level of vulnerability.
23:42But what I do know is that it can lead and will, I reckon, with Gabby, lead to growth.
23:48You've gone through many infidelities.
23:51Mm-hmm.
23:52I would say statistically more than what an average person would have endured.
23:58Why do you think they've cheated?
24:04Um, I think whenever all of the people that have cheated on me, I think I've always put
24:11them on a pedestal and always believe that they're better than me.
24:16One of them even said to me once, oh, do you ever think, do you ever wonder why I chose
24:19you?
24:20What?
24:20Yeah.
24:22Um.
24:22What?
24:23Because he was so in demand at the time.
24:25Oh, what a POS.
24:27You have dated some shit, man.
24:29Mm-hmm.
24:30I know.
24:30Mm-hmm.
24:31But you know what?
24:32When you have shit people around you, they just make you feel like shit.
24:36Oh, yeah.
24:37And this plays into your self-esteem.
24:40Yeah.
24:41What do you think of yourself?
24:44Mm.
24:53You have so much to give in a relationship, but you come across as very lost.
24:58Mm-hmm.
25:00Do you know the difference between being confident or seeming confident versus having high self-esteem?
25:07Externally, you present very confidently, which is really helpful because sometimes you
25:11can fake it till you make it.
25:13Yeah.
25:13But a lot of times you can't.
25:15Mm-hmm.
25:15And so internally, you haven't really worked too much on your self-esteem.
25:21No, because I think what I would like to think that I've got good self-esteem, because
25:26I know what is, I know what I deserve.
25:31I have tried to be better.
25:34I have done some mindset work and stuff over the past.
25:36Mm-hmm.
25:36I think it's just deep-rooted issues.
25:38It is.
25:40It's 100.
25:41Yeah.
25:41What we need to really work on you is that inner self-confidence, right?
25:46But real self-esteem, put yourself on that pedestal.
25:49And what we want to do is work on that inner core resilience to help you show up in your
25:53dating world, in your relationship world, going, I'm Gabby and I'm the full package.
25:59That's the work we need to change.
26:00Mm-hmm.
26:01Sound fair?
26:02Yeah.
26:02A healed version of Gabby.
26:05We have got you under our wing.
26:07We think you're incredible, and we are just really excited to see where we can help move
26:11you.
26:12Thanks, guys.
26:12Can we do a group hug?
26:14Yeah.
26:15Let's bring it in.
26:16Let's bring it in.
26:16Let's bring it in.
26:17Yeah.
26:18I love you.
26:19We love you.
26:20No more shady men.
26:21Yeah.
26:22Yeah.
26:23Stop dating pricked.
26:25Should we do a group high five?
26:26High six, surely.
26:27Yeah.
26:28I was about to say, you two have amazing racks.
26:30No worries.
26:31Gabby, we love you.
26:32Love you too.
26:33And we're going to have fun.
26:34Get your face on.
26:35Okay.
26:36Mixer.
26:37Well, if the boob high six didn't get you in the mood for the first mixer, I don't know
26:41what will.
26:42Oh, she left a fish.
26:43Tom will sort that out.
26:46Farewell.
26:47Don't worry.
26:48The fish is fine.
26:49Tom's just out of shit.
26:54Back with agency two-timer David Potts now, who's taking time out from ripping Aussie Mark's
26:59accent and whinging about his height to having a proper convo.
27:05Right, Mark, talk to me.
27:07Let's get into the nitty gritty.
27:09So, have you been on many dates since you've been here in London?
27:13I haven't, actually.
27:14Okay.
27:14Yeah.
27:15I've been, yeah, I've been like one or two.
27:17Okay.
27:17This is the third.
27:18Oh, okay.
27:19So, I'm going to be honest, the fact that Mark is so much shorter than me, he's kind of
27:25putting me off a little bit, but I'm going to try and look past it, okay?
27:29And I'm going to try and not let this affect the date, because he is fit.
27:33Right, what's your go-to?
27:34Like, what's your normal type, if you have one?
27:37Normal type is funny.
27:39What about you?
27:39Nice.
27:40What do you usually go for?
27:41So, as, like, a person.
27:43Yep, strictly no animals.
