Better Date Than Never on ABC – Following the endearing and popular first series, Better Date Than Never returns with more stories of a diverse group of single love seekers as they take their first step into the dating world.
Looking for love this season will be some returning favourites who are continuing their search for that special someone, as well as some new singles ready to step into the dating world for the very first time.
Kento (25) is an I.T. worker and self-confessed geek, who hasn’t had much opportunity to meet women IRL (In Real Life). Seventh Day Adventist, Asher (22), is navigating the rulebooks of her religion and culture to find a pathway to her first ever date. Jack (21) has held back pursuing romance as he believes his Cerebral Palsy may be perceived as a burden.
While Allycia (28) has never dated but desperately wants the full fairy-tale. These new daters join returning participants Chinese International student Charles (28), transgender farmer Dianne (68), and loved up couple Liv and Ben, who found love in Series One.
With a little help from the producers, the participants launch themselves into a world they’ve always found daunting but wanted to explore.
They are matched with a potential suitor, and ready themselves to meet them on a blind date. We are with them as they experience the most important moment of their dating lives: the beginning.
From the whirlwind of speed dating, to romantic candlelight dinners and playful theme park dates, we follow our participants on the sometimes-rocky road to finding love. As their stories develop – connections will be made, hearts will break, love will blossom.
Refreshingly real, honest and diverse, Better Date Than Never is a warm-hearted series exploring the world of dating and relationships, from the creators of Love On The Spectrum.
