First Dates

Newly married Fred Sirieix watches on as serial dater Conner, from Surrey, tries to connect with tech consultant Charlie, a self-described geek who turns heads. Next in is Sophie, a tattoo-loving mum-of-three from Cheshire who has never dated a woman before. Her date, Emily, is a massage therapist with a calming energy. The two bond quickly, but a twist lies in store as it becomes apparent that one has her husband in tow.

It's a night of personality, passion and surprise pairings as Rebecca, a Boris Johnson fan, finds her political match in Bradley. Paris and Serena navigate chemistry and chaos over a spilled drink, while seaside-loving midwife Anna meets her sensitive surfer in Luke. Cormac, a vintage-obsessed 24-year-old, finds the heat with bold 58-year-old Lorraine.

Daters who believe it's never too late to find that elusive spark, including Cornwall romantics Mark and Josie, single mum Maisie and guarded Dan, and gaming duo Joe and Rebecca.

Kathleen, a 64-year-old singer with a Top of the Pops past, meets Sue, a campervan-loving former handywoman who's embracing her new life after coming out. Holiday park performer Edward connects with musical-loving Rosie, who's never even held hands with a boy but might just find her leading man. Jet-setting superyacht steward Natasha seeks love with yacht captain Alex. And ex-copper Kerry wants an alpha male who's fit for royalty. Is Dan her king in waiting?
