First Dates

First through the restaurant door in this episode is six foot four tattooed teetotaller Danny. This Brummie hunk wants a girl who'll accept him for who he is, and his match is Scouse mum of one Kate, a lady with a penchant for tattooed giants. There's definite flirty chemistry between them, but as Danny opens up about his recovery from addiction, their burgeoning romance is put to the test. Sharp-tongued anaesthetist David needs a healthy injection of love, and his date for the evening is rugby-loving marketing manager Alex, who's looking for 'husband material'. Unfortunately, he can't remember Alex's name, and puckish Alex isn't in a rush to remind him. Fifty-year-old warehouse manager Gary has been married twice before, but has since hit a run of bad luck. His blind date is 48-year-old Lancashire lass Wendy. With two divorces under her belt she too is no stranger to heartbreak.
