00:00It's your thing, do what you want to do, I can't tell you who to stop to do, it's your thing, do what you want to do, I can't tell you who to stop to do.
00:30Alright, let's make love happen, I'm Pluto, I'm a woman of the world, I'm a bitch, but kind at heart.
00:59Handsome is a bit of a shrimp, he wishes he could be this glam, but he just isn't.
01:08Bitch, I said what I said, I...
01:11So tell me, are you nervous about Handsome going on a blind date?
01:15Oh absolutely, absolutely, I'm terrified for that poor, poor thing.
01:20Like most celestial bodies, Pluto has a bright side and a dark side, and the same is true of Handsome.
01:30Okay, it's a poll, it's a poll.
01:33Hello.
01:34Hi, there's your name please.
01:35I'm Handsome.
01:36Mr. Handsome, pleasure to meet you.
01:38You too.
01:39Should we bring you to the bar, you want to have a drink?
01:41Yes.
01:41Yes, definitely.
01:42Follow me please.
01:44I enjoy being single, but I guess I'm just looking to move on from that and get the ride.
01:51You know, it's been a while.
01:56I'm barren, I'm bone dry here.
01:59Come on first dates, help a bitch out.
02:02I'm trying to pick my cocktail, and I thought a porn star might give the wrong idea.
02:07Well, we call them pop star martinis in here.
02:09Oh, I call them screaming orgasms on the beach.
02:11Um, because that's usually how it ends up.
02:15I mean, you should definitely have one.
02:16I don't know, maybe.
02:18What do you do with yourself?
02:20Um, I'm a barista by day and a drag artist by night.
02:23Oh, cool.
02:25I think romance has taken the back seat, but I think it's time for, I think it's time for it to start driving.
02:32There you go, and then you take a drink.
02:35And now you're officially a porn star.
02:36And I'm about to have a screaming orgasm on the beach.
02:38Exactly, yeah, yeah.
02:39I'm going to go in with an open mind, open heart, and open legs.
02:47If Kieran seems content, it's because he enjoys the best things in life, often at the same time.
02:56How do you prepare yourself for a date?
02:58A can in the shower.
03:00It's great because you've got the hot water from the shower, and then you've got, like, the ice-cold beer,
03:04and you put on the little, you know, the little thing that you hold your soap in.
03:07Alexa's going 90 in the background, playing Florence Machine, most likely.
03:12It's amazing, yeah, it's great.
03:14How are you?
03:19How are you, mister?
03:20Your name is?
03:21Kieran.
03:21Nice to meet you, Kieran.
03:22Mateo.
03:23Mateo, yeah.
03:23Nice to meet you.
03:24Are you ready to do this?
03:26Try our best.
03:27Yeah, just bring your best out, and that's it, you know.
03:29That's all you can do, isn't it?
03:30All right.
03:31I feel like it's either going to be really, really good or really, really bad.
03:35You're either going to have someone that would be, like, a bit of me, or I'll walk in and I'll go,
03:40Oh, and suffer through dinner.
03:43All right, so?
03:45No.
03:47Hello.
03:48What's your name, sir?
03:49I'm Hanson.
03:49Nice to meet you.
03:50Hanson.
03:51Yeah, you.
03:51Kieran.
03:52Kieran, nice to meet you.
03:53Glad to meet you.
03:54How are you?
03:55Yeah, good.
03:55How are you?
03:56Good, good, good.
03:57A couple of drinks in, so I'm feeling lit.
03:58As I should.
04:01Are you going to get a drink?
04:03Well, I imagine they have beer.
04:09Oh, yeah, for sure.
04:10So, yeah.
04:11I'll be fine with it at the menu.
04:13Hi, how are you?
04:14Hello.
04:14What's the crack?
04:14How are you?
04:15You like a drink?
04:16Um, what beer do you have?
04:17I've got Heineken.
04:18Would you like a bottle of Heineken?
04:19Yeah, yeah.
04:19Yeah?
04:20You're not into a porn star?
04:22No, not quite, no.
04:23No, no.
04:26Not five minutes in anyways, no.
04:28What's the crack?
04:40Mr. Bombastic.
04:43Some go weak in the presence of beauty.
04:46Stephen comes on strong.
04:48Are you a bit of a flirt?
04:50Yeah.
04:50Mr. Lova, Lova.
04:52Here, I can't help flirt with them if I like them.
04:56Do you know what I mean?
04:56Like...
04:57Every maverick needs an ice man to cool his jets.
05:03For Stephen, that's James.
05:05He's a class-wing man to be a good.
05:07Mr. Ro...
05:08He's just incredibly charming.
05:11It's infectious.
05:11Smooth.
05:12There it is.
05:14We're the complete opposite.
05:16On a date or a night out, I'm like...
05:18It's the wild one, and I've got my shit together.
05:20It's the best to look anyway.
05:23Cheers, man.
05:24Oh, it's also a left-door pull.
05:27There, yeah, no worries.
05:30How's things like?
05:31How are you doing?
05:32Double date, yeah.
05:32What was the connection?
05:33Friends or what?