27:45I want someone who's, like, kind, who can work the room.
27:49It's got a bit of spunk, you know?
27:51I do normally go for older, I know I'm older, but the agents have told me I need to broaden
27:57my horizon.
27:58Okay, yes, yeah.
27:59Okay?
28:00Mm-hmm.
28:00So, I'm broadening my horizon.
28:02Lucky me.
28:03Well done, David.
28:04I think this counts as progress.
28:06So, ideally, I like someone tall as well.
28:09Bloody hell, not this again.
28:11But it's fine, we can just stick you in some heels.
28:15I like tall, looking fresh.
28:18That's a massive tip for you.
28:20Yeah, thank you.
28:20Fresh to death.
28:22Yeah, for sure.
28:23If you put a pair of heels on, it's done.
28:27Brilliant.
28:28Just as long as you're done with this height banter.
28:31How tall are you?
28:32Oh, for fuck's sake.
28:33Oh, 167 centimetres.
28:37Which is, like, five foot five.
28:38Ah, okay.
28:39So, I am six foot one and a half.
28:42I think I'm 187 centimetres.
28:45That's very tall.
28:47How's the weather up there?
28:48Do you know what?
28:49It's bloody boiling.
28:50This is what I'm saying.
28:51This is why I'm always hot.
28:52Because I'm so close to the sun.
28:53Exactly.
28:54Like, I'm going to get sunburned.
28:55Do you know what I mean?
28:57Yeah, don't get too close to the sun, though, David.
28:59You'll end up like that Greek fella.
29:00What's his name?
29:01The one with the wings.
29:01Oh, never mind.
29:03Oh, never mind.
29:03No time for that, because...
29:05Oi, oi.
29:06Here comes a celeb who didn't get the cream on his date with Kitten, which means his search
29:11for the perfect pussy goes on.
29:13To the left.
29:14Take it back now, y'all.
29:15It's superstar DJ James Haskell.
29:18Right foot, left foot.
29:19Left foot, left foot.
29:20Hello, celebrity dating agency.
29:22Yeah, it's James Haskell.
29:23Oh, come in.
29:25Easy, tiger.
29:26Calm down, Tom.
29:27To the left.
29:29Take it back now, y'all.
29:31One hop this time.
29:32One hop this time.
29:34We need wider door frames for you.
29:36Fury, how are you?
29:37You all?
29:38I'll be right.
29:39You're doing fantastic, yeah.
29:41Oh, you're giving me mercury sandals.
29:43You don't get them in shoe zone.
29:45I shall float for the remainder of the day.
29:47Yes.
29:47Who was the one who flew too near the sun?
29:50Icarus.
29:51Icarus, yeah.
29:52Icarus, that's his name.
29:53Don't go too near the sun.
29:54His father built him in the wings, didn't he?
29:56Yes, yes.
29:56He said, don't fly too near the sun.
29:57Yeah, I like Greek mythology.
29:59Oh, me too.
30:00Well, you're like Zeus.
30:01You're like Zeus with all the juice.
30:02Better than Hermes with all the herpes.
30:05Stop it.
30:05You're just gargantuan.
30:07It's typical flanker heft, isn't it?
30:10It is.
30:11What a flanker indeed.
30:12I bet he's been flanking himself blind since he split up with Chloe.
30:16By that, I mean playing a bit more rugby, obviously.
30:23Back at his date with Mark, David's delivering a masterclass in first date technique slash getting hammered.
30:29Delete where applicable.
30:31Oh, there goes a sprint.
30:34I just thought I'd chuck it back, you know.
30:39That's the knob in the neck.
30:40Don't drop wasted.
30:41Well, he's just trying to get his money's worth.
30:43Speaking of which, isn't it about time you got the bill?
30:46Here you go, Guy.
30:47Thank you so much, my love.
30:51What's up, David?
30:52Come out without your bank card again.
30:53Don't worry, I'm sure they do Apple Pay.
30:57I'll get this.
30:59No.
30:59Are you sure?
31:00My pleasure.
31:02That's one advantage.
31:03You're not wearing trousers.
31:03No pockets for your wallet.
31:05Smart.
31:06Perfect.
31:07Would you like a receipt with that?
