Who didn’t spend their Saturday evenings as a kid with Cilla and ‘Our Graham’?
It’s been eagerly anticipated and it’s finally here – we now have a trailer for the reboot of Blind Date.
It was recently confirmed that the hit show from the 80s and 90s was coming back to screens this year and that Paul O’Grady would host, while Melanie Sykes would take over Our Graham’s voiceover role.
We now have a first look at the new presenter and the first batch of contestants and we have to say we’re pretty excited!
Thankfully, it looks just as tongue-in-cheek as the original, so needless to say we’ll be tuning into Channel 5 on Saturday 17 June to see if anyone finds love.
Meanwhile, it was reported yesterday that Al Porter has been shadowing Paul O’Grady as he prepares to host a new Irish version of Blind Date.
TV3’s Bill Malone told the Sun that the Irish comedian will be perfect for the role.
“We want to bring Al’s hilarious personality to Blind Date. I think he will be absolutely brilliant as the host of our Blind Date,” he said.