05:34Two friends, yeah.
05:35We used to work together.
05:36Ah, cool.
05:37James wants instant wifey material.
05:39He's trying to find the one in a million.
05:43Ah, you're ready for some action, huh?
05:44Yeah, exactly.
05:45Hopefully, you both will fill your dreams, you know?
05:48Have you ever fallen for the same girl?
05:50That's not...
05:51Never gonna happen.
05:52If he even kissed the girl, she's off limits now.
05:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:56That's it.
05:57What are you thinking?
05:58Either an old-fashioned or a whiskey sours.
06:00I'm getting a porn star martini.
06:02Hey, here we go.
06:03Let's rock.
06:04Start as we need to go on.
06:06Hopefully, by the end of the night, we're both having that much fun that we're pushing our
06:09tables together.
06:10Yeah, that would be good buzz.
06:11That would be a good buzz.
06:12Here we go.
06:13Have a fantastic day, Jess.
06:15Let's see who comes to the door.
06:18Now, this is a menu for you and for you, and I'll pop back in a few minutes.
06:25Amazing.
06:28Are we feeling a starter and a main or a main and a dessert?
06:34Do you have a sweet tooth?
06:36I do, but I'd like to see what's happening first.
06:38Yeah, okay.
06:39Do you have any strategy when it comes to a date?
06:44Eh, no.
06:45If they like me, great.
06:46If they don't, okay, grand.
06:48Like, what's the point in trying to, like, be someone I'm not like?
06:55Okay, I think I will go for the spinach and ricotta and the cheesecake, yeah.
07:01Yeah.
07:02Cheesecake.
07:03Do you like cheesecake?
07:04Yeah, not that one.
07:05What's wrong with this one?
07:06I just like the real, like, basic ones.
07:07Okay, like a vanilla.
07:08Lemon.
07:09Okay.
07:10Like, I don't like when it's fucking like a chocolate bar.
07:11I love it when it's a chocolate bar.
07:12I feel like that's the best.
07:13I'm not a fan, personally.
07:14I think I'm confident.
07:15I'm friendly.
07:16I feel like even if the date wasn't going quite well, I would still try to make the most
07:23out of it.
07:24I'm just going to go for the cheesecake.
07:25I'm just going to go for the cheesecake.
07:26I'm going to give it a chance.
07:27Give it a chance.
07:28Absolutely.
07:29That's what today's all about.
07:30Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:31100.
07:32Oh, there you go.
07:33Perfect.
07:34Thank you so much.
07:35Not at all.
07:36Cheers.
07:37Thank you so much.
07:38Cheers.
07:39Cheers.
07:55So, what would your taste be?
07:57Small, cute girl next door sort of thing.
08:00Okay.
08:01I like unique style, like, something kind of a bit different.
08:04Not next door.
08:05Like, four doors down.
08:06Yea.
08:07I just want to meet somebody who's bubbly, who's jokey.
08:10The one big thing about me is I'm really positive.
08:13And I always want to bring everyone else around me up as much as I can.
08:16I have a dark sense of humor.
08:17I want somebody who's clearly, like, when I make a joke, they're like, oh, my God, I can't
08:22Then says something back and you're like ah nice. Yeah, so somebody who can give as good as they get when they come in
08:28How do they know like because they don't know who we are they don't know our names?
08:31Well, we know who's for who now when they walk in I think so
08:37Here comes Jade down from Newry and up for a challenge
08:42I usually like a bit of a cheeky chap like someone that can go a bit more toe-to-toe
08:46Someone that will tell me to shop, but also like I won't it'll be like I'm not gonna say what you're saying
08:53But nice try it's real cute when you think you wear the pants
09:09Where's the accent from maybe northern I think she's northern you like it who doesn't like a northern accent
09:14Just enjoy it. Enjoy the moment. No, this is lovely Jade
09:34Hello, how are you? How are you doing? Not too bad. I'm in between two
09:38Which one do you prefer?
09:44That's a very good answer
09:46No, no, no, no, I'm a lovely girl. What are you on about?
09:49I do like to watch someone squirm on a day like I'll go in and I'll be like so what's your childhood trauma?
09:54Like what's the worst thing that ever happened to you?
09:56I'll just watch them until the answer
09:59I'm a bit fucked off, but I'm actually just fully enjoying myself

10:14Siobhan has a refreshing strategy when it comes to dating
10:18Read the room, adapt accordingly
10:21Do you think you're a bit of a flirt?
10:26I think it's fun. It's so fun though
10:29Hi
10:33Welcome
10:34How are you?
10:35I'll take that for you
10:36Thank you
10:37No problem
10:38I bounce off other people
10:39So if your crack is 90, my crack is 90
10:42Welcome
10:43Thank you so much
10:44I look at you, I look lovely
10:45Thank you, no more on yourself
10:46Thank you
10:47If the vibe is a bit off, then you go and order an extra shot
10:50If the vibe is there, you leave it half an hour
10:53All right, so
10:57We have a small addition over here
10:59Lovely to meet you
11:00Sorry, James
11:01Oh, lovely to meet you
11:02I'm Siobhan
11:03Siobhan, lovely to meet you
11:04Hi, how are you?
