Nov 1994 LWT Blind Date Gorgeous George, Count Roberto, Pat, & Jilly

[@gallitron7803]

R.I.P. to our Graham - the voice over guy, Graham Skidmore. Passed aged 90.

[@rantsandfaves]

No way! I loved his voice

[@SummerBayJournal]

Wow a Saturday night show with literally a 6 second announcement from the announcer and then straight into the show. In today's world you'd get the announcer waffling on about what's coming on later and tomorrow and then finally announcing the show that's about to come on.... then you'd get an annoying sponsorship advert for whoever is sponsoring the show.... then you'd get a preview of "coming up on tonight's blind date".... and then FINALLY theme music would start. I miss how much simpler and more relaxing it was to watch tv when you weren't bombarded with information all the time.

[@ketchupkatsup9805]

the banter between Cilla and Roberto is gold. RIP you legend!

[@conorsmith8551]

Cilla was great!! Miss her

[@imafa9ry]

Loved cilla- such a personality !!

[@amarsbarr]

The hairstyles, the big baggy clothing.... 1994 it's amazing how much everything changes throughout the decades. Fashion, technology, brick mobile phones, cars, politics....

Jilly's outfit looks like current fashion

One of my neighbours always reminded me of cilla, she looked a bit like her, don’t think she liked when I called her cilla once joking 🤣

I am. She should get what she deserves.

[@anneonimous9306]

She chose him because she was ordered to. The candidates are not allowed to choose who they want. The whole show is rigged and scripted. An undercover journalist went on the show once and found it all out.

My family and I used to guess what colour she would be wearing each week. Fond memory :)

So smart she looked gorgeous

She picked the wrong guy!!! So obvious! But it was fun to watch. I liooove dating shows!

[@estherelufowoju3166]

This just brought back memories, almost in tears. Need to get my son to watch this. This was my young late brothers favourite show, sad to know even Ceila is gone. This use to make our saturdays. I don't watch TV anymore but u-tube videos, decided to search for blind date and saw this it has made my evening and am gonna go back to every single episode documented.

[@colinshomepage1214]

Still cannot believe our Cilla has passed, I think she would of wanted to go early though because she hated getting old.. Queen of Saturday night TV, not like the trash we have now

[@coringraham1294]

[@salmaabdullahgb]

[@Embracing01]

No nitpicking either and judging someone because they are different. Today we have dating sites and social media to meet someone special, yet they are utterly useless unless you happen to stand out. Too much competition where, if you are really just an average bloke (doesn't matter for women as men will go for anyone) with not much to offer, ie don't have some 4 figure salary in a fancy job, your interests don't consist of weekends away backpacking, sky diving or whatever, you haven't been to Peru or some other far flung remote part of the world, don't drive a fancy car (or don't drive at all, which I've heard is a big turn off with women), and whatever else is on their tick list, then you really don't stand a chance. That's before looks, so now if you don't have a beard and tattoos all over your arms and legs and aren't over 6 ft tall, then you're chances of getting a reply are slim.

[@pkk639]

Did the contestants know the questions beforehand? If I had to think of a corny response to their questions off the top of my head, I'd totally balls it up 😬🥴

[@jaynestag95]

Yeah they do...😊

[@ramblingrob4693]

Of course they did its not LIVE

[@Danathon80]

Contestant 1 gutted that someone stole his act and did it better than him. Contestant 2 owned the show.

[@maekelovlycheski8520]

I thought this guy was really cool and he deserved to win the date, he stole the show!

[@kierno9468]

bring back this show don't like take me out

[@89awcock]

They did bring the show back it was on Channel 5 hosted by Paul O'Grady as he was a lifelong friend of Cilla Black I thought Paul did a great job but he can't bring back Cilla Black.

[@sh-hg4eg]

Anything they bring back now is ruined with the shoe horning of politics, "celebs" with zero personality and quotas.

[@hand587]

I wonder how they found people who are so confident on TV! They all 'get' the format, are all up for a laugh, and even have some good puns and jokes. I imagine a lot of people would get very nervous and shy once they got in front of the cameras.

[@Embracing01]

Probably because half of em were actually actors. I doubt they got some joe average off the street.

The woman are so feminine, the 80's 90's so sweet, men clean shaven, kind, caring, real gentlemen. Growing up back then was so much fun everyone go along, people could take a joke and people were not serious it was simple. You didn't need a lot of money to have a good time. Feels like a different world. People are so aggressive nowadays. Technology has destroyed us socially. It was great back then people didn't have mobile phones. It's a serious problem because mobiles are keeping people so busy that in worst cases people are living as strangers in homes glued to the addictive devices. If nothing is done and fast (this is an emergency) earth will be so lonely people will forget their very purpose for existence.
