First Dates Ireland *read first post*

YellowLead

I think it’s ridiculous to pair somebody from cork and Dublin! That was bound to fail regardless.

Serial killer (watch this space) hippy dude is a total arse for not splitting when he didn’t want to see her again - I agree they weren’t in the same place though, blue hair seemed very airy fairy and not very considered though an absolutely lovely person and fair play to her saying she would have said yes after he’d said no, a lot of people would have been tempted to say that they also would have said no.

The bus driver and charity lady were both lovely and I hope they find happiness, albeit it’s not with each other.

Make up lady seemed nice but rather full on and even though she said she only USED to go for looks and muscles and now goes for nice, it’s probably hard for her to change that esp as she lost all the weight - her facial fillers and Botox make her look much older than her years though unfortunately. Her date seemed fairly affable, I’m sure there’s ladies out there for him on the same level.

Maybe they are running out of daters from Dublin alot of the people on the show are from rural areas from different countys most people don't want to get into a serious relationship with someone who lives over 30 miles away Most people would not want to go on a date thats shown on television

I don't believe someone actually named their son Biff. That's a name for a cartoon character I thought it was funny when the man said my name is biff and the host was slightly confused by it

There seems to be a formula one older couple one gay couple one couple that's younger eg in their twenty's or one couple that's average in terms of looks

They have to pick out people who will be interesting to the TV audience so they probably have a limited no of daters they can choose from

He said that his actual name was Brendan.

Two young gay fellas this week I liked. Nice to see some more "normal" lads for want of a better word, not repeating phrases of drag race or fake American accents, no crude oul sh1te either. Didn't see any spark romance wise, no shock.

Biffo and the blond lady grand I thought. Could tell she had not a notion of him romantically.

Hozier light what a complete and utter prick. Talking about vibes, he gave of very bad vibes right away for me. Purple hair she had a lucky escape for the cost of the bill! She seemed really nice maybe have her back on over that muppet from last week.

Bus driver guy was nice guy could tell he was a bit conscious of his teeth the whole time licking them, real shame he is a decent looking fella. His date seemed really grand too. Hope they find someone they deserve.

From the updates, the bus driver said he found someone, happy for him!

90 minute warning!

To be fair, I'd go with Biff over Brendan.

off the peg dunnes by the looks of it

The algorithm definitely needs recalibrating after matching Simon and your one.

I don't understand the whole No Spark thing. People don't seem to be prepared to let things grow or evolve!

The first thing in any relationship is enjoying being in the other person's company.

I think it's the politer way of not saying "you give me the ick".

Sometimes you just know that no matter what, you're never going to fancy someone.

Can't believe none of them matched up for good. They all seemed to be very well matched.

OK, the Lab technician lad who had never eaten jam or crisps before may have sounded a bit odd at times, and Co. Down to Limerick is a long way, but the others were well suited to each other.

YellowLead

It was a decent episode last night! They all seemed like nice people and well matched. More of this please!

Though the fact that they continue to match people from opposite ends of the country is ridiculous

That’s it. In some cases it can grow but there are definitely people you know straight away you will never fancy / find attractive.
