00:00It's scary and I've just not found anything of real substance. You just look at picture, swipe, picture, swipe. There's no romance.
00:07Honey, I'm home. We've got to get cracking. Straight to it. Do you want babies? Two's ideal, three maximum. I don't want an ugly car.
00:16I have this thing where I follow my spleen. Oh, that's hot. So we'll just be slipping off each other. Slipping and sliding.
00:22Eat, sleep, date, repeat. All day. I really haven't fallen in love with you. I just met my husband.
00:30There isn't really an easy way to say this. I have another connection.
00:37It's all part of the game. Basically, this is how triangles form. Being someone's second best.
00:42That's not me. Someone needs to get this mic off me. This is a piece of shit.
00:50You are about to enter the most intense part of the experiment. You're a liar. You're a liar. You're a liar.
00:57You're a liar.
01:02Listen, no, no. It's bullshit. If you want to see her and deny it, I don't care.
01:05I don't want to be a villain. Do I think the relationship's going to last?
01:08I'd say no.
01:09Will you say I do to the person you chose to get engaged to, sight unseen? You are more happily ever after.
01:18Or will you decide to walk away forever?
01:24She changed her mind overnight. I got started.
01:27I got this feeling that I can't explain. Running through my veins, feeling up my brain.
01:37In season one, we wanted to find out if the UK could fall in love blind.
01:41And guess what? They did. Now we're back with 30 new single hopefuls,
01:45all with the same thing in common. They want to make a lifelong commitment.
01:49Here, they'll date each other without ever seeing each other.
01:52And if they like it and want to see it, then they've got to put a ring on it.
01:56Only then will they get the chance to meet each other for the very first time.
02:00So, shall we find out if love is truly blind?
02:03I think we shall. Let's go meet our singles.
02:15I'm obsessed.
02:17I was like wifey in here, mate. Yes, ma'am.
02:19My potential wifey.
02:20Cheers to us for calling in love and finding our husband.
02:30Hi, ladies. Hi.
02:34Hello, boys.
02:41This is so exciting.
02:43How are you feeling? You all right? Yes.
02:46Ready and raring to go? Ready to go.
02:48Welcome to the experiment that seeks to answer one very simple question.
02:53Is love blind?
02:54This is the place where you will choose someone to marry
02:57without actually ever seeing them.
03:00So, we know what you're here for, but fill us in on what's got you to this point.
03:08We just live in a generation where everything is so visual.
03:12You might meet somebody and they think,
03:14oh, my gosh, yeah, you're beautiful, but can I get better?
03:17Katisha, now this experiment is about way more than looks, right?
03:20Yes.
03:21Why is that important to you?
03:22It's hard being judged by your looks.
03:24Like, it's something I've been judged on in the past.
03:26So, taking that out of the picture, you'll be able to gain a deeper connection
03:30and not be judged, like, from face value.
03:32Demola, what kind of woman are you hoping to leave this experiment with?
03:35I'm hoping to find my potential soulmate, someone that is family-orientated,
03:40that is just willing to have a laugh with me because I just want to be able to laugh
03:44for the rest of my life with my forever person.
03:46It's just like, you're right.
03:50So, who's ready to find out if love is truly blind?
03:57Go on, boys.
03:59Perfect. That's the reaction we want, because the pods are now open.
04:08China means I'll ride or die, bro.
04:09Let's get it.
04:11Let's go find our husband.
04:13I'm going to find your missus, mate.
04:14I'm going to find a wife, boy.
04:15Good luck.
04:18Keeping everything crossed.
04:28I am so excited.
04:30I just really hope there's some good eggs behind that wall.
04:33I absolutely feel ready to meet my husband.
04:37Might be talking to our future wife right now.
04:39Could be.
04:46Knock, knock.
04:47Well, hey.
04:48You're meant to say who's there.
04:50Oh, I've ruined it, haven't I?
04:52I give 200% to my work, my family, my friends, but I probably haven't give 200% to the love life.
05:00What do you do, Ashley?
05:02I am cabin crew.
05:03Cabin crew?
05:04Yeah.
05:04Nice.
05:06Does that mean I'll get discounted flights now, yeah?
05:08It does.
05:09Why is that the first thing that people say, though?
05:12That, Charlie, isn't it?
05:13You're going to get that today, isn't it?
05:14My job actually does inhibit my relationships and being able to build a connection.
05:23I've been single for about four and a half years, and I just want someone who sees me
05:28for more than just cabin crew and not just 17 coffee.
05:31I'm walking down the aisle of the aircraft, doing my safety demo, and my friends are like,
05:36well, I'm walking down the aisle with my dad about to say my vows and live happily ever after,
05:41so that needs to change right now.
05:44Well, you know the emergency exits from here if this goes tits up.
05:47I feel like I'm quite lucky in life, but I've been very unlucky in love.
05:54Oh, that's amazing.
05:55Oh, hello.
05:57What an interesting bunch that was.
06:04Good luck, boys.
06:04Let's do it.
06:05Good luck.
06:06It's always been my sisters or my friends.
06:09Always people have said to me, just believe in yourself more.
06:13Hello.
06:15Hello, how are you?
06:16Hi.
06:18Go with your gut and trust yourself, and you can do it.
06:24And that's what I've told myself.
06:31First off, what is your name?
06:32I'm Ashley.
06:33Ashley, I'm Billy.
06:34Nice to meet you, Ashley.
06:35Billy, where are you from?
06:36I'm from a place called Bangor in Northern Ireland.
06:39Cool, amazing.
06:40What about you?
06:40So near Surrey.
06:42Surrey, oh, nice.
06:43If you know of it.
06:44I'm actually in the army, so I'm so used to traveling around.
06:46I was in the army cadets.
06:48You were in the army cadets?
06:49Yeah.
06:49I love it.
06:50Yeah, seriously.
06:51I actually volunteered as an adult till I was about, well, as long as I could really.
06:54And then work got in the way.
06:56I had to quit.
06:56But compact Barbie was my nickname for a while in the cadets.
07:00I like it.
07:00It sounds that cute.
07:01Because I was in the army cadets as well.
07:03Oh, my God.
07:04And so you've been in the military all your life?
07:06Yeah.
07:06So I've been in 16 years now, and I'm in the physical training corps.
07:11Do you know what?
07:12I really respect the forces, and I always go to Remembrance Sunday.
07:15Wow.
07:16For me, I take annual leave for it.
07:17It's such an important day for me.
07:19That is massive to me.
07:21Oh.
07:22What do you do for work?
07:23So I am cabin crew.
07:25Oh, yeah.
07:25Worked for a long-haul airline for 11 years.
07:28Love what I do.
07:29Do get to travel a lot.
07:30It's a really lonely job at times.
07:32So, yeah, ready to...
07:34If I met the right guy, then, yeah, who knows where life would take me?
07:39I love your laugh, by the way.
07:40You're making me laugh every time you laugh.
07:42I've got a real cackle.
07:44I'm sorry.
07:44Oh, no, it's cute.
07:45I like it.
07:46Have you got...
07:47Are you close to your family?
07:49I love my family a bit.
07:50So my dad's over in England, but when I need a dog sitter,
07:52he's first call.
07:53Have you got a dog?
07:54Yeah, I've got a wee Cocker Spaniel called Ollie.
07:56Ollie!
