Celebrity First Dates is back with some more famous faces looking for love.
The Only Way Is Essex star Jess Wright, TV presenter Esther Rantzen and Gogglebox’s Scarlett Moffatt will appear on the new series, set to air later this year.
The ladies will be joined by paralympian Will Bayley for the four celebrity special editions.
And fans of the standard version needn’t worry, as there’s 20 hour-long episodes of the non-celebrity format to come too.
First Dates executive producer Nicola Lloyd said Channel 4 were ‘hugely excited’ about Celebrity First Dates.
‘It never seems to matter who walks through the doors of the First Dates restaurant, regardless of status we’re all vulnerable human beings and our celebrity series confirms this.’
She added that viewers should expect some ‘awkward encounters’ as the celebs – who are used to more glitzy venues – go on blind dates at the Paternoster Chop House restaurant.
Lloyd said: ‘We’re proud to be able to maintain the emotional integrity of the series through these four unique celebrity episodes.
‘Be prepared for some romantic matches alongside a few awkward encounters.’
Celebrity First Dates first aired last year as part of Channel 4’s Stand Up To Cancer campaign with Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter and singer Alexandra Burke taking part.
