First Dates is an Australian reality dating television show which premiered on the Seven Network on 3 February 2016. Narrated by Sam Mac,[2] the format is based on a British program of the same name.[3]
Premise
The program follows two strangers, who have been matched up by a relationship expert,[3] meeting for a first date at Verandah restaurant in Sydney.[4] At the end of the date, the couples are interviewed together and asked whether they would like to see each other again.[5]
During filming of the date, there are no producers or cameramen in the restaurant, to ensure the "authenticity of the date," with cameras being remotely operated.[6]
In episode seven, the series featured its first same sex date, something seen as a rarity on Australian reality shows.[7][8]
Broadcast
The eight episode series premiered on the Seven Network on 3 February 2016.[2][9]
