There was plenty of agreement…
It’s that time of the week, and First Dates has finished. Leaving us to bask in all the glorious awkwardness that unfolded on our screens.
It wasn’t the most successful of shows with plenty of applicants claiming that they’ll remain friends after the show… we completely believe them when they say that obviously.
Lisa, a midwife from Limerick, and Leigh from Galway were the the couple who stood out on the night.
When introducing herself to the camera, Lisa stated that she rarely went on a date without knowing a lot about the person, and christened herself the “Queen Creeper”.
A statement that struck a chord with some..

But while the pair agreed to go on a second date, it just wasn’t to be, we don’t know how we’re going to break it to people…
