Watch the awkward moment My Mum, Your Dad dater tries to pull Davina McCall – and shocked kids find out show twist
ONE of the My Mum, Your Dad daters has his eye on Davina McCall rather than the women in the house he is meant to be dating.
A first look at tonight’s debut episode sees cheeky dad Roger, 58, trying to pull the show’s host instead.
The sneak peek, shared on the show’s instagram page, shows the postman from Derbyshire sitting on the sofa with his daughter, Jess, 28.
“It’s been 37 years since I’ve been on a date or had to try and impress somebody,” Roger confesses.
He then adds: “Is Davina off the table?”
Roger has previously said he is going on the show to “get some confidence” after being single for the past 18 months following the death of his wife.
The first-look clip then sees Davina arriving to greet the sons and daughters of the daters, where she reveals the show’s big twist.
“I have got a bit of a confession to make.
“Oh my stomach’s just gone,” responds one of the lads.
Davina then shows them the surveillance room, explaining they will be watching their parents’ every move – and they will have no idea their kids are spying on them.
“You get to watch everything that your parents do during their time in the retreat,” the host explains.
“I’m covering my eyes, I don’t want to see!” exclaims Karli, 20, whose 50 year-old mum Caroline is taking part in the experiment.
Viewers were excited to get their first glimpse of the show, which kicks off tonight (September 11).
“Cant wait for this !! Such a good concept,” wrote one in the comments section.
A second added: “Think I’m going to enjoy this. You are never too old to find love.”
“So exciteddddd,” chipped in a third.
