00:00Previously...
00:01Oh, here we go, we're in business.
00:02Three brave singles had to pick between just two love matches.
00:06Who shall I choose?
00:08One based on their usual wants and desires.
00:11She definitely seems like a girl I would have got with.
00:13The other on their deeper romantic needs.
00:16They always say the nice guy finishes last,
00:18but the nice guy's gonna finish first this time.
00:20Blind dates with their chosen match...
00:22Hey!
00:23...went better for some...
00:24There was not a single part of that date that I didn't enjoy.
00:27...than others.
00:28I am actually disappointed.
00:31Now.
00:32Dating now is really difficult.
00:33It's a minefield out there.
00:35Three more hopefuls...
00:36I'm ready to commit to someone.
00:38...will face the same dilemma.
00:40They both seem very different, but this is all through text.
00:43Choosing one of two expertly chosen matches...
00:46I'm excited for the first moment to see her.
00:48Hello.
00:48Danica.
00:49All six will be taking the bold step of moving in
00:52with their new love interest.
00:54Cheers.
00:55But what neither of the singles nor their new matches are expecting
00:59is the explosive love triangle twist.
01:06The other girl just texted me.
01:08Oh, my God!
01:16Oh, yes!
01:19Having met just once on a blind date...
01:22Oh, my God!
01:23...today, three of the singles are taking a leap into the unknown...
01:26Wow.
01:27Look at this dumb.
01:29...by moving in with their chosen matches.
01:31Now I'm getting nervous!
01:33Hello!
01:33Hello!
01:34Hello!
01:35Hello!
01:36Hello!
01:36Hello!
01:37Hello!
01:38Hello!
01:39Hello!
01:40Oh, come on!
01:41The strongest women in the world!
01:42Hey!
01:43Oh, baby gems!
01:44Look at that!
01:45In choosing Brodie, Lloyd went for his usual fun flirty type.
01:48Hello!
01:49But their blind date got off to a rocky start.
01:52Blind date got off to a rocky start.
01:54If I saw Brodie on a dating app, to be honest, I would not match with her.
02:00What is it you do?
02:01Uh, full-time DJ.
02:02DJ!
02:03So, wait, have you got loads of people then when you've been away?
02:06So, approximately 300.
02:08Oh, ****!
02:09Oh, my God!
02:11Massive, massive red flags.
02:12As the night went on...
02:14Cheers to a good night.
02:15...things got less frosty.
02:17I think our energies match.
02:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:19100%.
02:20I felt no, and then I felt yes.
02:22Put a spell on you!
02:24I do feel like I need to explore it more to see, kind of, what happens, you know?
02:30Oh!
02:31No, it's not a bit.
02:32Hey!
02:33Yay!
02:35Hopefully, Brodie will be up for sharing a bed with me,
02:38because that would be most normal when you're living together with someone.
02:42What side of the bed do you like to sleep on?
02:44Um...
02:48So, the bedroom situation was awkward.
02:50Do you think we should be steering the same bed?
02:53Yeah.
02:54Hmm, interesting.
02:58You're supposed to be the wifey.
02:59Yeah, yeah.
03:00And I'm supposed to be the man on the house.
03:03Oh, right.
03:05I'm shocked that he's not able to read that I'm like,
03:09hmm, maybe not a bit too soon, you know?
03:11For me, like, I'm just not ready to share the same bed.
03:15That's just how I feel.
03:17I hope, like, you are, like, cool with that.
03:19I'm not saying no forever.
03:21I'm just like...
03:22You know what I mean?
03:23Okay, let me show you to your room.
03:24Oh, yeah!
03:26As long as it's nice.
03:27Yeah, look, it's even lower in the ceiling here.
03:29Oh, it's made for small people!
03:31Oh, my God, it's so cute, isn't it?
03:34You're happy, yeah?
03:35Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:36Yes!
03:37Yeah.
03:38I really hope you don't take offense at that, by the way.
03:39I really don't mean that in, like...
03:41Do you know what I mean?
03:42I'm not, like, shutting it down.
03:43I just, like, feel...
03:44Do you know what I mean?
03:45There's even more bouts in the bed here.
03:46Yeah, exactly.
03:47Imagine the things you could do.
03:48Yeah, I imagine.
03:49Can you hear that?
03:50Yeah, I can hear that.
03:51Mm-hmm.
03:53So, I feel like he's given off, like,
03:54man-of-the-house Tarzan vibes.
03:56I mean, read a room.
03:58When we do eventually sleep in the same bed...
04:01Oh, right, OK.
04:02It doesn't mean I want to shag.
04:04OK.
04:05So, you know.
04:06OK, thanks for clearing that up.
04:10If she wants to be alone, then I'll let her do that.
04:13Whee!
04:17Oh, you are one lucky lady, you know?
04:19Instant ache when people check themselves out in the mirror.
04:23Did you just twerk your perks at me?
04:25Oh.
04:26Did I just do that?
04:27Yeah, you just did that.
04:28You didn't even realize you were doing it.
04:29Oh, yeah, it just happens.
04:30Yeah.
04:31That's interesting.
04:32Well, does it turn you on?
04:33No.
04:34No, don't ever do that, man.
04:36It's turning you on right now.
04:38You're getting a little moist here, eh?
04:40Solid.
04:41I can feel the heat.
04:44So, for the record, and for the avoidance of doubt,
04:47my vagina is dry at the moment.
04:50Very, very dry.
04:51Don't ever do that again.
04:52Ugh!
04:58Knock, knock.
04:59Come in.
05:01Hi.
05:02Oh, you look all snug.
05:03Yeah.
05:04You look like you literally live here.
05:05I do.
05:06After favouring Mark Owen impersonator Matt
05:09over her usual bad boy type...
05:12Hi.