31:07Oh, no, that's fine.
31:08All right.
31:09Thank you so much.
31:09I'm going to rest your day, guys.
31:10Thank you so much.
31:12So, how'd you find the date?
31:14Hmm.
31:15Instant face-to-face date feedback.
31:17This could be awkward and I'm here for it.
31:20Yeah.
31:20Yeah, it was lovely.
31:22It was definitely lovely.
31:23I think you're really lovely.
31:25Lovely person.
31:26Great energy.
31:26Great chat.
31:28What about you?
31:29The same.
31:30Yeah?
31:30Great energy.
31:31Great chat.
31:31I think we have a connection.
31:33Okay.
31:33I'd be keen to get to know you a bit more.
31:35Yeah.
31:35Find out a bit more about, A, your dating history.
31:38B, your life.
31:40Yeah.
31:40Your, you know, life in the entertainment industry.
31:42Neither of those should take long.
31:44No, I'd be keen to see you again and see, yeah.
31:46See how it goes.
31:48Yeah, I'll have a little think about it.
31:50Yeah, no worries.
31:50I'll have a little think, my darling.
31:52Ah, yes.
31:53The old treat them, non-committal after calling them little approach.
31:56Classic potsy.
31:58Oh, are you wearing trousers?
32:00Yes.
32:00Thank you so much.
32:02I'd love to see David again.
32:04I felt like the goodbye was quite friendly, but it's a first date, so you kind of never
32:07know until you sort of go on a second date and explore that.
32:11Oh, Jesus.
32:11Oh, wow.
32:12That's, oh, it's raining.
32:14Oh, gorgeous weather.
32:15My philosophy is I'll get this one, you get the next one, because if I intend to see
32:19you again, then I'm more than happy to pay.
32:21Yeah, I wouldn't be banking on that if I were you.
32:23I'll tell you what, when he does trousers, he fucking does trousers.
32:27Look at them.
32:27So when I walked in and saw Mark, I thought, wow.
32:31And then he stood up and I was like, wow, but so stunning.
32:38Sometimes stunning things come in small packages.
32:41And sometimes small packages come in stunning things.
32:43But it's rare.
32:45Take it from me.
32:45So maybe someone with a little bit more oomph and a few more inches.
32:52Wouldn't go a mess.
32:57That's disgusting.
32:58I'm joking.
32:59No, he's not.
33:03Back at the agency, ex-rugby slash superstar DJ James Haskell is heading up to see Anna and
33:08Paul, who'd be keen to find out whether his date with Kitten went well or he just went
33:13home to Flank.
33:16Come on in.
33:18Oh, no.
33:19There he is.
33:20Jane.
33:21How are you?
33:22Good to see you.
33:23Has kicked off his agency experience with Kitten, who may have been keen to get her claws
33:28into him.
33:29People have always told me that they can imagine me with a rugby player.
33:32Oh, really?
33:33But a conflap with Colleen confirmed he wasn't in the mood for dancing or making sexy music.
33:39I'd probably need someone a bit more mature than that, a bit more kind of worldly wise.
33:45The date that you went on with Kitten.
33:47Yes.
33:47How would you rate it?
33:48Being really honest, it wasn't a spark for me, a romantic spark for me in that sense.
33:54She was very attractive.
33:57There was lots of things we sort of talked about.
33:59Okay.
34:00All right.
34:00Good feedback.
34:01So, we asked Kitten, in your opinion, what did James do right on your date?
34:07I feel like he was a gent, always checking in to see if I'm okay.
34:12At times he complimented me.
34:13He has respect for his ex-wife.
34:16I'm just not sure if he is fully open to date.
34:21I think it's very astute, yeah.
34:23I felt really guilty.
34:24I felt really guilty because I've obviously been separated two and a half years with Chloe.
34:30I'm very aware that I do not want to do anything in front of Chloe and I don't want to
34:35rub anything into her face.
34:39I think people in the press, they look for kind of nefarious reasons.
34:43It puts pressure on the person you're with, it puts pressure on you.
34:45We didn't take this lightly.
34:47We were couples therapy, we did stuff.
34:48We worked at it.
34:52You know, I made mistakes.
34:56Was there an affair?
34:59Well, come on, James.
35:01Was there?
35:11Welcome back to Celebs Go Dating,
35:14where the agents want to know if ruckabugger James Haskell
35:17got into a scrum with another hun during his time with Chloe.
35:21Was there an affair?
35:24Take your time, mate.
35:27No, no, no, not at all.
35:28All right, well, that clears that up then.
35:30Case solved.
35:31My sporting career was very selfish because you had to be.
35:34Lots of travel, lots of work.
35:35Then I switched into DJing and travel and work with that.
35:38And I probably needed to be more there for Chloe when we had both the early doors.
35:42And I think that, you know, we argued and stuff.
35:44And I just think it was one of those things where it was better to be where we are now
35:48than it was before.
35:49It doesn't sound like there was one massive catalyst for the relationship breakdown.
35:53You have a child, you throw careers into the mix.
35:57One in five couples break up within the first 12 months of having a baby.
36:00Lucky bastards.
36:01I want to be really respectful because Chloe will always be a massive part of my life
36:04and will always be there, as will my daughter.
36:06They're really a priority for me.
36:08And that's something that I'm going to have to really manage if and when I meet someone.
36:12Let's call it for what it is.
36:13This is a very new experience for you now, coming out of a relationship with a child.
36:18It's a whole new ball game.
36:20Oh, nice little rugby reference there from Anna.
36:22This is starting from scratch again when it comes to dating.
36:25The stakes are so much higher.
36:27And it is about juggling all these balls.
36:30All right, you can ease back on the rugby puns now.
36:31And I think just to reassure you, we will never do anything to jeopardise your relationship
36:38with your ex, with your daughter, with your family.
36:42But if you do snog someone, we'll put it on the telly.
36:45Just saying.
36:46I think it's very, very important for you to know that respecting your ex doesn't mean erasing your desire.
36:57Yeah.
36:58Here we go.
36:59Lock the door, shut the curtains.
37:00We're getting deep.
37:00I think part of that also will impact your dates because you want there to be clarity
37:08from the datey's standpoint that you are here to date.
37:14Surely going on the date is a bit of a giveaway, but maybe that's just me.
37:18And I think you being clear in terms of what you're seeking,
37:22even if it's not with this particular person, Kit, in this case, I think is very, very important.
37:26Brian, you know, I am open to date.
37:28I think it's just, it's very new for you.
37:31Yeah.
37:31And I think you're figuring out how the hell does this all work for me now?
37:35And we will help you with that, OK?
37:38And I want you to maybe just let out a little bit of that control and give it over to
37:43us.
37:43Right, right.
37:44OK.
37:45The best environment to allow James to relinquish is a mixer.
37:50Oh, yeah?
37:51That's the best environment right there.
37:52Oh, and you are going to be a mixer maestro.
37:55Yes.
37:55Oh, I'm just asking, I'm still married.
37:56Oh.
37:58Yeah, I wouldn't lead with that if I were you.
38:00We're going to be intrigued to see how you do at it, and we just can't wait.
38:05Not like a school disco, you try and kiss how many people you can kiss.
38:07No, no, no.
38:08I'm joking.
38:09Is he though?
38:10Don't go around getting out from everyone.
38:12I won't.
38:12Can we have a big bear hug?
38:14Of course you can, yeah.
38:15Right.
38:15Of course you can.
38:16Mind the dicky leg.
38:17Mind the dicky leg.
38:18And the leggy dick.
38:19Hold it, the face is, thank you.
38:20Come on, darling.
38:21OK.
38:21Right, I'll see you guys later.
38:22Have a good one.
38:23Right, James, go and sort yourself out and get ready for tonight's big night.
38:27Right, that's right, it's time for the first mixer of the series.
38:33A chance for the agents to see what our celebs' dating skills are really like
38:37as they cast them adrift in a pool of sexy singles.
38:43We've got Tom Polishing Big Balls, we've got Champers, we've even got Mr. Pringles himself.
38:49Yeah, he's a bit older now.
38:50The next thing we need is some agents.
38:53Come on, guys, stop walking in slow motion.
38:55We've got a mixer to do.
38:58Oh, love.