11:05Nice to meet you, how are you?
11:06I'm good, thank you
11:07Lovely to meet you, Stephen
11:08Thank you
11:09Thank you
11:10James, Jade, Siobhan and Stephen
11:14First thing that came through my mind is
11:16I was hoping that Siobhan was going to be the one for me
11:18Where are you from yourself?
11:19Mayo
11:20Mayo?
11:21Castle Bar
11:23Really?
11:24Yeah, do you know Castle Bar?
11:25I know it very well, yeah
11:26I went to college in GMIT Castle Bar
11:28That's where I'm going now
11:29Stop
11:30Yeah, yeah
11:32And do you live round here or?
11:34Nah, we're both travelling up as well
11:35She's the only person who lives in Dublin
11:37Okay
11:38House party
11:39Yeah, after your house
11:40I don't know if you two are invited yet or not though
11:45Me and James got on really well with both of them
11:48And that was actually a problem
11:51When's your birthday?
12:08What's my star sign like?
12:11You don't follow star signs I'm guessing
12:13Me neither
12:16Me neither
12:17But it's a nice conversation starter
12:19Yeah, I'm not a star sign person though
12:26What do we think who's with who?
12:28I don't know
12:29I don't know either
12:32Because I didn't really ask for anything when it came to looks
12:35Like the only thing I'll say is because I picked like really like odd
12:41Your hair is definitely like
12:43I've done it myself last night
12:44Right
12:45All right, okay
12:46So then that doesn't really count
12:47Yep
12:48It's really hard to tell
12:49Because like you both have little tattoos and stuff
12:51Yeah, we both
12:52You've more than me
12:53It's hard to tell
12:54You're literally checking them out up and down
12:56You asked that question and then
12:58Nice gaslighting me
13:00He's making me look bad
13:01I'm not
13:02This is where we find out
13:03Here we go
13:04Jade, follow me
13:07Let's do that
13:08Follow me
13:09Cheers man
13:10Cheers
13:11Best of luck guys
13:12Cheers man
13:13Enjoy
13:14It was nice meeting you
13:15I actually think I'm more nervous now
13:17Why?
13:18Now that I know where I'm going
13:20Obviously
13:21If it all goes well
13:22Then you'll all be probably heading out later
13:23I don't know
13:24Like Castle Bear
13:25Not going back to Castle Bear
13:27Is there accommodation going?
13:29Yes there is
13:30Oh!
13:31Straight to the point
13:32There's accommodation going
13:39Meet Tom
13:41A lonesome cowboy
13:42Looking for someone to share his home
13:44On the range
13:46I'm back in the saddle again
13:49I'd say I'm the only farmer around
13:51With no wife
13:52There's obviously something wrong with me
13:54Every Christmas dinner
13:56Is just about me getting a woman
13:58And they're all trying to
13:59Sort me out with women
14:00Up to probably a couple of years ago
14:03It wouldn't have bothered me one bit
14:05But I definitely don't want to be alone
14:07For the rest of my life
14:08A farmer wants a wife
14:10Yeah
14:11A farmer does want a wife
14:12Yeah
14:14Yeah
14:15I go my way
14:16Back in the saddle again
14:19Welcome

14:27Well welcome
14:28You're ready for dating, huh?
14:29I am, yeah
14:30Life begins when you step outside your comfort zone
14:33Yeah
14:34I hope you're going to feel alive today
14:35Hopefully I am
14:36I would be very slow going up to someone
14:38Then if I really like them
14:40I might do something stupid and say something stupid
14:43Hello, how are you?
14:44Unless someone maybe introduce us
14:45And then I'm fine once I'm talking
14:46I need a good wingman and they're all gone
14:49What's your usual type?
14:50Probably brunette I'd say really
14:51Okay, yeah
14:52If you had like a celebrity crush what would that be?
14:54I'd say Anne Hathaway or someone like that
14:56Oh, you want like really classic
14:58I could see Anne Hathaway, you know, helping out on a farmer
15:01I could see her shoveling silage
15:04Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't think so
15:06As she prepares to make an entrance, Ellie from the Netherlands could use a bit of Dutch courage
15:14Would you be nervous going on the date?
15:17100%
15:19Maybe I say something wrong or do something weird or I fall or the door situation
15:24Did you change the door? Make it a revolving door or something?

16:40I'm helping cows
16:49So what do you normally do for fun?
16:51I generally like go for like a few drinks
16:53Okay
16:54With friends
16:55Or like a bit of food
16:56Or like watch a movie
16:58Do you like horror movies?
17:00I do like horror movies, yeah
17:01Do you?
17:02I love horror movies
17:03Evidently, if you ask the question
17:04Yeah, yeah
17:05Quite a leading question
17:06What's your favourite horror movie?
17:08Literally
17:09I couldn't really care like what someone's job is
17:13But as long as they have like something
17:15They have like a proper graph or like
17:17That would be something that I'd really find like attractive and so on
17:21I'm a barista by day, I'm a drag artist by night
17:25What's your shtick?
