Just when you thought it was over bonus episodes of First Dates is upon us, looking back at all the memorable moments of season nine.
Kildare woman and fire breathing pocket rocket Oriel is set to feature on the episode.
Tonight, on RTÉ 2 at 9.35pm First Dates are set to celebrate the most memorable matchups of the season, a cavalcade of killer lines and cringy clangers, loved-up lotharios, awky mo-mos, bathroom besties and beautiful dreamers.
They’re all here from the boy who unleashed his inner hedgehog to the couple who bonded over a house fit for a mouse.
Who could forget how shy Joseph from Donegal was coaxed into direct contact with multilingual tech translator Hyeji? Or the ‘wardrobe malfunction’ that bonded non-binary civil servant Bel from Wicklow and pansexual Dublin hairdresser, Sam? And if you like your dates in double time, we revisit the four way matchup of returning dater ‘MC Daycent’ Gary from Tipperary, his ‘worst wingman ever’ young brother Anthony, Bart Simpson fan Angie from Brisbane.
All this, and so much more. Welcome back. Your table awaits.
