ITV series Blind Date is being rebooted by Disney Plus
Blind Date, the iconic British dating show which aired in the 1980s, is coming back. Disney Plus has announced that the "ultimate dating series" is being "reimagined for a contemporary audience". However, it is said the new show will have "unique, innovative and head-turning format twists". NEW 🚨 Disney+ are rebooting #BlindDate in their first step into UK based reality TV! The new format will see the iconic wall return with 3 blind-daters behind, but the daters will now spend a summer living together… with potential new partners always lurking behind the wall 👀 The original Blind Date, hosted by Cilla Black, originally ran on Saturday nights from 1985 to on ITV. The show was rebooted once before, in 2017, on Channel 5 and was presented by Paul O'Grady. The show's format saw three single people, who were behind a curtain, introduced to the audience. They were then asked a question by another individual, who could hear but not see them, who then picked one to go on a date with. The couple then picked an envelope naming their destination and in the following episode, the couple's date was shown. The new Disney Plus series will still feature the blind date aspect but will also have a new format. Explaining the show, Disney Plus said: "The ultimate dating series Blind Date is back - bigger, better, and bolder than ever. "The new series will begin in a secret Blind Date location, where contestants must choose between three potential suitors, hidden from view behind the legendary Blind Date wall, the only thing standing between them and their potential true love just metres away. "With a host of unique, innovative and head-turning format twists, our daters will see if forever love can truly grow as they spend the summer living together but potential new partners are always lurking behind the wall." Sean Doyle, executive director of Unscripted at Disney Plus, added: "Blind Date is a brilliant opportunity to bring everyone's favourite dating show to a large scale with the potential to resonate with a whole new generation." Following the announcement, fans of the show took to social media with excitement. However, many were keen for the show to keep its original format in the reboot. One said: "Needs to be ITV Saturday night, but don't mess with the format, going to spoil it keep it the original format." Recommended reading: Another added: "Is this a wind-up? They've turned a classic show into a Love Island style version..." A third said: "No need to mess with the format, when you mess with established formats, that's when they fail. Blind Date mixing in reality TV element is not needed." Production will begin on Blind Date later this year, with further details set to be announced in due course.
