First Dates Ireland Returns for Series Three

First Dates Ireland Returns to RTÉ2 for A BRAND NEW SERIES

January 5, 2018

We're baaack!

The tables are set, the champagne is on ice, and the doors of the First Dates restaurant are ready to open up and welcome in a whole new set of singletons looking for love.

After two successful series, First Dates Ireland will be returning to RTÉ2 on Tuesday, January 9th, 2018.

In its new time slot – Tuesdays at 9.30pm – series three will be packed with unexpected revelations, drama and diversity. We’ll meet Marilyn Monroe fans and Mormons, surfer dudes and a male stripper. There'll be teen heartthrobs, flirty thirty-somethings and seductive seniors, everyone from student freshers to fresh faced septuagenarians.

 

Our dapper Croatian Maitre D’ Mateo will also welcome the restaurant’s first transsexual dater, first deaf dater and a brand new staff member in the form of charming waiter, Pete.

 

Sit back, take a deep breath and prepare to have your heart stolen!
