00:00We're heading out for good times
00:04Woo-hoo!
00:05Oh, my God!
00:08Oh, my God, this is so good!
00:11Oh, yeah, boys!
00:13Cheers!
00:14Cheers!
00:15Cheers!
00:16Say how tall everyone is, man, it's crazy.
00:18I don't think that's my superpower any more right here. Yeah.
00:21It normally works when you get a good chat-up line,
00:23you don't have to say, oh, you're tall.
00:25Now it's like...
00:26Hello!
00:28Hi!
00:30Oh, my God, it's Emma Willis.
00:32Hello!
00:34Hi!
00:35Oh, my God!
00:37I'm so excited!
00:40Gentlemen, how are you?
00:42Good.
00:43Feeling ready?
00:44Definitely.
00:45Good.
00:46Hello, ladies.
00:47Hi.
00:48I'm Matt Willis.
00:49I'm Emma Willis.
00:50The surname is not a coincidence.
00:52We are indeed married.
00:54I'm very aware I'm punching.
00:57Welcome to the experiment that seeks to answer
01:00one very simple question,
01:02is love blind?
01:04Here, you will choose someone to marry
01:07without ever seeing them.
01:11I mean, what has brought you all here today?
01:14In my opinion, it's the men.
01:17I'm struggling, essentially,
01:19to find someone who has the same life goals
01:21and wants to find the same eventuality,
01:24which is marriage in my case.
01:26I'm looking to connect with someone
01:27on the deepest, most profound emotional level that I can.
01:29I find that that can be taken out of dating nowadays.
01:32You're worried about how she thinks you look.
01:34The dating world, it's very superficial,
01:36and it's like one, two dates,
01:38and then they're upgrading on to the next person.
01:40Well, this is perfect, then,
01:41because you are genuinely going to get the chance
01:44to fall in love with somebody
01:45based solely on who they are on the inside,
01:48because you ain't seeing nothing.
01:50Over the next ten days,
01:51you are going to meet a stream of potential love interests.
01:54An ocean.
01:55If you fall in love and find somebody
01:57that you want to spend the rest of your life with,
01:59you will get engaged.
02:01Only after that will you meet your fiancé
02:04for the very first time.
02:07Then you'll move in together.
02:08You'll meet each other's friends, family,
02:10and after four little weeks,
02:12you're going to be at your very own wedding,
02:14where you're going to have to make
02:16the biggest decision of your life.
02:17Will you say I do
02:19to the person you've chosen sight unseen,
02:21or will you walk away from them forever?
02:24So, is love truly blind?
02:26If you're ready to find out,
02:27all you've got to do is walk through those doors,
02:30because the pods are now...
02:33Open!
02:34Yeah!
02:36Go, go, go!
02:38Go get yourself a wife!
02:40Good luck, guys.
02:41Good luck, man. Couple of goals, couple of goals.
02:43Go find my man.
02:45See you.
02:48Amazing.
02:49Wow.
02:50Wow.
02:51Have fun, ladies.
02:52All the best, fellas.
02:53Go get your wives.
02:58Hello.
02:59Hello.
03:00This is strange, isn't it?
03:01Hi.
03:02Hello.
03:03Oh, my God, that's crazy.
03:05Do you know what? I was outside there then.
03:07It's so nerve-wracking.
03:09Why are you a catch?
03:11Why am I a catch?
03:15I'm a catch because I'm a caring person,
03:18I've got a lot to give somebody, a lot of love,
03:22and I'm a very affectionate person.
03:24What do you do for work?
03:26I'm a funeral director.
03:28Shut up.
03:30Are you kidding?
03:32No!
03:33Freddie, the funeral director, I'll not forget that in a hurry.
03:36As a funeral director, I'm surrounded by death every day,
03:39which does scare people away.
03:41I'm a funeral director.
03:43What?!
03:44It has affected my dating, it limits how I can meet people.
03:49When you see dead bodies, are you just, like, absolutely fine with it?
03:52Well, yeah, because I just think that's someone's loved one
03:55and I'm just looking after them.
03:57My love life's been dead for a while.
04:00You know, I'm desperate to meet my soul mate,
04:02and my mam's been going on at me about how she wants grandchildren,
04:05so I've got to try and get her some.
04:07Hello.
04:08Hello.
04:09I just need the bride now.
04:11Are you OK?
04:13I heard, like, little...
04:15Little footsteps first.
04:17Stop, I love your accent.
04:19Oh, really?
04:20Are you Manchester? Yeah.
04:21Where are you from? Jersey.
04:23Jersey! I love that.
04:25Wait, what's your name?
04:26Freddie.
04:27What's your name?
04:28Catherine.
04:29Catherine?
04:30What do you do?
04:31I'm a funeral director.
04:33Ooh.
04:35Are you actually?
04:36Calm down, I'm not going to embalm you.
04:38Nothing wrong with that.
04:39Stop!
04:40Do you know what I mean?
04:41What's your problem?
04:43Do you know what, I love that, Jersey.
04:45My mam and dad lived in Jersey for a little bit.
04:47It's amazing, it's amazing.
04:49Sorry, have I asked you what your job is?
04:51I actually do dentistry.
04:52What?
04:53So you're a, what, dental nurse?
04:55Yeah.
04:56Flippin' heck.
04:57I was a swimmer, so I'm a swimming coach.
04:59Flippin' heck.
05:00Hobbies, what are your hobbies?
05:02Love the gym.
05:03Do you go to the gym every day?
05:05Yeah.
05:06Yeah, same.
05:07You probably think I'm a weirdo, and I'm not telling you on this,
05:09but I thought they're going to think, oh, my God.
05:11I know what you're going to say.
05:12What am I going to say?
05:13You're going to say you go twice a day.
05:15Yes, I do.
05:16How did you know?
05:17What the hell?
05:18I don't get that.
05:20What?
05:23How did you know that?
05:24I just fell off my chair.
05:26Oh, my God.
05:27I'd high-five you right now, but I can't.
05:28I'd high-five in the air.
05:29I'd high-five in the air as well.
05:31Yeah, but I'm exactly the same.
05:33Do you have any siblings, Freddie?
05:34I have, yeah.
05:35I've got a brother and a sister.
05:36He's got Down syndrome, my brother.
05:38He's absolutely amazing.
05:40I actually teach Down syndrome kids to swim.
05:43Ah, really?
05:44Yeah.
05:45That's incredible.
05:46Beautiful.
05:47That's great.
05:50It's really important that my mum and dad approve of my husband.
05:53I want to make them proud.
