Grace is in the same age bracket as me and she is a cracker for her age. Loved her dress style, and she seems to be lovely as well and very well grounded.

An excellent catch for Phillip.

I'm not a fan of fake tan at all, but her fake tan was lovely. It looked a very even professionally applied job. Next to the pink of her dress it was very fresh and summery. Her make up was beautiful too.

She looked way better without it though.

When Rosie came in, there was a Momo sitting in the corner staring at her.

What do you mean?

Decent episode tonight.

Philip and Grace. Good match I thought. Slightly surprised at comments saying she looked stunning for her age. I thought she looked terrible on the date. Looked like she was caked in 2 inches of makeup and lying on a beach in Spain for 2 weeks. Looked older than 49 too. Looked better in the bits recorded before the date.
Ellie and young lad. They both seemed nice. I don't see the point of matching people so far away, especially when they're so young and won't have their own cars or be living away from home. Tipp and Kildare..at the very very least they have to pass through the whole width of Laois to see each other. Same with people from like Dublin and Cork. It's just not going to happen.
Ian and Ina. Ina looks like the waitress!!! I thought she'd say no. Come on dude...you don't answer what do you do with you're doing nothing. Say what you plan to do at least! No one wants a doler. And his accent was all over the place, sounded American, not Galway anyways. He wasn't funny for a comedian either.

PT and Bus Driver. Two doses well suited to each other. Couldn't believe when it said she was 28. If you told me she was 40 I would have believed you. And holy shiiiiet the after photo they took, she looked like a different person with all the makeup off. I find it a turn off when a woman is so open about wanting sex. I'd say she was cocked more times than John Waynes gun. She said he thought he looked 27 or 28. 🤣 The lad had awful wrinkles and could have passed for mid 40's.

Be careful what you say here.

Wouldn't want to be accused of being a bitter and twisted lemon trying to score some twisted point to protect the downtrodden straight white man in Ireland today.

Or something like that.

Cocked more times than John Wayne’s rifle, brilliant. I’d say she was seeing double after all the concoctions she downed.

Rosie not the shy, what would the naibours think kind of girl anyway, love her wish they were more of them. Spent a few years in the UK in my youth and by god there was plenty Rosies over there. they would tell you when they want it, how they want it, and by Jesus if you weren't in the hole of your health you weren't much good to them. So good on Rosie a great example of a women in good health.

The one funny thing he said was ‘our names’ when asked at the end what did they have in common.

But the highlight of the episode for me was ‘Momo’ sitting in the top corner of the screen when Rosie came in.

KathleenGrant · 26-02-2022 12:38AM

I just caught up tonight. I thought all the women looked amazing. I felt sorry for the Chinese girl, if she is as insecure as she said the refusal won't help the self esteem. I thought Grace looked wonderful, elegant and classy. I actually didn't see them hitting it off at all but was very happy for them. In fact I didn't see Rosie and Kevin being a match either. Sorry I didn't go on the programme myself now. Joined a dating site 2 weeks ago and haven't had any bit of interest.

Well recording for next series is only 5 or 6 months away so get applying :)

Great episode

Delighted for Phillip and Grace

Hope it works out . He seems like a lovely guy but carrying the scars of being rejected by his birth parents . That can’t be easy .

Some man to go into the marines as well :D

gmisk · 27-02-2022 08:38PM

Rosie.... I hate to say it but kind of errrr rough....that accent doesn't help. Total header alright. Kevin with the ginger beard seemed alright I guess but a guy at that age living at home without a good reason? Hmmmm...both looking the ride tbh lol

Grace...I honestly thought she would have no interest in her date romantically from first glance. I got the feeling she came on to promote herself/new business to a degree. He seemed nice but extremely nervous, pretty interesting background to be fair and they had interesting conversations. Nice they both said yes to a second date and had some more since!

The comedian/unemployed fella Ian...kind of painful... honestly what was with the accent? I am guessing he is originally from America?!? Otherwise it makes absolutely zero sense. Ina...absolutely stunning lady (out of his league I thought tbh)..and to be honest she was far funnier than him ("I would talk to a packet of ham"). Kind of surprised she said yes to another date.

Jamie seemed sound, friendly cute, nice easy going fella. Ellie....was I hate to say it a bit painful....she seems high maintenance...I was exhausted just listening to her for the few minutes she was on screen, just as well she is cute. Maybe she will mature a bit seemed insecure. Did the decent thing and said no up front.

Hughie again next week....the act is getting very tiring to be honest

Ginger guy is a dreamer. Not in a good way either. He's around my neck of the woods.

I could say a lot but I won't.

Ina is a decent looking girl but she's not THAT hot either. I'd give her a 7/10. Ian came across as a weirdo to me. The photo they showed of them having drinks in the bar afterwards, with his arm around her and his hand on her arse basically, gave me a bad vibe. Bit of a Louis Walsh/Mel B vibe.

Apparently he kept landing on her doorstep and turned out to be intense.

That's not surprising to hear at all...

He's had several women before and he's tried to get them to give up very respectable careers to drive buses.

Also contacted exes of his saying he's going to buy a house for sale that's right beside his exes parents house.

Eek....that doesn't sound good at all...I am guessing they do basic background checks before people are on the show? I am guessing nothing showed up though.
