First Dates fans devastated as show bosses ‘forget’ to reveal what happened to the couples after their dates on Christmas special
Die-hard romantics were left pining for an update after Monday night’s show
FIRST Dates fans suffered the torture of an anti-climax on Monday night when Channel 4 failed to give an update on what the couples were up to now.
The show that sees singletons matched for blind dates in a swanky restaurant aired its Christmas special last night, and while usually at the end of each show viewers will get to hear how the diners’ romantic endeavours are going, the most recent episode left them in the dark.
One heartbroken viewer lamented: “My favourite bit of first dates is the end when we see if they are now together tonight that bit didn't happen.”
Another exclaimed: “Nooooo. You forgot to tell us what happened next”
While in the throes of confusion someone else tweeted: “how can I love and hate a show so much?! Why no updates on the couples?!?”

Some theorised that Channel 4 didn’t bother letting us know what happened as none of the daters had a romantic spark, with Roisin and Johnny, Sophie and Mehmet, and Mandi and Robert all saying that they’d only see each other again as friends.
One fan said: “They didn't do the catch-up thing at the end of the show. Mind you it wasn't *the* most successful episode.”
