The Undateables returns with some familiar faces sharing their extra special plans with loved ones for the festive season - from releasing a Christmas single, to delivering the seasonal post on time. Rock star Daniel from Brighton is busy planning the release of his latest single, while also dreaming of a girlfriend for Christmas and beyond. In Bournemouth, poet Shaine is getting in the mistletoe, in anticipation of that first ever kiss with his girlfriend Gemma. Ray, a charity worker from north London, will be spending Christmas with his new girlfriend, Christine. Ray plans a romantic date, including a festive horse and carriage ride around Richmond Park. Richard, or Lord Richard as he now prefers to be known, is planning a festive card for the new significant lady in his life - Anna. And postman Sam, from Surrey, hopes that a romantic date at Bath Christmas Market will prove the right setting for him to ask Francesca if she'll be his girlfriend.
Looking for love can be tricky, but some find it harder than others. Add disability to the equation and it can sometimes seem almost impossible. This uplifting three-part series follows the journeys of several extraordinary singletons as they enter the dating circuit in pursuit of love.
From a stand-up comedian with Tourettes and a trapeze artist with brittle bones, to a media student with Down's Syndrome, an amateur poet with a learning disability, and a skateboarder with a facial disfigurement, the series follows them as they enter the world of blind dates, matchmakers and speed dating.
With the help of Searchmate, one of the UK's leading personal introductions agencies, and Stars in the Sky, a specialist dating agency for people with learning difficulties, The Undateables explores the realities of looking for love in an image-obsessed world, where too many people make snap judgements based on first impressions - and even consider some to be 'undateable'.
