This show may sound really terrible from its title and in poor taste, but to start with, just in the opening intro along, they remove the “Un” from the title.
The reason for the name is 'cause the people who are labelled as undateable right from birth, are given the help and services to find someone for them.
What’s the show about?
Getting a date is not easy for some people, let alone finding someone to have a relationship with. When you add a physical or mental disability into the equation, the task becomes seemingly impossible. This programme follows several extraordinary singletons as they enter the dating circuit searching for love. From a stand-up comic with Tourette’s to an amateur poet with a learning disability and a skateboarder with a facial disfigurement, they enter the world of blind dates, matchmakers and speed dating. With the help of dating agencies, ‘The Undateables’ explores the realities of looking for love in an image-obsessed world in which first impressions are often used to make snap judgments.
This show is honestly the most heartwarming and just downright adorable show. It really does make you feel all warm and fluffy, as well as making you feel just that little bit more positive about the world.