05:54At the end of the day, I'm their only daughter.
05:57And I have brought home some rotten men.
06:02Yeah, they have seen a lot.
06:04Not a lot of men.
06:06But they've seen some disasters.
06:11Guys just look at me and they just think,
06:13long hair, physique, six-pack,
06:16but really all they're thinking is sex.
06:21Hello.
06:22Hello.
06:23How are you doing?
06:24I'm good.
06:25They judge a book by its cover, and I'm tired of it.
06:29That's why I'm here.
06:31This is weird.
06:32I've never been on a date like this before.
06:34No, 100%.
06:35So what's your name?
06:36My name's Catherine.
06:37My name's Ollie.
06:38I like your voice, I'll give you that.
06:41I quite like your voice as well.
06:44You're doing the kind of soft like.
06:46I need a minute.
06:48Okay, on to the fun stuff.
06:49When you're letting loose, having a good time,
06:51what's that look like?
06:52Brunching with the girls, day drinks.
06:55Do you know what I mean?
06:56Mm-hmm.
06:57What do you like to do?
06:58So Saturday I normally have training in the morning,
07:00I do boxing.
07:01I used to kickboxing.
07:02Oh, really?
07:03Yeah.
07:04I'm going to kickboxing for some time.
07:05Is that a promise?
07:06100%.
07:12Anyways.
07:15When you think about marriage,
07:16how do you see the partnership being?
07:18How do you see sharing responsibilities?
07:20I want someone who I can do fun stuff with.
07:23Just because you're married
07:24doesn't mean you need to sit at home all day.
07:26100%.
07:27I just want to vibe with them.
07:29Yeah.
07:30And I love a good time.
07:31I think we'd be a good time.
07:34Oli, his voice, it's just drawing me in.
07:38I feel really weird right now.
07:40I feel like I've won.
07:41Don't.
07:42That's how I feel right now.
07:43I'm so happy.
07:44I think I could shed a tear if I wanted to.
07:46I've been told that I tend to date with my eyes,
07:49so this has allowed me to flip dating on its head,
07:51and because I'm not able to see them,
07:52all my other senses will be kind of heightened
07:54to who they are as a person.
07:55I'm not going to be distracted by what they look like.
07:57Non-stop Riz.
08:00I'm at the age where I know myself
08:02better than I've ever known myself.
08:03I think I'm in the best place I've ever been,
08:05so I think a long-term partner would be the one thing
08:07kind of completing the picture, so to speak.
08:11Do I have a celebrity look-alike?
08:12Yes, I do.
08:13I don't think I look like him that much,
08:14but I've had people coming up to me
08:16and saying they're like Craig David.
08:19It's an icebreaker, if nothing else.
08:22Hey.
08:24Hello, hello.
08:25Hello.
08:26Let me get to the sofa in these heels.
08:29Wait, stop, pause.
08:30What's your name?
08:31Because I need to write that down.
08:32Oli, what's yours?
08:33My name's Demi.
08:34You sound like you're from my neck of the woods.
08:36OK, you're London.
08:37You're a London boy.
08:38So, what does a typical weekend look like for you?
08:40Do you step out with friends, see family,
08:42or do you tend to be a bit of a homebody?
08:44So, on the weekend, I play football on a Sunday.
08:46Swear to God.
08:47Yeah, I play for quite a few teams, you know?
08:49OK.
08:50So, Saturday's like...
08:51I do go out, but I'm all about eating
08:53and having a drink and just good music.
08:55OK, I rate that, I rate that.
08:57Yeah, that's my vibe.
08:58What about you?
08:59Similar to that.
09:00So, Saturday, I normally have training
09:02during, like, the morning.
09:03I do boxing, and then...
09:04I box, too.
09:05Mads.
09:06You know, you can imagine, I'm, like,
09:08the girl that plays football and boxes,
09:09so I've had a lot of guy friends that...
09:11I've friend-zoned myself before anything,
09:14because I'm vibes.
09:17I just feel like a lot of dating now
09:19is just short-term, so that's why...
09:21Love is blind, come hook me up.
09:24I don't want to go where nobody loves me.
09:27I do think physical attraction is important.
09:29I want to be able to look at my man and be like,
09:31mm, mm.
09:34But, um...
09:36It's not everything.
09:37Even with myself, like, sometimes I'm
09:39two stone heavier one month,
09:41and then, like, four months later,
09:42I'm two stone lighter, and, like...
09:44I'm still me.
09:46I want love.
09:47Every little girl wants that fairytale ending,
09:50and I could potentially have that.
09:53So, like, what would be your first, like, date?
09:56I feel like you'd be a solid activity date person,
09:58given how active you are.
09:59Yeah, I would.
10:00But it would get competitive, and it's like, oh...
10:01That's fine.
10:02Like, I still want to be in love,
10:03but, like, also very, like, let me win.
10:05Obviously, I'd feel so bad when I beat you
10:07at whatever sport we're doing.
10:08No, do you know what I'm good at?
10:09Do you know what I'm good at?
10:10Basketball. You know, the arcade.
10:11I promise you there's no way in hell...
10:13No, there's no one better than me.
10:14Huh?
10:15There's no one better than me at basketball,
10:16at arcades.
10:17No one.
10:19I'm so confused right now, because there is.
10:21I'm right here.
10:22No, you're not.
10:25I really like Oli.
10:27I feel comfortable,
10:28and I feel like he's a bit of a cheeky chap.
10:30I wanted to tell him about things that are sensitive to me.
10:33I also didn't want to, like, throw it on too thick with him,
10:36so I was just probing a little bit.
10:38So, do you want a family?
10:40Yeah, I do want kids,
10:41but at the same time, I don't hang
10:43all of my chances of happiness on that,
10:45because I understand that, obviously,
10:46some people literally can't have kids,
10:48some people don't want to have kids.
10:49Oh, wow.
10:50I actually love that you just said that, though.
10:53You have to be mindful with that conversation, right?
10:55100%.
10:56Demi, I'm so glad we spoke today, you know,
10:58because I do genuinely believe
11:00that, like, a solid foundation for a relationship,
11:03and in this case, a marriage, is a friendship,
11:05and I already feel like I've got that with you.
11:10She's cool. I like her.
11:16Hey!
11:17How did you find it?
11:19Oh, I absolutely love it.
11:20I can just feel the energy.
11:21Like, my man is out there.
11:23Yay!
11:27I feel like Katherine's giving more, like, sexual vibes
11:30rather than connection vibes.
11:31Does that make sense?
11:32She's pulling up what every man wants.
11:33Do you get what I'm saying?