17:27I guess I don't really have one
17:28I think she's just a bit of a dope
17:30And she literally just decides whatever she wants to do on the day
17:33That's it
17:34Fair
17:35I came out in transition year
17:39I think I was 15 years old or something
17:41And were your parents supportive?
17:44Not really
17:47For the first five years it was rocking for us
17:52In 2022
17:53I did a short film for Dublin Theatre Festival
17:56And at the very end of it I came out in full drag on a balcony
18:01And did a performance on the street for everyone to see
18:05Before this my parents had never seen me in drag
18:08They came to see it and they loved it
18:10And I was crying
18:11And it was just a really, really, really beautiful experience
18:15What's your drag name then?
18:16Pluto
18:17Like the planet
18:20Not plant anymore babes?
18:22Oh shut the f**k up
18:24You've been down braided
18:25Yeah, unfortunately
18:27You're just, what is it?
18:29A dwarf planet
18:30A dwarf planet
18:31Mhmm
18:35You seem to be getting less and less nervous
18:42And I seem to be getting more and more nervous
18:44Oh yeah
18:45No, it's not me
18:46What are you nervous about?
18:47It's not me
18:48Take a sip of your wine
18:49Cheers to our day
18:50Yes
18:51What about when you were standing up there?
18:53Did you have any preference?
18:54You have to be straight for me
18:56I'm not going to say anything just for you
18:59You're not going to say anything
19:00Well I can say it
19:01I wanted it to be you
19:02Really?
19:03Okay
19:04Do you think you're a good date?
19:08Err, yeah
19:09Would that be, does that sound too cocky?
19:12And what are you working at now?
19:13I'm a presenter of a giveaway show
19:15We raffle off cars, cash, holidays
19:19Different things like that to people
19:20It's a cool thing to be a part of
19:21100%
19:22And you enjoy it clearly
19:23Yeah
19:24Yeah
19:25We went from doing a draw a month
19:26To a draw a week
19:27To now we're five days of the week
19:28Every single week
19:29And I've quit my job in the bank
19:30And this is what I do full time
19:32What do you do actually?
19:34I work with adults with special needs
19:36And are you in a big hospital
19:37Or are you in like
19:38I'm in like residential settings
19:39So it's kind of about
19:40Integrating them into community
19:41And stuff like that
19:42Oh is it? Yeah
19:43I just think people who work in healthcare
19:44Are the nicest people ever
19:45Oh
19:46I find that to me
19:47That's the most attractive thing ever
19:49To know like
19:50Did you always know you wanted to
19:51Do something like
19:52I always kind of knew
19:53Like I've got family members
19:55With disabilities
19:56Oh okay
19:57I grew up around people
19:58With disabilities
19:59So I'm always like
20:01Trying to help
20:02And like
20:03When it comes to discrimination
20:04And stuff like that
20:06Even from a young age
20:07I got frustrated
20:08The people at the top
20:10Making decisions on people
20:11They literally
20:13They don't know
20:14They've never met
20:15Wouldn't put the effort in to meet
20:16And
20:17They're failing them
20:18I went back to college
20:19As a mature student
20:20In September
20:21So
20:22I was kind of like
20:23I just want to
20:24Be more educated
20:25I'm climbing that ladder
20:27I want to set a standard
20:28For how it should be done
20:29And it's like
20:30You know what
20:31I am
20:32I am meant to be here
20:33We're both lucky
20:34We're both blessed
20:35To be able to say
20:36That we actually enjoy
20:37What we do
20:38As long as we surround ourselves
20:39With good company
20:40And like
20:41Happy and healthy
20:42I literally just bring it back
20:43To basics
20:44And gratitude
20:45I wanted somebody
20:46Who has a positive outlook
20:47And I find very much like that
20:48Yeah
20:49So tell me this
20:51If you were ever going to go on a double date
20:52Yeah
20:53Would you want to bring like
20:54A friend or a family member
20:55That's really good with dating
20:56Alongside you?
20:57Well no
20:58Because they'd make me look really bad
21:00You know
21:01What if they fall for them at the table?
21:03Like no
21:04Yeah but I feel like they give you really good tips
21:06No I'm far too proud for that
21:07Okay
21:08No
21:09I'm going to do the opposite
21:10I thought of my own
21:11I thought of my own
21:12When I first saw you and your friend
21:15I was like
21:16Oh that one's a pretty boy
21:17He can't be for me
21:18You give me pretty boy vibes like
21:20Really?
21:21You see I get that a lot
21:22Do you yeah?
21:23Yeah but I don't get that
21:24People do have a tendency to judge a book by its cover and
21:29Listen I'm one of them
21:31We all do that
21:32However I've been proven many many times wrong so
21:35Don't be judging
21:36Don't be judging
21:40You need to get rid of the nerves
21:41Are you nervous?
21:42Are you?
21:43Of course I'm nervous
21:44Do I not come across as nervous?
21:46No I think you're very self
21:48You're very confident I'd say
21:52So how long have you been single?