39:00Tickety, chic, chic.
39:02Well, back at you, kids.
39:04Back at you, kids.
39:05Oh, loves.
39:05No, no.
39:06Silly old character here.
39:10T, this is exceptional.
39:12This is an amazing mix and we haven't even got started yet.
39:15I know. It puts a lot of spring in my step.
39:17Oh, oh.
39:18It makes me bounce.
39:20All right, calm down.
39:21You've rattled the IP for Final Boss Fan Club over there.
39:23All right, T, do you have our special station set up?
39:27Yes, there's an alcove through there.
39:30Okay.
39:30We love to be spies.
39:33They won't even know that we can see and hear everything that's going on.
39:37It's a brilliant viewing station.
39:39You're going to be like demi-deities with eyes and ears everywhere.
39:43We'll be listening and watching everything our celebs get up to.
39:47This is our chance to see where they may be going right or wrong
39:50and pinpoint what we can do to help them during their time here at the agency.
39:54And let's not forget that we do have a little surprise up our sleeves.
40:00Ooh, what have you got planned, Anna?
40:03The only thing this mixer needs now is some superstars.
40:07And failing that, some slightly famous celebs.
40:09And here they come.
40:12I want to be just like that.
40:14Her scene, just like that.
40:15I am here for this mixer and for whatever the agents have in store for me.
40:21I cannot wait to strut my stuff, find my Mr. I,
40:26or if not, just get pissed with a lot of sexy boys.
40:30Hi, guys.
40:31You all okay?
40:33Right, first of all, who's gay and who's not?
40:36Have we got the gays here yet?
40:38Okay, sorry, everyone.
40:40I'm just...
40:40There's no point in me wasting my time.
40:43David is having a ball.
40:44Yes.
40:45It looks like he might be having a dozen balls at this, right?
40:49How old is everyone?
40:50I'm 34.
40:5234 where?
40:53Just turned 21.
40:55Liar.
40:56Treat them mean, keep them keen, eh, Potsy?
40:59This man knows what he's doing.
41:01Time for another, because here comes Gabby.
41:08I'm doing my best to look as confident as I can on the outside,
41:11but on the inside, I am shitting myself.
41:14I'm feeling really vulnerable and very overwhelmed.
41:18Nice to meet you.
41:19What's your name?
41:20I'm Rhys-Am.
41:21You know, Rhys-I-Am.
41:22Will-I-Am's cousin.
41:24Very nervous.
41:25Yeah, look, I'm, like, shaken.
41:27Gotta commend her for showing up and doing her best.
41:30Yes.
41:31How old are you guys?
41:3227.
41:3327.
41:3428.
41:3528.
41:3524.
41:3624.
41:36Oh, he's young.
41:38Actually, what we know is that she has been through a lot in relationships,
41:42and we just need to help her soften those edges and boost that self-esteem.
41:47What was that?
41:48Oh, sorry, Anna.
41:49I got distracted by the man mountain who put the rr in rugby and the beat in my heart,
41:55because he's a DJ now.
41:56It's James Haskell.
42:02I'm nervous going into my first mixer.
42:04Don't mind talking to people, but this is under pressure.
42:07Paul has advised me that while I can have the utmost respect for my ex,
42:11I can also be open to dating, which is some great advice.
42:14Have you got any party drinks?
42:16I can flex my chest.
42:18I'm too much of a gentleman to look.
42:20Okay.
42:20They just passed.
42:21Well done.
42:22Well done.
42:22Happy to meet you.
42:23It's nice to meet you as well.
42:25God.
42:26You're going to pull it off.
42:27I will do.
42:28I need to lie down now.
42:30Chest in the nick of time.
42:32Right here comes Aussie Mavs Lucinda.
42:35Can someone check on James?
42:36People, I'm really looking forward to this mixer.
42:39I'm a bit of a social butterfly,
42:40and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of the spunky guys in the space.
42:45Cheers, everybody.
42:46Cheers.
42:47Oh, my gosh.
42:48You guys are easing my nerves.
42:51Don't be nervous.
42:51It's a lot.
42:52We feel more nervous around you than you do about us, you know?
42:55You guys are so lovely.
