A man who says he was 'tricked' into appearing on a popular TV dating show has revealed what it goes on behind the scenes.
The popular show First Dates Ireland has returned to Irish TV for its eighth season. The dating show on RE2 sees two people go on a blind date at the First Dates Restaurant in Dublin, and at the end of the date the couple sit down together for an interview and decide if they would like to see each other again.
But have you ever wondered what it is like being on this type of show and what goes on behind the scenes? 21-year-old Joe Costigan from Crosshaven in Cork was tricked into applying for the show but is now "delighted" that he did it.
