They've done it again - in the blind date series, they've paired someone trans with an unwitting women. Trans person then crows about how they passed.

I can't see anything about this on twitter. Anyone else heard it?

Thank you for posting wibu. I half listened during chores.
Three couples. Zoom dates.

The first couple was two men who sounded uncomfortable. In different states of sobriety and on different continents.

The middle couple, she couldn't see her date, didn’t get an opportunity to say so,?sounded really uncomfortable, and at the end gave the date 4 out of 10. I don’t remember hearing if she thought her date was male or female. Her date, Sam, seemed to love the whole process, gave the date 10 out of 10, and Sam described Samself as "queer" but Sam thought Sam passed on this date as "cis". I certainly heard that person as male. I wouldn't have registered trans from the audio. I would have thought narcissist, but what do I know.

The third couple (male/female) seemed to enoy the virtual date and discussed each person’s interests.

In this weekend’s Guardian apparently. With photos?