07:57Oh, I've got a Springer Pooh called Jet.
07:59Have you?
08:00Yeah.
08:00Oh, they get on, like, a house on fire, then.
08:03I love going for dog walks.
08:04Yeah, me too.
08:06So, with past relationships, what's the longest and most recent you've had?
08:10I've been single for over four years now, so I just had a relationship that really
08:15knocked me and totally knocked who I was.
08:19Like, was really low in confidence, and I just had to rebuild myself.
08:24Yeah.
08:24I really lost trust in men.
08:25It takes time, doesn't it?
08:27I've probably looked for the wrong values in people, to be honest.
08:30Billy in the past, and I kind of know who I want now, and I want someone that's honest
08:36and respectful.
08:37That sounds perfect.
08:39Tell me about your relationships.
08:40Um, yeah, I obviously go into more detail, but I was actually married once upon a time,
08:46five years ago.
08:46Oh, wow.
08:48Like, what happened?
08:49Was it just the, like...
08:50We just fell out of love.
08:51Um, yeah, we're both in the army, you see.
08:53Yeah.
08:53And it's kind of, you're, like, passing ships sometimes.
08:56Does divorce scare you now that you've been there?
08:59Just, I just don't like the thought of it.
09:00So, I want to marry someone, and I did marry at the time, for the rest of my life.
09:04Yeah.
09:05I never, divorce never crossed my mind.
09:07Right.
09:08Um, so when I do it again, that's going to be the last time.
09:11I want us to light each other's worlds up.
09:14That sounds perfect, and I'm sitting here already, smiling.
09:19Nice to talk to you, Vinny.
09:20Yeah, you too.
09:20I look forward to our next date, hopefully, Ashley.
09:22Will you listen to my heart A million miles
09:27We're apart When I'm looking for us
09:30Wow.
09:31Yeah, bro.
09:31Wow.
09:32You know, this is a crazy place.
09:33Crazy place for you.
09:34Crazy days.
09:35I'm definitely an old-fashioned romantic.
09:37I was probably born in the wrong generation, or single in the wrong generation anyway.
09:41I just want to find the love of my life.
09:44Smile's all right, lads.
09:45Smile's all right.
09:47I married someone to spend the rest of my life with, and the force was never on the card.
09:52I was so in love, and it's what I want to find again.
10:00Should I have my fringe like this, or over?
10:02Whatever feels good to you.
10:04But I'm asking your opinion.
10:05I hate when people do that.
10:08When people first meet me, it either goes one or two ways.
10:11They ever think I'm like this little sweetheart, but I wouldn't mouth.
10:14Hello.
10:15Hello, hello, hello. How are you?
10:16I'm so well. How are you?
10:18Or they think I'm a bit of a cow.
10:21Like, there's no in-between.
10:23This is my first date.
10:25Hopefully it's my last. No pressure.
10:27I think I'm still single, because I treat first dates like an interview.
10:32Dogs or cats?
10:33Um, I've got a cat.
10:35Do you not like cats?
10:37Like a cat, you have to really work for its love, and I'm just really not here for that.
10:40I would say that my type probably is somebody who can make me laugh.
10:46Give me some dad jokes, because I'm obsessed with dad jokes.
10:49I was in a bank earlier, and an old woman asked me to check her balance, so I pushed her over.
10:56Why did the skeleton cross the road?
10:58To get to the body shop.
11:00I need somebody that's got his own home.
11:04Do you live on your own?
11:05Yeah, I do.
11:06I just live at home, me and my mum.
11:09I don't want to date someone who lives with their mum.
11:11Be like, all right, Sandra, can I just go to your son's bedroom?
11:14That's not a bit of me.
11:17Why is this so hard?
11:20I'm very aware that I'm single because of myself.
11:23I'm a very guarded person, because I'm petrified of giving myself to somebody and not being enough.
11:30Let's go, boys. Let's go, boys.
11:32I'm a hopeless romantic, so my story's already written, and I hope it's in love is blind.
11:38God, that sounded so professional, didn't it? I was like, woo!
11:41Hello.
11:42Hi.
11:43What's your name?
11:44My name's Sophie.
11:45Sophie, it is wonderful to meet you.
11:48What's your name?
11:48My name's Kieran.
11:49What do you do, Kieran?
11:50I am an entrepreneur in the gaming world, so I'm actually a massive nerd under the surface.
11:57What do you do?
11:58I am a commercial manager for a global renewables company.
12:02Wow. Sustainability and all that.
12:04I'd love to say that's why I do it, but it actually pays really well.
12:09So, what about family?
12:11I'm one of five.
12:12Wow.
12:13Yeah.
12:14One of five.
12:15And I'm the only girl.
12:16I've got four brothers.
12:18Four bros.
12:19Yeah.
12:19Jesus, they're all going to beat me up.
12:21If you break my heart, they'll be after you, so just don't break my heart, babe.
12:24You're all good.
12:25Yeah, I'll do my best.
12:26You've got to give me the heart to break first, come on.
12:28Yeah, first, first.
12:30Have you ever been in love?
12:31No.
12:32Have you?
12:33I was in a seven-year relationship, which ended a year ago, and I'll say I was in love.
12:38I don't think I've ever had, like, a deep emotional connection, though.
12:42I feel like we're in a similar boat.
12:44I had a five-year relationship.
12:46I outgrew him.
12:48Like, he felt like my best friend and not my husband.
12:51I want to be obsessed with someone.
12:52Yeah, this is what I want.
12:54I want to be like, I cannot wait to see that person.
12:58Exactly.
12:59Instead of, ugh, like, I've got to go home to you.
13:01Yeah, exactly.
13:02I want someone who actually chose me because of my soul and not the way I look.
13:05I like that.
13:06What's your view, like, kids-wise?
13:09You want kids?
13:10Yeah, I want kids.
13:11Do you?
13:12Yeah.
13:12Sweet.
13:13Yeah, I want two, although I'm open to negotiation.
13:16Two's ideal.
13:17Three, maximum, I don't want an ugly car.
13:21What are your red flags?
13:23I feel like you're hiding something from me.
13:24What is it?
13:25Can I throw that question back?
13:26I actually think I'm a well-rounded individual, like...
13:29You sound it, to be fair.
13:30I'm not going to blow my own trumpet.
13:32However, I don't let people in so easily.
13:35OK.
13:36Which is, like, the biggest factor why I'm doing this, because I have to.
13:39Like, you have to get vulnerable in order for this to work.
13:44And I think probably why I've never truly been in love.
13:46I've never really shown everyone everything and been like, this is me.
13:51Yeah.
13:52Kieran, what else do you want to know?
13:53I want to know, can I see you again, please?
13:57I want to know, can I marry this girl?
13:58Get on one knee, Kieran.
14:00We've done the experiment.
14:01I'm there, I'm there, I'm there.
14:02I'm on one knee, first date, I'm there.
14:04Yeah.
14:06You are amazing, actually.
14:08Thanks, Tammy again.
14:09No, I'm joking.
14:11Sophie, you're amazing.
14:13Hopefully see you very soon.
14:15Yeah, hope, maybe tomorrow, Kieran.
14:17Maybe tomorrow.
14:18I think I just dated my husband.
14:22Aww.
14:25Good.
14:25Yeah, lots to think about.
14:27There's just something about Kieran.
14:29Feels very easy with him.
14:31I just met my husband.
14:34I also think that my dad would like him.
14:36I think my dad would look at him and be like, yeah, I see why you would have a connection with this guy.
14:40I hope they have pretty engagement rings.
14:44What am I now?
14:46I need some time to think.
14:47I ain't got any time to think.
14:48I've just got to fly into the next one.
14:49I've been single for the past year and I've been quite active on dating apps.
14:53And I've just not found anything of real substance.
14:55There's no depth.
14:57Good luck.
15:01Oh, my gosh, I'm not ready.
15:04Oh, my gosh.
15:04What are you not ready for?
15:05Oh, my God, I'm so scared.
15:06I hope to find love and I hope to find a wife by the end of this experiment.
15:10You know, I'm dating to marry at the moment and I'm throwing myself head first into this experiment
15:14to see if I can find that.
15:17Can I start with who are you, please?
15:19My name's Megan.
15:20Megan, so lovely to meet you.
15:21My name's Kieran.
15:22Nice to meet you, Kieran.
15:23What do you do?
15:24I am a professional dancer and a fitness instructor.
15:28Are you?
15:28Yeah.
15:29I worked on cruise ships for quite a few years.
15:31So I was traveling all over the world doing that.
15:33What sort of dance?
15:34Jazz is my forte, I would say.
15:36But when I was younger, I did freestyle disco dancing.
15:39I love dancing.
15:40Do you?
15:41I've got hips that just don't lie, honestly.
15:43Like, liquid hips.
15:46Liquid.
15:47Oh, liquid.
15:48Yeah.
15:49Well, I'm ready for the dance off.
15:50Anytime.
15:51That'll definitely happen.
15:52Tell me about your family.
15:54So I've got one older brother, absolute best friends, love them to pieces.
15:58We stay in contact quite a lot.
15:59To be honest, we stay in contact because we play video games together, if I'm perfectly honest.
16:03Oh, gamer.
16:05Um, my job is actually in the gaming world, so I'm an entrepreneur in the gaming space.
16:11I essentially market video games.
16:13Would you say that you're, um, quite nerdy?
16:15Uh, yeah.
16:16Yeah, secretly, I'm actually a massive nerd.
16:18Um, so talk to me about past relationships.
16:23Like, what has worked, what hasn't worked, what are you looking for?
16:27I mean, I've had boyfriends, but they've been pretty short term.
16:31Okay.
16:31Because I've been traveling a lot.
16:33It's just, it's not easy to keep a relationship, I'm not gonna lie.
16:37Yeah, it's just never really worked.
16:39But yeah, I just want to meet someone.
16:40I feel like so good on my own, but I just know it'd be 10 times better.
16:44Yeah.
16:45Like, sharing those memories with someone else.
16:47How about you?
16:48Um, so I've been single for a year.
16:49I did the whole single thing, you know, got out of my system.
16:52And yeah, I just want to, like, share loads of experiences with my partner.
16:56I totally agree with you.
16:59What's, um, what's your, like, long-term family goals, Megan?
17:04Do you want to, do you want to build a family?
17:06Like, yeah, definitely one day I would love to have kids.
17:10Yeah.
17:11I think I would love to just have one.
17:13And I'd also love to adopt.
17:16Oh, wow.
17:16It's just always something I'd love to do.
17:18I'm open to the adoption thing.
17:20I've not really put much thought into it, to be fair.
17:22I rate that.
17:22Well, it's nice to know that you're open to it, you know?
17:26Kieran is super lovely.
17:28I think he's got, like, that little something about him.
17:30See you.
17:31See you later.
17:33Oh, my gosh.
17:34Oh, God, I'm sweating.
17:35He had a little spark.
17:37That instant click was there.
17:39So, yeah, I'm excited about Kieran.
17:43What just happened?
17:45I've been single for a year and a half now.
17:47And I'm ready to get married.
17:49I don't want any more boyfriends.
17:50I want to be with someone for the rest of my life now.
17:54Whoo!
17:55How's it going?
17:56Too well.
17:56Too well.
17:57Love that.
17:57How did it go?
18:01My last one, I, like, we were just chatting.
18:03You know when you just, like, I forget where you are?
18:05Like, we were just chatting.
18:07Oh, that's nice.
18:07Yeah, like, he lives in London.
18:09Like, we're the same age.
18:10Yeah.
18:11Do you think he's your vibe, though?
18:12Yeah.
18:12Because you're both London.
18:13I already know who he is.
18:14Who do you think he is?
18:14Do you know who he is?
18:15Do you know who he is?
18:20So, are you still going to be very open, though,
18:21or do you feel like you're quite, like, he's my top vibe?
18:23No, I do really like him.
18:26Like, he's very, very similar to me.
18:28Oh, my gosh.
18:29Where have you found your husband?
18:32It's just a weird feeling to know that someone that you potentially like
18:36is dating other people.
18:38I don't want to share.
18:40That's not me.
18:43I never used to take astrology or spirituality that seriously,
18:45and it changed my life, so I'm such an advocate for it now.
18:48There's billions of people living on this earth.
18:50Every time you piss on a tree, you become part of that tree.
18:54I love that point of view.
18:55We're all energy.
18:57Doing Love is Blind because I want to find my life partner.
19:00I want to find that, you know, my soulmate, my twin flame.
19:03I want to have the best experience with her.
19:05What's your name?
19:06My name is Patrick.
19:07Patrick with the deep voice.
19:09I would say I'm very unconventional.
19:10I'm not the typical London boy.
19:12I'm very spiritual and, yeah, just following my spiritual journey and my energy.
19:16I'm so into, like, alignment and just spur of the moment.
19:18Like, I've had this thing where I follow my spleen.
19:21Oh, how interesting.
19:23Okay.
19:25It might sound a bit weird, but it's even more, like, potent than your gut.
19:29And you follow it literally to the second.
19:30As soon as you feel that feeling of something's going to be good or bad,
19:33you just trust it.
19:34Listening to my spleen is the best way for me to find the love of my life.
19:38I just follow my spleen.
19:40Have you ever heard of that before?
19:40No.
19:41What about following your gut?
19:42Okay, yeah, yeah.
19:43Well, I feel like I have a good, strong gut feeling.
19:45I'm not sure about my spleen.
19:46What's your gut feeling telling you now?
19:48I couldn't tell you that now.
19:54Being accepting and understanding is such a critical human trait.
19:58I just hope to find that lovely lady on the other side and be able to understand me.
20:03Good luck.
20:04Have a good one, lads.
20:08Have a good one.
20:13Hello, hello.
20:14Hello, hello.
20:15What's your name?
20:16I'm Patrick.
20:17Lovely to meet you.
20:18Nice to meet you, Patrick.
20:19What's your name?
20:19Anu, A-A-N-U.
20:21What do you do?
20:21I'm a singer.
20:22What about you?
20:23You're a singer?
20:23Oh, my God.
20:23That's amazing.
20:24Love that.
20:25Talented.
20:26What is you, Patrick?
20:27I'm a human design coach.
20:29Oh.
20:30What does that mean?
20:32So, basically, I'm like a life coach, but I use spiritual system called human design.
20:36Okay, this is a lot to write.
20:39So, sorry if I'm being quiet.
20:40No, no, go for it.
20:41Take your time.
20:42Why marriage now?
20:43I want to get married now just because, basically, I've done everything I've wanted to do in life.
20:47And I would love that someone to just, you know, blow my mind and make me feel something that
20:51I've never felt before.
20:53And it's really hard to put it in language.
20:55I would say it's more of a feeling.
20:57Like, we call it a splenic awareness, like an intuition thing.
21:00What's that?
21:01So, basically, I trust my instinct in the moment.
21:04And in the moment...
21:05Splenic.
21:05I'm writing this one.
21:06Splenic awareness.
21:07I'm learning new words here.
21:08Love that.
21:09So, what?
21:09You're trusting your gut instinct.
21:12Yeah.
21:12Trusting my splenic instincts right in the moment.
21:14And I think when it comes to it, it's something that I can't switch on or switch off.
21:19I won't question it and I'll always follow it because it's never led me astray.
21:22So, okay, I am a Christian.
21:23Yeah, right, right.
21:24Like, I do pray.
21:25Yes.
21:26I do fast.
21:27Yeah.
21:27I do read my Bible.
21:29Right.
21:29So, how does that fit in, like, with your lifestyle?
21:33Because I get up in the morning, I, like, want to pray.
21:35Right.
21:35I call my family, we pray together.
21:37Right.
21:38That's so beautiful when you say, with your family, you pray together.
21:40That's amazing.
21:41I was raised Christian, Catholic, actually.
21:43Okay.
21:44Done, like, Holy Communion and Confirmation.
21:46So, yeah, like, Christianity was actually a massive part of my life growing up.
21:50I was always praying and, you know, just affirmations and really, like, talking to God in my head and things like that.
21:57So, that's beautiful.
21:59I love that so much.
22:00Oh, thank you, Patrick.
22:01You're so kind.
22:02So are you, honestly.
22:03I really love your voice as well, you know.
22:04It's very...
22:05Oh, come back!
22:07No, seriously, it's, like, it gives me such a safe space.
22:10I feel so comfortable.
22:11Oh, I'd give you a hug if any of you was near me.
22:14I just hugged you.
22:17Thank you so much.
22:18I appreciate that.
22:19Patrick is sweet.
22:20Patrick is deep.
22:22Wow.
22:23Oh, he was nice.
22:25You come in here with a set of qualities that you're looking for in a man.
22:29And then in these short snippet of dates, you feel like, oh, this guy has these qualities.
22:33However, though, is he interested about me?
22:36I feel like with Patrick, we're speaking like we're best friends already.
22:39I can't wait to see what happens.
22:46Do you feel like you're flirting?
22:48Not really.
22:49And that's important to me?
22:50It is important.
22:51Very important to me.
22:52So, give me, like, a flirty line that you can't see me.
22:55No, I can't.
22:55No, you have to.
22:56Ideal blend is, like, a bit of flirting at the start, and then get down to business for five,
23:00ten minutes.
23:01Hi, are you okay?
23:02I'm good, Meg.
23:03How are you?
23:06I'm good.
23:07My friends would say, I am a sweet person, but also really quirky and no common sense sometimes.
23:13Well, Tom, what are you saying?
23:14Uh, I don't know, Meg, what are you saying?
23:16Oh!
23:19You've got something about you.
23:21Something I can't forget.
23:23Growing up as an Indian girl, there was a lot of pressure.
23:27So, I've only actually dated Indian boys.
23:31I always wanted an Indian Zac Efron.
23:34Pretty boy, the wispy hair.
23:36That was, like, my crush growing up.
23:38Yes, yes.
23:38Hello!
23:39I think maybe that's why I'm still single today, because it hasn't worked.
23:44So, me embracing the experiment is me being open now.
23:47Where are you from?
23:48I'm from Buckinghamshire.
23:49Buckinghamshire.
23:50It's nothing to do with Buckingham Palace.
23:53I knew you were posh.
23:55I think everyone's posh for me, to be honest.
23:58I'm dating guys.
24:00I don't think I may have dated on the outside world.
24:02My name's Chris.
24:03What's yours?
24:04I'm Sarova.
24:05I've never heard that name before in my life.
24:07I've actually Googled my name before.
24:09I do think I'm one of the only ones.
24:10I didn't Google myself in a weird way.
24:12I just wanted to see, like...
24:14It's fine.
24:14You've said it now.
24:15It's too late.
24:16Who's gonna be that forever partner?
24:18And it could be somebody completely different, who I've never gone for.
24:20Let's say you're bringing all the finances to the table.
24:23What do you think your future wife would bring?
24:25If I'm at work, you're doing everything else.
24:28Making sure dinner's ready.
24:29I don't get home till, like, half nine.
24:32I go to bed at half nine.
24:37That's not my husband.
24:42Good luck, boys.
24:46I do feel my husband's here.
24:48I have this gut feeling and I have those little butterflies.
24:52All right, love.
24:52I definitely didn't trip over the threshold then.
24:55Did you actually just trip over?
24:56I kicked it a little bit, yeah.
24:58How are you?
24:59I'm good, thank you.
25:00I'm good.
25:00What's your name?
25:01My name's Cal.
25:02What's your name?
25:03Cal.
25:03My name is Sarova.
25:05Sarova.
25:05Nice to meet you, Sarova.
25:06That's a lovely name, Matt.
25:09Whereabouts do you live?
25:10I'm from Wigan.
25:11Where are you from?
25:12I'm from just outside of London.
25:14Should have guessed with the accent to be fair.
25:16Love the little posh accent, that, you know.
25:17Oh, thank you.
25:18How old are you, Sarova?
25:19Oh, I haven't even told you.
25:21I'm 29.
25:22I'm just chatting away, aren't we?
25:23Literally.
25:24How old are you, Cal?
25:25I'm 32.
25:2532.
25:26Okay, awesome.
25:27Is that all right?
25:28Is that in the bracket, that?
25:29Is that all right?
25:30Has that made the cut?
25:31Have I made the cut, though?
25:33Yeah, yeah.
25:34You've definitely made the cut.
25:35Good, good.
25:36Is that a little tick?
25:36Yeah, yeah.
25:37That's not a deal-breaker, the age.
25:39Don't worry.
25:39So what would you do for a living?
25:40And so I'm co-owner of a medical company.
25:43That's class.
25:44Thanks.
25:44What do you do?
25:45I'm a co-owner of a gym.
25:46Oh, awesome.
25:48That's honestly so cool, because I'm a gym person.
25:51So my morning routine is hit class at the gym, sauna and steam.
25:55I'm going to put a big tick in my book on that.
25:57Yeah.
25:58In terms of, like, past relationships, do you mind if we touch upon that?
26:02Not at all.
26:02I've been single for a year and a few months.
26:04Yep.
26:05A date with a girl in Dubai was, like, amazing.
26:07Like, I thought, like, this could be the one kind of thing.
26:10A few months in, I asked her to be with my girlfriend.
26:12And then, like, after that, it shortly fell apart.
26:14Okay.
26:14And then since then, I've just learnt, like, if something ain't right,
26:17like, just don't waste any time.
26:19Yes.
26:20Like, life's too short.
26:22The other thing I learnt from that relationship was,
26:23the next time I get with someone, I want it to be my wife.
26:25Like, I'm not messing about anymore.
26:27Yeah.
26:27So, like, this is, like, the perfect opportunity for me
26:29to just find that person.