21:53Um
21:54I've been single a good way
21:56Like I went through a little phase where I'd date people and I'd refuse to be their girlfriend
22:00Because if the conversation came up but you'd never say yes or no
22:03The conversation would come up and I'd put it off
22:06When I was younger I feel like I just was a bit like much emotionally
22:11I was very like my highs were really high and my downs were really low
22:15So yeah boyfriends usually got like the back end of that
22:19I'm not as insecure as I used to be
22:24Like I definitely feel like I'm more willing to be like
22:27Not a bitch
22:28Shut up
22:30I've got a daughter
22:31She's uh
22:32She's turned four in May
22:33Oh God
22:35We were separated like before Covid
22:38Do you share weekends and stuff like that then?
22:40Yeah
22:41Yeah yeah
22:42If he's got like a good relationship and stuff
22:44It sounds like a book
22:45We never became exes because of bad terms
22:48We were just very young
22:50When I had my daughter that responsibility changed up
22:53You realise you're going to have to sacrifice a part of yourself for something that's more important than you
22:57Have you ever dated anybody with a kid?
22:59Um yeah like I dated someone with three kids
23:02How did you find that?
23:04Gramson bother me like
23:06Really?
23:07I would expect if you have a child the child's more important than your personal life I would imagine like
23:13Yeah the problem that usually comes up is you can't be as impulsive
23:16You have to plan things like a couple of weeks in advance
23:20It just means I'm less of an option for a lot of people
23:24People don't want to say oh you having a kid is a problem
23:28Whereas for the parent
23:30It's much easier just to know that that's a problem so we don't get this far in the first place
23:34I consider myself quite impulsive as well
23:36Yeah I like a bit of adventure and someone like
23:38Yeah it's organised adventure
23:40It can be adventure and spontaneous just let me know the time and the place
23:43Mmm yeah
23:53I don't know if we're vibing that well
23:55Really? Okay
23:57Yeah and I kind of feel like he's made some comments that are like shooting me down almost
24:01Like what comment?
24:03It's hard to tell but when we first met he was like oh are we drinking and I was like yeah I have a porn star martini
24:08And then the bartender was like would you like a porn star and he was like no not five minutes in
24:13Like okay judgey
24:17What do you think Hanson's date should know about you?
24:21That I'm the only one allowed to be mean to him
24:26Very important
24:28Sorry that took a minute
24:30You're fine
24:31I'll have to get the beef to support the farmers
24:38My dad's a farmer actually
24:40Is he?
24:41That's why they put us together
24:43Pink farmer
24:44Do you ever think of taking over from your dad?
24:46No no I have four brothers and one of my brothers wants to do that so he's like my younger brother
24:51I have four sisters
24:52Are you serious?
24:54I'd like to meet definitely a gentleman
24:57Someone that is very positive that knows what he wants
25:00I'm coming to that age now I'm 32 so
25:03I want to find someone you know
25:05The one hopefully
25:06I've had two three year relationships
25:09The first girl was from the UK
25:11And she moved back
25:13And the second girl was from Canada
25:15But she was always going to go back so
25:17We kind of all we were always prepared for that
25:20Still wasn't easy when it happened
25:22I've been picking the wrong types of girls probably to settle down with
25:26They're not from Ireland
25:28Maybe if I got the finger out and put a ring on the finger or something you know
25:32But it didn't happen anyway and that's where we are now
25:37Have you ever tried a Tinder?
25:39I did yeah
25:40How did it go?
25:41Not good obviously
25:43You kind of just couldn't be bothered chatting to them
25:46I can't be bothered telling everyone what my favourite colour is
25:48Sorry I should have asked, is it green?
25:50It's green
25:51What do you think my favourite colour is?
25:53Blue
25:55We're absolutely perfect for each other
25:57Actually my friend Laura she was saying she was like
25:59Ellie I bet you he's going to be a farmer
26:03Did you tell them that you like gingers or something?
26:06I actually said I love freckles
26:09Oh Jesus I love freckles
26:11What did you say? I love a foreigner
26:13I said I like brunette
26:15Yeah that's what I said
26:17Did you ever take you to Red Hat?
26:19Once I think yeah, once but I thought it was my sister still
26:22Do you ever go charity shopping?
26:30Say what?
26:33Charity shopping
26:37Thrift shopping
26:41Okay
26:42I imagine you do
26:43Where do you like to go thrift shopping?
26:48So I like to go thrift shopping all over Dorada
26:52We have the best thrift shops in Ireland, swear to God
26:55And you get some really nice stuff for sure
27:00And you're also like helping charity
27:02And like you're not adding to the fast fashion you know
27:05Why are you going to like slate me for being like a fast fashion queen?
27:13No
27:16Here we are, politics
27:18Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
27:20It's against policy babes
27:25Anyway, anyway, moving on
27:29Um
27:35Well
27:49Oh, I think
27:50What's the crack?
27:52That's too bad then
27:54How are you getting on?
27:55Good, how are you getting on?
