TEEN FIRST DATES RENEWED FOR SECOND SERIES ON E4

The First Dates restaurant in Manchester is to open its doors to teens aged 16-19 for a second series of Teen First Dates (20x 60 minute episodes) on E4.

Teen First Dates gives these young romantics the chance to put their phones in their pocket, escape from the pressures of social media and talk face-to-face with a potential match.

They’ll be able to put their flirting to the test, but most importantly, take a journey of self-discovery. Through their own experiences and viewpoints, the teens will explore who they are, who they want to be, and what it takes to make the perfect connection with another person.

Whilst dating can be terrifying at any age, Fred, Merlin, Cici, Grant alongside some new faces will be on hand to guide the teens through their journey step by step, helping to build their confidence and create a memorable first dating experience.

The first series aired earlier this year on E4 and was deemed a success - regularly becoming the channel's most watched show of the week.

Filming on the new series is due to begin later this year.