05:13Hey.
05:14Jasmine's first impressions...
05:16He's not what I pictured.
05:17If I saw him across the bar, I don't think I would go over there.
05:21...got things off to a shaky start.
05:23I was in a Take That tribute band.
05:25What are you called?
05:26Rule the World.
05:27It's not like one of the cheesy names.
05:29I was going to say take twat.
05:30That would have been really funny.
05:32But Matt's softer side won Jasmine over.
05:35So, do I have something I need to tell you before we actually live together?
05:37Basically, my hand looks like that.
05:38You didn't need to tell me, but I appreciate that.
05:40No, I just didn't.
05:41I did.
05:42Because, yeah.
05:43I did.
05:44He's not my usual type.
05:46I have gone different, but different is good.
05:48We like different.
05:50This is insane.
05:52Yeah, I know.
05:53I'm glad you feel the same.
05:55Are these real books?
05:56Touch the books. Touch the books.
05:58Touch the books.
05:59Touch the books.
06:00I'm really excited.
06:01I definitely feel like I've made the right decision with Matt.
06:03So, no water fights, no food fights, no slip and slide.
06:06No movement.
06:07No, I know.
06:08Have you ever done a slip and slide?
06:09What's it called?
06:10Slip and slide.
06:11Not slip inside.
06:12No.
06:13You can't be funnier than me.
06:14No.
06:15Don't do that.
06:16Don't do that.
06:17You can be the funny one.
06:18That's fine.
06:19Okay.
06:20Let's look at the rooms.
06:21Regarding the bedroom situation, I feel like I'm going to try and be a gentleman
06:25and suggest that there's no pressure for anything.
06:27Just take things slow.
06:28So, yeah, this is definitely going to be yours then because he's got the bath.
06:32No.
06:33It's up to you.
06:34Yeah.
06:35I don't mind.
06:36As long as I get to use it.
06:37Baby.
06:38I'll schedule you in.
06:40For a bath.
06:41Once a week.
06:42We really did bounce off of each other.
06:43Because at first I was like, he's really sweet and really nervous and a little bit shy
06:46and...
06:47But I don't think he is.
06:48I think he does have a bit of something about him.
06:50And I quite like that.
06:51Cheers.
06:52Take that.
06:53Take that.
06:54I'm starting to see that there's this other side to jazz.
06:59It makes her even more endearing and attractive.
07:03And, yeah, I would say that I fancy her.
07:07But I feel like I should not say that at this stage, but I keep saying it, so I've just
07:11got to own it.
07:12Yeah.
07:13I fancy her.
07:14I'm pissed now.
07:15To the bedroom!
07:16I'm joking.
07:17You're not.
07:18Oh, hey!
07:19This isn't all your stuff, is it?
07:20Yeah.
07:21Mike!
07:22I didn't think we'd be wearing that many clothes!
07:37Wanting to settle down, Mike picked Kelly from his two love matches.
07:42Hey.
07:43Hey!
07:45It was instant attraction.
07:47You look amazing.
07:48So do you.
07:49So do you.
07:50I'm glad that we're matching.
07:51I mean, she's absolutely gorgeous, like a stunner.
07:53It was followed by the perfect blind date.
07:56You've got big hands.
07:58Look!
08:00He is very sexy.
08:02One can only hope that he's all in proportion.
08:12I don't think the first date could have gone any better.
08:14What's next after the kiss?
08:16Who knows?
08:17You're just going to have to watch and find out.
08:21It's good to see you.
08:23Oh, my God, you smell amazing.
08:24The move today, I was so excited.
08:27I couldn't wait to just see Mike again.
08:29You look nice.
08:30So you.
08:31I can't stop smiling.
08:33It's really embarrassing.
08:34There's a dressing room.
08:36Wow.
08:39Is the bed long enough?
08:43No.
08:44Oh, my God.
08:47So good, right?
08:48This is amazing.
08:49Yeah, the bedroom situation.
08:52I'm a gentleman, right?
08:58The ball is in her court.
09:01I kind of think that we should maybe, like, go into this experiment thing properly.
09:09We're sharing a space.
09:10We'll get to know each other better.
09:11Yeah.
09:12We might as well dive right in.
09:13Yeah.
09:14See how it goes.
09:15Yeah.
09:16So when we talk to you tomorrow morning.
09:19And I'm walking funny because he's got a size 15 feet.
09:23Oh, God.
09:24Okay.
09:25Deal.
09:26Done.
09:27Settled.
09:28High five.
09:29I might be a little bit happy.
09:34She said she wanted to share a bed.
09:36Oh, if you ever lose me, this is where I'll be.
09:39Yeah.
09:40You know, why do it, you know, half-heartedly?
09:42Let's go full throttle.
09:44Oh, lovely.
09:46If you put me in a kitchen without a chocolate, like, I can't keep my hands off it.
09:50So what am I going to do in a bed next to him?
09:53Lovely job night.
09:54Oh, my goodness.
09:55Let's just do this now.
09:56Oh.
09:57Ah!
09:58I knew that was your game.
10:00Yeah.
10:01We're in that one.
10:02Can't trust you in the dark.
10:03All right.
10:14On a Sunday, when you're a bit hanging, it is a little bit lonely.
10:18That's when you go on the dating app, like, no, no, no.
10:22Zara Lina.
10:23You don't even need to be on a dating app to get dick pics now.
10:26I get them on Instagram.
10:27I get them on Facebook.
10:28I get them everywhere.
10:29Danika.
10:30I don't know how it's going to go, but I'm going to try.
10:32And Dan.
10:33I think it takes, like, one or two dates before I know I'm probably going to fall in love with them.
10:36Are the next three singles to enter the love triangle experiment.
10:40Do you actually see my hope earrings?
10:42Sorry, you're laughing at me.
10:44In two days, they'll pick one of two love matches, but must get to know them via text only.
10:50No pictures or visual clues allowed.
10:53Going on a date having not met them yet is wild.
10:57First to make her momentous decision is 31-year-old businesswoman Zara Lina.
11:03Hell yeah, I'm a boss bitch.
11:06I like to stand out.
11:12I'm very independent.
11:14I run my own business.
11:15I'm successful at anything I put my mind to.
11:18My dad, I mean, is incredible.
11:20He got an OBE.
11:21He's just a genius.
11:23But growing up, he was always very much on his phone, very much on his laptop.
11:27Even though now I'm quite entrepreneurial, I don't want that life for me.
11:31I don't want to be constantly working.
11:33But I'll never live off a man, ever.
11:36I like to have my own independence, which is probably why I always go for a younger guy.
11:41Young, dumb and living off a mum.
11:44How would you describe your sex life?
11:47At the moment, it's very dull.
11:49Normally, I have a very high sex drive.
11:54Sorry, everyone.
11:56I'm such a cougar.
11:59Going forward, it'd be ideal to have someone that's more mature, got their financial independence.
12:08Just someone that I respect, and that respects me.
12:13Lockdown was definitely a life-changing period for me.
12:19I actually lost all my hair to stress, so it did put a massive strain on my relationship at the time.
12:25You know, it stripped my identity completely.
12:30It challenged every aspect of my life.
12:34Out of that, I decided to launch my own cosmetics range,
12:38which helps people that have hair loss like myself get their identity back.
12:43When someone meets me, they don't know that I'm going to look different every single day.
12:47But for me, I need someone that really loves me for me.
12:50I'm on treatment now, which is why I've got my hair.
12:54But if I ever want to have a baby, all this treatment, it would stop.
12:58I've got to then go through that exact same process of losing my hair again.
13:02So I have to make sure with the next person, they're prepared for what may happen in the future.
13:07There's no better time, really. I'm 31, and I would love to have a family of my own.
13:16I'm definitely at a stage where I'm ready to love again.
13:20Zara Lina has been matched with fun young Yorkshireman Lloyd and property developer Simon from Merseyside.
13:30One's her usual mid-twenties type, the other is what she needs.
13:35Older and more her equal in terms of age and entrepreneurial ambition.
13:41Are you going to find it hard to try and figure out what the person's like?
13:44No, I'm quite good at reading people.
13:46Zara Lina has just 48 hours to choose between Lloyd and Simon
13:51before they meet on a blind date and move in together.
13:55I literally cannot tell you how nervous I'm feeling right now.
13:58Simon.
14:05Just give you a little head massage whilst we're waiting for this reply.
14:12A lot of guys normally go, yeah, I like blondes or I like brunettes,
14:15and I'm like, well, I can be everything.
14:21Looks to me are important, but personality is probably the most important thing.
14:24Okay, it's good chat, yeah, it's good chat.
14:28I absolutely work to live so that I can do okay for myself,
14:33so that I can enjoy other aspects of life.
14:35I like that.
14:40The best thing that I bring to a relationship, I think, is loyalty, security,
14:43and I can have good fun.
14:45He is more mature, has his independence.
14:48Pretty easy to get along with.
14:50I think I'm the joys I live with.
14:55Okay, so my second person's Lloyd.
14:57I'm going to start this one off a bit differently.
15:04Normally I wouldn't be this forward, like, asking questions like that,
15:07but that's what you've got to do in this situation.
15:09I love that kind of, like, cheeky banter.
15:19Sex is very important for me.
15:20Quite spontaneous for sex.
15:21I like to move around and explore the room, explore the house, explore wherever we are.
15:26I think Lloyd will be similar to my usual choice.
15:30He's my type.
15:31Bit of a naughty boy, let's say it, like, cheeky.
15:35I would like to think I'm a catch.
15:37I'm outgoing, funny, one of the boys, one of the last at the party.
15:42I'm always up for a good time.
15:44I would consider myself pretty cheeky, try and get away with murder with my smile.
15:49I mean, obviously I like a big knob, but I can't say that.
16:02It does feel like I'm reverting to Ty.
16:08Get some class, Zara.
16:13Oh, my God.
16:20I've done that.
16:24Yeah, I don't want to try that one.
16:25Who even got me in bed yet? Slow down.
16:36Simon.
16:37Okay.
16:38I quite like that, that he said that.
16:50It would be nice to find someone ambitious.
16:52Someone that's got a very similar mindset to me.
16:57Oh, this is really tricky now, because, like, earlier I was like,
17:00yeah, I think I'm going to go for Lloyd because the conversations flow.
17:07Oh, this is so hard.
17:14Can you describe your looks?
17:16Oh, I'm 10-10.
17:17What's your 95 job?
17:238 till 6.
17:26Don't miss them two hours a day.
17:28I'm an open book and I'm always just me.
17:31You could ask me absolutely anything about myself and I'd give you my honest answer.
17:35But if I don't know you or have respect for you, then I'm not here for you.
17:40Because I don't care what you think of me and I don't care if you judge me, it's fine.
17:47Hi!
17:49Hi!
17:50I would definitely say that I'm a good friend.
17:54I'm always building a flat pack for them, looking after the children.
17:57Cheers!
17:58Cheers!
18:05I've got a really good family, I've got really good friends.
18:07The only thing I don't have in my life currently is a man.
18:11So, do you think you need someone that's gonna draw out the softer side in you?
18:15Mm.
18:16It will make you feel comfortable to talk about your feelings.
18:21I'm single because I was in a relationship.
18:27That relationship has affected me long term.
18:32At the time, I found it so hard to leave it.
18:36It's definitely the only time that my heart has been broken.
18:39And I'm scared to get that low again.
18:42That's what scarred me now and made me put up such a barrier.
18:51I know that I'm never gonna be able to hold down a relationship
18:55if I can't truly open myself up.
19:00So, I usually go for a guy who is bubbly, fun,
19:04definitely a bit of an adrenaline junkie.
19:07I need someone who is open and is good at communicating
19:10and can bring up my more vulnerable side.
19:13And have this forever, my person.
19:17I don't feel like I'm asking for too much.
19:20Trainee PT Danika's matches are both sporty but different
19:25in terms of her wants and needs.
19:27Yoga fanatic Jack and extreme sportsman Mo.
19:31Mo is her usual fun, energetic type.
19:33And Jack has a more spiritual take on life,
19:38which will challenge Danika, encouraging her to open up
19:41and explore a deeper connection.
19:44What am I gonna message them first?
19:47Tell me something interesting about yourself.
19:53What are you gonna reply to that?
19:54Now I don't even know.
19:57I started scurrying when I was like 15, 16,
20:00and I just kind of fell in love with it.
20:04I've never, like, not been an energetic person.
20:07Like, I've always been bubbly, outgoing.
20:09If I'm having a quiet day, people think something's wrong.
20:12Best case scenario, I walk out of here with a girlfriend
20:17who can match my energy.
20:19Dating me is like going on a rollercoaster
20:23into a mountain full of your wildest dreams.
20:26No way.
20:28One more bit.
20:30I see what you're doing there, honey.
20:32Yeah, yeah.
20:33Oh, my God, yeah, he works smart.
20:36OK, so this is from Jack.
20:38I've been bubbly, outgoing.
20:40I've been bubbly, outgoing.
20:41From Jack.
20:43I'm curious to know more about you two.
20:46My energy type is a projector.
20:50What does that mean?
20:52I don't know. Stop it.
20:54Stop it. What is that?
20:56I can't...
20:58What does that mean?
21:02One of the most important things in my life
21:05is my spiritual health.
21:07I'd much rather have that time to myself,
21:11focusing on things that enhance my spiritual side.
21:15I'm all about communication.
21:18I think it's really important to create that safe space
21:21in a healthy relationship.
21:23I don't know.
21:25This is a lot.
21:26I feel like I'm going to have to come back to it.
21:28Yeah, it's really confusing.
21:30I don't even know.
21:32I'm sorry, Jack, but...
21:33Yeah, I'm...
21:34Yeah.
21:35Yeah, we need time to figure out 100%.
21:37I just feel like with Mo is effortless.
21:40Whereas Jack, right now, I'm confused by him.
21:43He's not my normal type that I would go for.
21:45Can you blankie?
21:50Can I sit here?
21:52After two days of texting,
21:54Zara Lina must now choose between younger Yorkshireman Lloyd
21:58and Simon from Merseyside.
22:01Simon was lovely and really, really nice.
22:04He was very independent.
22:06He's a little bit more mature.
22:08I think the only concern with Lloyd is type.
22:11I think he's going to be a bit younger than me, yeah.
22:14I have decided on who I'm going to pick.
22:16Oh, my God!
22:19There's a lot at stake here.
22:21This date could literally be life-changing for me.
22:24I just feel like he's more me.
22:26I feel like he's got more chat about him.
22:29And I just feel like with the other one,
22:31it's just, I don't know, something was just missing.
22:33I'm really nervous.
22:35Like, never asked anyone if they want to go on a date before.
22:40Oh, my God.
22:45Oh, my God.
22:49Hello?
22:57I'm really nervous.
23:01Oh, my God.
23:04Hello?
23:05Hey, is that Lloyd?
23:07Yeah, it's Lloyd.
23:09Hey, sorry.
23:11How is all this?
23:13Yeah, it's crazy.
23:14It's crazy.
23:15Like, definitely not known until I was before.
23:17So, if we go on a date this weekend...
23:22Yeah, sounds good to me.
23:24Don't try.
23:25Well, I'll learn.
23:27Yeah, leave that.
23:29And I'll see you this weekend.
23:30Oh, no, it was nice speaking.
23:31Yeah, you too.
23:32See you soon.
23:34Oh, my God.
23:35I really can't visualise what he's going to look like from his voice though.
23:40Oh, my God.
23:42I've got to go on a date and essentially live together.
23:45So, I'm a bit of a crazy lady right now.
23:47Oh, this is so hard.
23:49Donika is still torn between giving in to the fun flightiness she's often drawn to from extreme sportsman Moe...
24:08At the minute, it's definitely 50-50, 100%.
24:11Or going down a less familiar, more serious path with a more spiritual Jack.
24:18In regards to Jack, like, yesterday, it was just a bit much.
24:20It was just a bit heavy for, like, a first text.
24:22I wasn't sure.
24:24Moe I'm getting good vibes from, but I still don't really have a lot of information.
24:27Moe says that he is fun, but this is all through text.
24:42I still actually don't know.
24:45They both seem very different.
24:48I'm going to text Jack.
24:50What would you say your core values are?
24:52Being emotionally open is something that I'm going to struggle with because I'm not used to it.
25:03Oh, I think I need a minute.
25:04I'm not used to it.
25:05I'm not used to it.
25:06Oh, I think I need a minute.
25:19Oh, I think I need a minute.
25:36This is making me feel emotional.
25:39Should I go for somebody who's going to take me out of my comfort zone?
25:43Having made the decision now, I'm just feeling a bit, like, just a little bit nervous.
25:49MUSIC
25:55Hello. Hello.
25:58Hello, you all right, Jack? Hi.
26:01So, I was, um, yeah, just wondering if you wanted to go on a date.
26:06I would want to go on a date with you. Oh, you would.
26:09What was it about our little chat that made you want to ask me on a date?
