Would you or your friends be up for it?

Are you single? Are you unlucky in love? Are you looking for your soulmate? Do you want to go on national television to try and change your status from ‘It’s Complicated’ to ‘In A Relationship?’

The reality show has been a huge hit this year with characters like ‘bolloxed’ Ciaran, the Ass Man, Paddy, the cute couple Paddy and Lauren among the standouts.