11:34But that's my vibe.
11:35I like a girl like that.
11:36Yeah, of course, but in actual fact,
11:38someone like Demi was probably more...
11:39I'd probably connect them more on a level.
11:41She was a really cool girl.
11:42Yeah, she was, she was.
11:43They're all lovely, they're all lovely.
11:46I want more dates.
11:47Do you speak to Olly yet?
11:48Not yet.
11:50I'm really getting on with Olly.
11:52I'm in here for myself,
11:54and I want to come out with her husband.
11:56I really like him.
11:58Yeah, OK, good.
12:01As far as I'm aware, no-one likes Olly,
12:03but if they did and not told me,
12:07that's shit.
12:18I'm so ready to meet my soulmate.
12:20I just really hope he's here.
12:22I think it's really great to build a life together.
12:25On the surface, I'm like,
12:26I'm miss-independent, I don't need a man,
12:28but at the same time,
12:29you know, I am a bit of a hopeless romantic.
12:34Over the last year,
12:35there's been situations in my life.
12:37My granny, who I was very, very close to,
12:39my Gigi, passed away.
12:41Oh, gosh, I don't want to...
12:44You know, she was the kind of heart of our family,
12:46and after her funeral,
12:48coming home to an empty house on my own,
12:50and it was just...
12:51It's moments like that where it would just be nice
12:53to have someone to be there and hug you
12:55and be like, it's going to be OK.
12:57Sorry.
12:58I just get really upset any time I talk about Gigi.
13:05Hello.
13:06Hello.
13:07Oh, my goodness.
13:08What's your name?
13:09Sabrina.
13:10Sabrina, what a great name.
13:12Mine's Stephen.
13:13And where are you from, Stephen?
13:15I'm from Birmingham,
13:16but I've lived in London for 14 years.
13:18OK.
13:19I'm starting to get a little bit of your accent now.
13:21I'm from Belfast.
13:23OK, is that where you live?
13:24I live in Belfast, yeah.
13:25You live there now, yeah?
13:26Yeah.
13:27What about location-wise, then?
13:28Would you relocate
13:29or you'd want your future husband to move to Belfast?
13:32Oh, no, I'd relocate.
13:33You would relocate?
13:34Yeah, there's a lot more opportunities in London
13:36than there is in Belfast for people.
13:37Oh, nice. OK, fair.
13:38What do you do?
13:39I work in marketing.
13:40What about you?
13:41So, I own a CrossFit gym.
13:43You're a CrossFitter!
13:44No, don't start judging me.
13:46You're part of the cult!
13:48I had to tell you the truth, though, didn't I?
13:51I would say I'm pretty much from a man's world
13:53because I'm one of four brothers.
13:55I went to an all-boys school.
13:57How I even know how to speak to females
13:59and how I'm in touch with my emotions is beyond me.
14:02And my parents were very often on,
14:04and that was a big part of my childhood.
14:06They split up when I was 16 during my GCSEs.
14:08At the time, it was the worst day of my life.
14:10And as a result of that, I really know what I want.
14:13I'm here to find my partner in crime,
14:15and I just want to be in love for the rest of my life
14:18with that one person.
14:20So, what makes you you?
14:22I'm very adventurous.
14:24Epic.
14:25I'm very spontaneous.
14:26Like it, my favourite word.
14:28But I'm very considerate.
14:32I'm laughing. Have you got my script over there?
14:34Yeah.
14:36Do you meditate?
14:37Yes, I do.
14:38Nice.
14:39I do my meditation into three parts.
14:41So, pure breathing, finding the rhythm,
14:42checking with the body.
14:43Then I have my cold shower.
14:45Cold shower, you've lost me.
14:47Absolutely not.
14:48Just to wake me up.
14:50And then I do gratitude journals.
14:52Do you?
14:53Yeah.
14:54This is so weird.
14:55I feel like you've just taken my daily routine.
14:57Except my shower is definitely at about 40 degrees.
15:00Apart from the shower.
15:01It's OK to be different, then.
15:03So, I've never actually met someone
15:05who has a similar mindset about those sort of things.
15:08I went on a year-long journey of kind of just working on myself.
15:11Yeah.
15:12So, now I do a lot of gratitude journaling
15:14and practice gratitude as much as I can.
15:16Love that. Love that.
15:17I think it's really important to get to the point
15:19where you're so happy in yourself.
15:20It's like it's not anyone else's job to make you happy.
15:22Yeah.
15:23And I'm all about adding value to each other's lives.
15:25Oh, my God.
15:26Same, same.
15:27Your language is so similar to mine.
15:29I'm smiling, if you can't tell, but with my voice.
15:32OK.
15:33My date with Sabrina has been incredible.
15:36Strong date.
15:37Oh, man.
15:38Absolute home run.
15:39It's good.
15:40Literally, we have the same routine in a day.
15:42Like, it was weird.
15:43Meditation, gratitude and all of that.
15:50That one I made a big connection with.
15:52Sabrina.
15:53Yeah.
15:54I don't want to tell you guys cos I'm happy,
15:56do you know what I mean?
15:57Yeah.
15:58Sabrina, like, everything about her was awesome,
16:00but I didn't really have a spark with her.
16:02Oh, I did.
16:03Did you?
16:04No, I'm joking.
16:05I'm just messing with her.
16:10Ten men in the field, the keeper's in there, mate.
16:14This whole experiment is just amazing.
16:17Buenos dias.
16:18Buenos noches.
16:19It's not night time yet.
16:22Everyone's dating everyone.
16:25This is crazy.
16:28This is a lot for the brain.
16:29It is.
16:31What's your favourite cake?
16:33Do you know what? A Vicky sponge.
16:34Stop it. No way.
16:36It's not yours.
16:37Yes, it is.
16:41I love football.
16:42Oh, who's your team?
16:43So, I'm Arsenal.
16:44Oh, bollocks.
16:46Are you a Spurs?
16:47I am.
16:48Bollocks.
16:49This isn't going to work.
16:52In the morning, I can't speak to you with smelly breath.
16:55I know this sounds mad, but I actually don't think
16:57I have a problem with morning breath.
16:59You think you're crystal clean?
17:01Yeah.
17:03And it went well?
17:04It went really well.
17:05Did you get your flirt on?
17:06I loved it.
17:07It was so much fun.
17:08It was so much fun.
17:11Ladies, that's day one done.
17:24Hello, ladies.
17:25I'm about to eat, man.
17:27Get away from my raspberries, bro.
17:30It's always good to have a little mirror to see, you know,
17:32and the lighting's good as well in this, so...