27:57He's a lovely fella like
27:59Oh no, you give me that
28:01Do you know what, I don't know
28:03It could go either way after a minute
28:04He'd probably be the type of fella
28:05I'd look that and I'd go
28:06Oh you're a fuckboy
28:07And scroll left
28:08Yeah, yeah
28:09I wouldn't even think
28:10To give him a bit of hello or nothing
28:11Even if I thought he was attractive
28:13I thought your own was a bit mean
28:14Yeah
28:15But did you think the same thing?
28:16No, I didn't
28:18I'm not going to lie
28:19I knew exactly what you were thinking
28:20So in my head
28:21I was just like
28:22Hope he's wrong, hope he's wrong
28:24Like I had my preference
28:26What about you?
28:27He's so sweet
28:28Oh, I see
28:29He's such a creepypitude

28:34Yeah, she's lovely
28:35Why wouldn't the sandwich go crack?
28:36Like beautiful fella
28:37Absolutely

28:39Oh, is he?
28:43I better go back here, enjoy
28:44Bye
28:54So do you play any sports or anything like that?
28:56Not really any sports
28:57Like I love to walk
28:59Like I walk everyday
29:00Like I like to be outside anyways, you know
29:03What would be an ideal day for you?
29:05Have a picnic somewhere
29:06Ross Gasto
29:07That would be amazing
29:08So this little island
29:09It's like
29:10Probably an hour
29:11On a boat
29:12He has to be rowing
29:14Because I don't know how
29:15I tried it
29:16And it just goes everywhere
29:17I'm not good at it
29:18I love going out for a good fancy dinner
29:22There's a hotel in Clarny
29:24The Europe
29:25And it's like heaven on earth
29:27It's just unbelievable
29:28Like it's on the lake
29:29And you can row there
29:30Like
29:31You can do a notebook style rowing date
29:34So I do a bit of rowing now actually
29:39Oh, do you?
29:40Yeah
29:41Where do you do that?
29:42Clarny
29:43Yeah, they do it at the Ross
29:44They do
29:45Did you go to the regatta?
29:46Huh?
29:47Regatta is a rowing race
29:48I always see it actually
29:50Like I always go with my friend to the lake
29:52And we walk down to Ross Gasto
29:53And we go for a walk in the park
29:55And I'm like
29:56Look they're rowing
29:57And we're videoing it
29:58Maybe you were in the boat
29:59I'm definitely in the video

30:03Yeah
30:04How are you saying?
30:05Yeah
30:16How are we doing?
30:17Yeah, you're good
30:21Let me take a law key
30:25Yeah, it's what I expected
30:29Thank you
30:34Yeah
30:40Hello
30:41Hello
30:42How are we?
30:43Card machine or?
30:44Definitely card machine
30:46Perfect, so how are we going to do this?
30:48I'll cut you
30:49You
30:52How do you feel about him paying the bill?
30:54Oh, I loved it
30:55Thank you, sweetheart
30:58You're more than welcome
31:01I thought he was going to offer to me
31:03Without being bad
31:04I kind of thought like
31:05Ah, fuck it
31:06Like, why not?
31:10Okay, we might give it a second
31:12Holy shit
31:13I'll get you an umbrella
31:14Hold on a second
31:15Just hold on there one second
31:16Would you like to see each other again?
31:31No
31:32No
31:33Thank you, Alex
31:36Cheers
31:37See ya
31:40Sometimes you're just not compatible with people
31:42And there's nothing wrong with that
31:46Yeah
31:47I'm not going to be friends with someone from Toronto either
31:49Like
31:50Oh shit
31:51Over
31:52Are you kidding me?
31:53Finglet
31:54No, I'm kidding
31:55I love you Finglet
31:56Mwah
31:57See ya
31:58Lovely meeting you
31:59See ya
32:00See you
32:01Pluto just got cancelled
32:03No, Pluto will never get cancelled
32:05Don't even try it
32:09I think that boy should consider himself very lucky
32:12That he was not sitting in front of Pluto
32:15Because Miss Plutinka
32:17Would have eaten him for lunch
32:40I'm not as nervous now
32:42Thank God
32:43You were right
32:45He is a farmer
32:46Is he?
32:47Is he Tinder?
32:53How's everything going?
32:54Great, yeah, she's lovely
32:55Yeah?
32:56She's lovely, yeah, she's really nice
32:57Oh, that's great
32:58She's a farmer's daughter
32:59Is that your background as well?
33:00Yeah, I'm a farmer, yeah
33:01Okay
33:02Yeah, so
33:03It always helps
33:04When they know the crack
33:05Yeah
33:06She's local as well, which is great
33:07That's awesome
33:08Save a lot of diesel
33:09Yeah
33:10He's actually from Calora Glen
33:11Fuck off
33:12I can't believe you went all the way up to Dublin
33:14And you met someone
33:15Fuck off
33:16It's probably better than I expected
33:18Because it's very natural
33:20Great
33:21Oh, yay
33:22So how are you finding Dublin?
33:26Yeah, I love it
33:27Like, so I work city centre
33:28But I live further out
33:29Like, Tal is quite quiet
33:30Okay
33:31So I've got a bit of a mix
33:32And then every time I want to go home
33:34Like, I stay with my grandparents when I'm at home
33:37Like
33:38And do you mind me asking
33:39Why are you with your grandparents?