26:12You seem quite, like, free-spirited and you don't sound like you care what other people think of you.
26:19You could say that again.
26:22All right, then, Jack. So, I guess I'll be talking to you soon.
26:25Okay.
26:25All right, bye.
26:27Bye.
26:27Bye, everybody.
26:30He is definitely the one that I wouldn't usually go for.
26:36He sounds quite posh.
26:38I guess we'll find out on the date.
26:40I would never go into a first date without a wig.
26:49Just because I get nervous as it is on a first date, I do worry that they're going to not find me attractive.
26:55It doesn't matter how many people say to me, oh, you look amazing with that wig.
27:02It is always going to be an insecurity.
27:08And the nerves are kicking him.
27:12Just your white line is better for you.
27:14Oh, thank God.
27:16Literally read my mind there.
27:18Thank you so much.
27:19I'm hoping he's down to earth.
27:23Looks-wise, I have no idea what to expect.
27:27I am here to find someone for love.
27:34So, hopefully, I do have physical attraction when I meet Lloyd.
27:40And find out what he's all about.
27:42Hello?
28:09Hello?
28:11Hello?
28:12How are you?
28:13All right.
28:14I'm good, thank you.
28:14All right.
28:15Nice to meet you.
28:15Nice to meet you.
28:16I'm sorry.
28:18Nice to put a face to a...
28:21A text?
28:21Yeah, the girl behind the floor.
28:23It was so random, wasn't it?
28:24Yeah, crazy.
28:25I've never even done a blind date, never mind.
28:27I've never, I've never been a blind date.
28:29So, but, yeah.
28:30Oh, lovely, thank you.
28:33I'm not actually hungry, but I'm going to pay.
28:34I'm going to eat as much as I can.
28:36I'm here for the tequila of mine.
28:38Yeah, you tell me you're a tequila fan.
28:39And to meet you, obviously.
28:40Yeah, well, that just comes with it, I suppose.
28:42Yeah.
28:43So, how old are you?
28:44I'm 26.
28:48Do you have a date of the younger guy?
28:51Mm-hmm.
28:51Is that, like, a preference, or...?
28:54Um...
28:55It's just sort of how it's fallen.
28:57Mm.
28:58What about you?
28:58I've, I've been with both, to be honest.
29:03Have you?
29:03Like, older and younger.
29:04Yeah.
29:05It's about a cougar.
29:05Yeah.
29:07Oh, you're feeling it.
29:09I'm going to be totally honest.
29:12The initial connection isn't there, and attraction-wise.
29:15It could change.
29:16I'm not ruling it off.
29:18But I'm wanting to rip his pants off.
29:20No.
29:20What's the craziest thing you've done in the last year?
29:23I had a bucket list.
29:26I always wanted to go to a sex party.
29:29I don't know if I told you this when we were speaking and text.
29:32I don't think you did, though.
29:36Yeah, I went to a sex party.
29:37It was amazing.
29:38Did you?
29:40Mm.
29:41You have to wear, like, bondage wear.
29:43You have to be in fetish.
29:44That's mad.
29:46That's mad.
29:46Um...
29:47Yeah, you just go, and it's in a club.
29:49It's, like, on different floors.
29:52But I just wanted to, like, experience, like, what it was.
29:55Yeah, it wasn't as seedy as I thought it'd be.
29:57I've never heard about these things.
30:04You've never heard about a sex party?
30:07I definitely feel an age gap with him.
30:10I feel like he's a lot younger.
30:12No sweaty armpits, which means that I'm not nervous or intimidated,
30:16which is not a good sign.
30:19I have got a high sex drive, but I'm not, like...
30:22I wouldn't just sleep with anyone.
30:26Is there a physical attraction?
30:28Yeah, I definitely think there is a physical attraction, yeah.
30:30But I've never dated someone who's been to a sex party.
30:34That surprised me, to be honest.
30:37When I'm in a relationship, like, I've had, like, an ex one say to me,
30:40you're only ever happy if you've got, like, coffee or sex.
30:42Really?
30:43Yeah.
30:44I think I'm going to eat him alive.
30:47I think I'm going to intimidate the crap out of him.
30:49This date means a lot to me because, obviously, it's been years since I've had any emotional connection with anybody,
31:04and it is scary.
31:08I'm just scared of being in love.
31:10Getting my heart broken again and it not working out.
31:16But I'm going into it full speed.
31:19I'm going to go in it with an open heart and open mind.
31:23Try and take it one step at a time.
31:26I literally do not have a clue what he's going to look like.
31:45If he comes in beaded bracelets, a dream patch, a Jesus sandals on, and that, like, I don't know.
31:50I don't know.
31:51I know.
31:53It's so awkward.
31:57Don't worry about it.
32:01I really do not know what to expect.
32:04Oh.
32:07Just hope he looks clean.
32:09And if he looks clean, then we're on to a win.
32:13Oh, wow.
32:16It's not him.
32:21Oh, fuck my life.
32:29I'm just hoping that he's taller than me.
32:32And I feel like there's a vibe around him that makes me feel welcome rather than me feeling awkward straight away.
32:39He's not coming.
32:40Yeah.
32:50Hi.
32:51Hi, Danica.
32:51You OK?
32:52Lovely to meet you.
32:53Angie.
32:54I like your dress.
32:56Wow, you're tall.
32:58I know.
32:58I get that a lot.
32:59I bet.
32:59I get that a lot.
33:02Thank you, mate.
33:03Cheers.
33:04Yeah, cheers.
33:05Lovely to finally meet you.
33:06Angie.
33:06Thank you for asking me on a date.
33:07You're welcome.
33:08You're very different to kind of the image I had in my head.
33:13It was nice to do the messaging without kind of knowing what you look like.