17:35I never liked what I saw in the mirror,
17:37and I have done things to improve my appearance.
17:39I did have a nose job.
17:41I've always been conscious of certain things.
17:44Since I found out about this experiment,
17:46I came off the dating apps,
17:48I trained very hard in the gym,
17:50great new skincare routine, the whole lot,
17:52cos I'm hoping that the next wedding I attend
17:54will probably be my own.
17:57Hello.
17:58Hi.
17:59This feels so surreal, doesn't it?
18:01Yeah. What's your name?
18:02It's Sam. What's your name?
18:03Sam. I'm Jasmine.
18:04All the weddings I attend at the moment,
18:06where it's plus one on the invitations,
18:08and I have no plus one, it does hurt.
18:10And, you know, I do go to bed some nights and think, why?
18:15So tell me more about you.
18:16I'm, like, you know, spending quality time with my family.
18:18My sister's got a little kid, so just being the best uncle.
18:20Oh, so you're an uncle.
18:22That's why I know I just want kids.
18:24Yeah, cos it's prepping your fatherhood, isn't it?
18:26It is. Oh, I'm going to be a great father.
18:28I love looking after people.
18:30I care for people as a living,
18:32and I can't wait to be a mum.
18:35I want someone to be my best friend,
18:36and someone that I can feel comfortable enough
18:38to be silly with and be a big kid
18:40and sing in the shower and dance naked.
18:43I know, right?
18:45Cos that's who I am. I'm Peter Pan.
18:47I'm just a big kid.
18:49Do you like to stroke your boyfriends?
18:51Erm...stroke?
18:53You know, like those little tickle strokes in bed?
18:55I'm a very affectionate person.
18:57I love cuddles. I love kissing.
18:59I've been told I'm quite a good kisser.
19:01Oh, yeah? Good.
19:03I know I've got so much to give,
19:05but I just want someone to give me the chance.
19:07Yeah. Why do you think girls aren't giving you the chance?
19:10I think they might look at my profile, like my Instagram,
19:12or when they see me in a bar,
19:14and they might just think he's looking for a one-night stand.
19:16Right. Do you feel like you give fuckboy energy?
19:19No. So why would they think that?
19:21I just think, like, just appearance.
19:23I don't go around, like, chatting to a girl.
19:25Like, I don't know. OK.
19:27I'm just a big kid who, like, just wants to have fun
19:29and just love someone.
19:31Yeah. Is that too much to ask for?
19:33I know!
19:35I want you to remember me, OK?
19:37It's Sam from London. OK.
19:43I'm quite an emotional guy,
19:45and I do wear my heart on my sleeve.
19:47Hello, hello, hello. Hello.
19:49I like the sound of your voice.
19:51I like the sound of yours.
19:53My name's Nicole. What's yours?
19:55Nicole. My name's Sam.
19:57Aesthetically, people think,
19:59oh, no, come on, Sam, you can get any girl you want.
20:01Yeah. I wish it was that easy, you know?
20:03Come on. That's why I'm single.
20:05Do you train? Do you go to the gym?
20:07I do work out.
20:09OK, well, we can train.
20:11Do you train? I do train.
20:13OK. But I've trained because it's just made me feel amazing.
20:15Like, do you ever yoga with someone?
20:17I do Vikram. I've done Vikram,
20:19and I do some yoga.
20:21I'm just the most unflexible person you'll ever meet.
20:23Oh, don't worry, I'll teach you, baby.
20:25Yeah, I need to loosen up a little bit, actually.
20:27OK, OK. Apparently, I'm quite a good smooth talker,
20:29so that's all right.
20:31OK. OK, good. Good.
20:33So, are you big on family?
20:35I actually think that you can choose your family, you know?
20:37You could also choose your husband, too.
20:39Ah!
20:41Yes, you can.
20:43Yeah, and if you saw me,
20:45then I think you might be impressed.
20:47OK, all right.
20:49So, say you're 90 and you're looking back at your life.
20:51What does that life look like for you?
20:53I think if I could put it into a book,
20:55it would be a book.
20:57That would be one of the best books that someone could ever read.
20:59OK.
21:01Because the chapters of that book
21:03would entail a love story of romance
21:05that would be so beautiful,
21:07it would make you cry.
21:09Ah!
21:11There we go.
21:13You're very sweet, aren't you?
21:15You seem like you sound like a very...
21:17But the sweet guy never wins.
21:19I'm just hoping someone understands me.
21:21But you know what?
21:23You're making me a bit scared, if I'm honest.
21:25Yeah.
21:27Because I feel like you're saying a lot of the right things
21:29and it's making me kind of a bit afraid, you know?
21:33I've been married before
21:35and it didn't work out,
21:37but, like, I never lost hope
21:39when it came to finding someone
21:41I want to spend my life with.
21:43So I think, for me,
21:45I'm ready, but it's scary to do that.
21:47All right, remember the name, Sam, OK?
21:49Sam!
21:51Sam from London, OK?
21:53I know what I'm looking for now more than I've ever known.
21:55I'm here
21:57because I've been doing it the traditional way.
21:59Hello!
22:01Hello.
22:03Hello.
22:05And I want to explore an alternative way
22:07to meet potentially the love of my life.
22:09I think I'm finally ready
22:11to give love a second chance.
22:13My name's Nicole.
22:15What's yours?
22:17Nice. My name is Benaiah.
22:19Benaiah? Ooh, very interesting name.
22:21Are you Hawaiian?
22:23No, but I can be.
22:25So tell me about yourself.
22:27Born and raised just outside Preston.
22:29My family live in Germany.
22:31OK.
22:33Are you planning to stay in Preston?
22:35No, no, no, no, no.
22:37To be fair, I've not lived there for ten years,
22:39but I've lived and travelled abroad
22:41and even now I'm technically homeless.
22:43What?
22:45That's kind of, you know, scary, isn't it?
22:47I'm not living on the street.
22:49Oh!
22:51So I'm freelance, self-employed
22:53and I just house it as and where the work is.
22:55That's amazing.
22:57I think that is an incredibly brave way to live.
22:59I mean, I've hitchhiked from Preston to Budapest.
23:01Wow!
23:03Yeah.
23:05You're really cool.
23:07A lot of times what I want to do is just up and just leave
23:09and just, like, be free
23:11and just, like, go somewhere, you know?
23:13Yeah.
23:15It's like I value conscious living.
23:17Yes.
23:19I do work a corporate job.
23:21Yeah.
23:23For me, this kind of thing is like a means to an end
23:25to, like, a life of freedom
23:27and a life of...
