When did First Dates Hotel start on Channel 4?
The fourth series of First Dates Hotel is back on our screens and continues TONIGHT (September 26) on Channel 4 at 9pm.
First Dates Hotel works on a similar basis to the First Dates show - where 'scientists' pair up those looking for love using their mutual interests and personalities to match them.
The potential lovebirds have dinner at the hotel - if they want to continue seeing each other, they can stay at the hotel another night and are sent off on a romantic date the next day. If not, then they are sent packing and return to the UK.