26:31Dating with intention.
26:32Yeah.
26:33And do you have any siblings?
26:35Two older brothers, two younger sisters.
26:37They're married with kids, and it doesn't make me rush or anything,
26:40but just seeing how happy it makes them, like, I want that for myself.
26:43That's literally the boat I'm in.
26:45Yeah.
26:46What kind of wife do you envision you would be?
26:49Like, what's, like, have you thought about that?
26:51I have thought about that.
26:52So, obviously, I work hard, I've studied hard, et cetera.
26:56I'd want to do it where I can still be present for my children.
27:00Yeah. I am quite old-school and want to be the protection provider,
27:03but I also see the appeal of having someone like you
27:06who almost should be, like, a force to be reckoned with,
27:08like, together, me and Europe.
27:09Yes! That is just goals, 100%.
27:12That is a couple goals right there.
27:13Yeah.
27:14Well, I've got a question for you.
27:15Would you want to see me again after this?
27:17I've had a great chat, and I think we're so similar
27:20in terms of our outlook on life and how we actually live at the moment.
27:23I think we're very similar, you know.
27:24Oh, well, this might be exciting for our next day.
27:27We'll have more to talk about.
27:28I've got a next day already, have I?
27:29Oh, if you want the next day.
27:31Definitely. If not...
27:32Of course I do. I'm not daft, am I?
27:36Absolute pleasure, darling. Enjoy the rest of your day. Bye-bye.
27:38Good night. Good night and goodbye.
27:40It will be a good night soon.
27:46How was it? That's a ten, that one.
27:47Ten? I wrote ten in the book there, mate.
27:49Jesus. It's a good one, that.
27:51Oh, my God, that was amazing.
27:53I think with me, like, I've got the gym, the nice things.
27:56People might misjudge that and think he's arrogant gym head, or maybe he doesn't read,
28:00he's not intelligent, but it couldn't be further from the truth.
28:02I like reading, I like playing chess.
28:04I can cook, I can clean, I can iron.
28:06I'm very close to my mum, and because my mum lives next door to my grandma,
28:10I'm very close to my grandma as well, so you would say I'm a bit of a mummy's boy,
28:13but that's fine by me.
28:14Here's some more good dates, mate. Yeah, I know.
28:16I've had quite a few short-term relationships, and to be honest,
28:19I'm not sure whether I've fully, truly been in love yet.
28:22I feel like if I was to fall in love, I feel like I would know it.
28:24I feel like true love would hit you like a trade,
28:26you're almost like under some sort of spell, and that's what I'm looking for.
28:29All right, lads, day one in the books.
28:34Let's go!
28:35Yay!
28:52Oh, strawberries!
28:55Oh, this is nice!
28:58Oh, a little mimosa, is it?
28:59Shall we cheers to you some more good dates?
29:08If a date goes well, I'm going to handstand walk out of there
29:11and up that red carpet.
29:14Billy is a charming Irishman.
29:18Hello, it's Billy.
29:20Hi, Billy, it's Ashley.
29:21Ash, how are you?
29:24There's common ground with Billy,
29:26and something feels special.
29:28Billy, I love that you call me Ash.
29:30Oh, I'm glad it's gone down well, then.
29:32Jeez, I don't know, I got excited to hear your cheery voice.
29:35I was like, I'm buzzing now.
29:36Oh!
29:38But there's still things I want to get to know.
29:39Then we can, yeah, really move forward.
29:44I was thinking about you in bed last night.
29:46I was thinking I just want to know a bit more about...
29:48I just want to try and picture you.
29:49Yeah, I like it.
29:50So, have you got tattoos?
29:51So, on the inside of my arm, yeah, it's a wee bit cheesy, but I like it.
29:56Oh, go on.
29:56I've got sheet music, and it's to the line of the Michael Buble song,
30:00I Just Haven't Met You Yet.
30:01Oh!
30:02So, underneath...
30:03Oh, my God!
30:04Underneath it says,
30:05when words fail, music speaks.
30:08So, the idea is whenever I do eventually meet her,
30:10her name will hopefully go underneath.
30:12Really?
30:13Yeah, so then I have met her yet.
30:15That's why I'm here.
30:15I want to kind of have that permanent feature on me,
30:19because whenever I do have it on, it's not changing.
30:22I don't want it to come off.
30:23I don't want it to come off.
30:26Oh, I had a question.
30:27How important is intimacy?
30:29So, for me, it's probably one of the most important things
30:32that needs to kind of be there.
30:34Mm.
30:35Like, for me, it's like, I want to be with you
30:37and want to rip your clothes off all the time.
30:39LAUGHTER
30:41Whenever I tuck in the bed, I like being a little spoon.
30:44Yeah.
30:45In the morning, I like waking up and turning into you
30:48and having you as the little spoon then.
30:50And then you can pull me in close.
30:52I could pull you in close, and then, yeah, possibly on a date night.
30:55Possibly on Saturday date night?
30:57Yeah.
30:58Oh!
30:59I may have got a little outfit ready.
31:02I was going to ask you, would you come to a country concert with me?
31:04So, I'd love to do that with you.
31:05We get our cowboy boots on.
31:06I've not got a pair of cowboy boots. Have you?
31:09Um, yes, I do.
31:10Yeah, yeah.
31:11So, I had a Sergeant's Mess do last month.
31:14OK.
31:14And it was cowboy-themed.
31:15Oh!
31:16I'm usually the only single one there.
31:18I would love to have you by my side in a sexy dress,
31:21be your cowboy-girl boots on.
31:22Are you going to lasso me into the dance floor with you?
31:24Oh, 100%. Would you come up with me?
31:25I'd want to be there to be like,
31:27that's my guy, that's my husband.
31:29Like, look at him and what he's achieved and where we are.
31:33Like, yes.
31:34And the fact that I love the military as well,
31:36it's just a win-win.
31:37I want to help polish your boots.
31:39I feel we've got chemistry from the off,
31:48and I'm just falling for day by day.
31:57But I don't want to jump the gun too quickly,
31:59because I need to make sure this is 100% right.
32:01I want my next marriage to last forever.
32:05I do want to be 100% sure before I actually make any kind of leap.
32:13How was it?
32:14Oh, God!
32:16Oh, my head's just everywhere, isn't it?
32:18But I can't believe I've got chemistry with someone sexually for a wall.
32:22What is that?
32:23I'm going to be back.
32:25I'm glad I've seen who I've seen today.
32:27Nice. I'm glad it's mutual.
32:28Yeah.
32:28You know, you don't ever know.
32:29You never know.
32:30You?
32:31Like, I've got very good vibes from Kieran.
32:34But more to see, more to hear.
32:36More to see, more to hear, more to learn.
32:40Big one for me, this. Come on.
32:43Navigating the connections is very stressful,
32:46because I'm having to think about things I've probably never thought about,
32:50and it's mind-boggling. That's what it is. It's mind-boggling.
32:54I feel love. I feel love with it.
32:58In the first date with Sophie, she was the standout, um, just ticks all the boxes.
33:05With Megan, I think we're still figuring each other out a little bit,
33:08but everything I've got so far has been amazing.
33:12Hello.
33:13Hi, Kieran.
33:14Which is why I'm just trying to stay open-minded, trust the process,
33:19and, you know, see where I end up. How could I give you butterflies?