33:18Yeah, I did obviously think that you were spiritual.
33:21And at first, I'm not even joking.
33:22When I was texting, I was like, projector.
33:23I said, what, in the cinema?
33:25Yeah.
33:26I literally said that.
33:27I was like, where are we going to cinema then?
33:28But it just seemed like you was very open.
33:32And I'm not very open.
33:34So I just felt like you would probably bring out of a side of me that maybe I need to bring
33:40out of me.
33:41Explore.
33:41Yeah.
33:42I don't know why.
33:42Maybe you were spiritually saying, ding, ding, ding, ding.
33:45Ding, Nica.
33:46It was you.
33:48We are connected.
33:50You fell on me.
33:50In the spiritual realm.
33:52Yes.
33:52Let's bring her in.
33:53Let's absorb her in.
33:55Is that what you think it's like?
33:56No, that's what you did.
33:57That's what you did.
33:58I don't know.
33:59It changed.
34:00It changed.
34:00So something happened.
34:01You got a little doll or something.
34:03Amazing.
34:03I love it.
34:04I'm feeling there's a connection with Danica.
34:08Not quite sure what type of connection yet.
34:10Maybe quite emotional.
34:12I feel like I'm going to bring out more of a mellow side in her.
34:14And I think she's going to bring out more of an upbeat and bubbly side in me.
34:18You've just got this pitch in your head of like what spirituality means to me.
34:22Like I'm selling this like magic carpet like flying about.
34:25I don't even know.
34:28He's not my normal type.
34:30Probably wouldn't go for somebody like that if I was in a bar.
34:32But if it would have gone for in a bar, it didn't work.
34:36How long have you been single for?
34:37Technically single my whole life.
34:41Longest fling I've been in is two months.
34:46Really?
34:47Yeah.
34:47Two months.
34:52Why the fuck have you never been in a relationship?
34:55What's wrong with you?
34:58Just someone hasn't aligned with me.
35:02And also I'm not willing to settle.
35:04Just for the sake of it.
35:07It's definitely a weird flag that he's never been in a relationship before.
35:10How can he know how to manage a relationship?
35:13Or why hasn't he had a relationship?
35:15Because he's 26.
35:17Yeah, it's definitely a bit weird.
35:18Why are you doing the experiment?
35:28Well, I'm doing the experiment, I suppose.
35:30Can we call it the experiment?
35:31Yeah, why not?
35:33I've been single for about a year.
35:35It's obviously been a good year.
35:37Yeah.
35:38I've had fun, but I do sort of...
35:40I know, I've heard some of your stories.
35:40Yeah, yeah, this is it.
35:42Well, I'd like to find a girlfriend, you know, someone who I could be with.
35:46Tell me about yourself, then.
35:47What do you do for work?
35:48I actually own a cosmetics line.
35:51Oh, do you?
35:52Yeah, for people with hair loss.
35:53Oh, lovely.
35:54So, like, I actually developed alopecia in lockdown.
35:59So I lost all my hair in six weeks.
36:02Head, face, body, everything.
36:04Right.
36:04Yeah, due to stress.
36:07Yeah, this is like...
36:09Oh, yeah.
36:09I have got hair now.
36:11I've got, like, a little pixie crop now.
36:14Would you have noticed?
36:15Never.
36:15No, no, no, genuinely, I would have never thought.
36:19Yeah.
36:19So that's why I obviously launched my business.
36:21It was, like, my silver lining.
36:23Fair play to you for doing that.
36:24Yeah.
36:24Like you say, that's, like, close to you as well.
36:26Yeah.
36:28But all I would say is, like, take it one step at a time, you know what I mean?
36:31Yeah.
36:32I'm very much like that with my mindset, anyway.
36:36It's been nice to meet you.
36:37It's been eventful.
36:40You're excited to live with me.
36:41Yeah, I am.
36:42I was happily surprised when I walked in, so that's a good point.
36:45As the date went on, I did feel more chemistry.
36:50Right, shall we go there?
36:50Yeah.
36:51He could be a grower.
36:53I do.
36:56Not so bright.
36:57It's really obvious I've not seen that.
36:59And I'll see you tomorrow.
37:02See you.
37:03I think it could have potential.
37:05Time will tell.
37:07Obviously, she's a beautiful girl.
37:09Fair play to her.
37:10She felt comfortable speaking about what she's been through, so...
37:14Sometimes you get all the looks and nothing to back it up.
37:18But she's actually, like, a sound girl.
37:21I do fancy her.
37:21I am a fire.
37:31I am a bird.
37:33I am a lesson never learned.
37:37My approach to life is I live every day like it's a holiday.
37:41The final single to enter the Love Triangle experience is 27-year-old Dan.
37:50I grew up in a tiny village in North Wales, where half of my school were whale speakers
37:55and there were lots of farmer's kids.
37:57Now, I run my own company online.
38:01I'm ambitious, successful.
38:03I've been named top 10 entrepreneurs under 25 in the UK.
38:08And I've met the most talented people from across the planet.
38:13I like to think I'm good looking.
38:15I've got a good physique.
38:17My best physical attribute I can't actually mention on camera.
38:20The last piece of the puzzle for me is a successful, committed relationship.
38:28I usually go for mysterious, quiet types.
38:31Maybe what I need is someone more outgoing.
38:33Who can explore and see the world with me and have amazing memories with me.
38:40Why do you think you're single?
38:44I had a really bad heartbreak.
38:46So that relationship ended very much because it was, she wasn't ready for a serious relationship.
38:54The way she dealt with us going separate directions was completely blocking me out of her life.
39:01Yeah.
39:04I found that excruciatingly painful.
39:10I have fear of abandonment.
39:12So I love the freedom of being able to work from anywhere throughout the world.
39:15It means I can have short-term connections with people, protecting myself.
