Yahoo News Celebs Go Dating star Helen Flanagan has unexpected first date question
Celebs Go Dating star Helen Flanagan asked a surprising question as she went on her first date of the series.
The reality show returned last night (August 19) with its 13th series, documenting the latest group of celebrities aiming to find love.
Following the events of the premiere, which saw the famous faces pick who they wanted to go on a date with, it was time for them to put their money where their mouth is as they sought to find a match.

Helen, best known for her role as Rosie Webster on Coronation Street, spent her evening with Luke, with the pair having to overcome an 11-year age gap. It didn’t seem to bother them, however, with physiotherapist Luke even working on Helen’s shoulders halfway through the date.
As the couple got to talking even more, Helen asked Luke if he would ever date a tall woman – one who is 6ft3 or above – with her date laughing as he struggled to find an answer. They later participated in a staring contest, which quickly turned into a kiss as they showed their attraction to each other.
Following the dates, the pair agreed to meet up for a follow-up. Helen said the pair had a “natural connection and flirtation”, whilst Luke added that he would be more than happy to return to a second date.

Helen is joined in the cast by Chris Taylor, Jamelia, Tristan Phipps, Ella Morgan and Stephen Webb – the latter revealed that he sought permission from his ex-husband, Daniel Lustig, to partake in the show.
“I did ask Daniel for his permission to do the show because we still live together, and if he had said, 'I'd prefer you not to do it', I wouldn't have done it, but he didn't,” he shared. “He said, 'I think you should do it. I think it'd be really good for you'. And so, I had his blessing.”