33:25Like, what would make you go, oh, my God, bloody love him?
33:28Gives me butterflies.
33:30For me, love an ear kiss.
33:32Yeah, I'm the same. Like, I feel like anywhere in, like, that region,
33:34like, neck, ear, area, it just gets you going.
33:38It's like, oh, like, it goes through your body.
33:40Yeah.
33:40I feel, like, really good eye contact.
33:42Yeah, like, oh, that is up there for me.
33:44Is it?
33:45Like, biggest turn on.
33:46Like, before and during, like, for sure, like, that's...
33:50That's 100%.
33:52No words need to be exchanged.
33:54I'm giving you them now.
33:55Yeah, so I'm giving you them now.
33:59I'm hoping you're getting the message.
34:01I am. I'm feeling a little bit hot here, actually.
34:03Are you?
34:04I might have to have a little walk around and shake this off.
34:06Yeah, have a little stroll. Walk it off.
34:09Are you a cuddler?
34:10Yes, I do love cuddling.
34:12I'm a very hot person.
34:14Okay.
34:15So if it's summer and we're warm, we're going to be sticking to each other.
34:18I can get over it.
34:19Like, I can't lie, I'm quite a sweaty person.
34:21Yeah, so am I.
34:23This is great.
34:23So we'll just be slipping off each other.
34:26And we're sweating everywhere.
34:29Because that's us.
34:30Because that's us.
34:30Slipping all over each other.
34:31Right, stop it.
34:32Slipping and sliding.
34:33Stop it.
34:33Stop it.
34:34Stop it.
34:37Okay, that's enough, I think, for today.
34:39That's enough.
34:39That's enough for today.
34:40That's enough for today.
34:41I'm very satisfied.
34:44Okay, that's good.
34:44Very satisfied.
34:47I was going to write slippery next to your name.
34:53The date with Megan was amazing.
34:55I'm very pleasantly surprised.
34:58Physical intimacy is like a huge part of a relationship,
35:01in my opinion.
35:03And with Megan, I really could feel a lot of sexual tension through the wall, which is weird.
35:10But I have a strong connection with Sophie.
35:16Hello?
35:17Hello?
35:17Hello?
35:18Sophie!
35:19Kieran!
35:20There is just a real attraction.
35:23One question I wanted to ask you was, how would I give you butterflies?
35:28Passion, I'd say.
35:29You're going to have to go more than that.
35:31I'm sorry, I'm not accepting that.
35:32Why?
35:33I need more.
35:33Why do you need more?
35:35Like, how am I showing that?
35:38Well, you can start with kissing me, and then everything else will lead to where it's supposed to.
35:45You do not want to give detail, do you?
35:47I just feel like if you get in one knee, I don't think you'll be disappointed, babe.
35:53Like, you're good on, like, this aspect.
35:56Yeah, it's a big one for me.
35:58I feel like we're sorted then.
36:01We're fine, aren't we?
36:01What more do you need to know, Kieran?
36:04Sorted.
36:05Shall we shake hands?
36:07Um, shaking hands is very formal.
36:09Right, that felt like quite a business deal, that one.
36:13Shut up, Kieran.
36:16You'll be fine.
36:18Show it my hand and just be happy.
36:20Yeah, pretty much.
36:23Deal.
36:24Business done.
36:28One of my biggest fears is falling in love, letting someone see every element of you,
36:34and ultimately deciding that that's not enough.
36:36See you later.
36:37Bye.
36:39I don't deal with rejection very well.
36:41I also don't put myself in positions to be rejected.
36:44And I don't know if there's anyone truly in my life, apart from my dad, I've ever let
36:48see all of me.
36:49I've always held something back.
36:51Because I'm so scared of being heartbroken that I self-sabotage.
36:55So, if I don't show them all of me, then it's okay if I'm not enough for them.
36:59Because, jokes on them, they didn't see this side of me.
37:03I've had Megan, Sophie, like...
37:06Back and forth, back and forth.
37:07But you've got to start making...
37:09You've got to...
37:09I can't...
37:11Do you know what I mean?
37:11I've got to start doing something.
37:12Oh, good luck, babe.
37:21Thank you so much.
37:22Out in the way...
37:25With Sarova, it's definitely bubbling.
37:26Thinking about her a lot.
37:28Can't wait to see her.
37:28And I feel like when you've got that exciting feeling in your stomach about seeing someone,
37:32it is a good sign that you do like them.
37:33There is some...
37:34Possibly something more, though.
37:35Hello, hello.
37:36Oh, hi.
37:36How are you today?
37:38She just seems like a really nice, kind, sweet person.
37:41And that's, like, top traits that I look for in a girl.
37:44Are you good with change?
37:46Change does make me uncomfortable.
37:48And I've always actually struggled a bit with change.
37:51Yeah.
37:52I'm quite routine, so I would say I used to be the same.
37:56But I feel like I'm good with stress anyway.
37:57So, like, if unexpected situations come up, I'm okay with handling them.
38:01That's good, whereas I get a bit heightened in stressful situations.
38:04I'll calm you down, don't worry.
38:06Yeah. That may be needed.
38:09Because, like, at points in my life, I've nearly lost, like, both my brothers.
38:13Oh, my God.
38:14My oldest brother, he was in the Royal Marines.
38:16He served in Afghanistan.
38:17Wow.
38:18And I think I was, like, 14 at the time.
38:19And one day, we just got a phone call saying he'd been shot.
38:22Oh, my God.
38:23Obviously, when you first hear that, you think the worst and think something, like,
38:27thinking, how bad is it? Is he dead?
38:29But luckily, it was okay.
38:32Took a bullet.
38:33So lucky, like, a few inches either way.
38:35Could have probably killed him.
38:36And then my other brother, he's been to rehab.
38:39And he had a drink and substance addiction for, like, most of his adult life.
38:44That's awful to hear.
38:46And could never hold a job down.
38:48It was when I was in Dubai.
38:50But somehow, some way, he checked himself into rehab, got himself clean.
38:53And, like, within, like, 12 months of coming out of there, he phoned his wife and got married.
38:59And has completely turned his life around.
39:00And now he's, like, two years sober.
39:02Wow.
39:03Good.
39:03Honestly, that's amazing on him.
39:05I know.
39:06It's just...
39:06That's incredible.
39:07It's honest.
39:08I genuinely didn't think it would ever happen just because of the things he was doing.
39:11It's like...
39:12Yeah, because the track he was on, the journey, the path he was on.
39:15Is it, like, you're too far gone?
39:16Would have never listened to reason?
39:18And, like, I've never had anything like that.
39:19I feel like I'm lucky, like, because seeing the things they've gone through and then come out
39:23the other side and they're still, like...
39:25They're still themselves.
39:26They've still got through it.
39:27They're still very much themselves.
39:28It's not changed them at all.
39:29They're still the same people.
39:30Oh, that's amazing.
39:32Thank you for sharing, Dave.
39:33It's all right.
39:33I wanted to.
39:35Just being open, talking so much, I realise how much I'm resonating and being drawn into certain
39:40things you're saying and building on what we're building here is...
39:45Amazing.
39:45Yeah, good and glad that it's the same for both of us.
39:48Yeah.
39:54Cal is a super sweet, emotional person.
39:57I feel that's very rare to find in a guy.