23:29Off-grid living is, like, what I really like.
23:31Yes, exactly that, yeah.
23:33And I'm someone who's quite conscious
23:35of, like, mind, body and spirit.
23:41That is something that I think about
23:43a hell of a lot.
23:45Ah, do you?
23:47Yeah, that is, yeah, brilliant.
23:49What do you do for fun outside of work?
23:51Honestly, I go hiking.
23:53I do a lot of outdoor yoga in the garden,
23:55sometimes naked, but we won't discuss that.
23:57Oh, interesting.
23:59I want to see your face.
24:01Benaiah is
24:03an inspirational character.
24:05We have a lot in common,
24:07and it's just, honestly, a breath of fresh air.
24:09He's a great guy.
24:11That was good.
24:13That was very good.
24:15I really like him.
24:25Does anyone else have this thing
24:27where they don't want certain things in their mouth,
24:29like, at the start of the day?
24:31Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
24:33Yeah, boy!
24:35Let's get it on.
24:37We need a song, we need a song.
24:39Make this girl on Monday.
24:41Ah, shut up.
24:43We'll make it love by Wednesday
24:45And on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
24:47We're chilled on Sunday
24:49I feel it coming
24:51I'm ready for it
24:53My heart is soaring
24:55I'm up so high
24:57The idea so far has been excellent.
25:00First thing I thought about
25:02when I woke up this morning was Sabrina.
25:04The last time I had a date with her,
25:06I left there feeling quite smitten.
25:08We think the same, her mindset's the same.
25:10She's very much like me in her approach to life.
25:12Hello.
25:14Hi, Stephen, how are you?
25:16I'm fantastic. Me too.
25:18I was looking forward to seeing you.
25:20Same. I think yesterday surprised me a little bit
25:22just at how much we connected.
25:24Yeah, when I left the room with you,
25:26it got a bit emotional.
25:28That's really sweet.
25:30I'm a happy bunny.
25:32Me too. It'd be great to understand
25:34what is it that you're actually looking for
25:36because we haven't really touched on that.
25:38Basically, someone to grow with
25:40and have new adventures
25:42and experiences with
25:44but also at the same time
25:46still go out and do our own things.
25:48Love that.
25:50What about you?
25:52I love someone who's confident in themselves.
25:54Doesn't necessarily need to be the same as everyone else
25:56and I think that's so sexy if you own your vibe.
25:58Yeah, in terms of confidence,
26:00I definitely wear things that get reactions.
26:02That's good to know.
26:04Like my swimwear style.
26:06Oh, my God, what do you wear? Go.
26:08I've got to pop out the budgie smugglers.
26:10Oh, God.
26:12The speedos.
26:14Love that.
26:16Listen, I've got great legs and I want an even tan.
26:18OK, just walk ten steps behind me at all times.
26:20Why are you running off?
26:22I've got your drink.
26:24So what are you wearing today?
26:26What's your vibe?
26:28I've got a T-shirt on that says
26:301% better every day.
26:32Oh, I love that.
26:34What are you wearing?
26:36Just a little black tee.
26:38Nice. Do you wear jewellery?
26:40Yes, I have a little bracelet that says Gigi on it
26:42from my granny who I was very, very close to
26:44and then I have a couple of necklaces on
26:46and then I have Gigi's ring on.
26:48Nice.
26:50What about you?
26:52I have a ring on my pinky finger
26:54so when he passed away
26:56I think I was about eight years of age.
26:58Oh, my God, stop.
27:00As I've got older
27:02it's literally been on every single finger
27:04even my thumbs.
27:06That literally makes my heart swell.
27:08That's so lovely.
27:10I love that.
27:12I love that you've worn that on every finger.
27:14We already know we're the same people.
27:16I definitely feel
27:18a very strong connection with you.
27:20Good, good.
27:22What about children?
27:24OK.
27:26Shall we get into it?
27:28Yeah.
27:30I feel like when I do meet someone
27:32it's more important to me that I have
27:34a really good foundation with husband and wife
27:36and I think that's important.
27:38If I didn't have children
27:40I think I'd be OK.
27:42Right, OK.
27:44OK.
27:48What about you?
27:50Um...
27:52Yeah.
27:54I've always thought
27:56that I would have my own child.
27:58Um...
28:00A little mini-me that is part of my DNA.
28:10I don't feel the urge
28:12to have kids or else I'm not going to
28:14feel happy in myself and in my life.
28:16But I feel very deflated
28:18on how that conversation had ended.
28:20I can really feel that there is a connection there
28:22with Stephen, so I'm hoping
28:24that I get a chance to talk about that a little bit more.
28:34See you in a bit, Mum.
28:36All the best, boys. Time to date.
28:38Yes, sir.
28:40Are you telling me what?
28:42I'm General.
28:44My boy, Freddie, is going on.
28:48So I've been single for three years now.
28:50My last relationship...
28:52It ended badly.
28:54I found out
28:56he was expecting a baby with another girl
28:58while he was texting me
29:00saying, we're going to do this, we're going to do that.
29:02So, yeah, complete betrayal.
29:04Manipulation, just lies.
29:08Hello?
29:10Who is it?
29:12Jasmine. It's Sam.
29:14Oh, hi, Sam. Hey, how's it going?
29:16So I think my perspective's changed.
29:18I'm exhausted.
29:20I want someone to stabilise me emotionally.
29:22You know? I'm here to find my soul mate.
29:24I really wanted to see you again.
29:26Oh, that's good. How about you?
29:28You know what? I did have, like,
29:30a few doubts about some of the comments
29:32that you made.
29:34Go on, go on.
29:36Like the Instagram thing, you were like,
29:38oh, people may perceive me, you know,
29:40as something different.
29:42OK, let's say I've done six months training, right,
29:44and I've got my body in, like, a good condition.
29:46I was like, why not? I'm going to put a picture of me
29:48with my top off. Like, I've only ever done that once.
29:50OK. But what I meant probably more was
29:52is, like, if I'm standing at a bar,
29:54I might get some attention,
29:56but you wouldn't realise, like,
29:58what an amazing person I am, potentially.
30:00So I know I've got a lot to offer.
30:02I think beauty is just skin deep.
30:04Do you think that? 100%.
30:06Like, I believe what's inside is more important.
30:08OK. That's good to know.
30:10Jasmine is incredible.
30:12Since day one, I have those butterflies
30:14in my stomach. Just everything about her
30:16kind of matches what I'm kind of
30:18looking for.
30:22Sorry, you just threw me a little bit, yeah.
