Celebs Go Dating's Eyal tells brunette he likes blondes
After last night's awkward series opener of Celebs Go Dating – in which former Sugababes singer Mutya Buena was friendzoned by regular civilian Jordan – Love Island's Eyal Booker kept things suitably uncomfortable in tonight's episode (October 15).
Eyal chose to go on a date with Claudia, and it didn't take him long to realise he'd made a terrible mistake. The two of them struggled to exchange more than one-word answers, spending most of the time sitting incredibly still and filling the impossibly long moments of silence by sipping their drinks.

One viewer tweeted: "Oh god this date is so awks! She literally had nothing to say."
While another wrote: "Omg Eyal's date it's like pulling teeth!"
Things somehow managed to get more awkward, though, when Claudia, a brunette, asked Eyal what his type is, only for him to reply: "Blondes."
Claudia: 'Whats your type?' Eyal: 'Blondes' - her face tho... cheque please #CelebsGoDating

Brunette gal to Eyal, on their first date (after he chose her out of a mixer with LOADS of women):
“So what’s your type?”
Eyal: “Blondes.”
Cue awkward silence. #CelebsGoDating #Brutal- Bridget (@KnickersBridget) October 15, 2018

Realising there was absolutely no chance the two of them were going to get married and have babies, Eyal called for an early cheque, but not before delivering an unintentional double entendre: "I'm just looking for someone with heavy flow."
Oddly, the only thing that didn't make viewers cringe was the fact that Eyal turned up to the date on a bloody scooter.
Eyal has left his Date early as his mates have called him to meet them at the local scooter 🛴 Park 😂#CelebsGoDating
