Tonight's Blind Date had an awkward marriage proposal
Blind Date has now become a staple of our Saturday nights once again, and tonight (July 22) we got to meet a new raft of singletons looking for love.
We certainly had a few interesting characters, kicking off with flight attendant Sophie, who was quick to mention that she "would do anything at the drop of a hat". Ooh err.
However, she got quite the answer when she asked how rugged her potential new dates were… and everyone's skinny new fave Aidan less-than-fit the bill:
Aidan may not be rugged, but we're loving his banter! 👌 #BlindDate pic.twitter.com/Y57ZrEet2g

This lad from Fife sounds & looks as tho he's about 12 🙊#BlindDate

"How rugged are you Number 2?"
"I'd say a strong 5."
The audience laughing just then... #BlindDate- Russell Truran (@russelltruran) July 22, 2017

Sophie also brought in a bag of Harry Potter magic when she asked the guys what spell they would cast on her (cue jokes about wands):
How is Harry Potter geeky?#BlindDate

And while number one said he was a fan of the book series, his shirt-taking-off antics were not impressing some:

We also caught up with last week's Gary and Deborah, though the former made things rather awkward with a less-than-flattering comment:

Football mad hopeful Ted was also looking for love – and of course people had some opinions on him, especially after he dabbed:
all these beautiful babes and the guy that comes on looks like a fuckboy and he went and fucking dabbed. yawn. #blinddate

Oh dear.. Ted from Bromsgrove #commitmentphobe 😳😳 #blinddate

Sorry but Ted needs to sort his fringe out!! #blinddate pic.twitter.com/C2LHwoCuiJ

But we really do hope Ted's choice of Bea works out, especially after the show really splashed out on their date destination:
#blinddate Venice?? And the couple before got cocktails?
- Ben (@ben437) July 22, 2017
Wow so they saved the budget for the last date ;) #blinddate
- Coffee Fuelled (@_coffeefuelled) July 22, 2017

Meanwhile, we found out what happened with last week's couple Amy and Dom – and yep she actually discussed marriage:
