First Dates is coming to the SU

Fred will be there


Fred Sirieix, the oh so suave maître d’ of Channel 4’s First Dates, is coming to our SU to help you find love.

On Monday 29th February, 60 luckily bachelors and bachelorettes are being given the once in a lifetime opportunity to find bae on a blind date at Inox Dine. 30 couples will be indulged in a romantic candlelit three course meal, as they get to know each other during a night of pure decadence. There will even be a red carpet entrance for pure glamour.

Cupid

Like on First Dates, singletons will be matched up by a team of experts, making sure they find the ying to their yang. Fred, the bearded love guru, will be there to greet hopeless romantics as they arrive and see their night goes perfectly. It’s a shame that there isn’t the opportunity to go on a date with Fred himself though.

We’ve all grown accustomed to the usual anticlimax of the SU booking Z-list celebrities, but it’s unanimous that they have outdone themselves this time. If you’re not squealing at the prospect of being wooed by Fred’s dulcet Parisian tones then there must be something wrong with you.

Pure decadence

After the meal the couples can pay what they think the meal was worth and all donations will go to Sheffield RAG. But don’t worry if you don’t get to go on a date, Fred will still be making a guest appearance on the concourse at 2pm on the day, ready for selfies and swooning students. To be in with a chance of going on a date, apply here before 14th Februrary.