39:22I do have my walls up a little bit, but I am excited to meet someone and hopefully build a successful relationship with them.
39:32Dan's matches are Ali from Scotland and Essex girl Amy.
39:37Ali is Dan's usual type.
39:39Career-focused with a tendency to play her cards close to her chest.
39:43His other match, Amy, meets his needs as someone who will embrace his jet-set lifestyle and passion for spontaneous adventure.
39:54Now we wait.
39:56I'm quite excited to see what both of them will reply to that question.
40:01So Amy is typing.
40:08That's good.
40:09My entire life literally is holidays and travelling.
40:13I would describe myself as a little bit crazy.
40:18I'm very unpredictable in terms of absolutely everything.
40:22No one ever knows what they're going to get with me, which is what makes it fun.
40:26Seems adventurous, which is one of my main personality traits.
40:30So she gets the tick in the box for that one.
40:32I think I do fall into the Essex stereotype of she's blonde, she's small, and like that I'm not very bright.
40:40And then when I turn around and say, oh, no, I actually am a teacher with a science degree.
40:45It shocks people.
40:47And I like that.
40:47I want somebody that wants the same things now.
40:58I want someone that wants to travel, that wants to have a family, get married.
41:02I just want to meet my forever.
41:06She has the same sort of life view as me, which is good.
41:09So that's definitely good points for Amy right now.
41:12Oh, Ali's typing finally.
41:14We have a message.
41:15Hey, hey, I'm Ali.
41:17Nice to chat with you.
41:19Oh, wow.
41:19Straight in with the tough questions.
41:21Ha, ha, ha.
41:22I guess you'll just have to wait and see.
41:24Ali seems more guarded, closed off.
41:28That's usually my type.
41:30She's making me want to wait and see more about who she is.
41:38I do have ambitions in terms of my career.
41:41I think it's super important for someone to support your career.
41:46I don't feel like I'm in a position where I can just, like, okay, drop everything.
41:49I'm going to travel the world for, like, five years.
41:51Though I would love that.
41:54I like both of them so far.
41:56Amy, like, I'd probably get along with her more right now from what she's saying.
42:01But Ali, I'm more interested in finding out more about just because she is quite mysterious.
42:08I'm a bit torn.
42:12This is really hard.
42:13Like, really hard.
42:15I think both of them have amazing traits.
42:18I'd love to live with both of them.
42:20Amy ticks a lot of boxes.
42:22But for some reason, my gut is telling me to go with Ali.
42:41I'm excited.
42:42I'm excited for the first moment to see her, to see if she's that person I painted in my head.
42:47She seems very driven and she knows, you know, what she wants in life.
42:50So how are you feeling about moving in together?
42:59I don't really know.
43:01I feel like we'll both be, like, open and communicative.
43:05Like, that's the most important thing, communication, isn't it?
43:08I feel we'll just take on any challenge.
43:11Obviously, it's probably going to be a little bit awkward at times.
43:13I don't think it'll be awkward.
43:15Yeah, I don't know.
43:16I don't feel awkward now.
43:18I mean, okay, I lied.
43:19I feel a little bit awkward.
43:19I feel like, like, majorly awkward, but a little bit awkward.
43:23Obviously, I'm out of my comfort zone.
43:24But it's good to, like, explore that, being uncomfortable, because then we'll both learn a lot about ourselves.
43:29Just take it each day.
43:30I think that's the best thing we can do.
43:32I think that's going to be the healthiest way to do things.
43:34There's not going to be a problem.
43:35Yeah.
43:36But I think we're going to have a lot of fun in there.
43:38I feel like we will.
43:39I think we will.
43:39I feel like he's the type of guy that cares about my feelings.
43:44There is definitely an energy there.
43:48I just don't feel like I want to rip his clothes off.
43:51Whereas normally, my first instinct, I want to rip the clothes off, but I don't even know what the chat is.
43:55Two, I've been living life on the wild side without water.
44:01It's definitely wild.
44:03It's the wildest thing I've ever done in my life.
44:06Just going to keep a clear, open mind.
44:08Right, let's go.
44:09And just take it each day as it comes, and go with it, roll with it, ride with it.
44:14Who knows, you might even meditate with it.
44:16All right then, well, lovely to meet you.
44:18See you in the house.
44:19I guess I'll see you.
44:21Bye.
44:21Did you try and go for a little kiss when you were leaving?
44:30Maybe a little kiss, but, you know, she wasn't feeling it.
44:32It's not there in the first date.
44:34That's fine.
44:34You know, sometimes in first dates, I haven't kissed.
44:37It's been on the second date, so we'll see.
44:39Going into this completely blind is pretty nerve-wracking.
44:54I have no idea if I made the right choice.
44:57So I am quite nervous, but I'm also really excited.
45:04I know very quickly if I want to be with someone.
45:07I think it takes, like, one or two dates before I really know I'm probably going to fall in love with them.
45:17I'm quite scared of fully coming to someone just because I might get hurt again.
45:24I've had such a long time alone.
45:28This could be a pretty big day for me.
45:30I could meet someone who could be a huge part of my life.
45:37Hi, Dan.
45:40How's it going?
45:41Nice to meet you.
45:42How are you?
45:43I'm good.
45:44How are you feeling?
45:45Okay.
45:46You're not cold?
45:47Um, I've got Scottish, like, blood to burn me.
45:49Did you want my jacket?
45:50No, it's all right.
45:51It's fine.
45:51No worries.
45:52Do you want a drink or something?
45:53Yeah, let's go.
45:54Cool.
45:54When I first saw Ali, my reaction was my heart rate increasing massively.
46:04It's nice here.
46:06It is nice.
46:06Yeah.
46:07And I'm interested to find out more about her personality to see whether, you know, we'll
46:12have a good time living together.
