Anyone else watching this programme? I love it and not just because my lovely friend is on it every week.


Cannot believe the behaviour of some people on their first date.. tonight a guy was constantly checking his phone and talking about going back to work after their lunch date. Then he insisted she answer first when they were asked if they wanted to see one other again. Despite his behaviour, she said 'yes def' and then he said 'no'. What an arse!


Someone the previous week used a calculator to work out the bill, after he'd ordered jaeger bombs but didn't fancy paying for them!

By the second time that guy checked his phone, I would have got up and walked out. On a date, phone goes out of site. Nothing says, "I have better things to be doing" than being on the phone for any reason whatsoever while in someone else's company. Total twat!


She is also a really poor judge of character not to have sussed which way he was going to decide. He clearly wants a Friend With Benefits, not a date to commit to.

I love First Dates, the staff are the icing on the cake as I love watching. The interest they have in the couples & their little asides.

The dates leave me with either a feeling warm glow of what early dates with Mr Buggie

felt like, or really, really glad that I'm well out of the dating game!

I love the staff too buggie, like hearing what they have to say about the couples. Fred Siriex is just great!


Agree I feel a warm glow when the dates go well, it is heart-warming to see but a tiny bit of me enjoys the sheer horror when they don't and it makes uncomfortable viewing.


not usually a fan of "celebrity" versions as I don't know any of them usually, watched it on Monday and was glad anthea turner gave the brush off to that ghastly city bore superglued to his mobile.

Definitely more Nunhead than Peckham - I've been to his house before for a party.

I'm not sure where the boundary of Nunhead lies (and I hasten to add I've certainly never seen "first dates"), but Nunhead green is a pretty easy walk from PR station - along Philip Walk or Scylla Rd - and Peckham Rye is approximately 5 times more useful than Nunhead station!

    • Dont forget the impact of the last banking crisis, covid, furlough and the energy price impact on the economy or aren't those factors that caused a financial black hole in your view of the world? 
    • Oh dear! The general response is that my experience of Jon Hartley is the norm. That’s bad. As an update to my issue with him, Ellie Reeves’ office advised that I contact the Southwark Labour Party Chief Whip in the first instance with my complaint. Coincidentally, the Chief Whip turns out to be Cllr Maggie Browning. She acknowledged my complaint and, in response, said that she had ‘spoken’ to Jon Hartley and appeared satisfied that he’d now responded to me. Not sure that’ s an adequate response, since it seems to been well-known that he consistently ignores constituents. Maggie will know that better than anyone as she’s paired with Jon in our Ward, and she’s having to pick up the stuff which he’s ignoring. As people have noted, Maggie does indeed respond to constituents but she’s now on maternity leave. Alas, I think that means we’re lumbered with just Jon. I’ve bypassed him in respect of my own issue, because I think he’s a waste of my time. In case anyone else should be having problems with him, especially now that Maggie Browning is away, I’d recommend emailing Ellie Reeves MP. Her office is very responsive in my experience and, if she hears from enough disgruntled constituents of Cllr Hartley, I imagine she be quietly speaking to the Southwark Constituency Labour Party about him. Ultimately, if he stands again, he won’t be getting my vote. Be annoyed people, be very annoyed ! Your vote should count for something and the candidates privileged enough to get it should do the job they were elected for!
    • Looking for packing boxes, please msg me if you can help!
    • My 7yo old daughter was really nervous about going to the podiatrist for verruca treatment. We went to Dulwich Podiatry and saw Zack, who was absolutely brilliant at making her feel calm and informing her of the process every step of the way. Just wanted to put a recommendation in for anyone who’s looking for somewhere to take a child who’s wary about any treatments.