30:24Why?
30:26I don't know. You're, like, the only person who's kind of, like,
30:28knows... I don't know.
30:30Just gave me a bit of a butterfly.
30:32Yeah.
30:34Yeah. Go on, I'm being all soppy.
30:36That's cute.
30:38I want Amanda. It makes me feel safe.
30:40Cos I've got a lot of love to give.
30:44I feel like I have a very maternal side
30:46to me, so I would love to settle down,
30:48have a family of my own, and just
30:50in reality, just to be chosen.
30:52Hello.
30:54Hi. This is Bobby.
30:56Oh, hi, Bobby. Who's this?
30:58Jasmine. I want a certified lover boy.
31:00That's what I want. Where are you from?
31:02Stoke-on-Trent. Where are you from?
31:04I'm actually from North London. OK.
31:06But I've moved quite a lot. I'm a bit of a nomad.
31:08Oh, I love that. I'm a bit of a nomad.
31:10I was living in Mexico last year for, like, five months.
31:12Are you a tequila drinker? Of course.
31:14Oh, my God. It's rude not to in Mexico.
31:16We need a few cocktails in here.
31:20The juice is flowing, you could say.
31:22But, yeah, so tell me a bit about you.
31:24Like, you know, what do you do?
31:26I'm a mental health nurse. Nice.
31:28How about you?
31:30I'm a luxury shopping guide on board cruise ships.
31:32Does that mean you travel quite a lot?
31:34Yeah, but obviously I don't want to work on cruise ships forever.
31:36I'm ready to move away from that lifestyle.
31:38Yeah. OK, that's good, that's good.
31:40So what do you think the most important thing
31:42is to you in a relationship?
31:44For me, it's one that I can really vibe with
31:46and connect with on all levels.
31:48And someone that is not just a partner... Yeah.
31:50..but is also a friend, you know.
31:52I'm very caring, very empathetic.
31:54I'm close to my family, mainly like my mum.
31:56You know, I come from a single-parent background,
31:58a single mother raised by my mum.
32:00I'm a real family person.
32:02I love family. I'm so close to my mum.
32:04We're like best friends.
32:06Because I do want to have a family of my own sometime.
32:08Soon, hopefully.
32:10I ideally would want to, you know,
32:12raise children in a household
32:14where our foundation is on 100.
32:16Yeah, for sure.
32:18Because at the end of the day,
32:20they're going to learn our dynamics.
32:22Mine and yours, you mean?
32:24Yeah.
32:26Being in the room with Jasmine
32:28is just a really trusting environment.
32:30She's super caring.
32:32I feel like I can be myself.
32:34And she does share the same qualities
32:36in terms of what I'm looking for in a potential wife.
32:38We should do it again sometime.
32:40Yeah, definitely.
32:42He's cute.
32:44I had a date with Bobby
32:46and it went really well.
32:48Even though they had a really,
32:50really good date with Sam.
32:52But something's telling me
32:54it's just not...
32:56You need to be with the right person for you.
33:06Cheers to love,
33:08forming better connections and confidence.
33:10Cheers!
33:12Cheers.
33:14Cheers to what doesn't kill you,
33:16makes you stronger.
33:18And let's fall in love and get married.
33:20Cheers!
33:26How you doing, buddy?
33:28I've been single since 2012.
33:30My only serious relationship ended then.
33:32That hit me quite hard.
33:34It's been hard to kind of open up properly since then.
33:36Yeah, I do believe in love.
33:38But yeah, I just haven't had much luck.
33:40Hello.
33:42Hi!
33:44It's Vinaya.
33:46It's Nicole.
33:48How you doing?
33:50I'm good, thank you.
33:52Great energy, the same sense of humour,
33:54which is really important to me.
33:56You know what, I was thinking about you yesterday.
33:58Likewise.
34:00Really?
34:02Yeah.
34:04Trying not to get too ahead of myself,
34:06but feeling excited for what the future might hold.
34:08You mentioned the mind-body-spirit.
34:10I was going to ask you more about that today.
34:12What your interpretation of that is?
34:14If you look after your mental capacity,
34:16how does that kind of impact your emotional capacity,
34:18which will then in turn affect your physical?
34:20Yeah, no, I love that.
34:22Like, I've just come to the realisation that
34:24there's so much greater than us
34:26that, like, damn, we are just lucky to be here.
34:28Do you know what I mean?
34:30Oh, yeah, the chances of our existence.
34:32Yeah!
34:34Let's just have fun on the ride, you know?
34:36That's my approach.
34:38Yeah, I think we're quite aligned on a few values,
34:40which is nice.
34:42Yeah.
34:44You know, you live sort of a nomadic lifestyle.
34:46Yeah.
34:48Are you going to be settled with your partner somewhere, or...?
34:50I'll just be off and they'll be at home.
34:52LAUGHTER
34:54Erm, I'd like a base.
34:56Mm-hm.
34:58You know, but with the travelling,
35:00it's an element of escapism.
35:02OK.
35:04Yeah, I had a difficult childhood,
35:06so that took its toll, I think,
35:08in terms of self-confidence,
35:10self-worth.
35:12Yeah.
35:14But now I'm at a very good stage.
35:16I feel at peace with everything.
35:18Mm.
35:20And it's taken a long time to get there,
35:22but it's a journey I'm glad I've gone through.
35:24I appreciate you telling me.
35:26I know we've just gone very deep there.
35:28That's very deep, isn't it? It's a lot, it's a lot.
35:30Yeah.
35:32The kind of life I envision with Benaiah
35:34is a free,
35:36liberating life.
35:38I admire the way
35:40he carries himself in conversation,
35:42the way he thinks.
35:44You've got a lot of, yeah, good character.
35:46I mean, like I always do, I love the energy.
35:48That's why I obviously like to see you again.
35:50Yeah.
35:52I'll catch you in a bit. OK.
35:56If I walk in the pods and I find out it's Nicole
35:58and I hear her voice,
36:00I do get excited.
36:02And,
36:04yeah, I'm looking forward to
36:06hopefully cementing a connection
36:08and taking it further from there.
36:10I like him.
36:20Have you got a favourite yet?
36:22I've met a guy who
36:24is literally the lifestyle that I want,
36:26but it's really important for him to have his own kids.
36:28It's just so deflating
36:30when you're having this incredible time
36:32talking about how your future could be,
36:34how yous are both so aligned,
36:36and then the whole conversation
36:38just flipped.
36:48Sabrina makes me smile.
36:50She stimulates my mind so much,
36:52and I've always said, if you capture my mind,
36:54you've got me.
36:56But she's definitely given me a conundrum.
37:02Hello, beautiful. How are you?
37:04Oh, scrambled.
37:06Yeah.
37:08Couldn't sleep last night.
37:10He was on my mind, for sure.
37:12After our date,
37:14woke up this morning
37:16apprehensive.
37:18Scared, maybe.
37:20Think it's basically because
37:22it's something that we need to talk about.
37:24Yeah, but it's very much the elephant in the room, isn't it?
37:26Yeah, it is, yeah.
37:28Right, so, honest truth,
37:30I know that I want to be a dad.
37:32Okay.
37:34Yeah, because I think I'll be a good dad.
37:36Yeah, I think so.
37:38Personally, for me,
37:40I don't think I have to have children.
37:42For me, it's really important
37:44to build a life as husband and wife
37:46first.
37:48And I fully respect that.
37:50I'm 35, so that would be a case of 38, 39.
37:52I might not even be able to conceive naturally anyway.
37:56I'm very open to surrogacy,
37:58so it would be our biological child
38:00or adoption.
38:06I'm here for that.
38:10That makes me feel really good.
38:14Oh, I want to hug you.
38:16Why has that been bothering me so, so much?
38:18Life brings
38:20difficult scenarios and conversations,
38:22so...
38:24Important to have them.
38:26Of course, it's how you tackle these hurdles in life
38:28that make you stronger, I suppose.
38:30Yeah.
38:32Can I ask you about your childhood, maybe?
38:34Um, so...
38:36My parents got divorced when I was, like, 13.
38:38And my dad...
38:42He wasn't around a lot,
38:44and it was always, like, me being like,
38:46when are we meeting up, what are we doing?
38:48And then it got to the point where I was like,
38:50I'm not going to contact him anymore,
38:52and let's just see how long it takes.
38:54And he never contacted me again.
38:56And my mum, we went out and she's like,
38:58look, I have to have a difficult conversation with you.
39:00It's not actually your father.
39:02Your father is from Italy.
39:04When you were younger, he wanted to move back to Italy
39:06and I wanted to stay in Ireland.
39:08It was obviously a lot for me to process.
39:10I was named after a person I'd never known
39:12and named after a person
39:14who wasn't actually my father
39:16and who didn't want to know.
39:18Sorry that you had to go through that
39:20and you haven't had the right man
39:22there for you.
39:24I think that's why sometimes
39:26I can be quite guarded with men
39:28and I do sometimes find it really difficult to let my guard down.
39:30Oh, I don't want to get choked up.
39:32You OK?
39:34Yeah.
39:36Take a second if you need to.
39:40I don't think at any point
39:42I felt like you've been guarded.
39:44Kind of hurting me to know that you've been through that.
39:46Oh, no, we're good.
39:48We're good.
39:50Listen, there's something you need to know about me.
39:52OK.
39:54I was seeing somebody,
39:56long-term girlfriend,
39:58who at one point I thought
40:00probably was my person that I was going to get married to.
40:02OK.
40:04She was ill
40:06for quite a few months
40:08just sporadically
40:10and we didn't know why.
40:12Eventually,
40:14she had a consultation
40:16and the consultant
40:18came in
40:20and he then proceeded to say
40:22that they found a tumour.
40:24Oh, my God.
40:26For
40:28the next
40:30few months, I watched
40:32someone
40:34who
40:36I loved dearly
40:40basically fight for her life.
40:44I can't even comprehend
40:46how difficult that
40:48must have been.
40:50After
40:52about eight months,
40:54she
40:56basically
40:58sat beside me and just said,
41:00I can't do this anymore.
41:02Just need to focus on me.
41:06It was tough.
41:12Can I ask, is she OK?
41:14I think so.
41:16At the time, I just cared about her
41:18and if that was the deal that
41:20she'd survive but we wouldn't,
41:22then that
41:24was fine by me.
41:26Are you OK? Yeah.
41:28I wish I could give you a hug.
41:30It's something that
41:32was difficult but it's defined
41:34who I am and my approach
41:36today in life, for sure.
41:38You're stronger probably for it.
41:40You have a very unique
41:42outlook in life, which I really respect and appreciate.
41:44Honestly,
41:46I feel closer to you today.
41:48That's a good sign that you can
41:50be vulnerable with someone.
41:52Yeah.
41:54For sure.
42:02I think this is where this really challenges your
42:04vulnerability and your insecurities.
42:06I came in here wholeheartedly hoping that I would
42:08meet someone but I didn't
42:10expect this.
42:12I feel like our hearts and our minds are so aligned
42:14and I can just see us having this
42:16incredible life together.
42:28That's a good
42:30smile. Yes.
42:32Relief, relief, relief,
42:34relief. Dealt with it,
42:36got through it. We're strong.
42:38She went really vulnerable.
42:40Oh yeah. It was only natural that I
42:42then did because the trust was there.
42:44Connection for real.
42:46Connection for real.
42:50With Stephen, I feel like I could say anything
42:52and he'd back me and would help me be the best
42:54possible version of myself.
42:56My logical brain is still a bit like,
42:58Sabrina, what are you doing?
43:00I don't think I would have ever given him a chance
43:02in the real world. Yeah.
43:04That's my biggest concern.
43:10I have got on with Oli
43:12from day one. Hello.
43:14Oli. It's Kat, isn't it? Yeah.
43:16But it's hard
43:18with Freddie in the back of my
43:20head. Freddie.
43:22How you doing? You OK? Yeah, you?
43:24Yeah, not bad. We are bonding.
43:26He's funny. I like him.
43:28What's your last name?
43:30Powell.
43:32Yeah.
43:34What's your last name?
43:36Paul.
43:38What's your last name?
43:40Powell.
43:42Are you a sassy mother?
43:44No.
43:46Catherine Powell. Yeah, I think that works.
43:48My middle name's Mary.
43:50Is it? Yeah.
43:52It's named after my gran.
43:54My nana was called Mary.
43:56Stop, I'm going to cry.
43:58Isn't that crazy?
44:00What was your granddad called?
44:02Bill.
44:04No. Yeah.
44:06Stop.
44:08Do you know what my granddad was called?
44:10Bill.
44:14What the hell?
44:16Are you joking?
44:18That's mad. Is that mad?
44:20Yeah, I'm really in shock.
44:22I'm properly confused.
44:24That's weird, isn't it?
44:26With Freddie,
44:28it's just mind-blowing.
44:30I feel a sense of home.
44:32I want to cuddle.
44:34Unfortunately, it's a while, in a way.
