The shocking moment leaves the girls gobsmacked, and Melissa - who keeps her light on for him - struggles to watch.

Elsewhere on the episode, contestant Aisling describes her ideal man as having “the intelligence of Barack Obama combined with the musicality of Gary Barlow.”

Aisling goes on to tell Paddy she loves a man to have a talent like playing the piano or the tin whistle, which she plays and goes on to give Paddy and the girls a tune.

Of course, never one to let an opportunity pass by, host Paddy breaks out his best Irish dance moves on the show.

Meanwhile, viewers see the return of Ellie’s infectious seal laugh.

When Grace explains how much she loves a celebration, Paddy gets the fish out and  Grace, a vegetarian, can't hide her shock.