33:41So my mum and dad split up when I was, like, 19
33:44And then, like, I don't have any relationship with my dad since
33:48Like
33:49Yeah, fair, fair
33:50But, like, listen
33:51It's grand, I
33:52I've got great siblings
33:53I've got a great mum
33:54When it comes to Jane
33:56I think I cut people off real easy
33:58If I hear one thing I don't like
33:59I'm just like
34:00Oh, that's it
34:01Anger problems really trigger me
34:04Like, I'm quite upset easy
34:06By, like, shouting
34:07And, like
34:08People throwing things
34:09And stuff like that
34:10You're the oldest of what?
34:12I'm the eldest of four
34:14So there's me
34:15I've got two other sisters
34:16And one brother
34:17I'm the eldest
34:18So I remember a bit more
34:19I'm the only sister that's single
34:22Like, they're
34:23I'm sitting watching them
34:24We're, like, partners
34:25And, like, they've got a couple of kids
34:26And, like
34:27I'm really happy for them
34:29But sometimes I do get
34:30Like, a little bit jealous
34:33What about you?
34:34Are you close to your parents?
34:35Or?
34:36Like, I'm really close to my father
34:37My mum passed away
34:38When I was young
34:39I'm really sorry about that
34:40Yeah, it's all good
34:41Like, yeah
34:42It happens to so many people
34:43You kind of have to just accept it
34:46Did you think going through that
34:47Changed you a little bit?
34:48Maybe
34:49It probably stemmed my dark sense of humour
34:51Because
34:52You kind of, like
34:53Have to just take a look at a situation
34:55Like, I'm not going to feel sorry for myself
34:56Do you know what I mean?
34:57So, I mean
34:58You have a laugh about these things
34:59And you just move on
35:00Because, I mean
35:01You can't change it
35:04I'm not too bad at the
35:06Steak diners myself
35:08Oh, you can cook?
35:09Amazing
35:10About four dishes
35:12Three, four dishes
35:13So, you've got, like, staples
35:14A steak
35:15Skelly bolognese
35:16A curry
35:17And then honestly
35:18Just a microwave pizza
35:19You said Weebix?
35:21Just an oven pizza
35:22And a Weebix
35:23Jesus
35:24I don't know where I heard that
35:25The K Weebix
35:26I grew up on Weebix
35:27Did you?
35:28You're wrong
35:29It made sense
35:30I didn't have anybody else to cook for me
35:31I was like, in the morning
35:32Like, what do I have for breakfast?
35:33Heard ass in struggling
35:34Can't start with the dark humour now
35:36Can I?
35:37I love it
35:38I love about dark humour
35:40So, we can go dark humour if you want
35:42No, I did not have
35:44The conventional breakfast
35:46And whatever
35:47I could muster up myself
35:51I live with my mum
35:52My dad passed away a few years ago
35:55So, it's just me and mum really
35:57So, you kind of took over then
35:58Yeah, I'd be fifth generation farmer now
36:00That's nice
36:01To keep going
36:02That's probably what your dad wanted as well
36:04Exactly, yeah
36:05My mum says I've left a load of good girls go, like
36:09And I have, like, in fairness
36:10And I was happy out being single
36:13And I didn't want anyone tying me down
36:15I'm a bit more mature now
36:17And I respect her
36:18Her giving out to me
36:19It's for my own good
36:20She wants me to meet someone
36:21So, I'll be bringing my mother to all the dates
36:27Are you in Clarnay long?
36:29Seven years now
36:30Seven years?
36:31Yeah
36:32So, do you miss home now?
36:34Do you think you'll ever go back?
36:36No, I'll never go back
36:37Oh
36:38No
36:39I have a lovely family
36:40I have nice friends there
36:41Yeah
36:42I'll be staying close contact
36:44But I would never go back
36:45It's just
36:46I feel like Ireland is home
36:47Is it?
36:48It's just a feeling
36:49I would say I'm a totally different person
36:51Right now compared to back then
36:53They say that
36:54Your personality actually changed
36:56When you speak a different language
36:57So, when you're bilingual
36:59So, when I speak in English
37:01You actually have a different personality
37:03When you speak in Dutch
37:04Tell me more about the life coaching
37:06So, I come to you, right?
37:07And I book an appointment
37:08And I say
37:09Yeah
37:10Hey Lee, I want to be happier
37:11I'm very happy
37:12Well, we're more kind of like figuring out
37:14What kind of goals do you have?
37:15So, what do you want to choose?
37:16Because I want to be a farmer
37:18I'm farming at the moment
37:20And I want to stay at it
37:21How can I be happier?
37:22What will you tell me?
37:23You would be like
37:24Hey, what are you not happy about?
37:26So, I'm not happy because I'm single
37:28Well, so then you go more into relationships
37:30And say, okay, what can we do there?
37:32So, what can we do?