40:03There's no sort of topics that have been off limits.
40:06He's been vulnerable as well, which is really sweet.
40:08And to hear a guy actually get emotional about his family, that was beautiful.
40:15It's almost like you just wanted to go through the wall and give him a hug.
40:19So, it's really...
40:20He's a really sweet guy.
40:21On the other side, you'll be mine.
40:34Do you guys want a hot drink?
40:35Ashley's making some.
40:36I'm brewing teas.
40:38Oh, do you know what?
40:39Chocolate.
40:39She's such an air hostess.
40:40Such an air hostess.
40:41Tea or coffee.
40:43Hot honey, lemon.
40:45Anything from the bar.
40:47Really want to see Ashley.
40:49I like Ashley, she's a good girl.
40:50Yeah.
40:50No, it's definitely...
40:51I'm so confident as well.
40:52Ashley has been one of my strongest connections, but there's a few things going around in my head
40:57and there's a few things I still need to consider.
41:00I want to kind of dig a wee bit deeper with her and see how that goes.
41:02Things are going really well with Billy and I.
41:11When I'm with Billy on dates, I can picture us together.
41:15Hello.
41:15Hi, Billy.
41:16Ashley, how are you?
41:18Oh, glad to be talking to you again.
41:20Yeah, and you too.
41:21I have developed a deep connection, something I've not experienced before in my life.
41:28You kind of touched on, like, are you a big Irish family?
41:31What's the set-up look like at home?
41:32Are you on your own?
41:33My family mean everything to me.
41:35Yeah.
41:35My dad was my first role model I've ever looked up to, and he will forever be my...
41:42Why do you get emotional with the silliest little things?
41:44Oh, Billy, it's okay.
41:46You, like, let it out.
41:50You know when you don't say stuff out loud, but then whenever it comes out, it's, oh, man.
41:56Over the last couple of years, he's had, like, a few injuries and stuff,
41:58and, um, and he was in a real bad way.
42:01It's been difficult for him, that man, the whole family, but he's on the mend now.
42:05But I don't know, whenever you're a kid, he's Superman.
42:08Oh.
42:10Um, yeah.
42:11I'm giving you a big hug, Billy, right now.
42:13Oh, thank you.
42:14I'm passing you a tissue, giving you a big hug and a kiss.
42:16My family mean everything to me.
42:18Oh.
42:18Right, I want to know more about you before I start sobbing even more.
42:21Oh, my God, no, I love it.
42:23Back on track, tell me about, tell me about your family.
42:26Mum and dad, yeah, sort of split up when I was sort of 16-ish, and I really, yeah,
42:33saw their relationship break down.
42:36Yeah.
42:36Really quickly, I felt, like, as the eldest child, that I had to become the provider.
42:43Yeah.
42:43I kind of took on the leader role, like, the supporter role for my mum and sisters,
42:49and I've kind of got on the bills really quickly at a young age of 16, like, starting to pay for rent.
42:55Yeah, it was a lot.
42:57So I really want someone who brings and looks after me, because I've always looked after others.
43:03All I want is to be loved for who I am and to find real happiness in this relationship.
43:10I found it in myself, and I found it in my career, but I've not found happiness, real happiness,
43:15Billy, if I'm being honest, in an intimate partner.
43:18I could relate on every level.
43:21I haven't really asked you much about your job ever, really.
43:23What led you to become Cabin Crew?
43:26So I've done it for, um, nine, ten, about 11 years, worked for two different companies.
43:31Would you ever, like, have you ever considered any of our jobs, or would you consider?
43:36Yeah, I have, yeah.
43:37I think at the moment, Crew is right for me, because I'm single, and I'm,
43:40I haven't got any family to worry about, and I can gel.
43:46Ashley is amazing.
43:47When I go into a room with her, we connect on multiple levels.
43:52Bye, Billy. See you soon.
43:54And then when we're talking about the future, it just, it keeps lingering in my mind that she's Cabin Crew.
43:59It does make me a little bit nervous. I have dated Cabin Crew in the past, and it's not worked out.
44:08Our jobs just don't align. She's going to be away for long periods of time.
44:13I don't want a marriage where we live in separate lives.
44:15Hey, it's been fun today. Good. It's been fun, fun, fun.
44:19I'm glad.
44:20Good one, Billy.
44:31We've had, like, a lot of nice chats, and you're having some really nice ones,
44:33but there's some, like, you don't want it to end.
44:35That's the difference between, like, it's nice, or I'm staying in here for another three hours.
44:39Yeah. That is a good sign. That's what you want. That's the spleen right there.
44:42Yeah.
44:46Patrick is mad cool.
44:48Yeah. Patrick is a vibe.
44:50That's good. Patrick is a vibe.
44:56My mum thinks my love life is terrible.
44:59That's why I'm here.
45:00Constantly performing at weddings is a fun experience.
45:04However, when I do sing at the ceremonies, it is a little bit bittersweet.
45:10Good luck.
45:11You're watching these brides walk down the aisle,
45:13and then you're watching the grooms look at their bride with so much love,
45:16and it's like, oh, my gosh, when is that going to be me?
45:18And I'm singing, like, what is it going to be?
45:22Hi. Hello.
45:25At the back of my head, when is it going to be me?
45:27You know, but hopefully soon.
45:29Patrick.
45:30Yes, Patrick. Wait, is this Anu?
45:31Yeah, baby.
45:34How are you?
45:35I'm good. How are you?
45:37Not too bad, thank you.
45:38Shall we get into the nitty-gritty?
45:39Paint me a picture of your childhood.
45:41Let me take you way back to little old Patrick, my Jamaican mum, my Nigerian dad.
45:49Wow, that's mad, because Nigerians are strict.
45:51And I think Jamaicans are a bit more freer.
45:53Wow. You've literally painted my entire childhood together.
45:58Are you joking?
46:00You've done it. There's no point.
46:00That's a joke.
46:01No, but obviously, because I'm obviously Nigerian.
46:04Yeah, yeah.
46:04Did I tell you that?
46:05Actually, you didn't, but I kind of gathered, actually.
46:08Oh, how?
46:09West African.
46:10How did you gather?
46:11Your name, but I didn't know which country.
46:13You give me that vibe, that flair, that flavour.
46:15That's not like...
46:16That Nigerian flavour.
46:17Come on, come on. You know how it is.
46:22Anyway, so come on.
46:23Childhood of your childhood.
46:23Yeah, paint me a picture of your childhood.
46:24So basically, my dad, as you know, Nigerians are very strict.
46:29Was he Christian then?
46:30Yeah, he was Christian, he was Christian.
46:31And what was your mum?
46:33I mean, she's Christian as well, but like you mentioned, she's completely open to anything.
46:37She's not strict whatsoever.
46:39So are you happy that you had that upbringing or not really?
46:42Absolutely. I wouldn't change it, you know.
46:43I would not change a thing because this basically led me to where I am right now, you know.
46:48I don't know if I've told you, yeah, my mum was an immigrant.
46:50Yeah.
46:50And she came from Nigeria with nothing.
46:54And then now she like owns a house and works for the government.
46:56Incredible.
46:57Do you know what I mean?
46:58And like, and she's got three daughters that are educated and have businesses earning really well.
47:04What a blessing.
47:04And have kids.
47:05Do you get what I mean?
47:06Fun fact for you though, I did a year in Nigeria, so...
