I'll agree with 'most likely not, no'
In Terry's case, I think he's just there for the craic.

Has nobody mentioned the frankly wrongheaded, 'tame the bad boy' thing Amy was coming out with?
WTF, going looking for 'broken' people to 'fix' bad move, why would anyone deliberately go looking for that?


Manjit WTF he went on a date with whatsherface Essex bird, I don't know or maybe he's hoping it's a shop window for himself?
Some people must think their lives are so boring that they need to introduce some danger into it. Seems a bit iffy, and even more so when you have a child.

Those people who love a bit of drama, if their own life doesn't have it, they go looking for it in other people's lives.
I see the thing where you fall into a relationship and have to 'fix' someone along the way.
Mate tried that with a Heroin addict, suffice to say it didn't go well, he resorted to shooting up in his hand or foot at one point.
It's not like he didn't have enough problems to start with FFS.

I love this show. My new (not so secret) guilty pleasure. I spend about 70% of each show watching through my fingers, shouting wow/no/make it stop at the tv/Rajan/Terry.

Kudos to all those who put themselves out there for the nation to watch. First dates are difficult anyway so it must be terrifying doing it on camera.

Pretty heavy thing to find out on a first date. I'm not sure how I'd react in all honesty.
I'm sure you'd rather find out before you had sex with the person. A lot of people seem to jump into bed and have unprotected sex with someone because they "look alright" i.e. don't look sick when in reality you don't know what diseases they're afflicted with. I was quite shocked by that revelation but I think Markus reacted well. He could have easily ran out the door but he stayed and they had a nice platonic time.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to tonight's ep, I'm enjoying this series way more than I thought I would.

I think Rajan should be on every single episode as his dates are just hilarious. I didn't ever think it'd be as good as it is...cringe stuff!

Where is everybody, it's very quiet on here.
The lady with Daniel from Wales isn't really helping him out, when he was clearly struggling.
That said she seems to have warmed up a little near the end.

I hope we don't have Rajan again, as funny as he is.
Angela is a big girl.

What is going well, what is anyone supposed to make of that post, really?

Anyway, I was rather hoping Angela and Hank would get to a second date, probably as friends but at least a second date.

That student from earlier is by far the cutest dater so far (besides the maitre'd that is, but I don't think we can apply to date him)

Hank seemed like a sweetheart, loved him telling the waiter to leave the napkin on the chair for Angela to sit on!

Oh Tamsin, I hope she was tongue in cheek with the pieces to camera earlier otherwise, she's going to rub people up the wrong way, blokes will still be interested though.

She's rubbed me up the wrong way already - "the boys I date know they're punching above their weight"......"I'm not going to look like this forever...." - she's hardly a knockout!

Hope she was being tongue in cheek tbh, we'll see!

Yes, admit you're a bit of a pisshead on a first date with a woman who obviously isn't much of a drinker. Great idea.

EDIT: he's slurring now.........

Well blokey said he liked a challenge, Amy last week wanted to tame the bad boy, both ideas don't 'work' for me if you're dating/looking for someone.

Ah the electrician got puddled, then topped it off with the smaller girl thing
That's a very Rajan/childish thing to do, but made me giggle anyway.

I thought Tamsin was on a date with Terry Turbo for a second!

LOVE Tamsin, just think she is so honest and so what if she has a high opinion of herself and has standards...at least she's not just settling for anyone.

Well she did seem to have a thing about it as soon as she walked in, maybe he had had a few before the program.

I can't hate her for that - she seems decent enough on this date so I blame dodgy editing/misplaced sarcasm for her comments earlier.

And I love her dress

She does nothing for me.
BIB nobody else seems to be settling for 'anyone' either.
Given how many dates she goes on, I'm not so sure she's really looking for someone rather than enjoying the scene/going out.
Seems blokey was unsure of her motives too.

I don't think Tamsin is anywhere near as fussy as she claims to be, anyone who was truly fussy would not average one date a week, I'm sorry.

I agree with the guy she dated on tonight's ep, she may not sleep with all (or any) of the men she goes on dates with but she sure enjoys the dating game to go on so many dates thus making her a bit of a player. Of course there's nothing wrong with this just don't pretend to be something you're not.

Bit of a strange episode last night I thought - I'd love to see more of more dates, I guess there just isn't enough time in the show. I wish they'd follow it up a bit more though - as to whether they ever went on a second date.

It was uncomfortable to watch the guy (with the heart transplant) and the blonde - there were a few awkward moments but by the end of the evening it seemed to be going better. I'm not sure how much the editing plays in to this programme though - I'm sure Big Brother style cameras could pick up what looks like silent/awkward moments with any couple having a meal and piece them together to give a totally different view of the date.

I really enjoy watching it though, especially when I feel the people are not fame hungry - I am sometimes a bit sceptical about who would go on a TV dating show - sometimes people looking to get spotted/famous rather than those genuinely looking for love. But I think they do have some genuine ones on this. I'm really tempted to apply... but I've just started dating a guy.

Did Terry look a bit crestfallen when she said that sex was a no-no?
He might lose his cherry one day...

Terry reminds me of a young Michael Barrymore!
Praise indeed!

Hank...Hank....Hank....Hank.

It's running out of steam already. BRING BACK FAYHE!

Well, these dates only happened the previous Saturday so a second one might not have happened, yet.
