My Mum, Your Dad

Oops got the title wrong in my first thread - have requested deletion

Starting tomorrow on itv1

“My Mum, Your Dad is a British dating reality show that is set to begin airing on ITV1 on 11 September 2023. It will be presented by Davina McCall and follows middle-aged single parents heading to a romance retreat for a second chance at love which is overseen by their children.”

From a Google for the show it appears there is already 1 season of the US called My Mom, Your Dad. So presumably the same format.

Anyone planning to watch?

Is this the show that was billed in the media as an upcoming middle aged Love Island earlier this year?

I think Martin H is too sincere / serious for Tallulah maybe?
He's so lovely, I'm worried what tomorrow's episode has in store for him.

Yes, maybe. She has said Martin M is her type and very like her ex.

I'm hoping it's just the way the clips from last night have been cut. It's not nice seeing someone obviously so genuine so upset.

I'm really not sure Martin H and Tolullah are suited, and can see her more with someone like Martin M from how she has been with him and what she has said. She's a strong woman though and no fool, and I don't think she'll stay interested if Martin M carries on the way he has been doing.

Sorry if someone’s already asked but does anyone know where davinas blouse from episode 2 is from?!

Hmm, well i and my single friends are 60+, we observe a lot of charming good looking sleazebags and give them very very big swerves these days!

Whereas in the past we've all gone for it (and how).. maybe in a few years your friends will want to spend their time and energy on something more worthwhile Theblacksheep

I actually teared up when I saw him get upset.

I did too. I’m not sure I can bear to watch tomorrow.

I think that the kids of the paired up parents go well together. Especially Paul’s daughter and Natalies son.

I feel sorry for Luke watching his dad be a slimy player. Do think he’s handling it well though.

motheroreily · 20/09/2023 06:20

I'd have preferred Natalie and Paul to go home. I think they've got all they can out of it.

I like Sharon and I agree with what she said about the intimacy workshop. But I think she should go home too. I don't think she's open to a relationship which is fine.

I feel so sorry for Luke. He sometimes has his head down when his dad is on screen.

I'm liking this show but getting a bit bored of the Martin M thing now. I'd like to see more natural conversations between the group and what they're getting up to in the day so we can judge their genuine body language with each other. People keep saying they have connections but I want to see them for myself.

Janey shouting 'next' when Roger opened the door had me in stitches.

Janey is very funny. She asked him the following morning if he'd put the bins out.

“I agree with you re Ibiza party, party, party! But he is actually my daughters friend and she says he's a really lovely guy”

I can’t say it’s come across at all to me, so I wonder what’s happened there?

Online dating is all about looks regardless of age. Better looking will always get more attention and ergo the pick of all the suitors. . . . .

Thanks @leopardandspots 😍

ilovebrie8 · 20/09/2023 08:52

I hope Martin H isn’t in for another rejection tomorrow! It looks that way…they got rid do the wrong 2 last night.
Caroline should I have gone on a date with Martin H.
What is the point of Paul and Natalie still being in they are an item now have been since early doors don’t get why they are still in.
Sharon should have possibly gone too I felt sorry for Elliott she was v off yesterday if I was him I’d give her a swerve now

ilovebrie8 · 20/09/2023 08:52

I meant today not tomorrow re Martin H! 😜

Theblacksheepandme · 20/09/2023 08:58

I'd love to know more about Sharon. She really seems quite broken. I think it's quite sad to watch. I do feel sorry for Eliott but maybe he should just give her time. She does need to start communicating with him though. She doesn't have to completely open up but meet him some bit of the way.

ClubTropicanaVIP · 20/09/2023 09:57

Theblacksheepandme · 19/09/2023 22:24

They're in their 50's. I actually thought they would have more sense.

I totally agree with @Jellykat but some women will always go for the bad guys…….hence why they now have exes and not in a genuine respectful relationship. Habits die hard though @Theblacksheepandme

Callywals · 20/09/2023 11:32

@ilovebrie8 I totally agree with you.

Me too. Moody, sullen people who won't communicate and wake up on the wrong side of the bed are a pain in the hoop.

Theblacksheepandme · 20/09/2023 14:16

I was thinking as well, it was strange when Sharon went around everyone to give them a kiss and ignoring Eliott. I think he was rightly a bit miffed by it and said something.

Theblacksheepandme · 20/09/2023 14:17

@omgsally 😂

ilovebrie8 · 20/09/2023 16:46

Sharon was off with him and it was strange @Theblacksheepandme she went round everyone and deliberately left him to last not v nice. Life's too short he should step back she is coming across as too much like hard work....

I'm starting to think like that. Eliott definitely should take a step back. I wonder if she would show more interest if he acted like he didn't care.

I think she's testing Eliott. Pushing him away subconsciously (or not) to get a reaction so she doesn't have to make the decision. It's sad really to watch.

Oh no no no. I want to see his face when she says she's been jailed 5 times. Confused

Sharon is really irritating me now. She's so serious. I think she's hard work and I feel sorry for Elliott.