44:36We have things in common,
44:38as in, like, family.
44:40We can relate on a deep level,
44:42and we understand.
44:44But Ollie's got my head confused.
44:46Behind closed doors,
44:48I'm very affectionate,
44:50I'm very hands-on.
44:52I won't really walk past you without grabbing your waist
44:54or pulling you in for a cuddle or a kiss.
44:56Oh, my God, stop.
44:58That's just how I am.
45:00Something's there.
45:02I can't see him.
45:04But he's sexy.
45:08I'm in my comfy zone today.
45:10I think tomorrow's when I'm going to get fully comfy.
45:12Should we go PJs?
45:14I don't wear PJs.
45:16Well, that's answering one question.
45:20No, you boxers.
45:22Yeah, sometimes less.
45:24OK.
45:26What do you wear?
45:28I wear, like, sports bra
45:30and shorts.
45:32OK, like the sexy loungewear, almost.
45:34We can go for sexy loungewear.
45:36OK.
45:38I'm in a sticky predicament between Demi and Kat.
45:40They're both such amazing people.
45:42I feel like Katherine's presenting
45:44a very sexual, seductress image,
45:46but I'm keen not to base it solely on that
45:48because I've realised that that doesn't always
45:50lead me to the right girl.
45:52Hello.
45:54I'm so happy it is you.
45:56Demi's still playing it a little bit more cool,
45:58but straight away there was a vibe, there was an energy there,
46:00so they're both causing problems in my mind.
46:04So, ooh, I've got a question for you.
46:06Go on, then.
46:08Like, I'm feeling really, like, rubbish.
46:10I'm being a bit snappy.
46:12How would you handle that?
46:14I'd probably just go and stay with one of my friends for the weekend.
46:16Oh!
46:18The whole weekend?
46:20I'm playing, I'm playing.
46:22I'll do whatever I need to do to bring you out of it.
46:24All right, so what are you going to do?
46:26I need space. You don't strike me as someone that needs space.
46:28You strike me as someone that needs cuddles
46:30and forehead kisses.
46:32That is so weird.
46:34Why?
46:36Because before, I would say, like, I need space,
46:38but I don't.
46:40I need reassurance.
46:42You can sometimes have space
46:44while someone is still really close. Does that make sense?
46:46Yeah, like, we don't have to talk,
46:48but you can hold me.
46:50100%.
46:52That's good. I like that response.
46:54Yeah.
46:56Ollie is just amazing.
46:58I honestly feel he's the most open-minded,
47:00pure soul
47:02that I've met.
47:04The way he views life
47:06is very similar to me.
47:08I really feel like he's the one.
47:10What I'm
47:12worried about at this stage is, like,
47:14I know where my heart is,
47:18so I don't want to
47:20be too open or vulnerable
47:22where my heart is.
47:24So, where's your heart at?
47:32Like,
47:34here.
47:36OK. Like, right now,
47:38I'm not 100% sure.
47:42I mean,
47:44I know what I want,
47:46but I'm not 100% sure who that is,
47:48and I'm being real with you when I say that, and that's fine,
47:50because you're probably in the same boat.
47:56You know, but with you,
47:58I feel like we've got a combination of all
48:00of the things that I'm looking for.
48:02But if I'm being honest,
48:04I'm still kind of
48:06giving the other girl a chance.
48:10Yeah.
48:12Yeah.
48:14Yeah.
48:18It's tough.
48:20I'm feeling an element of guilt
48:22in talking to Kat the way I'm talking to her,
48:24and then talking to Demi the way I'm talking to her,
48:26because I don't want to be leading either one of them on,
48:28and so it's about trying to manage that
48:30in the best way I can.
48:32And I don't know that I can, because I've never done this before,
48:34but we're trying. We're trying.
48:40Do you have a connection with Oli?
48:42We have a good date.
48:44We're cool.
48:46But I know that you're very much involved,
48:48and he's probably very much involved with you.
48:50He's told me that he goes on good dates and stuff,
48:52but I would just hate for him to be lying to me.
48:54If there's a deep connection,
48:56then just tell me.
48:58Yeah, I will. But I need time.
49:00I really like Oli.
49:02Katherine really likes Oli.
49:04She's my friend. I really like her.
49:06But I want Oli, so...
49:12I find it very hard to put myself first,
49:14because I'm people,
49:16and it sucks.
49:18I'm not here to hurt my friends,
49:20but I'm also not here to sacrifice
49:22my connection, because my friend
49:24likes him.
49:26It's time for me to put myself first.
49:28Otherwise, I will end up at home,
49:30on my own, with ten cats.
49:32And I don't even like cats.
49:36It's hard. Obviously, I want you to explore it with Oli.
49:38I know you do.
49:40It sucks.
49:42I think Demi has a strong connection with Oli.
49:44I really do.
49:46Do I see them on the outside world together? No.
49:48I don't want to get in.
49:50My mouth gets me in trouble.
50:00It's an amazing experience, man.
50:02It's crazy, man.
50:04The emotions, the intensity,
50:06how lucky I am to have made a connection
50:08with Sabrina, purely focusing
50:10on a voice,
50:12a beautiful voice that's winning me over.
50:14And you can't explain it.
50:16I know.
50:18Falling in love with someone that I haven't seen
50:20is the bizarrest concept
50:22ever, but the feelings
50:24are more real than they've ever been
50:26before.
50:32I'm thinking about Sabrina all the time.
50:34I'm looking at ways to make her happy,
50:36ways I want to surprise her.
50:38I wouldn't want another partner in crime
50:40if I'm being honest with you.
50:42Hello.
50:44Hello, beautiful.
50:46How are you?
50:48I love
50:50hearing your voice. Your voice is calming me.
50:52Yeah, same.
50:54By your side,
50:56can you see a little white thing?
51:00Can you read out what it says
51:02to me?
51:04It says,
51:06you stole my mind and now my heart too.
51:10So,
51:12that's actually the start of the poem
51:14that I wrote for you.
51:16Oh, my goodness.
51:22So,
51:24there might be a couple of pauses to bear with me.
51:30You stole my mind
51:32and my heart too.
51:36Can I say something crazy?
51:38I love you.
51:46Can I take your hand
51:48as I take a knee
51:56and ask you something crazy?
52:02Will you marry me?
52:14Stephen.
52:20Oh, my gosh. Where do you even start?
52:22You are genuinely
52:24incredible.
52:26You're just
52:28amazing.
52:30This has just been an incredible journey
52:32and I'm so grateful that I have gotten to do this
52:34with you.
52:38But...