47:09What age?
47:10I think I was 12, so year seven.
47:13My mum obviously went to school in Nigeria.
47:14She said, oh, it was hard.
47:16Yeah.
47:16They had to make their own beds, they had to fetch their own water.
47:18100%.
47:19You know how it is?
47:19I did that.
47:20Yeah, but they had to fetch their own like shower water from like the village or stuff.
47:23I did that too.
47:24Oh, is it?
47:28Honestly, you're so much fun.
47:29You've given me so much energy.
47:30You are someone who is very special.
47:32Indeed.
47:32100% I can tell.
47:33Oh, that's Patrick.
47:35Are you getting on one knee?
47:38I might do, you know.
47:39Listen, no matter what for me, I'm going to definitely go on my feeling for any situation.
47:44So, I will always trust my spleen.
47:46You know, I'm going to go with my feelings.
47:48Oh, yeah, you're splendid.
47:48What was it?
47:49Splendic awareness, yeah.
47:50You're the only one that seems to be like quite spiritual.
47:53I believe in a lot of things, honestly.
47:55I believe in love.
47:56How about that?
47:57Okay, yeah.
47:58Well, I hope so.
47:59That's why we're here, Sho.
48:04Anu, wow.
48:04She's very abundant.
48:05She is actually super open-minded and she's super spiritual.
48:09Oh, that was really nice.
48:11Anu, you're amazing.
48:12Oh.
48:14She gives me such fiery energy.
48:17There's definitely an emotional connection there for sure.
48:21That is definitely something that is new to me and I definitely want to explore how that makes me feel long term.
48:27Yeah, this girl's great.
48:28Yeah?
48:29Yeah, she's great.
48:35You lost yourself in a dozen ways
48:40Just trying to keep up with the past and stay
48:44I dropped my ring.
48:45She's getting her man dance.
48:46She's getting her man dance.
48:48She's getting her man dance.
48:49All right, let's find her husband.
48:54Let's get it, boys.
48:55Let's do this.
48:59I like the way Cal makes me feel.
49:01I like the way that Cal makes me laugh.
49:03Good morning.
49:04Hello.
49:05I feel like I can get super open and vulnerable.
49:08Very much looking forward to this day.
49:10I'm glad.
49:12Honestly, that Wigan accent just gets me.
49:14I'd tell you about your childhood because I'd love to tell you about mine after hearing about yours.
49:18I had a very happy childhood, very loving.
49:22It's just the sad aspect of it is my parents divorced about eight years ago and Christmas is
49:28like one of my biggest things and we always have such an intimate family Christmas.
49:32It would just be the five of us at home and now it's like, you know, you split it between
49:36your parents and I miss that and I think to have that was beautiful, but then to not have that.
49:43It's like Christmas, your favorite childhood memories being around the dinner table and stuff.
49:47Yeah, it's me, my mum, my dad, my sisters.
49:51We're playing our board game, just us all being together, like that family unit.
49:58We've never like, oh God, we haven't had that obviously after they divorced.
50:04So like, yeah, so like, that for me was so special because we didn't like get that again afterwards,
50:17if that makes sense.
50:18Yeah.
50:19Yeah, yeah, I want my kids to have that.
50:23But on the plus side, you've got your, you've got your own future family Christmas things to look forward to.
50:28This is what makes me so excited to have a family unit going forward is that we can create that again.
50:34Yeah, I feel like you're a 10 out of 10 on family values and all from what I'm hearing so far.
50:38I feel like I've had maybe a somewhat similar childhood to you because grew up happy, didn't have much,
50:43but we didn't want for anything. And then my mum and dad divorced when I was around 18.
50:47I think it was my first year at uni.
50:49Exactly the same time as me.
50:50Yeah, that's mad.
50:53Everything's fine. We stayed with my mum, my dad moved away.
50:56And do you get to see your dad much? Or is it a bit more that because he's...
51:00Well, he lives in Dubai now. So when I was living there, I got to see him, see him more.
51:03And we did connect a bit more. But since I've been back, well, it'll be like a message every
51:07few weeks or something or a voice note.
51:10Yeah. Were your parents born here?
51:13My mum's English. And then my dad, he's from Pakistan.
51:15Got the Muslim side of their family. I've got the Christian side of their family.
51:18Oh, wow. My background heritage is Indian.
51:23I didn't know that, but I was going to ask.
51:24Oh, did you not?
51:25Well, hey, this could be a conflict, you know. I'm half Pakistani. Will your family
51:30definitely accept me?
51:31That's the thing, because I know it's true. Indians and...
51:34Yeah, but listen, we can bridge the gap. We can mend their peace.
51:38Are we just going to sort of solve history?
51:40Yeah.
51:42I've come here to find love, definitely. And I wouldn't ever expect to find it in Sarova.
51:48She's got Indian heritage. I've got Pakistani heritage. And like, historically, like,
51:52there's been conflict and a massive divide between India and Pakistan. 10, 15 years ago,
51:56me and her probably wouldn't even be in having a conversation.
52:01Especially with the older generation, I know from experience, a parent with an Indian daughter would
52:06not want them dating a half Pakistani or Pakistani guy. Like, they just did not get on.
52:10Where is Cal from, though?
52:14Er, he's in Wigan.
52:15But someone told me that he's half, he might be Pakistani.
52:17He's half Pakistani.
52:19And half what?
52:19He's half Pakistani, half English. And in terms of history, basically,
52:23India and Pakistan, it's a massive...
52:24No!
52:25Yeah. No go.
52:28Did you speak about that?
52:30Yeah.
52:30How did you?
52:30Because he goes, are we okay to be sat here talking together?
52:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
52:35Um, so, yeah.
52:44Oh, look at someone I'm looking forward to seeing, particularly. I don't know why.
52:48I think yesterday they just left a little imprint on me.
52:50Yeah.
52:50Oh, what, you went to bed thinking about them?
52:52I went to bed thinking about them.
52:53Amazing.
52:54And here we are today.
52:55I feel a little bit red.
52:57Obviously, keeping it PG.
52:59I do feel really strongly for Billie.
53:02I've never felt like this before.
53:04I'm all jittery.
53:05I'm all like, ah!
53:06Like, trying to put my hands on my feet today.
53:08I feel a little bit looser today.
53:10I've let a bit more out.
53:11Yay!
53:12I just really like Billie.
53:15Really like Billie.
53:21Ash, was, like, a clear winner?
53:23Yeah.
53:23And now?
53:24And now she's still up there, but it's just a hell of a lot harder.
53:28Yeah.
53:29With Ashley being cabin crew, I think I've been very much on the fence back and forth.
53:33I've been undecided, but I do have my reservations.
53:39It's hard, man.
53:40I've come from a failed marriage.
53:42I want my next marriage to last forever.
53:44I don't want to hurt her either.
53:45I don't know if that's what is driving me nuts.
53:49My head's all messed up.
53:50It is still on my mind, and it is something that could impact my decision.
54:01I don't know.
54:18Hello.
54:18Hi, Billie.
54:23How are you today?
54:25I'm really excited.
54:26I've dressed up for you.
54:28I have thought about you a lot.
54:29So, I loved our first tapes.
54:37Totally.
54:39But I think there comes a time where you have to kind of be honest to people.
54:44Hold on.
54:46Hold on.