42:57I'm like, where do we even start?
42:59Maybe by not marrying one of them instantly.
43:02Just a thought.
43:03It's too wee.
43:04Anyway, no time to dwell on that because we've got another celeb incoming.
43:08It's Stephen with a PH Manderson.
43:11My first mixer.
43:12Forced enthusiasm and encouraged fun.
43:15It's going to be fine.
43:16It's going to be fine.
43:18Stephen, it's going to be fine.
43:19How you doing?
43:20Professor Green.
43:21Stephen.
43:22I don't think I've ever introduced myself as Professor Green to anyone.
43:25Never.
43:26Go on, William.
43:26William.
43:27No, what is weird is you talking to this delightful gentleman rather than any of the lovely ladies
43:32we've invited to this mix-up.
43:34But hang on, who's that so shaying down the stairs?
43:38That's a rhetorical question because I know it's Killeen and she's not on the stairs yet.
43:42She's outside in the pissy rain.
43:44It's so out of my comfort zone walking into a room full of people and having to instantly
43:49put yourself out there.
43:50I can't think of anything worse.
43:52Oh, well, in you go anyway.
43:54Try to make the most of it.
43:55All the best.
43:56Oh, hello.
43:57Nice to meet you.
43:58Lovely to meet you.
43:59Mwah.
43:59Mwah.
44:00Are you very nervous?
44:01Yes.
44:02Everyone's so young.
44:03I know what you mean.
44:06Well, you look great.
44:07Like, whatever age you are, you look great.
44:10Ooh, who's this silver-tongued charmer?
44:12I know, age is just a number.
44:13Like, I certainly don't feel my age, but equally, there's practicality.
44:19Oh, there's practicalities.
44:20Practicality?
44:21Sounds like someone's got his old Nan Simmer frame to sell.
44:24Elsewhere in the mixer, Gabby's still talking to one man and two six-formers, by the looks
44:28of things.
44:29What's the usual type?
44:30Have you ever been younger guys, older guys?
44:31I always just seem to have to date younger guys.
44:34Yeah.
44:35But I don't know, I'm trying to do something different.
44:37That means we've got no chance then.
44:39Well, you're not helping yourself with bants like that, mate.
44:41What's your biggest red flag?
44:42I'm a big no-no.
44:46Um...
44:48I don't know.
44:50Being asked cheesy questions like that, by the looks of it?
44:52What's your red flags?
44:54Do you know if someone's, like, awkward?
44:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
44:57Do you know what I mean?
44:58Like...
44:58Read the room, Reese's Pieces.
45:00Gabs has already said she's nervous.
45:02You're not helping her here.
45:03I'm already on the edge.
45:05And then these lads start talking to me about their red flags and how they don't want a
45:09girl to be shy or to be awkward.
45:12And I'm stuck there being shy and awkward.
45:15It's nice to meet yous, though.
45:16Yeah, you too.
45:16See you, you too, you too.
45:17Hope you can get around.
45:18Better get around.
45:18Yeah, see you in.
45:19Nice to meet yous.
45:19Take care.
45:19Better get around, too.
45:20Take care.
45:21Bye.
45:21Hope you get another drink.
45:22Yeah.
45:23Thanks.
45:23Okay, where do I go now?
45:25This is daunting.
45:27Whoa, whoa, whoa.
45:27I don't know what's going on here with Gabby.
45:29I'm so stressed.
45:31I literally don't know what to do.
45:35Oh, she's looking a bit stressed.
45:37I feel like, am I talking to too many people?
45:41It's confusing me.
45:43I don't know.
45:43I'm so confused.
45:44This is very stressful.
45:50Oh, shit.
45:53This is hell.
45:57Tomorrow night.
45:58You are outrageous.
45:59I love her.
46:00It's Mixageddon.
46:02Is it?
46:04I mean, it's weird.
46:05This is a flirt.
46:07As a celeb.
46:09I'm just looking at someone with a pulse.
46:11She's giving him nothing.
46:13Goat.
46:14I feel like you ruled me out.
46:16Dating.
46:17After that whole exchange, it came across as very rude.
46:21Oh.
46:36Oh, shit.
46:47We'll talk to you later.