46:14Cheers.
46:15Cheers.
46:19Okay, yeah, go for it.
46:21Okay.
46:22So I know you worked hard for four years, nine to five.
46:26I work in, like, clinical trials at the minute, so, which I love it.
46:30So it's like a strong sense of purpose with the job.
46:33Obviously it's a huge impact on so many people's lives.
46:34I love it. I, like, I can't see myself saying anything different.
46:37It's cool. It's good fun.
46:39But, yeah, how about you? What's your story, Tim?
46:40Um, so from the...
46:41Oh, wow.
46:44Thank you so much.
46:46I think we need a bigger table.
46:47Yeah.
46:48Oh, gracias.
46:49Nice to meet you.
46:50Thanks for that.
46:51So, grew up in a tiny village in North Wales in the mountains.
46:56Oh, nice.
46:56All my friends were sheep farmers.
46:58Then I moved to Cardiff to study economics.
47:01And then after that, planted jobs, kept getting rejected.
47:03So I started my first company.
47:05Nice.
47:05So that's why last week I was in L.A.
47:07Before that, I was in Guatemala, before that, Thailand.
47:09Oh, so do you, like, travel and work at the same time?
47:12Yeah, just digital nomads.
47:14It sounds good.
47:15As long as you're happy, I feel like it's the most important thing.
47:19You know, it's quite nice.
47:21I feel like conversation's flowing.
47:23He seems nice.
47:24Yeah, it's good.
47:25Well, I think.
47:26Sorry, also, I was just thinking about the text.
47:28I'm a really terrible text.
47:29Oh, I know.
47:30I realize that.
47:32It's quite good, though.
47:33You were playing, like, quite hard to get.
47:36Actually, that wasn't intentional.
47:37Which, like, subconsciously made me, like, oh, wow, like, it made me, like, more.
47:42Yeah, I'm so mysterious.
47:43Like, no, I'm not at all.
47:45Um, no, I'm just a really shit texter.
47:48Her texting persona is, I think, very different to her real-life persona.
47:53Obviously, when she was texting, she seemed more closed off.
47:56But now I've met her in person.
47:57She's very open.
47:58She seems like a very friendly person.
48:01Where is the best place you've been?
48:03Oh, Costa Rica.
48:04Yeah, you need to tell me about your tattoo.
48:06Yeah, it's on my knee.
48:08It says, Pura Vida.
48:10Okay, what was the inspiration?
48:12What was the...
48:12When you go to Costa Rica, it's like a saying.
48:16So when you order food, when you get out of a taxi, when you meet someone, it's like, Pura Vida, Pura Vida.
48:21And it just means, like, live your best life.
48:23To be honest, all my tattoos came from breakups.
48:27It ended quite badly, and I got really hurt.
48:32Yeah.
48:33It was, like, a really painful time in my life.
48:40Oh, wow.
48:41First thing?
48:42Are you okay now?
48:46Yeah.
48:47Are you sure?
48:48I'm still standing.
48:51Do you think you're over it?
48:55Getting there.
48:56Getting there.
48:57I'm not out of the pain yet.
48:59It's just, like, the way it ended really hurt me.
49:01Yeah.
49:02So, one of my escape mechanisms is to travel.
49:05You know what?
49:06See, when you first told me, when you were like, yeah, I've been traveling for four years, like, so immediately I was like, this person is running away from something.
49:16Do you think you're, like, you can offer stability?
49:20What, because I'm still traveling, you mean?
49:22No, just everything we just spoke about.
49:25Huh?
49:25Everything we just spoke about.
49:28I think the, like, curveball of him talking about his ex a little bit has kind of, like, made me a bit, like, okay.
49:36Like, a little bit guarded, for sure.
49:40Are you excited to move in?
49:42Am I excited to live with you?
49:47Uh, yeah.
49:47That was a delayed reaction.
49:50No, no, I see.
49:51No, you're totally not excited to live with me.
49:52She felt like, why have you come on this date if you're still holding pain from a previous relationship?
49:58Whereas the way I see it is, you know, it was such a painful time in my life that that's going to carry, be carried around me for quite a long time.
50:05But I feel right now that she is not considerate or empathetic towards it.
50:11She seemed like she was, like, smoking and smiling, which kind of really offended me quite a lot.
50:15I'm nervous about being in one place for a long period of time.
50:20Interesting.
50:24It's not quite there yet, I don't think, for me.
50:26Shall we?
50:27Yeah.
50:28Vamos.
50:29But, like, why not take a risk and see if there's anything more there?
50:33Like, I'm willing to give it a go.
50:35Next time.
50:38Wow, what a way to wake up.
50:41As domestic bliss continues for some.
50:43Don't take your while.
50:44Sorry.
50:45Love is the last thing on others' minds.
50:48We're not compatible.
50:49This is never going to go anywhere.
50:50Yeah, fully.
50:51Do you think you're sitting there as if you're a God's gift?
50:53We're never going to like each other.
50:54He's a 31-year-old man baby.
50:57And as all six couples gather for the first time.
51:00Yeah.
51:01A flirtation too far sparks scandal.
51:04Oh my God.
51:06It's so moggy.
51:07I don't understand how someone can do that.
51:09You're saying to me, fuck your feelings, Jack.
51:11It doesn't matter.
51:12I don't give a fuck who's around me.
51:13I'm here for my feelings.
51:14But it's an explosive dinner party twist.
51:17The other girl just texted me.
51:25It's from Danielle.
51:27Looking forward to our first date.
51:29Oh my God.
51:30That sends the group reeling.
51:32I came here to meet someone and not have to compete anymore.
51:36You just don't know what's going to happen.
51:38You just don't know what's going to happen.
51:42You just don't know what's going to happen.