37:34Well, I'm not a relationship coach
37:37So, I have to go to someone else
37:39And spend more money
37:40Oh my god, it's a money making record
37:42No, no
37:43Like, you can help in some kind of ways
37:45Well, you're helping, in fairness
37:46You're helping him
37:47You're going on a deal
37:48It's just about being here
37:49Yeah, thanks very much
37:50There you go
37:51You're well, but how much do I owe?
37:52I've got one brother
37:58Who's a year and a half older than me
38:00And he's engaged
38:01And he's got a child
38:02And people are like
38:03Do you not feel pressured?
38:04Like, you're so close in age
38:05And I'm like, no
38:06We're both on different paths
38:07Yeah, I literally think that's the exact same thing
38:09It'll happen for everyone
38:10Like, as and when it happens for them
38:12Yeah
38:13I'm at that stage where I'm like
38:14I'm happy with me
38:15I am
38:16But I would also like to be happy with another person too
38:19Do you know that kind of way?
38:20I get it
38:21I think I'm at an age now
38:23Where I'd happily meet somebody
38:24I don't want to get in another relationship
38:26For three or four years
38:27And it not work out
38:28And then I'm 32 or 33
38:30And going back into the whole single thing again
38:33So what do you get up to when you're not working?
38:36Well, I bought a surfboard there
38:38Oh yeah?
38:39Last year
38:40Trying to impress a guy
38:41Oh yeah
38:42I invested in that surfboard
38:44And then we went surfing one day
38:47And I obviously cannot
38:49Cannot surf
38:50Yeah
38:51It's in my room
38:53It's in my room
38:54My best date ever
38:56I used to write with a girl from America
38:58Okay
38:59Like we met when she was in Ireland on exchange
39:01Studying in Dublin when I was studying in Dublin
39:03Okay
39:04Decided we'd try the long distance thing
39:05And when she went back home
39:07I planned a trip for her birthday
39:08That we'd fly to Paris and meet each other
39:10We had a boat trip going all around Paris
39:13And stopped coming up to the Eiffel Tower
39:15And all the staff were singing happy birthday to her
39:16As the lights were coming twinkling on
39:18She was just crying her eyes out
39:20So that was probably my best
39:21I want to still try and top that
39:23The most effort like I've ever really shown
39:26Is maybe a picnic down the road at the lake
39:29You're not obviously being treated right then
39:31You deserve like everything you're looking for
39:33Do you know what I mean?
39:34If I brought you on a date just for Herobus
39:35If I get lucky enough to get a second date
39:37I'm confident I can definitely show you better time
39:39Than some of the guys have done
39:41Do you want to hit it?
39:49Yeah
39:50Go and give it a bill
39:51Give it a bill
39:52Okay it worked
39:53Did you call someone in the toilet actually?
39:55I was going to ask you that
39:56I did not
39:57I had to call my friend because I promised her
39:59The only one I want to ring now is the fellow milk in the clothes
40:01Do you want to check up on him?
40:03Yeah I know he's 100%
40:06Would you be able for work now?
40:08If I'm able to do that
40:10Can you work like?
40:11I can work
40:12With strong hands
40:13Yeah you have strong hands
40:16She was brunette and she was tall and she was sound
40:19Delighted
40:21Delighted
40:22I'm eating all this by the way
40:24You should eat something
40:25No you have to eat it
40:26I have to bulk up a bit
40:27If I'm going to take on your brothers
40:33Do you think she fancies you?
40:35I don't know
40:36She definitely enjoyed my company anyway
40:38So I would be hopeful
40:40Thanks for making it a great day
40:42Yeah it was actually a great day
40:43Yeah it was brilliant yeah
40:45It was brilliant yeah

42:30Of what you're going to come in now

42:32I'm sure you thought it the worst
42:33You thought it the best case scenario
42:34We're doing alright?
42:35Yeah
42:36I think that they'll know
42:40I don't know
42:41I could be
42:42I'm going to be pretty clear with all that stuff
42:44I'm hoping that I'll have an idea of what they're going to say before the date ends
42:47Thank you so much
42:50You're so welcome
42:51Oh this looks so pretty

43:05Have you been on many blind dates before?
43:06Never
43:07I don't think blind dates are done anymore
43:08No I don't think so
43:09With the internet and stuff like
43:10Yeah well I think that's shit like because
43:13We do things with Tinder or whatever like so I like to do
43:16I don't think blind dates are done anymore
43:18No I don't think so
43:19With the internet and stuff like
43:21Yeah well I think that's shit like because
43:23We do things with Tinder or whatever like so I like
43:26I don't think anyone's made a love for their life on Tinder
43:28No it does happen
43:29Yeah it happens but I think those people are
43:32The what do you call them?
43:34Exception
43:36Mmm not for real that's it
43:38Finishing each other time this is already
43:42Did you initially think that you guys were the ones that were paired?
43:45No
43:46No
43:47No

44:17Yeah listen you've got a bit of something to say
44:20You know what's going on up there a little bit
44:23I think the fact that he's a girl dad
44:25You'd like to think a fella that is raising another female
44:29Will treat females a certain way
44:31I'm starting to see more and more when we were matched up
